Ugh, body, can you just give me a break for a while? I was so happy that my elbow was a bit better after my physiotherapy session, but now my left hip is giving me a hard time. Google tells me that in English it’s called “greater trochanteric bursitis”. I saw a doctor and have medicine, so hopefully it will go away soon. *sigh*


Good news is that my Muse is wide awake and full of energy now. I wrote one short treat for Candy Hearts. And I started Dare You To Death Kamin/Jade fic. This is definitely not a good drama, but it is entertaining and I don’t have to think too much when I watch it.


I also love this spoiler.Aou and Boom, my beloveds, appeared unexpectedly in episode 5, appeared again in episode 6 (and wow, Boom, that was a great fighting scene, I’m impressed), and apparently they will be in the rest of the episodes, too. Yay.


And my beloved GL ship LMSY will have a new drama. Here is the pilot trailer:


It’s a romcom about a spoiled, rich city girl and a down-to-earth hardworking farm girl falling in love. With a lot of cute animals. I can't wait. 😊

I've been slowly making my way through some of the new vids from this year's Festivids and, oh, do I miss vidding. A song that I used in a vid myself years ago came up on a Spotify playlist earlier, and I could still pretty much see the entire vid playing in my head as I was listening to it.

Part of me really wants to try to get back into it, but I know that I don't have the spoons for it. Not right now. I'd basically be starting from scratch when it comes to the various programs needed to properly vid, and even if I were to somehow get the spoons together to go to the trouble of getting everything I'd need? I'd still have to find the time for it. I barely have time to write fanfiction sometimes, and I can fit it in at work or on the bus - neither of which would be an option with vidding.

But, oh, that doesn't make me miss it any less.

This is my favourite kind of established relationship fic, exploring the "learning how to be together" phase of a relationship. Sweet but in a believable and not too sweet way. This one contains some spoilers for The Long Game, but is mostly set after the end of that book.

Mod Post: Off-Topic Tuesday

In the comments to these weekly posts (and only these posts), it's your chance to go as off topic as you like.

Talk about non-comics stuff, thread derail, and just generally chat among yourselves.

The intent of these posts is to chat and have some fun and, sure, vent a little as required. Reasoned debate is fine, as always, but if you have to ask if something is going over the line, think carefully before posting please.

Normal board rules about conduct and behaviour still apply, of course.

It's been suggested that, if discussing spoilers for recent media events, it might be advisable to consider using the rot13 method to prevent other members seeing spoilers in passing.

The world situation is the world situation. If you're following the news, you know it as much as I do, if you're not, then there are better sources than scans_daily. But please, no doomscrolling, for your own sake.

A shout out to all in Minnesota who are doing a spectacular job of peacefully pissing off people in power (That came out more Stan Lee than I expected).

More of the Epstein files were released, and I've lost track of what is being released to distract from what because it seems to be a Möbius strip.

In what I think must be a first, Disney+ dropped all the episodes of their Yahya Abdul-Mateen II led "Wonder Man" series. One might suspect lack of confidence in their product in not even giving it a weekly release.

On the plus side, The Muppet Show special airs this week, and I think we all need something like that right now.

A documentary about the current FLOTUS also arrived to be greeted by reviews which were a gift to the sarcastic (My favourite remains "If they showed this as an in-flight movie, the audience would STILL walk out") and lots of photos of empty cinemas, though it did manage to get bums on seats in the US.

The Grammy's happened but, since my musical awareness rarely extends beyond oompah-bands and/or Himalayan throat-singing I don't feel qualified to comment.

Ugh
