ishtar79I realise it’s been about a gazillion years since my last update-RL has been on the stressful side, and I haven’t exactly in the mood for fandom, or the Internet, or much of anything besides vegging out in front of old X-Files episodes (I’ve only just gotten into that, btw. Never let it be said that I can’t be decades late to a party).
I need to get caught up on old posts, but since that’s a near-impossible feat, can someone point me to what I may have missed? Fics, wanks, the next wave of 6A’s assitude, anything?
A quick movie rec: I went to see For the Bible tells me so at a Film Festival-it was actually the European premiere, and the director was there, which was pretty cool. It’s a documentary about the Christian Right attack on homosexuality, narrated through the stories of several gay people coming from religious backgrounds. I rarely cry at movies, and I did at several points in this-and yet, despite the heaviness of the subject and the truly terrifying sight that are religious fundamentalists (and I’m still trying to wrap my mind around the concept that these people are for real-they’re such caricatures, they’d be funny in any context besides reality), there was definitely a quiet hopefulness throughout. I recommend it without reservations.

Date: 2007-09-26 08:53 pm (UTC)We got so fed up with that, with we I mean the HoYay people since she was targeting that thread specifically at first, we started our own little forum called 'House's House of Whining' and more and more people are coming over from that place. I'm so happy I can post again without having to triple check if what I'm saying might be offensive or something.
