Last night I went out with some friends. It was a good night.

Unfortunately, they live in halls in Kentish Town, and I live near Caledonian Road, so we had to get different night buses home. I don't mind getting the night bus by myself - I mean, it's not my favorite thing in the world, but plenty of people on it at that time and I was sitting near the driver so I felt quite safe. Plus they have CCTV on the buses in London.

( Cut for possible rape triggers )

So I made a few banners for dark_fest:

 



Feel free to repost and pimp out the fest :D

So I tried to post this yesterday, but LJ was being a cock and ate all my formatting. LET'S TRY THIS AGAIN.

( It's time to do it now and do it loud! Killjoys, make some noise! )

As usual, feel free to use, credit is lovely but absolutely not required :)

Oh LJ, why are you being such a cock?

It's not like I just spent 20 minutes formatting that post for fun, you know. But no, you go ahead and eat all the formatting.

Grr.

GUYS GUYS.

dark_fest is running again this year!! :D :D

And this time I've actually heard about it early enough to be able to submit prompts, yay! So, anyone else going to write for it this year?

(Also, smthwallflower, it's now a year since we've been friends <3 )

Okay so the other day I downloaded the new MCR album. I only got around to proporly listening to it today, though.

It is epic. I've had it on repeat all day.

It's a concept album (and right away, that's pretty much guaranteed to make me obsessed... lol), set in a dystopian 2019 (and that's a second way to make me obsessed, dystopian futures make the best stories <3 Why do you think I love Dollhouse so much?). It's about the Killjoys (played by MCR) who're a gang rebelling against Better Living Industries (or BL/ind) who control the world (I think? It's set around "Battery City", which BL/ind definitely control, and the zones outside the city suffer from severe acid rain and radiation and I don't think there's anyone left further out).

ANYWAY.

This is my favorite song:


They've also made a BL/ind website, and on youtube there is a series of broadcasts that are shown on the TV in Battery City. Oh, and this music video continues the story from the one above. :)

So anyway, I'm completely geeking-out over the Killjoys xD I'm currently making a batch of icons (see the icon for this post), which is always proof I've fallen into obsessive-love with something!!

Speaking of icons, did LJ randomly give everyone more icon space? Or did someone gift me icon space and I just didn't notice? (I'm very sorry if that's the case!!) It's just I went to upload some Killjoy icons, and I KNOW I'd maxed-out my icon space before but now I've got, like, five gaps. I am confused.

Oooo, Na Na Na's just come back on on iTunes <3

Does anyone want to prompt me for fic? I'm so blocked right now :(

Fandoms: Dr. Horrible, Dollhouse, Firefly

Thank you to everyone who gave your condolances yesterday, it meant a lot. :)

ilu guys <3

[15] The Guild (Do You Want To Date My Avatar)
[20] Doctor Who (Series 2)

( Icons under the cut! )

So the extemely awesome Captain Ska have created a song about the Coalition: 

 

How true. Especially loved the Thatcher/Cameron part - no matter what he says, the Nasty Party haven't changed and they never will. So retweet, post on facebook, join the fb group, and download the song. All proceeds go to charity, and if you're in the UK - let's see if we can make it the Christmas number one.

It's not going to stop the cuts over night, but maybe it'll give Cameron and his little lap dog something to think about - people are getting angry, and come the next election? They're going to pay.

So because I'm a nerd I've made a Dr. Horrible fanmix :)

ETA: Wtf is up with LJ's formatting at the moment? I just had to hand code the LJ cut and every single paragraph break in this post. There were a lot of paragraph breaks...

Dear Santa... Dear Santa, This year I've been busy! Last Sunday I helped kproflostsouls across the street (6 points). Last month I put money in stolensmile14's expired parking meter (14 points). In March I gave lilithisbitter a kidney (1000 points). In April I pulled over and changed gibbous's flat tire (15 points). Last Saturday I turned smthwallflower in for tearing the tag off a mattress (3 points). Overall, I've been nice (1038 points). For Christmas I deserve a shiny red ball! Sincerely, sazz_k
