I was dissatisfied with the introduction I used to have and I couldn't think of a better one. So, uh, the tags should tell you something if you're curious.

I think this is where I should have a quote or something.

368 notes (via neil-gaiman)Tags: ooooh this conversations makes my brain hurt on one hand the original creators should obviously get the credit and the money and whatnot but on the other hand everything is more or less a rewrite of something else so how far back does ownership go? and there's that mixing of fandom and business that is a very perilous thing because when do you start taking unfair advantage of fans? is it when you start earning money for being a fan? is it when you start talking for fandom and being recognized as a representative? oooh my head fandom fanfiction

Hmm. Extensive research has finally yielded a course in Hindi at my university. The question is whether I’m allowed to take it…

1 note Tags: there's also a course in Sanskrit which is very cool but perhaps not as useful to me and absolutely no courses in Irish which is a bit of a shame student shenanigans Captain Obvious of the Understatement Brigade

As many of you know, I recently purchased an Uruk-Hai scimitar.

Well let me tell you, it was quite the pragmatic purchase. It has endless uses in my morning routine.

Such as making the bed:

And assisting me when I ran out of toilet paper:

I don’t know how I survived life without it.

Now, there is a tendency at a point like this to look over one’s shoulder at the cover artist and start going on at length about leather, tightboots and naked blades. Words like ‘full’, ‘round’ and even ‘pert’ creep into the narrative, until the writer has to go and have a cold shower and a lie down. Which is all rather silly, because any woman setting out to make a living by the sword isn’t about to go around looking like something off the cover of the more advanced kind of lingerie catalogue for the specialized buyer. Oh well, all right. The point that must be made is that although Herrena the Henna-Haired Harridan would look quite stunning after a good bath, a heavy-duty manicure, and the pick of the leather racks in Woo Hun Ling’s Oriental Exotica and Martial Aids on Heroes Street, she was currently quite sensibly dressed in light chain mail, soft boots, and a short sword. All right, maybe the boots were leather. But not black.

Remember that short period of time when they sold Fazer Kismet bags, with little squares of Kismet inside.

Those were the days…

Crown Braid Chignon Tutorial

(via OnceWed)

1. French braid front section of hair from one ear to the other. Leave end of braid out until Step 7.

2. Take the top section of hair, tease it and pin securely with bobby pins creating a half up – half down look.

3. Then starting on one side of the hair take a section of hair, twist it and bring it the opposite side and pin it with bobby pins. Make sure to cover the previously secured bobby pins from Step 1.

4. + 5. Then take the remaining “tail” from the section of hair just pinned with an additional section of hair, creating one section of hair, twist and bring it the opposite side and pin securely with bobby pins directly under the previous twist.

6. Repeat the process until there is no longer any more sections on either side and you are left with just the “tails”.

7. + 8. Pin the remaining “tails” by twisting and overlapping, mimicking the overlap twist look.

9. + 10.  After all hair is twisted and pinned, bring the braid into the back and secure with bobby pins. Making the “tail” of the braid mimic the already pinned twists.

11. After all is hair and braid is pinned securely, gently tug at hair creating a looser more full look.

In MJN you don’t say “I love you too” you say “Yes, I am aware. The information has been duly noted. Thank you for your feedback” and I think that’s really brilliant
