10:14a | emperosteele's tought on yaoi episode ???? (which # already?) Over ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/community.gif){kind=small} fanficrants; ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif){kind=small} oceanica ranted about sexual orientation in Naruto fandom.It looked normal until emperorsteele decided to join the rant. "Could" provides for possibility. If something doesn't exist or is not true, then it's not possible. Girl likes guy. She is straight UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE. UNTIL that point, it's just whistful fantasy that she wants the clam. Anyway, the OP was saying things like "Likes girls.. possibly bi". I mean really? What does it take to convince some people that someone is straight? In a boy's action story where romance is hardly ever a focus, no less? Bit late to the party on this one, but I've got one name for you: Dumbledore. Oh sure, point out the ONE time something like that happened! I guess that means ALL characters are secretly gay!! My bad!!! So on and on and on and on and on.... ETA: Fandom is such math. |

9:31p | One of these things is not like the other I'm still in work hell most of the time, but I had to make this comment on today's news.  Pro-drilling, doesn't believe humans caused global warming, wants to add creationism to the school curriculum and take the polar bear off the endangered species list, against abortion even in cases of incest and rape, admits knowing little about foreign policy or the Iraq War. Pro-universal health care, serves on Committee on Environment and Public Works, promotes green programs, supports protection of the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, promotes universal Pre-K, pro-choice, has real and well-known opinions on foreign affairs.But, they both have vaginas, right? So Hillary supporters will now vote Republican? Right? The only interpretation that makes sense is that Palin was chosen because the far right bloggers and radio hosts like her. But since when does politics make sense? |

6:46p | Some things... ToV is AWESOME. Yuri is like, a calmer, more mature Gin-san. HE IS AWESOME. The game is AWESOME. Gintama is AWESOME. Zura is fucking insane. XD (Although Elizabeth was curiously absent.) I put the money I had for the ToV preorder into reserving Infinite Undiscovery. And found it it comes out next week. So uh. orz Well, I was kinda joking that the rest of the guild will be 99 when I get back, but apparently they probably have a good chance of doing so! ||||orz I've been getting off early from work this week; I don't even care I'm losing out on money, SO MUCH GAMING TIME FOR TOV *_* I'll write a more proper overall impression in a little bit. I want to get a little further, as it seems like I've barely touched in on some of the characters and I don't even think I've seen the main plot yet. |

