Mention something, and I'll tell you three of my unpopular opinions regarding it. Like, anything -- ice cream, a person, a character, a fandom, a canon, a book, a weather anomaly, and the Holy Trinity of politics/sex/religion. ANYTHING GOES. Hopefully I'll know at least enough about it to have terribly misinformed opinions about it. Also I mean, they might not actually be unpopular opinions, but I shall try my best to be controversial! I CAN DO IT!

Yes, I too am in the market for a Dreamwidth code, if any of you finds that you have one kicking around.
While I'm on a vaguely similar subject, I got myself an Inksome a bit ago, so if anyone wants an invite for that I can oblige.
Now I shall resubmerge. o_o

My monitor's going all wonky -- things are blurring sideways. Dinking with the brightness/contrast only seems to make it worse.
Post a list of all your roleplaying journal names and explain what the names mean, if anything.
Well, twist my arm, why don't you.

Into book 3 of Regenesis -- I'm taking it slowly, partly because I have other stuff going on and partly because it's a hell of a book.
I would just like to say: Regis and Rafael, huh? Heee.

I'm starting Regenesis. It may be All Cherryh All The Time around here for a bit.
Which means, for those of you just tuning in, me flailing a lot, squeeing at intervals, cries of "You bastard," and ending up with a resounding "WHAT JUST HAPPENED".
Edit: Spoilers in comments, probably.

"And seriously, it's not like cavemen were superterrific OMG hunters either. Mastodon, meet twenty screaming hairy dudes with fire hardened pointy sticks. Rather like our closest living relatives, cavemen most likely chowed on a lot of gathered plant foods and bugs with an occasional bit of meat. Except that makes the caveMEN and their hunting less glamorous and necessary, so nevermind. I'm sure it was a freaking meat festival, and fire hardened sticks and sling-flung rocks were fully as effective as a modern rifle in taking down large prey. The whole tribe just rolled around in an Atkins style frenzy, wearing helmets made of ham."
