musesfool @ 9:25pm: lay out two or three good hits tonight
Dear Sam,

I am trying to get you laid. It would be easier if you weren't such an angsty motherfucker. Stop being so difficult! It's sex! It's supposed to be fun! No wonder most of the porn I write is about Dean. He rarely gives me this kind of trouble. Why can't you be more like your brother?

frustratedly,

me

PS: Yes, I understand everyone you sleep with dies. I...am not breaking that streak. Um, sorry? I blame canon. Still, though. Sex! You should be less angsty about it!

Holy shit, Jane Lynch is doing commercials for X-Box in which she is in character as Sue Sylvester. And they sing "Carry On Wayward Son." And the mother is a fan of Greco-Roman wrestling (i.e., oiled half-naked men getting sweaty together).

I feel like this is some kind of crazy fannish collision. I am amused.

rivkat @ 7:49pm: Random stuff I'm thinking about
1. Is it just me, or did Legend of the Seeker kick it up a notch in the past two episodes and start decreasing the pretty:interesting ratio? (While arguably getting prettier, even!)

2. Consider, if you will, that the all-male lawyers at this Texas firm saw nothing wrong with the images appearing on their website. (Possibly triggery for sexual abuse/child abuse.)  I actually believe very strongly that we need defense lawyers who specialize in crimes for which even defending an accused is excoriated—but this isn’t the way to do it.

3. Now for something completely different. I am a technological incompetent with a CMS on my website and a planned move to a new webhost. Anybody have recommendations for cheap assistance doing the move? And by assistance, I mean: somebody to whom I could trust with my site password and have the thing moved? Because the semester is so crazy, we’re probably looking at a move in early 2010.

elke_tanzer @ 3:07pm: More blathering about Star Wars tag wrangling
Here's my first draft of notes on how I've been wrangling, which is being posted in the internal documentation for Tag Wranglers (and will be kept updated there).

OMFG.

( Long long long details... )

I am currently seeking input on how to convey the multifandom concept of "Apprentice (or Student) Dominating Master (or Teacher)" as well as "Master (or Teacher) Dominating Apprentice (or Student)"... because the concept is bigger than Star Wars. :-)

yonmei @ 10:40pm: Sunday
Where did it go, again?

oursin @ 9:14pm: Culinary

No breakfast rolls, as I was still at Grayshott on Saturday morning (mmmmm homemade muesli with blueberries....)

Today's lunch (partner did the hunting and gathering): wild Alaskan salmon fillets, baked in foil with a brushing of maple syrup and a sprinkle of crushed Bristol blend peppers and crushed chillies (I try not to assume salt as a default in any recipe, but I think that this would have been better with a little: the last time I made something similar, it was lightly smoked salmon and turned out rather better because of that, I think), served with gingery grilled halved baby courgettes, and mini-Portabello mushrooms, cut into quarter-inch slices and stirfried for 4-5 minutes, adding a sugar-salt-five spice powder mix approximately halfway through. Also some garlic bread, which partner had intended to go with last night's meal, but as that already came with rosti I thought it would be a bit much.

This week's bread: the Greenstein 100% wholemeal loaf, which for the mad variety I made half and half strong wholemeal and stoneground organic wholegrain spelt, v tasty.

elke_tanzer @ 12:50pm: Smallville Slash Archive status, WhitFic Archive status
Another perspective on the saga of the SSA: http://enderwiggin24.livejournal.com/133864.html

Short version: Yes, the archive contents will be sheltering at AO3 at some point. Now that the archivists-in-absentia problem has been dealt with, that work can begin to proceed.

<3

Also, Minotaurs was the sole-archivist for the WhitFic Archive (also Smallville-related, but separate from the SSA), and I'm connecting his Dad with the AO3 (which I expect to proceed very smoothly), so that archive will be sheltering at AO3 at some point as well.