11:36a | goodnight sweet lady For my Mir, who has probably in the hereafter gone up Muhammad's sleeve with Muezza. At four-twenty-seven she called me to the door. She chose not to come in, but let me know she was there, and she was in Her Spot. Goodnight. We will meet anew Hereafter. Until then, I will miss you every day. I am your person. This is your lap and your bed, in your house. I am yours, and I will take utmost care of me because I was so dear to you. No cat can be your equal, for you were the most beautiful one in the world. You did not ever allow me to mourn and be sorrowed alone. You saved me many times, and for that I love you, I love you so much more than I can ever give voice to. Nine are your lives, and you spent them with us. We're blessed forever by that. My gratitude to you is vaster than the span of the universe. You're my Enkidu. I love you. For I will consider my Cat Jeoffry. For he is the servant of the Living God duly and daily serving him. For at the first glance of the glory of God in the East he worships in his way. For is this done by wreathing his body seven times round with elegant quickness. For then he leaps up to catch the musk, which is the blessing of God upon his prayer. For he rolls upon prank to work it in. For having done duty and received blessing he begins to consider himself. For this he performs in ten degrees. For first he looks upon his fore-paws to see if they are clean. For secondly he kicks up behind to clear away there. For thirdly he works it upon stretch with the fore paws extended. For fourthly he sharpens his paws by wood. For fifthly he washes himself. For Sixthly he rolls upon wash. For Seventhly he fleas himself, that he may not be interrupted upon the beat. For Eighthly he rubs himself against a post. For Ninthly he looks up for his instructions. For Tenthly he goes in quest of food. For having consider'd God and himself he will consider his neighbour. For if he meets another cat he will kiss her in kindness. For when he takes his prey he plays with it to give it chance. For one mouse in seven escapes by his dallying. For when his day's work is done his business more properly begins. For he keeps the Lord's watch in the night against the adversary. For he counteracts the powers of darkness by his electrical skin and glaring eyes. For he counteracts the Devil, who is death, by brisking about the life For in his morning orisons he loves the sun and the sun loves him. For he is of the tribe of Tiger. For the Cherub Cat is a term of the Angel Tiger. For he has the subtlety and hissing of a serpent, which in goodness he suppresses. For he will not do destruction, if he is well-fed, neither will he spit without provocation. For he purrs in thankfulness, when God tells him he's a good Cat. For he is an instrument for the children to learn benevolence upon. For every house is incompleat without him and a blessing is lacking in the spirit. For the Lord commanded Moses concerning the cats at the departure of the Children of Israel from Egypt. For every family had one cat at least in the bag. For the English Cats are the best in Europe. For he is the cleanest in the use of his fore-paws of any quadrupede. For the dexterity of his defence is an instance of the love of God to him exceedingly. For he is the quickest to his mark of any creature. For he is tenacious of his point. For he is a mixture of gravity and waggery. For he knows that God is his Saviour. For there is nothing sweeter than his peace when at rest. For there is nothing brisker than his life when in motion. For he is of the Lord's poor and so indeed is he called by benevolence perpetually -- Poor Jeoffry! poor Jeoffry! the rat has bit thy throat. For I bless the name of the Lord Jesus that Jeoffry is better. For the divine spirit comes about his body to sustain it in compleat cat. For his tongue is exceeding pure so that it has in purity what it wants in musick. For he is docile and can learn certain things. For he can set up with gravity which is patience upon approbation. For he can fetch and carry, which is patience in employment. For he can jump over a stick which is patience upon proof positive. For he can spraggle upon waggle at the word of command. For he can jump from an eminence into his master's bosom. For he can catch the cork and toss it again. For he is hated by the hypocrite and miser. For the former is affraid of detection. For the latter refuses the charge. For he camels his back to bear the first notion of business. For he is good to think on, if a man would express himself neatly. For he made a great figure in Egypt for his signal services. For he killed the Icneumon-rat very pernicious by land. For his ears are so acute that they sting again. For from this proceeds the passing quickness of his attention. For by stroaking of him I have found out electricity. For I perceived God's light about him both wax and fire. For the Electrical fire is the spiritual substance, which God sends from heaven to sustain the bodies both of man and beast. For God has blessed him in the variety of his movements. For, tho he cannot fly, he is an excellent clamberer. For his motions upon the face of the earth are more than any other quadrupede. For he can tread to all the measures upon the musick. For he can swim for life. For he can creep. Excerpt from "Jubliate Agno," by Christopher Smart Current Mood: goodnight |

Suggestions for a fair price would be very, very welcome. Link to my personal journal here I want to put it in some fan art shows, there are a couple coming up here in Perth in the next year.

