Oct. 25th, 2005 10:29 amI know a couple of you on my flist have started and/or are involved in these, so I have a question:
What's with all the new "friends only" fanfic communities? Are we morphing into the "Queer as Folk" fandom and no one told me? Is it because of "adult content"?

Aug. 16th, 2005 01:30 pmThe worst of Buffy is still the best of television. I read that in Entertainment Weekly a long time ago, and I still wholeheartedly agree with it. Do I have my fave and least fave eps? Sure. But even my least faves have a moment of brilliance that make me think, yeah, that's my show.