(Yes, Minotaurs' server is still functional and DNS is still working in the meanwhile, for his fannish and nonfannish customers.)

musesfool @ 12:42pm: who got the will and the way
Writing is hard.

So I updated unfitforsociety instead, with 15 recs for November 2009:

* 3 Supernatural
* 3 crossovers
* 2 White Collar
* 2 Harry Potter
* 2 Star Trek Reboot
* 1 each Big Bang Theory, Dark Angel, and Psych

Every time I listen to the Black Keys, I wonder why they haven't been used on SPN yet (if they were, I missed it). Dean could shock Sam by listening to something that was produced after 1979, but that still sounds like it came from the early '70s. Heh.

oursin @ 5:18pm: Linkety

Virago reissues The Group by Mary McCarthy. The original critical responses ticked an awful lot of Russ boxes in their dismissal of women's writing. I am, yay, but totally boggled by this:

It was the women's submissiveness that most enraged Norman Mailer, who claimed that McCarthy's novel was fatally diminished by the fact that none of her characters has "the power or dedication to wish to force events", while conspicuously missing the point that it was precisely this enforced passivity that McCarthy wished to highlight.

My impression of Mr Mailer is that he may have preferred feisty women but only so that he could master and humiliate them, but I really have not read much of his oeuvre, srsly.

And on another novel building up a picture out of things to an even greater extent than The Group this sounds tricksy but the reviewer thinks it works.

Nostalgia for the Hovis world that never was, by R McCrum: Most years produce an unexpected Christmas hit. Roy Mayall's rhapsody to the beleaguered postie could be the one for 2009. Up for a 4-something am start, out in all weathers, carrying a heavy sack... oh ye goode olde dayze.

McCrum is also less than golden-glowy about the good oldfashioned independent bookseller:

My memory of old-style bookselling is of dingy, cramped premises, redolent of boiled cabbage, unable to supply the book you actually wanted in less than a month. High-street book chains get a bad press, but the inconvenient truth is that they provide an excellent service for most of their customers.

Long article here on the demise of Borders and the prospects of bookselling but lacks the talking heads of the print edition including L Shriver claiming that she just pops onto Amazon, buys a book and is not tempted into buying another one and someone praising the 'handselling' of books by independents, which thicks my blood with cold ('No, you can not help me. I'm browsing.' Is nowhere safe from this intrusive salespersonship?).
but rejoices at the new foray of Slightly Foxed into secondhand bookselling.

A nice counter-nostalgic history of the development of railways worldwide.

Nice piece on friends by Kathryn Flett:

Maybe in the end the love you take really is equal to the love you make, and perhaps having such extraordinary friends isn't just some miraculous happy-lucky accident of fate. Maybe – sod it – you really do make your own luck just a little bit, in which case perhaps I actually deserve my awesome friends. In which case… how incredibly bloody lucky am I? And there's absolutely no need to answer that one, because I already know.

selenak @ 3:49pm: West Wing Moment of the Day
A friend of mine - in the publishing business, well-read, i.e. usually well versed in spotting set-ups in fiction -, is currently marathoning The West Wing. She's in mid-season 3.

Friend: Great show. But there aren't many personal stories - love stories, I mean.
Self: There are a lot of personal stories which aren't love stories, but sure, the emphasis is on the politics. Part of what I like about it. But there are a few on-off romances, like CJ and Danny...
Friend: *snorts*
Self:...and the couple most of the audience was rooting for from the get go will get together at the end, so there's that if you absolutely have to have a long term romance.
Friend: CJ and Leo?
Self: *snorts*

Seriously, though, I didn't 'ship Josh/Donna (meaning: I didn't seek out fanfic, I wasn't actively routing for them to get together; I liked what I was given on tv, sure, but I liked their alternate love interests just as much), and I could still see the neon signs early on. Surely if there was a couple who was a safe bet to get together before the show ended, it was this one. Meanwhile - CJ and Leo? Not that I object, I'm just not clear where my friend got that one from.

elke_tanzer @ 7:02pm: Pray for me, people, I'm tipping my toes into Freeform tags...
And WTF, fandom? How is it that no one has uploaded a story into the AO3 with the Freeform tag "Topping from the Bottom"???

musesfool @ 8:04pm: she has fancy clothes and diamond rings
The uploading continues apace. I am almost ready to stop for the evening and maybe try to write. Or something. I miss writing. It's been days since I did any. Sigh.