2:39p | And the Twilight Wank Saga continues with an author flounce... As a lot of you must know by now, the first 12 Chapters of Midnight Sun, Smeyer's addition to her Uh-may-zing boooookes was leaked on the internet several days ago, and this has chagrined her dazzle verily. From her official website: August 28, 2008 (part II) As some of you may have heard, my partial draft of Midnight Sun was illegally posted on the Internet and has since been virally distributed without my knowledge or permission or the knowledge or permission of my publisher. I have a good idea of how the leak happened as there were very few copies of Midnight Sun that left my possession and each was unique. Due to little changes I made to the manuscript at different times, I can tell when each left my possession and to whom it was given. The manuscript that was illegally distributed on the Internet was given to trusted individuals for a good purpose. I have no comment beyond that as I believe that there was no malicious intent with the initial distribution. I did not want my readers to experience Midnight Sun before it was completed, edited and published. I think it is important for everybody to understand that what happened was a huge violation of my rights as an author, not to mention me as a human being. As the author of the Twilight Saga, I control the copyright and it is up to the owner of the copyright to decide when the books should be made public; this is the same for musicians and filmmakers. Just because someone buys a book or movie or song, or gets a download off the Internet, doesn't mean that they own the right to reproduce and distribute it. Unfortunately, with the Internet, it is easy for people to obtain and share items that do not legally belong to them. No matter how this is done, it is still dishonest. This has been a very upsetting experience for me, but I hope it will at least leave my fans with a better understanding of copyright and the importance of artistic control. So where does this leave Midnight Sun? My first feeling was that there was no way to continue. Writing isn't like math; in math, two plus two always equals four no matter what your mood is like. With writing, the way you feel changes everything. If I tried to write Midnight Sun now, in my current frame of mind, James would probably win and all the Cullens would die, which wouldn't dovetail too well with the original story. In any case, I feel too sad about what has happened to continue working on Midnight Sun, and so it is on hold indefinitely. I'd rather my fans not read this version of Midnight Sun. It was only an incomplete draft; the writing is messy and flawed and full of mistakes. But how do I comment on this violation without driving more people to look for the illegal posting? It has taken me a while to decide how and if I could respond. But to end the confusion, I've decided to make the draft available here (at the end of this message on the Midnight Sun page). This way, my readers don't have to feel they have to make a sacrifice to stay honest. I hope this fragment gives you further insight into Edward's head and adds a new dimension to the Twilight story. That's what inspired me to write it in the first place. I do want to take a moment and thank the wonderful fans who have been so supportive of me over the past three years. I cannot begin to tell you how much each of you means to me. I only hope this note will stop all the confusion and online speculation so that the Twilight universe can once again become the happy escape it used to be. After this incredibly busy year, I am now focusing on spending more time with my family and working on some other writing projects. --Stephenie I don't think I need to add much more than that. Lol. This is so bloody beautiful...Oh Smeyer...please to be going over there to cry upon your pile of ill-begotten millions. We all know that that book is going to be finished and published eventually so that you can add to your dragon hoard of booty. Who else thinks that she's just waaaaahing for the sympathy and threatening to not provide any more crack so that everyone can forget about the epic fail that was Breaking Dawn and start kissing her ass again? *raises hand*Edit: And we get reactions from the Amazon Boards and the ♥ TwiMoms ♥. The ONTD comm weighs in on the situation. And the NuttyMadam reacts. Though sorry, there's no vid this time since she took it down. But here, have a transcription of the lost vid, courtesy of aegflota
We are all a bunch of meanies hiding away in this little club house of ours. Smeyer Ego stroking. Bonus Snack: The Twimoms just cannot leave the poor boy alone!. There's wankiness in the second link, as the TwiMom in the picture appears and asks for her photo to be taken down. Also, Here is a step by step instruction manual on how to go about your Pretty Vampire Actors stalking, for you n00bs who have no idea how to go about it. It is illustrated and everything. The TwiMoms are nothing, if not thorough. OH NOES YOU GUISE! They be calling the FBI on us!!! WHAT DO WE DO? WHAT DO WE DO? Twilight is going to save our country from the evil lesbians so you'd better all stop dissing it! Cleolinda Midnight Sun Commentary! Yay. Lol. |

10:42p | I'm sure there's a masturbation joke I could make here but I'm stumped. If you've been following F_W for a bit you're probably aware of the existence of FurAffinity, the furry-themed art website. Recently, the website had been down for about a month due to a supposed hardware failure. During that time many users, unable to function without their hot hot hermaphrodite liontaur porn, flocked to a lesser known site called Furry Art Pile. Yes, it's lovingly called FAP most of the time. Many users decided that they liked FAP better, and made this known in their various journals on FurAffinity when it returned. They found it more user friendly, and there was also much suspicion that the 20k raised for new hardware by FurAffinity was not all going back into the site. Which brings us to yesterday. The head admin of FAP (Dylan) made an entry in his personal journal that he just wasn't having fun with the project anymore and was shutting it down. As in, right then and there. There was no warning period. Even more troubling -- he had recently been accepting donations on the website for upgrades. Needless to say, this doesn't go over very well. Most replies being fairly blunt. Then a few of the admin's friends come in to make fun of the complainers: losdelroro: "Major props to you for taking a pet project so far and enjoying it. When it starts to be work and people start demanding stuff of you and all their "contributions" is the extra $2 they got as a tip from working at Starbucks, you dont owe them a damn thing. I hope you enjoy your next project as much as you enjoyed this one and I know you'll do amazing things!" And later: "I dont really care what things he admitted to screwing up or not, what matters to me is a person's personal opinion and right to do what they want with a website they created from scratch. Especially if it eats up huge amounts of time to maintain and upgrade when the total amount "donated" doesnt even cover server costs. I didnt' say he only got $2, I was insinuating that the donations were meager collections and scraps that people had left over when they weren't buying comics, porn or fursuits. I think you just need to accept that its going away, deal with it somehow and move on and stop being so petty. Its not exactly crushing your world is it? Didn't think so." After the uproar from people not even able to grab what they needed off the site before it was shut down, the site itself was reopened with an announcement that it would be closing on September 1st. Still, the only advice Dylan gives to those who donated? Take it up with Amazon. |

