Once more unto the breach! I got one of them last year and while I filled some squares, I will go for at least one bingo this year. Huzzah!


This was also crossposted to my pillowfort! Did you know I have a pillowfort? Now you do, I guess. I was planning to switch to there fulltime at some point, because I never really posted much here, but pillowfort does not like custom html in its posts. Boo, pillowfort, boo. You are welcome to follow me there anyway, of course!

Here are some thoughts about two articles I found on twitter and read.

A recent article on Vice showcases the board game proposal "Scramble for Africa", which was taken out of the production pipeline because the game concept is, in general, major Y i k e s. The article is more indepth, but you could basically play as colonisers in Africa, slave labor was implicit but for enough money players could organise (temporary) slave uprisings. Players win by colonising most of Africa.

( Yikes and more subtle racism )

Dear Podficcer,

welcome and greetings! It's nice to meet you! I hope this won't be the last time. Thank you for recording for me, I can't wait until I get to hear the finished product. But for now, ITPE! In general, hopefully this letter provides you with as much information you need to chose a fic to record. But if you are trying to make yourself fit to my tastes and going against your own, let me say I would much prefer that you chose a fic you enjoy! In short: Having fun yourself is the most important thing.( More specifics and fandoms under the cut! )

There's some reader's notes at the end. Wow, I did the second one very hasty. Those two are my first podfics and my accent is somewhat awkward but check it out! If you don't like podfic I would still highly recommend the original stories - I can't think of a better author to get into Superbat and since the movie comes out soon, the fandom might rekindle. :)

I've been kind of silent, having lost my dreamwidth password and have been a bit sick. Nothing serious just regular annoyance that doesn't go away.

In hockey news, the Riveters have lost their playoff series. :( Unsuprising but heartbreaking.

Also, the all hockey hair team came out today and it is non-creepy for a change. I'm very sad that it is getting more professional, but still a classic.

I saw this on tumblr and needed to share this with the DW-only people. If you're a hockey fan and haven't read Check, Please! you're missing out. An adorable comic dealing with friendship, LGBT+ themes, hockey and the toxic culture around it as well as love and college life.

Now, some genius has been making some songs for a hypothetical musical adaption. They're amazing.

( Three of five vids under the cut, because I couldn't decide!  )

First off, I went to Regensburg this weekend to visit a hockey fandom friend! Yay! I had a great time, we watched the local home game between EVG and Deggendorf right above the penalty boxes. Fun times. The rest of the trip was playing board games and going to the christmas markets together. It was a good weekend and I needed it.

I brought some stuff for her and while I was in the bookshop I got lured into buying a wonderful edition of the makura no sôshi by Sei Shônagon. Bound with fabric, it is drool worthy. A new, complete translation with a lot of nice footnotes and a glossary about stuff like monoimi. So. Worth. It.

If you don't know, this is basically the diary/blog of a court lady at around 1000 in Heian Japan. The whole thing is hilarious - our author knows exactly what she wants and has an opinion on everything. The English translation which we got recced by our profs is McKinney but even if you just read it online, I promise it is worth it. (check out wiki for some sources.)

Which brings me to... Winter Mail! The past years I've been sending out small packages for the holidays to whoever wanted one. Well,I'm calling it mail, because if too many people ask, I need to cut back. Anyway, it is the time of the year again. If you want some mail, tell me here or on tumblr the following things:

- your address
- any dietary restrictions/things you love. I don't care about the why - if you only eat nuts at summer solstice, I just want to know so I can make sure your package is nut free. The more you tell me about your tastes, the more I can work with!
- what kind of holiday greeting you might like - if you don't tell me, I'll go with the standard "Happy Holidays".

Please tell me until... the 8th, let's say? So I can get the stuff ready

And, at last, NHL AllStar Game Voting!

So, I'm very much a fan of vote someone ridiculous. It makes the game more interesting and honestly, I feel that P. K*ne being voted in as captain is way more of a stain on the integrity of the process. This years early leader was John Scott and then he told us he would rather not attend yesterday. Bummer :( Jagr also said he's "too old" but Teemu took one for the team and convinced him slightly otherwise.

But say those two are not going, who else can we single out? Some suggestions:
- Goalie Captains! Which is a great idea. If Jagr won't go, Luongo seems like a good choice.
- Claude Giroux as Metro captain for that Grilled Cheesby factor! When else could we have him captaining Sidney?! He would also be an excellent troll.
- Sidney Crosby himself, just to make sure he can't skip another ASG.

I've also seen Erik Karlsson voting, which would be great since he hates 3-on-3 but honestly, in the Atlantic I find it hard to vote for anyone but PK Subban who was ROBBED last year by the NHL. It's a travesty and he should go. Nuff Said.

Feel free to input any other interesting/horrible campaigns we might do! I still don't know how to trump K. as the central captain - really, he's  going to be there, ok, but the fans do NOT need to do this. We should figure something out.
