- Got my hair cut for the movie (hey SAG people, do I get any $ for having had the wardrobe people take about 6 inches off my hair? I can't remember). It looks really good, but it's very cute and femme and allows me to "pass" in the world in a way I'm not entirely comfortable with. It's very starlette.

- I am sorry (in an abstract way) if I've contributed to any misery you are feeling in the wake of the OSBP. I think it's got everyone wound up: often more than we've expected and everyone, including me, feels a little miserable.

- Got glutened yesterday.

Dear Torchwood Fandom,

Please to be learning the difference between empathic, empathetic and telepathic.

Also, can we stop with the Gwen bashing? Not liking her is cool. Letting your story reflect that is fine, but "let's be mean to Gwen because she's an icky girl and have lots of sex" is not actually a premise for a Jack/Ianto fic I can get behind.

What did I tell you about MPREG warnings?

Merci!

a lot of the Jack/Ianto corner of the fandom seems very young and very invested in emotional and physical monogamy -- which also is so not what Jack's character is about.

Yeah, I find that rather annoying. They act as if Jack flirts with Gwen or were to hook up with her then his relationship with Ianto would be ruined. It's like they don't understand Jack's character at all.

One of the things I did like about the episode 'Adrift' was that there were a few scenes in there that very much confirmed that Gwen and Ianto in no way see each other as rivals, since he covertly supports her in something she's trying to do in that episode (covertly because Jack is against it).
