"There are singular incorporeal constellations which belong to natural and human history and at the same time escape them by a thousand lines of flight."

- Deleuze & Guattari


I had this whole long spiel here for awhile that I wrote while trying to get into some community that I now find mildly ridiculous for their pretension at telling me how to be a proper fan. Now it's gone, the ambiguity is back and I'm enjoying that. Throwing out lines of flight wherever I like. Some people call me the space cowboy, some people call me the gangster of love. But you can call me ...mildly obsessed with penguins.


I like to talk. I like footie and am a die-hard baseball fan. Go Giants, World Champions! I'm also a PhD student trying to survive. I spend a lot of time traipsing around reading things, my updates come in waves with long radio silences as I try not to drown in my studies. As such feel free to friend and defriend me at will.


I'm frequently prone to talk about politics, philosophy, race, culture, queer identity and feminism. If you like your fandom completely devoid of such issues where questions are simply sidestepped or ignored, then...this journal is probably not for you.


Fandoms I currently write for follow: Inception, The Social Network, Fringe, The Good Wife, Southland. On a much lesser scale: Generation Kill, Supernatural, Star Trek and Sherlock Holmes.

"What strikes me is the fact that in our society, art has become something which is only related to objects, and not to individuals, or to life."
