[Also from tumblr.]

→ Speaking of, apparently there's some tumblr backlash going on right now. [1, 2, 3, 4] I can't say that I particularly disagree. In fact, what I would really like to say, is "I told you fucking so." Because I have been saying this shit for a year. I have more to say about the issue, though I'm not planning on taking "the pledge" right this second, but I think I'll save all of that for a post of its own.

→ That being said, if you do feel like you want to try and consolidate your internet habits, you can create syndicated RSS accounts for tumblrs at right here at livejournal and have them show up on your friends list. [If they haven't already been created already.] Every single tumblr account has an RSS feed. The purpose of an RSS feed is to syndicate the content so that you don't have to visit fifteen blogs a day to get caught up on everything that you read. This can be done in a variety of ways and one of those ways is following content through your livejournal. It will show up right on your flist alongside your friends posts.

001. So I don't understand Tumblr. I admit it. I have no idea what the point is or what it's for. Is it just like a blog? Even if someone were to explain it to me, I can't promise I wouldn't continue to be confused.

002. I still haven't found any books in present tense. You Shall Know Our Velocity turned out to be just plain old past tense. Though, I'm still thinking of reading it. I also got this book Rendezvous in Black which looks like it might be a fun read.

003. I was working on this Dollhouse video about two months ago and just gave up. I don't know if I'll ever finish it or any other vid, ever again. It's sad. But possibly true.

004. Regarding Dollhouse. I'm slightly disappointed in the season thus far. I keep waiting for this to turn into a full-on ensemble and it's still just the Echo show. And call me crazy, but the Echo show mostly bores me. (As does the Paul show.) I almost think I wish TSCC would have been renewed instead. It always seemed like a toss-up, but not right now.

005. I really really like Eastwick. Well, maybe I just like Stars Hollow. Haha. Either way, I'm having fun watching this show.

006. I may have signed up for apocabigbang which is just the most hilarious thing ever. I haven't picked a fandom yet, and it's possible I'll chicken out at the last second. But yeah, it's a thought.

007. Stargate Universe. I don't hate it. I am curious to see more. I enjoyed the first three episodes. I like a lot of the characters. I'm just confused and intrigued enough to make this a regular thing.

008. I don't know if I've even talked about it on my LJ before but I was watching The Big Bang Theory at the end of last season. I think I've officially decided that I am going to give it up this season though. I'm just not laughing. Never was much of a sitcom person. Though Community and Modern Family are definitely making me laugh a lot this season.

009. I watch too much TV.

010. I know I promised/discussed a "life" post, but this is just as good right?
