12:03 pm - How about the following handy rule of thumb?
|
If you are creating a community to host discussions about the collected works of deceased author or actor X, I'm sure fandom_lounge would love to know about it. Fanfiction contest? fandom_lounge, again, would love to know. Fandom-organized auction to support lung cancer research because fan X died of lung cancer? fandom_lounge probably cares!
If you're launching into a discussion of public reaction to various sex practices as demonstrated by death Y and additional links Z, W, A, and B, unfunnybusiness would probably be thrilled to discuss along with you.
If you're only posting with a link to tell us that someone died... ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/community.gif) deathwatch is there for you! Really! Even if the person is famous!
current mood: frustrated

9:01 pm - Huh.

I see I've missed some things while on vacation... including the massive spambot wiki invasion. Sorry about that, ![[info]](http://www.journalfen.net/img/userinfo.gif) mindset.
ETA 5/25: Have noticed the wiki appears to be down. I'll watch it for a day or so to see if it spontaneously recovers before trying to contact HnK. At least the spambots can't create accounts if it's down? (Unless mass account creation is the reason it's down, of course. Pessimism, ho.)
ETA few hours later And we're back.

Based on Jenna's post in unfunnybusiness:
That's right, free/plus LJ users, you too could be idly reading your flist and come face to face with anti-gay marriage adverts all over it.
I couldn't, actually, since I installed Adblock, and went through systematically blocking everything I could manage quite some time ago. The day I managed to never see another Netflix ad was a glorious one indeed, and I'm not feeling sad about missing out on these ads, either.
(The question of what other people might possibly see when they look at my LJ content is something else altogether, and I haven't decided how I feel about that.)
Just generally: I can appreciate if people really like Dreamwidth's promised new features, or the staff, or whatever... but Journalfen also has no ads. It *boggles* *my* *mind* when people are busy commenting on JF-- an ad-free service, on which they and many friends already have accounts-- desperate to get codes for Dreamwidth so they can escape advertising on LJ.
If they aren't going to leave LJ behind and use this ad-free journal where their friends are, why do they think they're going to use that one where their friends aren't? I don't get it.
current mood: Grouchy

11:10 am - Looking through wank_report for anything interesting...
|
Saw the knitting copyright wank, but that's a bit more wearing than funny (at least for me).
However, this is comedy gold (and just the stuff in wank_report itself is enough, though the fan in esorlehcar's post is crazy as always).
PERSECUTION! OH, THE HUMANITY!

2:44 pm - But why isn't your book being published?
|
It's all the fault of literary agents, who are single-handedly destroying literature everywhere.
Excerpt:
The substantial and nearly unassailable wall that separates you from us has been under construction for decades. You can find the names of its architects and gatekeepers on your telephone-callers list, and in your email in-box. They are the literary agents—that league of intellectual-property purveyors who bring you every new manuscript you ever see, those men and women who are so anxious to gain access to the caverns of treasure they believe you sit upon like some great golden goose that they would likely hack one another’s heads off were they not united by one self-serving mission: to ensure that quality fiction never hits your desk.
And some responses...
This is massive entitlement (with a nice serving of elitism and self-delusion). I picture the plucky, innocent editor striving against the hordes of evil literary agents. Anyone else amused? If yes, OTF_Wank or Fandom_Wank?

4:50 pm - I'm going to try to go back to putting things on the wiki.
|
On my list:
- Kittenmommy implosion
- That recent Bandflesh wank with the rainbow troll
- Expanding the Lexicon article (since I asked Jim not to do a separate article for each wank report, I figure I've forced myself to work on it now)
- The thing with the terrifying Cale doll D:
Questionable:
Since the "You will also be in the suing" thing always gets asked about, I put it in its own category on OTF_wank. Does the wiki also need something about it?
The LJAB election - it was on F_L, CW (twice), and F_W, but it was never actually particularly funny. Worth adding?
Anything else I'm missing?
