- friendshipper: Incredibly nosy TMI poll - Are there just a couple people who are, like me, unmoved by porn? Or the majority? Inquiring minds are very curious! -
- zvi: [in podficmeta] Turn the radio on, turn the radio up -- Good stories for podficcing - What sort of characteristics make a story good for podficcing? Are there any specific writing techniques that make it easier to record? -
- melannen: [in asexual_fandom] Nonhumans and asexuality - So how do you feel about nonhuman or not-entirely-human characters who are treated or described as asexual? -
- jmtorres: slashgen or preslash - I wish people didn't feel like everything needed a pairing label. Also, just because you're slashing them in your own head, it doesn't necessarily come out that way in fic: -
- alchemia: untitled - Most of the time though, I think slash is like Schrodinger's cat... it has both everything and nothing to do with the queer experience; like an individual's gender and sexual identity, it is impossible to know until the author explicitly tells us, and even then, it might change. -
- merrykk: Meta on the ways kink works in kink memes - Fantasies are touchy business--they're personal, people don't always think of them as being in their control (that's a scientific question; I'm not going to venture an answer), and obviously they aren't realistic. Those aspects can come together to make a fic that, while the author thinks it's just plain hot, may easily have the power to completely alienate readers. Desire isn't something easily judged, especially when it comes to non-universal notions like kinks. -
