go team go:
so, i’m crashing at somethingexploding’s place because my power and heat are still out and she’s amazing, and in a rewatch of s1 teen wolf we realized that we do not know what the beacon hills team mascot is! naturally, the next step here was to google some of the fauna of northern california and come to a decision.

aquadevil asked: I would truly appreciate links to information about race relations and cultural appropriation because modern racism is incredibly complex and I often worry about being in the wrong. This is just my opinion, and I fully acknowledge that I may be very off base, but most people, actually sane, reject the blatant racism supposedly “of the past.” Instead, people seem to practice racism...

please tell me someone in teen wolf fandom has already written a zoolander AU
like, the literal plot of that movie is: a guy named derek, who is an inept male model who only really has one ~look~, gets help from a rival-turned-friend male model (obvs scott) and a reporter with no fashion sense (obvs stiles) to keep him from fulfilling the brainwashing wishes of the evil fashion designer (obvs...

attackofopportunity asked: For the person wondering about "Jesus Christ" as a Jewish expletive: I use it all the time, as did my grandmother. Bubbe's explanation for why she said it was, "When I say that, everyone knows I'm cursing, but I'm not taking MY lord's name in vain." Little self-centered, but whatcha gonna do.

I did like Cheadle’s first line in IM2, which I thought was kind of a nod to the whole recast: “I’m here, it’s me, get over it.”
yeah, agreed, I LOVED THAT. and i also loved the deadpan way Cheadle delivered some of the HILARIOUS CLUNKERS that script dealt him (“Get a roof,” oh my god,...

I was actually REALLY glad when they recast Rhodey, because Terrance Howard is uber gross about women.

So I found this in my words folder, with NO EXPLANATION, dated January 16 2012 and entitled “unfollow me shakespeare.” Posted at amazonpoodle’s insistence; with apologies to Shakespeare, full disclosure that this is a bastardized version of the opening of Act 2, Scene 2 of Romeo & Juliet, and NO IDEA WHAT I WAS PLANNING TO DO WITH IT WHEN I (APPARENTLY) WROTE IT:

“No,” Rhodey says.
Tony rolls his eyes behind his protective goggles and bites down on a smile. Then, remembering that Rhodey can see the smile but not the eyes, he switches it up, frowning and batting his eyelashes. “What do you mean, no?”
“I mean no,” Rhodey says. He raps a knuckle against the suit—the Iron Patriot, Tony thinks he’ll call it,...

a story:
So, once upon a few years ago, in the wake of watching and falling in love with the 2009 Downey/Law Holmes adaptation, I answered a prompt on the shkinkmeme. The prompt requested a modern-day version of Holmes and Watson as graduate students, and the fic I wrote is 45,000 words long and called History, Repeating Itself. For those of you who have read it, thank you—writing is one of those...