I was uploading a lot of the codas I wrote in season 2, when I was still in the first flush of fandom love, and wow, season 2 was good for codas. I think I wrote at least one (sometimes more than one) for almost every episode. I miss that, too.

Tonight for dinner I made a roast loin of pork. It was very tasty. I combined garlic powder, onion powder, oregano, and basil in about a tablespoon of olive oil (for easy spreading), along with a couple of teaspoons of brown sugar and a large splash of vanilla (for years, I wouldn't tell my mother about the brown sugar and vanilla, and she couldn't replicate the taste. Heh.). Rub that on, top with a few pats of butter, and then cook until the internal temperature is 160°F. It was very tasty and juicy and good.

oursin @ 5:55pm: Home agin, home agin

After pleasing period of rest + physical activity (6 x walkies on the Common, 4 sessions in the gym, 1 Pilates class, 1 Core Conditioning Class) + delicious treatments (I want my home dry-float apparatus!), back home. There were a few crumpled rose-leaves, but the overall experience was so pleasant I could treat these with relative equanimity (where is oursin and what have I done with the hedgehog?) - indeed, the wonky tap in the ladies' loo next to the gym is becoming an old familiar friend, rather like the wonkinesses in one's own home that one has learnt to deal with.

Discovered, from the taxi driver picking me up, that there was a replacement bus service between Haslemere and Guildford - something which had not been entirely manifest on the National Rail site when I checked - so I decided to take the taxi to Guildford rather than hoick self and luggage on and off taxi, bus and train. The drive went past the Devil's Punchbowl, which I hadn't realised was there - the setting of Monica Edwards' 'Punchbowl Farm' series? (I preferred the Romney Marsh ones.)

Review of Lived in London: Blue Plaques and the Stories Behind Them edited by Emily Cole by Kathryn Hughes. Qu: surely the name of Flinders Petrie is still relatively well-remembered? Or do I think that because I work more or less round the corner from the UCL Museum of Egyptology that bears his name?

Some novels never quite recover from the brilliance of their opening chapters. WORD.

No, not really:

Geoffrey Moorhouse, who died this week, was a great travel writer, but had also been one of the last gentleman reporters. He was adventurous in many ways: he had one of the first vasectomies, which went wrong, and he gave a hilarious description of phoning London from a bar in rural Ireland to describe the symptoms to his surgeon, while drinkers gave pennies to small boys to fetch their fathers so they could hear it too.

Well, no, Simon Hoggart, actually: vasectomies had been being performed since around the mid-C19th, originally in the belief that they alleviated the evils of self-abuse and spermatorrhoea, from 1899 for purposes of sterilisation, and during the interwar period in the belief that they were a means of rejuvenation (HAI! W B Yeats). I.e. it is a rather simple operation that you'd think surgeons would have managed to get right by the time it became a relatively popular, or at least discussed, method of birth control in the late 1960s. I will concede that 'methods of birth control' (and 'weird operations performed for bizarre reasons'?) just possibly might be one of my Mastermind special subjects.

yonmei @ 5:36pm: Same-sex handholding dragons
Today is Sssh! Saturday, which is an invention of a Londoner who wants it to become an international last-Saturday-of-the-month celebration of people holding hands in public.

I didn't hold hands with anyone today.

One of my dragons is about to die.

I have to go have dinner with my parents shortly.

None of the above statements has anything to do with each other or with this one.

