Blah blah BLAH

• I am watching Transformers. Megan Fox is kind of hot, Shia Leboeuf is kind of not and the cg effect of the cars/machines turning into the autobots and decepticons is kind of mesmerizing.

• I am sadly obsessed with Ke$ha's Blow and am still flummoxed by the video. No, seriously, what's going on there?

• trekreversebang claims go up tomorrow. *flexes fingers in preparation*

• Kurt is TALLER THAN BLAINE. Blaine is SHORTER. Just because Kurt is the way he is doesn't mean he's shorter, or frailer, or weaker or whatever offensive stereotype that manages to be both homophobic and sexist at the same time. Bleh >:(

• I need a haircut.

• I wish I could draw metal well. Anyone have any tips or recommendations of art with well depicted machines/metal?

I get really frustrated with that subset of fandom that always wants to exaggerate the smallness of one character and turn him into a tiny, weepy, frail almost-child (and usually exaggerate the largeness of the other guy in the pairing, turning him from an ordinary tall and muscular guy into a giant hulk with minimal verbal and emotional abilities)--and this is even worse, actually reversing the size difference. So wrong!

Frail little Daniel Jackson, dainty little Jensen Ackles...it's kind of hilarious till it becomes really irritating.

And yeah, that's even worse. In fic and in art, it bugs me so much. And not just fandom, photo shoots, album covers too. Ugh.

And it's such a matter of context! Dainty little Jensen is very close to the same height & build as huge, hulking Jim Ellison from The Sentinel. I fear seeing a lot of this height/size stuff in Hawaii Five-O, but Danny is such a butch little dude that it seems ridiculous.
