In the faint hopes that this post might provide SOME entertainment...
Tell me about your current fannish projects, people. What fic/art/vids/whatever are you working on? What do you love that isn't getting the attention it deserves?
Or tell me about your pets. Or the last awesome thing you bought. Or post a recipe. I don't care, just make it less goddamn depressing than the post.
Right now my own current favourite thing is a TV show called Scott & Bailey, about two badass BFF detectives from Manchester played by Suranne Jones (aka the TARDIS/Idris) and Leslie Sharpe. Rachel Bailey is tough and streetwise and impulsive and from a pretty rough background, whilst her best mate, partner and superior, Janet Scott, is gentler, calmer and more experienced, and a middle-aged mum whose relationship with her husband is falling apart. Their boss is Gill/Godzilla (Amelia Bullmore, HBIC), who is the toughest BAMF the world has ever seen and permanently arguing with her stroppy teenage son and stroppier ex-husband. TOGETHER THEY SOLVE CRIMES. Basically it's a team of badasss mostly older ladies being HIGHLY PROFESSIONAL (except for when they are giggly snarkers) and brilliant and smart and messed-up and angry and funny and basically running the serious crimes unit of the North. Every important character in it is female and this is never a thing, it just is, and there are three series of it and BASICALLY I NEED PEOPLE TO LOVE THIS SHOW.
And to make up for all that flailing, here are pictures of Eddie Izzard, shirtless Mark Ruffalo, and Sue Perkins.
Oh, and my dog, wearing my kid brother's headphones.