As far as I know.

selenak @ 7:37am: Fannish5, Patrick Stewart and a Farscape rec
Fannish5: Name five characters who would throw the best holiday gatherings.

1.) Londo Mollari, of Babylon 5. Not just because the Centauri in general and Londo in particular love to party, but because Londo actually has organizational skills if he wants to employ them (see: organizing conspiracies against heads of state, getting various representatives of the league of non-alligned worlds he previously pissed off to form an alliance). And he's got the charm and vitality to make everyone feel welcome. Lastly, we have on screen canon for this. I ask you, whose "practice of religious belief" looked like it was the most fun to attend in Parliament of Dreams?

2.) Jadzia Dax, of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.. Dax loves a party, is tight with the local provider of drinks and food, and with her xenophilia is bound to pick up a rich variety of guests. Centuries of age also give her the knowledge to avoid stepping on anyone's cultural toes. Lastly, I say again, on screen evidence. Her hen night looked like it was glorious fun.

3.) Chiana, of Farscape. Much younger and more anarchic than my previous two examples, but when she wants to say thank you to people she cares about, she has given on screen evidence for her ability to organize a touching celebration (and the food that goes with it). Also, if Chiana is throwing the gathering, you can bet the romantic angst will be kept at a minimum and the fun level will be high; of course, it's not guaranteed all the food was legaly obtained, but in the Unchartered Territories, who cares?

4.) Hugo "Hurley" Reyes, of Lost. This man has proven himself able to throw a party even under adverse conditions on the proverbial desert island, and to cajole people who constantly clash to attend. He's been known to share chocolate even with messed up sociopathic masterminds. Hurley is definitely a candidate for best holiday gatherer ether!

5. Lorne, of Angel. A long time owner of a karaoke bar frequented by demons and humans alike, superb singer, all time nice guy and friend, Lorne probably could throw holiday gatherings in his sleep. (Why, he could organize merry get togethers even in a brain washed state when most of California was temporarily in the Hyperion worshipping Jasmine.) In addition to sharing the celebratory spirit and organizing skills of my previous candidates, Lorne can also provide great music for the occasion. Just be careful not to sing yourself if you don't want advice for what awaits you.
****


Speaking of Chiana,one of the many virtues of the AO3 is that one can discover stories one missed the first time around. I've always had a soft spot for the Chiana-John Crichton relationship, so I was delighted to find a long and plotty adventure starring the two of them:
Left Behind, set in season 3, with the episode Eat Me as a starting point. If you, like me, didn't know this story since ages, go and read at once!

*****

And lastly, one does not need new reasons to love Patrick Stewart, but I found his impassioned article about domestic violence very moving, and very worth reading.

squeaky, posting in announcements @ 12:18am: Sales Over
All of the IJ holiday sales have ended and prices are back to normal. We will be putting Permanently Insane accounts on sale for their regular price before Christmas.

musesfool @ 11:40pm: backpage news down in the neighborhood
I don't really care about so much about the plots on White Collar. They just keep giving me tasty OT3 stuff and I'm content.

I've spent most of the day uploading stuff to the AO3. It allows me to feel productive when I can't write. I have too many goddamn stories, though. angelgazing pointed out that I will never be done uploading because I write faster than I upload. Though possibly this is no longer the case. I don't know. I have been having my usual late autumn/early winter problems getting motivated. Since the archive takes so long to upload, I am also rereading some favorite stories (I don't have to pay as close attention to rereads - I can skim and skip and be interrupted without losing anything, 'cause I've already read them before). I keep getting errors, unfortunately, which is slowing things down even more.

Technology is not my friend.

