Stayed up waaaaay too late last night chatting with [livejournal.com profile] sioniann, [livejournal.com profile] xylodemon, [livejournal.com profile] shaychana, [livejournal.com profile] bloodybrilliant, and [livejournal.com profile] fivil. Hoped they wouldn't think I was kind of butting in since [livejournal.com profile] sioniann was the only one I actually knew. Can we have regular fandom chats? I love them so.

Stuck it to the man by joining a GLBT-friendly guild. Take that! (Also somehow went up a rank this week, which surprised me, since I did like a third of the honor I gained last week. Too bad the necklace I've got is better than the Senior Sergeant reward.)

Must go to library. Argh, natural light!

ETA: Oh, oh, I wanted to link this article: Beautiful Madness. Nonsensical tripe about a woman who was cured of her schizophrenia, but -- GASP -- gained weight as a side-effect! OH NOES! "The treatment had reversed a Faustian pact in which Nia had been beautiful and mad, and replaced it with another - in which she was fat and sane. But was it really a blessing that Nia seemed to have no conception of what she had lost?"

This would be funny if it weren't sickening. [livejournal.com profile] bigfatblog did a post about it; the comments from 'joey' are me.


ETA2: Argh, the CD player I've had since the Precambrian Era just died. If fandom was planning to buy me an iPod, now would be a good time.

Fandom chats would be a wonderful thign! I'd love to do something like that. Sadly, Whenever I get on AIM no one is on (wel no, Laverinth is usually on, and sometimes Nasubionna and a few others, but not many)

As for the article, *thank you.* Peopel were talkinga bout this at work, but no one had the actually thing.

God that is infuriating. I think I'm gonna forward it to NEDA's (eating disorder group) media watchdog address -_-

At least people are talking about it and getting some outrage going!
