Tangent to fandom (dirty politics)
Jan. 17th, 2012 08:46 amAt midnight, the English language version of Wikipedia (along with reddit and a host of other sites) is going dark for 24 hours in response to SOPA and PIPA.
I don't want to soapbox or alienate anyone with my politics, but if either of these bills pass, we can kiss LJ, Dreamwidth, AO3, FFN, YouTube, DeviantArt, and any and all other sites that host fanworks goodbye. So if you're in the US, email (or better yet) call your Reps and Senators and make some noise, or take it further if you're so inclined. Facebook isn't doing anything official, but there's this.
I can't help but see a completely Orwellian future ahead of us if this is signed into US law.

Help New Zealand Auction
Mar. 2nd, 2011 10:56 amAfter a bit of a break from Sherlock fandom, I've signed up for
help_nz . You can find my entry here.
User name: sunken_standard
Examples of my work: Here
What I'm offering: 100 words per USD
Starting bid: $5 USD
Fandoms: Sherlock (BBC)- any pairing (no incest though, I have a squick), any rating, almost any kink (ask in a PM). I'm flexible.
I'll do PWP, Gen, Casefic, Angst, Het or Slash romance; I'll even go darkfic again if someone wants it. Or do a coda to one of my other fics.

So I'm the type of person who never pimps or recs or does anything more than leave weird and pretentious comments on other people's fic, but. I joined a new community.
I read a shit-ton of darkfic (and usually don't comment because I'm a dirty lurker), and now that I've written one myself, I'm more comfortable with that side of myself and want to read more.
So yeah, if you like dark, go check out
221b_after_dark .
That's all.
