3 unconnected points

1. Tattoos. Check out the 'abstract' section, I am in so much awe. I've been thinking again lately about what I might want from a tattoo, and that's certainly a step in the right direction for my thought process. There's also one under 'modern' which uses negative space, and while the design isn't something I would personally want that negative-space idea is interesting. (I am as yet uninked because I take the design decisions involved Very Very Seriously.)


2. We have watched 11 episodes of Sailor Moon and been impressed by how little has happened. You guys, not only is it monster of the week, it is the same monster every week. They almost talked about the plot a couple of times but then they decided not to. So uh, maybe we're taking [personal profile] crystal's advice after all and skipping forward some before we snap. (It's a conflict, you know - we're kind of obsessive in a completist kind of way, and so don't want to miss things, but on the other hand.............. uhhh...............)


3. I seem to have spent last night in a series of different and largely unconnected dreams about gender identity. I think I identified differently in all of them, basically, and it was always an issue in some way.

Dear brain, please lay off. I spend enough time worrying about how to present myself on any given day when I'm awake.

*deeply amused* Yeah, see, you have to fast forward past all the monster fights. All of them. You won't miss a thing.

Well, except you might be amused by the priest-turned-monster, somewhere in the second half of season one, because there's some very entertaining puns and world play going on. But the rest of them? Fast forward. It compresses the story marvelously.

Agreed. Sailor Moon really is best watched on VHS I've realized, because then it's so easy to fast-forward. On DVD all the bad animation bits are too visible and you can't skim the fights and transformations as smoothly
