Lian Laughs At Your Pain

Or my pain. Whatever. You know, I don't even remember why I was gonna make this post. I just new I needed to add icons. So I added a bunch since I've made a couple hundred in the past week, no lie. >>;;

And oh yeah, I think this was going to be a post about comic books making me sad. I was so sad I forgot. *sigh* And I think us fanfic writers need to start binge reading old stuff. Like, a book club or something, so we can get inspired by that and fic about older stuff. Yay fix-it fic for the new, but at this point? Fix-it fic is all we're ever gonna write forevermore. ;-;

Yeah, I need to go to bed. College, responsible adult, and all that jazz.

Whatever, Man.

So, last night LJ added a new feature you will notice on your comment-boxes. HATE. A lot. I want Twitter and Facebook to have nothing to do with my LJ, thanks. If you're annoyed too, download this to get rid of it. Bitching at LJ here will probably help get rid of it, like that time they tried to change the front page.

In other news, comics depress me. Only reasons I try to keep up? There's two of 'em: I love the characters, and I love the fandom. Yeah. And I wanna write DC a letter. I keep wanting to, but then I'm told they won't listen anyway, so it's like, what's the point.

I kinda wanna tell them after Lost Days is over, I'm not buying anymore comics from them. Tiny Titans excluded because that's it's own thing, and seriously, it won an Eisner; none of their other shit's winning an Eisner (and if it is? Eisner awards mean absolutely shit anymore, I guess).

I just...yeah, Batgirl and Red Robin make me happy. So does Gotham City Sirens, and maybe Streets of Gotham, but that 4 titles out of how many? I'll even be generous, and add Booster Gold and Power Girl to this because I know they're well written, and I liked them when I kept up with shit when it wasn't depressing me.

And you know what's terrible (other than most of DCU)? Titans titles, I can't even stand to look at them. They're Titans! I...should love them, but I just feel like if they all died now, they'd all be in a better fucking place, and they wouldn't end up like Roy or Lian or... Just yeah, I'm tearing up because I give too much a damn about the characters I read about.

There's this line between death in comics and just being fucking ridiculous, and we know DC crossed it ages ago, but dammit. And you know what else? I hate the fact that buying Lost Days to support Jason isn't going to mean a damn thing. He's just going to be penned by Morrison again in Batman Inc, mark my words, and he'll be Dick's villain, or some shit.

I...have to get ready for class, and I really just wanna write fic and fix everything. ;-; I need a mini laptop, so I can write on the train because if I write fic on paper, it'll never come to fruition (AKA I write too slow for my brain, and words end up missing and make absolutely no sense later; Gloria, you need a VERB in those sentences!).
