I saw New Moon this weekend. It was a damn sight better than Twilight, since it had more plot and more active characters. However, I picked out at least 5 times where it could have ended before it actually did. Also, unfortunately, Robert Pattinson was absent for the bulk of the movie, so I couldn’t stare at his nose.

The next photo shows another GOML I’ve worked on recently. She was original a Yupik Native Alaskan character, Minuk, but she has now been repurposed and rearticulated to be Maggie, Absinthe’s sort-of niece.Continue reading Articulating American Girl’s Girls of Many Lands

…about an envious Goth whose popular and perfect twin sister becomes a vampire? Sign me up for Thicker Than Water: Vampire Diaries 1, not coming anywhere to a theater near you. Clearly I need to see this.
“I’ve got an itch to scratch — I need assistance!”
When Janet sings that line in Toucha Toucha Touch Me In Rocky Horror, she’s talking about an itch to scratch that she herself can’t reach. Did you know there’s a word for the part of your body where you cannot reach to scratch? It’s called “acnestis.” Just reading the word makes me itch.
7.3: “Bang-shi-fu’s Children”
In which Anneka meets Qingting, friend of Chow’s and world’s youngest grandmother.
Dammit.
The CSS on the admin page for my WordPress blog, where I post eps of LHF, is broken, prohibiting me from making new posts. DAMMIT! I don’t know how to fix it.
