current state of things
Nov. 17th, 2022 06:57 pmFamily life continues to be a cluster fuck of kid health/school issues and being in the middle of S/R breakup issues, that I do not care to detail. Continuing to be glad that the emotion chip in my robot body continues to be only semi-connected. Whee.
I'm doing Pancakes and Booze this Saturday, and Cascade K8 Winterfest on the 3rd, which is at least forcing me to paint. It's been so long that I have forgotten what order to layer the persnickity metallic inks in, but I will make it work, because I always do.
There is TV I keep intending to watch, including finishing Owl House with D, and Sandman, and Ms. Marvel, but all I've managed is weekly Bake-Off simulwatching with Tamera. This is both an attention span and a flashy bright lights hurt my eyes issue.
I've been in a very Harry Potter mood, fanfic-wise, but no way in hell am I watching any of those movies and supporting Rowling financially.
The number of new HP fics that have found a way to include trans characters, even if just in passing, as a "fuck you" to Rowling, is quite pleasant. It's getting to be a bit like the feel of people working in the Cthulu mythos, which is to say, everyone acknowledges that the original material & author is a hot yucky mess, but what new eyes can make riffing off it is fabulous.
