Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix Countdown: 137 days

Man. I watch one episode of The West Wing and already there kissing? Dude. Also, awwwwww. Any recs, anyone? Please?

In other TV news, I watched Urban Legend yesterday, and um. Has Michael Rosenbaum ever played a role that was even remotely straight?

Also, I should apparently not be allowed to buy dyke porn on my own. M/m porn? No problem. I've bought half a dozen gay porn novels over the course of the last three years, and while they weren't all brilliant or even good, they were passable. So a year or so ago, I got some lesbian pron from Amazon, thinking hey, I've been lucky with m/m porn, how bad could it be? Apparently, really bad. I read one page and put it back down, and only recently managed to read the whole thing. Man, this book is crap.

I mean, seriously. Take any fanfic rant/pet peeve/advice page. Any of them, doesn't matter. I guarantee you, this book (and it's really more of a booklet) violates at least two of the peeves on it. It's littered with italics, parentheses, the works.

And then there's the content, which is ... odd, to say the least. Now, I admit, my experience with dyke erotica is rather limited, but last time I checked, anything involving an actual cock is not lesbian. No, really. A number of stories also involve strap-ons, and while I'm prepared to make allowances for taste, I have to frown when a story goes on at some length about being fucked with a strap-on, and how much better it is than just fingers. I'm sorry, but if you want a cock that much, get a real one.

Someone want to reccommend some good lesbian porn?

And now, a word on the posting limit ... I agree with kat; three to five posts a day is really not that limiting, and if it takes the strain of the servers, we'll all be better for it. And really, even in my heydays, I very rarely posted more than twenty times a day. Granted, it might have implications for the owl tag game in LN, but that's easily solved by posting return owls in comments, I think.

That said, my account expires at the end of the month, and I'm thinking of switching to some sort of on-site thing. Not because of LJ itself, but because of friends list politics. I've been considering this since my paid account first ran out in ... June? July? But then people kept buying me renewals, so I put off the decision a bit longer every time. Right now, though, I'm rather sick of the whole thing. (Then again, the convenience of the friends list is so very addicting.)

In other news, I dreamed about Bole last night. Sadly, no smut was involved. Where do I file a complaint?

I had a picture I wanted to show you. Now I cannot recall where it is. Or which it was.

*looks*

Perhaps it was this (http://www.acherontia.net/amatia/personal/jamie/bafta_02/377539j.jpg). Everyone's trying to grope him!

Or perhaps this (http://www.acherontia.net/amatia/personal/jamie/bafta_01/333141dc.jpg), subtitled "Get Away From Me, You Insane Woman!".

Don't leave! Fuck friendslist politics, it's great to see you on my friends page. Especially with the Order of the Phoenix countdown. And, you know, other things.

Re:


But! Then that would make it harder to check. 'Cause, you know, I've already got sixteen other journals to read, and LJ makes things So Much Easier.

Re:


Bah. Just delete everyone from your friendslist and read other peoples' friendslists. But post to LJ! Because dammit, I need my daily dose of Melle!

No! Don't you dare go anywhere from lj.

I suck at checking non-lj journals. Feh.

So. Did I already mention that you're not allowed to leave lj? Heh.

From: [identity profile] deepsix.livejournal.com


Yes.

(Also: When the hell are you going to start getting on AIM again? Not that I have any right to complain just now since I'm never on AIM, but STILL. *shakes fist*)

...an. An. That was supposed to say 'an "if you leave, people will be SAD" situation.' Argh.

P.S. Ahahahahaha! I [heart] V and Sun.

But I won't be leaving altogether! I'll still comment! I'll still have a blog!

So. [pauses] You're not going anywhere, and that's FINAL. [skips off]

I'm telling you, you don't want to get involved with the west wing fandom. It's a horrid place.

Regardless, if you want het (and it's mostly het in the fandom, which is not the reason it's bad) The State of The Union is a good site. The mailing list has a lot of fics on it as well.

The problem with the west wing fandom is that, in addition to being elitist, it's rather boring. There's nothing new and exciting or, you know, not boring about it.

Re:


Sweetie, I survived Metallica fandom, I can survive this. Trust me. :) I'll check out the het site, although I'd really like some good slash, too. And yeah, boring sounds ... bad.

Re:


I only say that as a warning. The West Wing fandom is full of BNFs, their fan!girls, and wannabes. If you want something intersting, I'd say you'd be out of luck.

But, take into account that I'm really bitter about the fandom. Because, if you're not a BNF and you don't want to be one, then you're really, well, not good enough.

I could go on and on, but I won't. Because while I may seem to be bitchy and mean, I try not to be ;)

Re:


Hey, bitch away, man. When I get my home connection back, we should get on AIM and exchange fandom horror stories. :D

Re:


I'm horrid! I mean, I only ever talk about it in a negative light. And it was the fandom that introduced me to NC-17 fic ... And slash. Yet, I'm so bitter.

*shakes head*

Ha! Yes. Like the saying, "Hell hath no fury like a woman socred ... From Fandom." Heh.

Re:


Heh. Just wait till I get started on Metallica fandom. Or rather, the original, pre-War Metallica fandom. No, really. ^_^

Re:


Yeah, man. Of all the places I thought I'd risk getting ensnared into a semi-cult, fandom was certainly not it.

Re:


I thought I'd given it all up. I mean, I was fandom (ficfandom) free from 1998 to 2000. I had my other 'things' (Dave Matthews Band, Moby, Electronica), but I never thought I'd ever write fanfic again.

Ahh well, I wouldn't trade it for much (except maybe A LOT of money, and only if I could, you know, keep the people I know from fandoms with me). Because, for me the people make the fandom. I might have had a horrific experience with LN (and I did), but I 'met' a lot of people. Many of whom have ended up friends, or sort of friends (as in, I talk to them sometimes on AIM and read their LJs).

Re:


Yes. Not something I will repeat over LJ. It involves people who are friends of my friends. And I'd rather not talk about in such a public forum.

Um, you're a great addition to my friends list, and I wouldn't want to see you go.

34 comments, and not one lesbian porn rec. I bought a book that promises to be a cheesy lesbian romance novel (I know, I know, but it looked vaguely interesting and I had an Amazon.com gift certificate); I'll let you know if it's worth reading.

From: [identity profile] bubosquared.livejournal.com

Re:


Cool, thanks. It doesn't have to be great, or even very good, as long as it doesn't read like The Worst of Nifty with all the "he's" changed to "she's".

rsadelle: (Default)

From: [personal profile] rsadelle


Hey, now, Nifty has bad lesbian porn too. They're an equal opportunity bad queer porn storehouse.

From: [identity profile] bubosquared.livejournal.com

Re:


Yes, but this is really more the m/m section, with gener pronouns changed. "hard" here and "hard" there, and I know clits get hard when women get excited, but dude.

rsadelle: (Default)

From: [personal profile] rsadelle


Ah, well, that's different then.

The cheesy lesbian romance novel had some serious flaws (possibly more on that later), but I'll send it to you anyway.
