In which I say surprisingly little about a few things, and some communities.

But first, an icon from a Questionable Content comic, because:

1. That panel with Hanners and Faye needed to be made an icon;
2. I had a lamentable lack of Hannelore icons; and
3. [insert third point here]

So, icon. Yay.



And now, because I haven't really been doing much that's exciting, I'm going to talk about some comms for a bit. Namely, mine.

apathy_games is very nearly ready for everyone to start playing Lexicon. We nearly have the theme sorted out, and once we've got that (and a name for the damned thing) I can make a wiki somewhere and we can all make stuff up and squabble in-character about it. Hooray, hooray, hooray. (Also: Hooray!)

apathy_books has one post. It's the post template. This is kind of saddening, actually. For everyone who plans to read more books this year, TELL US ABOUT THEM. Or make other people join, and do it instead. That is all.

critique_club has one post, but that's because it's a writing critique comm that was created on the 8th of November. November! Clearly not the best timing. But now, since I've noticed people again posting writings and works of poetry and such, it seems like a good time to tell everyone about it again. As a special offer, since there's exactly one post already there, Rule 6 will be very, very minimally enforced for the rest of February.

nomicide, well, just kind of works (and I personally blame packbat for it not dying like the others), and can always do with more players. If you like seeing laws being made, and enjoy arguing with people, and trying to make and exploit loopholes, then we can always do with more players. If, on the other hand, you like seeing sausages being made, try the Yummy Channel.



And, lastly, I've somehow managed to miss posting about the pancakes and polls of Shrove/Super Tuesday. While I do mean to write at length about the US electoral process it won't be just yet, for I still need to get around to learning about the damned thing myself.

Still, for those of you voting today (um, your time) in a primary, please try not to confuse Shrove and Super Tuesdays. Not only is it inadvisable to eat ballot papers, I'm fairly certain you're not actually allowed to vote on pancakes. Or for pancakes. Unless pancakes are, in fact, your candidate's platform.

I would vote for pancakes. Any candidate promising pancakes has my full and enthusiastic support and the endorsement of whatever the hell I end up calling my cult. I'm sure woodburner will agree.

I guess we'll know what to call the Lexicon game when we finalise the theme? If we go with the Wizards Society of Upper Squibulon we can just call it the Upper Squibulon Guide to... etc.

So would I, actually. Especially pancakes with lesbian subtext or with profit. I'm not so sure about pancakes with ???, though.

And there's a suggestion poll in apathy_games right now, so. Fun.