I know lots of people are excited by tagging their stories in all sorts of ways, but I am doing what I find useful and that's it. As long as I get the characters/pairing on there, and maybe if it's a casefile or an episode tag, that's about the extent of my interest. Maybe if I upload my HP stuff, I'll split the Remus/Sirius out by era, like I have it in my tags on LJ, but mostly I don't care about the tags. *hides*

Also, I wish there were a place in the profile to link to a warnings policy, and that that link could just automatically be included on every story. Because I am just using the "No Primary Warnings Apply" which isn't the same as "no warnings needed" but 99% of my stuff is "no warnings needed" and I'd like to be able to say that somewhere, since it isn't a choice on the warnings field. I guess I could make it a tag, but I never think of it. I wish it were automatic.

Hmm...

yonmei @ 11:24pm: Dull week...
Monday: still at work till 10pm, till TSH#1 and I finally packed up and left.
Tuesday: Took Bob to vet: she weighs the same as she did last time, so the vet hopes she's plateau'd out. Stayed at work till 10pm, till TSH#1 and I finally packed up and left.
Wednesday: Worked at home till 3pm, went into work, stayed at work till 10pm. (TSH#1 was through in Glasgow at a work-related event.)
Thursday: Twerp and FreshStart had meeting, which - towards the end - I overheard enough (door opened) to make clear they had been talking about me. Huh. Left work at 5:30 to attend work-related event. Left at 8pm and went to non-work wine-tasting. (White Rioja is great stuff, by the way.)
Friday: Left work at 5:10 to attend work-related event. Left at 7:30pm, did shopping, got home at just after 9pm.

Am attempting to figure out where I want to go for Christmas. For the last sixteen years, with only a couple of exceptions, I've been meeting up with two friends for mince pies, wine, and midnight mass. This Christmas, one of them is dead, and the other plans - rightly, I think - to go on holiday somewhere else. (I would go with him if he were going, but I have been going to that church specifically for midnight mass on Chriatmas Eve since 1987, first with one friend, then with another, and now both of them are dead. It feels too weird to be going there on my own. I'd like to be somewhere else instead.)

the_shoshanna @ 4:13pm: Barbara Hambly short stories available direct
seen in cofax's linkspam roundup: Barbara Hambly is selling short stories connected to her older (Del Rey) fantasy series, direct from her website for $5 a pop. There are two Benjamin January stories, one Joanna Sheraton and Antryg Windrose, and one, um, wacky mashup. Buy them here! I will soon, but right now I have to go make the cranberry sauce (with orange zest, fresh ginger, cinnamon, and clove. Mmmmmmmmmmmm).

selenak @ 6:34pm: Three Good Friday Things
1.) My Yuletide story is off to the trusty beta. And again I am amused I ended up with the prompt for the fandom I only threw in as an afterthought. 'Twas very satisfying to write, though. No idea whether it's as easy to guess as my remix fic (which was easy if you know me; as skywaterblue put it, who else would go for a story based on one of the justly least popular DS9 episodes?). I also don't know the recipient at all, which I find in some ways easier than to write for a friend. (I'll never forget my nervoussnesss about whether or not astrogirl2 would hate Nowhere Man! The poor trusty beta who held my virtual hand won't forget, either.)

2.) Christopher Eccleston and Naoko Mori are going to play John Lennon and Yoko Ono. In a film covering the Beatles break-up years and the getting together of John and Yoko, no less. Mind you, the ages completely don't fit - I guesss Eccleston is older now than John Lennon ever got to be, let alone as he was in the late 1960s, and Naoko Mori while right for Yoko then looks younger than Eccleston when really Yoko was older. But who cares? They're both excellent actors, and I'm especially happy for Naoki Mori, who was mostly underused on Torchwood but when the show did allow her to shine really was magnificent. And hey, John Lennon plays right into Eccleston's type of roles.

3.) I already recced individual stories from this series before, but: halycon_shift has finished what amounts to a virtual season 3 of my much missed Sarah Connor Chronicles: Out on the Wire. Picks up right where s2 ended for both Sarah and John, uses the great supporting characters the show offers, and does justice to its complex themes. I'm still not over the cancellation and don't think I'll ever be, but great fanfiction like this helps somewhat.

the_shoshanna @ 11:45am: thanks-giving
I spent yesterday driving to Massachusetts, along with Geoff and a friend; my folks are doing Thanksgiving on Saturday, because it fits everyone's schedules better. So actual turkey day was entirely sans turkey, but turkey prep has begun! (We just came back from going to pick it up at a local farm.)

