    With my child on an apparent WALL-E watching binge I am reminded that it contains a dynamic that is a very particular soft spot of mine:

    Was in a pet shop the other day. They had a big box of things you could throw for you dog. Among them were branded items. Among the branded items were MLP products.

    I'm not sure if it's me, but it feels oddly grim to purcahse a Rainbow Dash exclusively for your dog to maul.

    Suppose there's a possibility they'll be gentle, but still. It's a risk, isn't it?

    For the longest time I was racked with curiosity as to where the TVTropes redirects for And When the Darkness Comes Around were coming from and I had almost given up hope on finding out the source, only to finally discover what it is.

    I will never stop being amused at the consternation and confusion of some when confronted by my mastery of the tagging system.

Also, I'm on Goodreads? How does that even work?

Is there some script pulling me onto there, or did someone do that?

Internet?!

I'm looking.

T'was I, I hope you don't mind. I do use some scripts to make listing-creation easier but I select and review which books I make listings for.

Basically, you're an author. I don't see why fanfic should be considered any less valid a genre than any other, as far as that's concerned. :)

It's cool, I just know nothing about Goodreads or how it works so was genuinely baffled how I showed up there.

Those people are going to be plenty confused, these stories explain nothing.

A benefit of fanfiction, I find, is that unless I'm adding my own bollocks everyone present is more or less on the same page.

Though I'll admit a soft spot for the "act like everyone knows what you're talking about and let them work it out as the story goes along" school, too.

It's basically meant as a book recommendation engine. People rate and review books they've read, and then Goodreads tries to build up a profile of the sort of story they like based on their reviews and recommends books that people with similar profiles have liked. There's also some "social media" stuff for readers and authors to talk about books.
