Korra Nation

Join the Korra Nation!

This is a pretty cool giveaway-type thing that Nickelodeon is doing to promote The Legend of Korra.

You earn points by people either visiting your link or signing up on your link.

75 points earns a sweepstakes entry for a free trip to SDCC to meet Mike and Bryan
150 points earns a selection of unreleased Korra music
The first 1500 to get 300 points earn the Avatar Essentials Collection, which I am assuming is music also since it's from iTunes
The first 100 to get 500 points win a free Korra print.

So... have fun!

Really, Amazon? REALLY?

If you're going to derank books for containing "adult content", DERANK EVERYTHING WITH ADULT CONTENT.


DON'T USE IT AS AN EXCUSE TO HIDE GLBTQ BOOKS.


More information at sf_drama. Those of you with Twitter, Neil Gaiman is writing about it; there's also a hastag, #amazonfail

The Smart Bitches are Doing Something.


Seriously, Amazon.

NOT COOL.


Amazon Rank

EDIT: You know what Amazon doesn't consider "adult"?   DILDOS and PORN.

FOR THE LOVE OF FUCK

EDIT 2: More information at the Denver Internet Examiner

After two and a half years sans update, and about four years after getting this journal, I've finally changed my layout.  Woo.

"If the present Congress errs in too much talking, how can it be otherwise in a body to which the people send 150 lawyers, whose trade it is to question everything, yield nothing, & talk by the hour? That 150 lawyers should do business together ought not to be expected." --Thomas Jefferson

...bzuh?

So after awhile on journal_fen, I decide to randomly check my userinfo to see if I've been randomly friended.

I was. Dude. I guess that means I'll actually need to update once in a blue moon, eh?

I wasn't expecting a sort of Agent Inquistion...

So I was thinking about cons and con skits when suddenly I was inspired.  Now all I need are agents and a Neo.


NOBODY expects the Agent Inquisition! )

Everyone knows Monty Python owns the Spanish Inquistion, yes?  And we can all see that this is based on that?  Good.
