A happy and peaceful new year to you. As you may have noticed, I stopped crossposting here last year (take a look at the date and you’ll perhaps guess why), but I’m still posting at Dreamwidth as shallowness. I hope to post some 2022 round-ups over the next few days, if you’d like to catch up.

My fanfiction is available at Archive of Our Own (AO3) and at fanfiction.net (which is still more comprehensive).

The four eps on this disc got better from ‘It’s Raining Men of War’, to ‘Crime Every Mountain’ to ‘Who Let The Dog Out (Cause Now It’s Stuck in a Cistern’ and ‘A Christmas Car-roll’.

I posted about The Masked Singer on my DW account, how my guesses had gone since the first weekend and my reaction to the finale.

I seem to have breezed past my 18th LJversary, which means I've been blogging as long as some adults' lives! But in the meantime, LJ has stopped accepting crossposts and Dreamwidth have disabled the option to crosspost to LJ, if I understand things correctly (if you don't follow me on Dreamwidth, you've only missed a whingey post about All4 dropping The West Wing.) I may have contibuted to the problem by being terrible at typing in passwords correctly. I haven't decided what I'm going to do: manually crosspost or post links to DW posts here. Maybe it'll be a mix. I'm pushed for time and find tagging difficult at the best of times, which these aren't.

First recs post of the year. Fic recs in the following fandoms: 1066 And All That, The Avengers (TV), Firefly/Serenity, Inception and Mansfield Park/Piratesof the Caribbean.

( Starts off with funny metafics, a more usual type of fic I rec, a Harry Potter fusion and finally a crossover pairing that really worked for me. Three from the recent Yuletide.Collapse )

I finally saw it! It’s unavoidable that I would have preferred to see it on a big screen, but I couldn’t, but at least I got to see it and it stirred up ‘girls with swords’ and wushu feels.( I liked it, but there were bumps.Collapse )

First I'd like to note that I had figured out the identity of The Mased Singer who was unmasked last night during their first song, and the sing-off just confirmed me in that view.

But anyway, Scorpion season 4 - disc 2. I preferred ‘Queen Scary’ and ‘Go With the Flo(rence)’ over ‘Faire or Foul’ and ‘Sci Hard’was my least favourite on this disc.

( Spolers. I very much enjoyed reliving the plot shenanigans.Collapse ) This entry was originally posted at https://shallowness.dreamwidth.org/483608.html.

I watched ‘Promising Young Woman’ on DVD the other night, and it was even better than I expected, given all the award-bothering.( No major spoilersCollapse )
