Congratulations Norway! I didn't watch out of general aggressive feelings towards Russia and their gay bashing government, but it's a cute song.

EDIT: Wow, this song really does stick in an incredible way.

It's interesting, lately whenever I go googling for stuff like gayness, feminism or whatnot I end up on this Dutch/Maroccan forum.
While a lot (but not all of them) tend to be awfully conservative from my point of view I find it interesting to see how they try to fit Dutch society with Islam. We talk so much about muslims, but we rarely listen, unless it's the extremists talking.

I don't know what I was thinking limiting this to 5, but here's the rulez:

Pick the top 5 fics that have made a deep, unending impact on you. It can be something that made you cry, angry or happy. Just so long as it's something that really stuck!

1) Retrograde by Martha Wilson.
The fic that got me into SGA fandom. She might have quite unreasonably stopped after ONLY 16 installments, but in my head this verse never stopped.

2) A dish served cold by Kevin H. Robnet
I used to be in trek fandom and I used to be in Highlander and above all I used to be into crossovers. And dish served cold is the best of both Worlds. A clan denial story where Richie Ryan has a falling out with his mentor after he decides that instead of cutting of people's heads, he'd rather found starfleet. It's the kind of premise that can only transcend it's sillyness if you take it really, really seriously. And Robnet does.
I still consider this one of the most beloved stories even though I've kissed both fandoms goodby.

3) Break the day by Ecolea
This fic isn't going to be for everybody. After 9/11 there was a Spiderman issue that featured Marvel heroes pulling people out of the rubble. This story is a little like that. Using Methos as a trope to describe what happened. I figure the author just had to give it a place even if that place happened to be in a piece of highlander fanfic.Whatever she was thinking, for me it always instantly recalls that feeling when I turned on my tv and watched the planes fly into the towers. 

4) Stuck by Kolyaaa!
Stuck just works for me. It pulls on my heartstrings in all the right ways. Reading it is like riding a roller-coaster. Some of Astolats stories do that for me as well, but this is deliciously long and perfect for when I want to kick back and get some instant emotional gratification in small doses. I love me some cliches and Kidfic where Rodney is the kid; WIN!

5)  Logical solutions to inlogical situations by Sardonicsmiley
Yes, despite the major flounce this is still one of my all time favorites. Cuz the truth is, like Atlantis in this story, I also think Rodney Mckay is like a maltreated fluffy kitten and I just want to tuck him to my bosom and make it all better.


I could keep going. I want to keep going and share all the stories I love. Picking a top 5 was agonizing and there are stories that should have gotten a shared ranking, but thems the rules and I decided to stick with them.

If you read this Meme; Copy and share your own recs.

Driver kills four in attack on Dutch royal family at public parade

God. I don't have words.At least it looks like the royal family didn't have the kids with them, (but there must have been countless of children in the crowd).

Edit: Three of the injured are children.

Good deed of the day; Allerting the Dutch Abortion information site that the website of one of their listed abortion clinics (and they do mean abortion clinics), had been replaced with a link page to; a pro-life organisation, baby yoga, pregnancy gifts and pretty much everthing else to do with babies except abortion! Curious for a site called; Abortusinfo.nl, to say the least.

Not in my fucking country, you bastards.

I've written a little something for john_farr 
If you haven't been following John_farr. It's a SGA AU where all Earthlings have a mating cycle thanks to the Goa'uld. John is either: frigid, fucked up or both and Rodney is the SGC bicycle, because he hapens to be compatible with EVERYBODY and not having sex during your cycle can cause psychoses.

The chronological story so far is here (not entirely up to date, since its hard to keep up with the authors)

Title: Something pretentious
Author: Korilian
Pairing: Rodney/various ppl. Siler/Sarkozy
Ratings/Warnings: nothing saucy.
Word count: 2700+
Summary: Rodney sometimes thought that people were starting to get a little blasé about the whole thing.
Timeline: This takes place right before Won’t let go We know why Elizabeth fought to get Rodney (possibly ;), but why did the SGC relent?
AN: I like Keller honestly. If she comes across a little callous it's because, in 'A Burning thing', she struck me as someone who's far to cheerful about the whole thing :).

I won the Art challenge of the month February over at hp_fringeart , which not only came with this awesome banner, but as it turns out an actual prize!! Whoohoo!

Dollhouse has finally arrived. The pilot hasn't managed to turn me into a rabit fan, but then again, the Buffy pilot wasn't that spectacular. And God knows Firefly's pilot (or that bland, generic ep they aired in its place) wasn't anything to write home about.

I'll give it a season if the Network will.

Last of the mermaid series. Original this time. This one was mostly an exercise in coloring (though it was wonderful to get back to drawing girls. I must figure out anti-aliasing though.



Clicky for bigger picture

It's always a blow when fandom fails me. I still remember my crushing disappointment (and disbelief, cuz come on, it's totally canon you guys!) when I found out there was no Psychic Greg fic in CSI fandom. And now it's starting to look like no one wanted to play with Larry Tolson; Sanctuary Psychopath, who wanders around axe murdering people for sapping his psychic energy (or something). I realize he only got a 30 second part, but he's played by David Hewlett!

I want Tolson fic! *snif*
