LJ Elections and an Awesome “Life on Mars” Vid

lj-elections-and-an-awesome-life-on-mars-vid

While I appreciate that fandom is banding together to elect a pro-fandom candidate in the LJ elections, I would encourage people to take the time to learn about the prospective candidates. I’ve seen a lot of people voting in alphabetical order or for most recognizable name, without realizing that, say, current lead [info]legomymalfoy supported LiveJournal during Strikethrough, while [info]rm made some of the most calm and articulate arguments against it.

You might want to consider reading their platforms and updating your vote.

(Yeah, I don’t actually think that this election will matter. But I like to live in hope, and if anyone can do something positive with the position, it’s [info]rm.)

In happy fannish news, this Life on Mars vid, set to the Beastie Boys’ “Sabotage,” is a thing of beauty. A pastiche of a pastiche! There’s got to be an essay about postmodernism in that. (Thanks to the person who linked it from [info]lifein1973.)

* This Torchwood/Doctor Who mpreg crack vid is one of the most awesome things in the history of EVER. You’ve probably already seen it, but just in case: Papa Don’t Preach by [info]fan_eunice and [info]greensilver.

* Here’s part two of that completely awesome Master picspam from [info]exotik.

I was going to post more, but I’m half asleep and drunk, so I’ll leave it at that.

(no subject)

I’ve spent way too much time on YouTube recently.

Look at all the Pig stuff!

Not to mention all the Jon Stewart stuff. I hadn’t seen that 9/11 thing before, but I really wish I had been watching at the time. And, of course, the Crossfire bit is eminently watchable.

Oh yeah, did I mention PIG TOUR?!!!!!!!!!!!!
