now what i'm with isn't 'it' and what's 'it' seems weird and scary to me

In my attempt to get back into journaling, I may be taking people off my reading circle! Please don't feel that this is hugely personal, I'm just trying to whittle down the list until I get a handle on dreamwidthing on a regular basis again. :)

Tumblr was good for a while when I felt burnt out on journaling, and just wanted to flick through pretty pictures and gifsets and so forth. And it still is! But now I have come again to the point where I want conversations with people, which Tumblr is completely and utterly useless for unless I want to get into a screaming match with random teenagers about how much I hate that fucking "What Does the Fox Say" song. (And that's another thing, I want to talk to some damn GROWNUPS again, heh!)

So from now on, Tumblr is for playing on the DC roleplaying group that I run with glockgal and that's pretty much it. BTW I will be posting an ad for that RP group soonish, so if you've ever considered a DCU game, please keep us in mind!

I probably got this link from somebody on DW but I can't remember who! Anyhow, I want to put it here so I don't lose it: The Aesthetic Politics of Filming Black Skin.

Also I just put my pillows in the washing machine. If the machine manages them and comes out unscathed, I'm'a do my comforter too. SO EXCITING

I'd heard one should put clean sneakers or some other relatively light weight in the washer to prevent quilt twisting, but never having done it, that's almost as useful as a Tumblr post.

Thank heaven for the subscribe/read split, so I can continue to be present when interesting things dance out of your brain.

I had also heard the clean sneakers thing, but that would require me to either a) wash my sneakers first so they'd be clean or b) go buy some sneakers, so I ended up not bothering with it at all. I'll just take the darn comforter to the drycleaner, heh.