9:01p | I got this via winterlive on LJ here.If you've got an old mp3 player or discman lying around, send it to belladonnalin. she's got a shelter, she's got homeless kids and every single kid in the entire world needs music. quoth bella: Doing the bus thing to work every day and walking through downtown every day would be a lot less pleasant if I didn't have the option to put on some music and drown out the world. Not because it's so terrible, but because there are days that I don't want to listen to other people's domestic disagreements or screaming about getting ripped off for their most recent hit. I don't want to listen to teenage girls talking about "she's a fucking ho, you know she slept with him and him and him." Sometimes, I just need to shut it out. More details at the link. |

2:19p | LEGO Batman: The Cartoon! LEGO Batman cartoon in the works. Speaking to GI.biz at the Games Convention last week, Traveller's Tales producer Rich Earl revealed that a TV show based on their latest Lego project is indeed in the works. The show is being produced by a separate studio in the states, using TT's assets to bring classic Batman characters to life. "My understanding is that they will use the engine, the Maya files where the characters come to life, but they'll be creating animated... I think it's a 20-minute cartoon. I'm personally quite intrigued to see how it comes out. Lego, every time they've had a new brand out, they've done some CGI stuff as well, but I think this will be quite different." Already a debate has broken out as to whether they should use voices or keep the cartoon dialogue-free. And if they're going to use voices, should it be Adam West or Kevin Conroy as Batman.... |

2:41a | Impending furry wanksplosion Furry Art Pile, aka FAP (I see whut u did thar!) From what I can gather, FAP was supposed to have more features than FA, with user input and whatnot, and avoid all the technical problems that plagued FA. (Obviously, nobody expected it to avoid all the drama problems, because: furries.) Alas, it was not to be. There are links posted to allow authors to download all their content, and users to download all their favorites, which in my mind is a hell of a lot more than most webmasters do when they take their ball and go home. Nonetheless, this is cold comfort for many. The closure happened late in the evening Pacific time, so the real wank will undoubtedly start in the morning. Still, in the webmaster's LJ entry announcing the closure, the seeds have already been sown. So far we have in the incubator: There's probably also a thread or 10 at FA already, plus at least one in each of the major furry LJ comms, but I have to get up for school in like 5 hours, so I leave it to you intrepid wankas to brave those waters. Please, no furbashing. Edit: post in official community (no comments ATM but they are enabled) and one in wtf_fap |

7:21p | How dare you talk about our relationship without my consent. Over in fanficrants, bittersweetwish fusses about how Twu Wuv (with a human W) and said expression of love does not generally come after the first damn date, and most relationships take time to blossom into the hot wubbings. nanuq459 agrees and in a discussion sums up a past relationship thusly: Seriously, we were friends for a long time but then she cornered me, asked if I had feelings for her, and then it was pretty much: Me: Let's see if this works ou-- Her: *TACKLEGLOMP* ....and then the other half of the failed relationship, mercuryblue144, shows up with a curt and simple "Fuck you too." And there is drama. Bonus wankish on metaquotes, where mercuryblue144 is upset that the quote was still metaquoted--even though the other half said it. It's not very big, just really...weird. I mean, no one would have ever known anything if she'd been quiet. --Neth Current Mood: Mundane |

8:08p | Tales of Vesperia Impressions TOTALLY spoiler-free from plot and story elements, but I do give impressions about the game itself (and some fangirly exclamations oh my GOD Yuri is hot and I NEVER thought I'd say that about a long-haired character). ( read at your own risk I guess ) |

