affablyevilI've done it again; changed my layout. While I enjoyed Radioactivity, looking at my flist at night with Nocturne running would make my eyes bleed, which is not a pleasant experience for anyone. Particularly not when I need them to enjoy fanfic. (Pamela must've had a very hard life before she bit it.)
That being said, this layout is probably more political than usual; I blame the mastication of my brain cells from sludging through an overabundance of squabbling meta through linkspam*. I swear, if I hear one more self-proclaimed female fan talking about how online fandom is a "female spaaaaaaaace" I will not be held responsible. Stop gendering fannish practices it is not helping anybody.
To chill out, I've prepared my shanks.
But anyway, LiveJournal layout: "Female" robots. Regulating gender signification by mapping heterosexual binaries on nonbiological bodies. How does that even make sense? I love it. It's as theoretically intelligible as real life. Time to queue up some android sex songs.
Oh and porn. I still enjoy porn, though I think the word "spongey" should not ever appear in a sexual context. Puts a damper on the scene. So to speak.
I haven't talked about Supernatural in awhile, but I'm still reading as voraciously. It's still my primary source of fannish thought all the time — everything else I enjoy I manage to intertexualize with it. Though to be fair, the handprint burn in Legend of the Seeker is not a far stretch considering it is exactly the same thing. Good times. Anyway, Show continues to make me smile on a regular basis and keeps producing awesome fannish works. I'm working myself up to doing something creative, though the massive writer's block sitting on my pituitary gland will probably prohibit the kind of stories I want to be reading.
*Summary: female erasure and not enough femmeslash and women appropriating gay romance publishing genres and slash why are we talking about dicks since we all have vaginas and by the way I am queer today oh my god how dare you and you are a female h8r if you don't enjoy het and even if the chicks are secondary characters you have an obligation to fix them and make them awesome I swear no one will tell you you've made those characters into Mary Sues and it's not possible to appropriate anyway everything is free love but omg help help you are oppressing me stop policing my sexuality I can do what I want no you can't and on and on and on. Also if you're straight shut the hell up. Or something.
