This post is not at all random: All these things were in my head today :P

• So, thanks to the Geek and Sundry channel on YouTube, I've discovered this show called "The Guild." I like it. It passes the Betchdel Test. But it's still bothersome in its ableism. Being a fan of problematic things is tricky enough when you're viewing from the comfortable distance provided by privilege, but it's squirm-inducing when you're a fan that's targeted in the jokes, and you find yourself still laughing... even if it's not at those particular jokes.
  
  
  • How sad is it that I identify most with Zaboo, arguably the most socially inappropriate of the bunch (he seems to have improved over the seasons, though)?
  
  
  
• I seem to be going ahead with Camp NaNoWriMo Here's what I've got up, so far, as a novel synopsis (Definitely subject to change). Yesterday (I think, might have been the day before) I decided:
  
  1. That it should be a book of Shakespeare's sonnets, and
     
  2. When it forms the silhouette form of itself to explore the world, it will shape itself into a little mini-Shakespeare-shadow, based on an illustration in the book, about three inches tall. Cute, right?
  
  
  
  • Monday, I learned the technical term for the size of book I'm thinking of: If it was born in Britain, it will be a "Medium Sixteenmo" (for serious!); if it was born in America, it will be a sextodecimo (seriously! Ain't language silly?)
    
    
  • Still not sure what will happen in the story, but I suspect the phrase "They Fight Crime!" will fit into the synopsis sooner rather than later...
  
  
  
• Dragons!
  
  
• Ice Cream!