6:35p | Because history repeats itself Anyone remember this entry? Anyone care to hazard a guess on what happened when I went to pick up my paid-in-full reserved copy of Tales of Vesperia today? Only, they DID get their truck in. Being the only person who reserved the game, and feeling they don't need a copy for their store, they didn't get any in. Thank god there's a GameStop in the town near where I live (as opposed to where I work), and they had one copy in. I'll probably apply the money used on that reserved copy to Infinite Undiscovery. I don't mind if that game is a little late. (I think.) Also, I think the pre-order gift is a music compilation CD, but considering I already own nearly all the soundtracks I felt worth owning since I'm a huge Sakuraba geek, it's no loss on me. But AGGGGGGGHHHHHHH LESSON LEARNED DON'T EVER PRE-ORDER FROM MALL-STORES. So. Playing ToV. I'll probably post non-spoilery impressions in a bit. |

11:51p | Her soul bond, Sparkle Dobbins? Remember princess_magpie, the one who used super special horsey magic, was soulbonded to her doll and had sexual relations with it? She makes a horse doll that she calls "Sparkle Dobbins" and she posts pictures in horse_lovers. The Ugly Crap community picks up on it. A few minutes later, someone blows the whistle and the princess shows up to pitch a fit. If she's learned her lesson, she might just toss a few comments around and go home. If not, we might be in for some excitement.ETA: Princess Magpie has flounced from horse_lovers. Stupid Free has discovered the wank. Sparkle Dobbins has appeared to defend his mommy and his birth defects. ETA 2: Sparkle Dobbins posts to SF_Drama. ETA 3: From influencethis - "Even MORE sparkle_dobbins. Though this post in particular references a recent noob post and subsequent flounce on that community, it is truly glorious." |

1:33p | Dear project manager, You're a friend of mine, and you know that. And I know you have it rough these days. However, that is not going to stop me from pointing out all the bs you've managed to come up with. Yes, I do realize people have real lives (I have a job! I KNOW!) and that shit happens. And I know bugging people after a deadline is due is tough. But dude. WE'VE BEEN DELAYED FOR THREE MONTHS, and our project has been ongoing since November of LAST YEAR, and it's supposed to be due in MAY. If you're just going to let everyone slide, why even bother with a fucking deadline? And as the leader, YOU'RE SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE DOING ALL THIS SHIT ON TIME. Don't fucking extend the deadline because you suddenly can't make it when the only reason you have is ~*~procrastination~*~ when some of us did manage to finish on time even with school and jobs, when you... didn't have those. And don't you think it's just a little embarrassing that we had to delay the release date when we already had PAID pre-orders? "But it's just fandom! We're only supposed to be doing this for fun!" I agree, it's supposed to be for fun. But does that mean we don't need deadlines anymore? Not even when you've already been given several months to work on it? And don't you think things change, even a little, when you get a lot of people involved? It's a huge, ambitious first project. I know. But a little perspective, here? I offered help several times. I was denied all those times. Then it turned out you can't make it in time, after all. Did you ask for help? No. I asked repeatedly if the most important part of the project was done yet a month ago. You avoided the question, avoided me, then asked one of the members to do it less than a week before the final deadline. Seriously, what? What if she had refused? Then we'll have to delay it even MORE, and that's just. Ugh. So now, I'm the bitch because I should be GRATEFUL!!ichi!1niisan!1!! that it's done, instead of being irritated since we could have organized this a lot better. I AM glad it's done. However, if you're starting another project, I am definitely not joining unless if you manage to straighten yourself out, or if you find someone else who's willing to straighten YOU out. Love, Me.

1:33a | Remember Warner Brothers' lawyers? They're back! Bollywood's 'Hari Puttar' film sparks lawsuit By RAMOLA TALWAR BADAM, Associated Press Writer MUMBAI, India - Let's see Hari Puttar get out of this one. Bollywood producers set to release a film called "Hari Puttar: A Comedy of Terrors" are working to fend off a lawsuit filed by Warner Bros. that claims the movie title hews too closely to their mega-famous boy wizard franchise. At least they're not suing preteens for running fansites. Current Mood: *thud* |
