this post is pointless and tagged accordingly

So maybe I should actually start following the [livejournal.com profile] news updates because, uh, what the fuck, LJ? Suddenly I have new categories on my xCalibur bar (retained from the ancient past yeeesss) and the edit buttons within the post are all funny-looking.

No huge or terrible changes that I've noticed; I just feel like expressing my momentary double-take.



...mini fic recs, because these are tabs I have open. Most are old fic.

-untitled drabble by [livejournal.com profile] reality_is (Slam Dunk), Rukawa, Sakurai, PG
-Merry-go-round by [livejournal.com profile] one_if_by_land (Ouran), hints of Tamaki/Haruhi and Tamaki/Kyouya, PG
-live through this and you won't look back by [livejournal.com profile] koestenbaum (Ouran), Kyouya/Kaoru, some Hikaru/Kaoru and Tamaki/Kyouya, NC-17
-coming to terms by [livejournal.com profile] turnippatch (Gundam Wing), 1x2 RFO, PG
-The Hellbound Train by [livejournal.com profile] mirabellafic (Supernatural), Sam/Dean, R for gore

Cutest song from the cutest movie. :) ♥

I had to check the edit buttons and huh. ...It bothers me that the next/previous arrows are mismatched. D:

It bothers me too. It looks like they got around to changing only 5/7 of the icons, augh. Non-uniformity!

Update: they match now! 8D

Maybe I should too. I used to read them but most of the time there is nothing of note, or nothing that interests me.

Thanks for the recs Mei :)

It is time to reflect how my attention in fandoms has wandered again! I like sharing fic I read so it is not a problem at all. :D Aside: I signed up for the latest round of [livejournal.com profile] blind_go. Oh man, I will force myself to start writing non-kpop fic again.

Fandoms change like the passing breeze sometimes. One day you're utterly obsessed and neck deep inside the fandom and the next day you just randomly click on a link to a fic of different fandom and hours later you have a new/old obsession :D Good luck!

It is fun this way - a variety of fic to read! :D

Thank you~ I will need to come up with a good idea first. Eventually.

I'm glad I wasn't the only person mindfucked by this (and I too have my oldschool bar keke).

Seriously, I am so used to my old bar I move automatically without reading things and ended up under My Stuff - Inbox 3 times in a row because I wanted to post an entry and didn't realize they'd shifted the navigation. ;;

lol I was so confused this morning when I saw LJ. I don't like these changes :|


Ponyo was such an adorable movie. Love Miyazaki's stuff, but I hate what they did with the English version of the song. They autotuned it D:

It was so happy and cheerful compared to most of Miyazaki's films, which have darker themes.

...yep, this is why I only watch things subbed the majority of times. The song is so cute in the original Japanese! They treat voice acting with much higher standards over there.