I'm thankful for my friends, my health, my financial security, and my physical comfort. I'm thankful for modern medicine, which has kept my father (among others) alive, sustained him, and enabled him to reach this day. I'm thankful for fandom, for fannish friends, for fannish projects, for fannish squee and porn and gumption and collaborative effort. I'm thankful for my life, and the communities and the world I live it in.

I hope those of you who celebrated yesterday are still comfortably curled up around your distended bellies. (Unless you were crazed enough to go shopping today, in which case I hope you got whatever it was you were willing to brave the maddened crowds for. Better you than me.) If you're not the celebrating-U.S.-Thanksgiving type, I hope you're having a wonderful weekend of your own!

yonmei @ 1:19pm: To do list (dull)
( cut for dullness )

oursin @ 1:23pm: Hmmm, fantasy adventure....

Recently purchased, off my Amazon recs list (where it waspresumably 'because you bought Farscape &/or Neverwhere) a boxed set (v cheap) 'Fantasy Adventure Collection', containing Labyrinth, Mirrormask, and The Dark Crystal.

I enjoyed Labyrinth, because of stroppy bolshie female figure in quest fantasy, although also the 'be kind to passing creatures and they will help you in your quest) element, lots of allusions to classic works, and David Bowie as camp as a row of pink frilly tents. Plus, it seemed to me to focus on the plot and less on the cool design stuff. (Not that some of the design stuff wasn't cool.)

I liked Mirrormask rather less, although I appreciated the reverse-Persephone motif. Except - Queen of Light/Queen of Shadows - HAI MY KLEINIAN PARANOID-SCHIZOID POSITION, LET ME SHOW U IT - a binarism I never like much, and this one had the Queen of Light in a coma. Also, was ambiguous male sidekick being set up as Romantic Interest? - eeeuuuwww. Also, a lot of this did seem driven by Cool Stuff We Can Do, some of which was, I admit, v effective.

Both of these, interestingly, had episode in which protag was sent to sleep/put into a trance/given amnesia, and this was associated with trappings of conventional femininity. (I have some problems with this - I'd like to see a narrative in which the girl deliberately and knowing chooses these with some particular purpose.)

The Dark Crystal was pretty but pretty terrible. I am so over any narrative that focuses on Dim Male Chosen One - in this, the female gelfing had more in the way of natural talents and general nous (even with the markings of conventional femininity and fairy wings) but Dim Male Gelfling still gets to Heal The Crystal (I'm sorry if that's a spoiler...). Okay, we did have a female mad or at least eccentric scientist or seer, but distinctly non-humanoid and apparently the only one of her species.

Also, the Mystics? They were adowwable cute, I want a stuffed plushy one to hug and pet and call George, but while they might have been Good, they were pretty dumb. You have an impending End of All Things and a Prophesied One Among You. Wouldn't it be a good idea to inform the Prophesied One and give him some degree of Cloo rather than the Oldest and Wisest Mystic, on his/her/its deathbed, going 'O HAI U B CHOSEN 1. TIEM 2 FULFIL PROPHICI B NAO'. Duh. Not even that scenario where Prophesied One has been lost or too well-hidden, they'd had him around since they found him as a wee baby gelfling.

And I'm not sure that any society as all-out EEEEEvil as the Skeksies (?sp) could survive 1000 years or whatever it was, with everyone's talon against everyone else. (And didn't they, or something v similar, turn up in an episode of Farscape?)

And the narrative was bog-standard straightforward quest with clear good v evil: at least the other two had ambiguous sidekicks with shifting allegiances.

But this kiss has been and always will be my all time favorite.
