Caps: How I Met Your Mother 2.16 - Stuff // 'Just the Boys on Leashes'-Edition
swordfight
[info]joan_waterhouse
I watched How I Met Your Mother S2E16 "Stuff" the other day (hat tip to [info]aki_hoshi) and I have only three words for you: Boys on Leashes!

For those who don't watch the show, the backstory is this (highlight to read spoilers): * Ted's girlfriend Robin got all her dogs from ex-boyfriends. When Ted finds out he can't stop himself from seeing the ex-boyfriends instead of the dogs. *
Result: pretty, pretty visuals!

Quick Smoochfest Rec: Public Service (H/D, PG-13, 2800)
Kara + Barolay
[info]joan_waterhouse
A quick Smoochfest Rec before I go to bed. I'm still planning to compile a complete Smoochfest Rec-Post once I've read everything (read: never. *sigh*) but this fic is too funny to keep you all waiting.

Title: Public Service
Pairing: Harry/Draco, (background Ron/Pansy)
Rating: PG-13
Word Count: 2800
Genre: Humour

Summary: Harry is trying to survive the Welcome-Back party Pansy is throwing for Draco, who came back from France quite changed. Thank goodness George has his altruistic day.

Why do I rec this? I grinned, giggled and snorted through the whole fic. It's fast paced and hilariously funny throughout. If you look for a thoroughly entertaining read this is the place to go.

Quote:
So a bloke comes back from France with sexy tight clothes and sexily elegant mannerisms and an affected, yet sexy, accent and people all of a sudden think he's... sexy? Harry was having none of it.

Watch the first HBP clip!

[info]joan_waterhouse
If you want to watch the first Half Blood Prince clip head over to io9.
It's the "Ron eats the love potion chocolates"-scene and I love it!

Even if it's not my ship at all I can see loads of vid and icon material for the Harry/Ron shippers in this scene. ;)

A Smoochfest Rec: Two To A Tent (Harry/Draco, R, 7500)
Kara + Barolay
[info]joan_waterhouse
I just read the loveliest "Harry and Draco have to share a room"-fic.

It's called Two To A Tent and is part of [info]hd_smoochfest.
In this fic Draco smells delicious, Ron is supportive, and Harry is a little oblivious and at one point does the idiotic things he does to bring a bit of flangst into all this (but just enough to make the end that much better. So don't be afraid!).

I enjoyed it immensly! :) Go and read it! *nudges-you*

First: Smooch Fest - read it! )

Second: DreamWidth - I haz it! )

Rec: Bookmarklet
geeky six
[info]joan_waterhouse
This hint is probably to obvious to even post, but I think it's useful and so I thought I'd share.

Ever followed a link on LJ and ended up on a beautiful journal that was utterly unreadable and you wanted to apply your own journal-style?
You could consider writing ?style=mine after the url and refresh, but that's a bit too much work for lazy people like me ;)

Here's how you create a bookmarklet that does it for you! )

Twitter. There's fandom too!
Kara + Barolay
[info]joan_waterhouse
You don't have a twitter account? *gasps*
But that means you miss out on @slytherinsexgod and @aurorsupreme throwing sexual innuendos at each other! Which you don't want to miss, I assure you! ;) They are written by [info]dysonrules and [info]byaghro. I know you want to read this! *prods-you*

If this isn't enough to get you over on our side, [info]wizrocklopedia posted a list of Wizard-Rockers who are on twitter!

So I caved and now I have a fandom-twitter account: @malfoygroupie (Yeah, I know. *g* But it's true!).

If you want to know my RL twitter username (where you can expect me to post things related to general nerdery, lgbt-pride, politics, computers, sci-fi and my RL) you'll have to PM me. I will tell you, if I know you from around here, it's just that I want to keep fandom and RL separate.
The crazy fangirl flailing and tweets related to LJ will be confined to @malfoygroupie ;)


I'd love to see you all over there. It's fun :D

Amazon is evil
bsg - seriously?
[info]joan_waterhouse
I am outraged! Amazon is coming up with some serious homophobia right now!

They started to remove the sales rank information of LGBT books.
Yes you heard right.

Look at the list of affected books they compiled over at [info]meta_writer.
These are by no means only adult books. Books like an Oscar Wilde biography and other non-fiction got their sales rank-info removed too!

This leads to such horrid results as "A Parent's Guide to Preventing Homosexuality" being the #1 search result for homosexuality on amazon.com.
It also means these books wont show up in general Amazon Bestseller lists, which is nothing but sabotaging the authors.

Again with the software rec. ;)

I just discovered this really useful Firefox plugin: LJlogin. It lets you switch between multiple LJ-accounts very easily.

Rec: Software: Synchronize your selfhosted WordPress Blog with your LJ

[info]joan_waterhouse
I'm creatively procrastinating again. This time by testing WordPress plugins that allow you to crosspost to LJ from you WP blog.

If you've got a self hosted WordPress blog and an LJ, you might want to automatically update your Journal when you post to your blog.

As you will probably know, Tom Felton joined twitter only days ago.
Imagine where my mind went when I read this tweet.
