Writer's Block: Total Eclipse of the Sun

Hawk:  the hell?

Solar eclipses, like the one visible in India and across Southeast Asia today, have often inspired violence, fear, and superstition in the past. What do they signify to you?

Do you think that animals feel regret?


View 500 Answers



I think some do, definitely. Not cats though, the little fluffy bastards (<3).

In other news, any time I need a disparaging remark made about the Japanese, I can always go to my grandma. Thanks grandma! I'm sure Japan loves you, too.

I'm (more or less) enjoying being home, by the way. It's nice feeling somewhat human again. Also I can has cat whenever I want. Rewatched first half of G Gundam, now rewatching first half of Gundam Wing. Playing FFXII and various KH. Put up shelves in room. Reread Outlander and... Voyager (? the second one). Cleaning room. Plotting things. Watched part of Sailor Stars (the animation is so pretty! Also, Outer Senshi!). Oh! And found my Pokemon TCG Gameboy game (as well as Donkey Kong... Land? The Gameboy one). Man, I missed that game. I'm also now the proud owner of Enchanted, Chicago, Corpse Bride, and... wait for it... the Dragonlance movie. Yes.

So, that's me, more or less. How've y'all been?

What do you think happens to us when we die?


View 500 Answers



Short version: whatever you expect to happen.

Slightly longer version: If you believe in the Christian heaven/hell and such, you'll end up there. If you believe in reincarnation, you'll reincarnate. If you're an atheist, nothing happens. But yeah, I tend to think you'll end up more or less where you're planning/expecting/hoping to go. I also tend to think... or at least hope that you'll also be able to see loved ones who have gone to different afterlives.

And I have no idea what agnostics get to do. Spin the wheel, maybe? I'd like to buy a vowel...

Hmm. Bigotry/intolerance. Dishonesty. Those are the only two major things I can think of, and most of the 'smaller' things I could name fall under one of these two. Er, and abuse of any kind, obviously. Toward myself or others, including animals. (Aka you touch my cats, and I will end you.)

I'm sorry, I just couldn't resist.

Valentine's Day: love it or hate it?


View 500 Answers



It's a nice idea, I guess. In practice, though, I tend to loathe it pretty solidly. (I'm sure you're all surprised.) First of all, while having an official day to celebrate love/romance/gettin' you some/whatever is nice, but there's now this... assumption maybe? that Valentine's is the only day you need to do it. And that's, uh, not the case. And there's also this pressure that OMG YOU HAVE TO CELEBRATE VALENTINE'S DAY whether you actually want to or not. And well... some of us just don't/wouldn't care that much. And then there's this list of acceptable presents, which totally disregards what the individual who's going to get the present actually likes and is interested in. What if you don't actually want flowers or chocolate, you know? And then there's the whole Christianity stealing holidays thing going on, not that there's really any Christianity still left in Valentine's Day. Not even nominally, like Christmas.*

Argh. Valentine's Day is a big ol' ball of fucked up notions of gender/gender roles, romance, ridiculous expectations, commercialization... It's just a big, fucked up ball of bullshit at this point. I could rant all day, but I don't really want to spend my energy on that.

I will add, however, that I really, really don't like how VDay and its participants like to make single people feel shitty for being single. Not having a partner does not make you less of a person, thankyouverymuch.

So yeah. You can laugh at me and make disparaging remarks about my bitterness if you want, but I plan on celebratin Singles Awareness Day on the fourteenth, hopefully with delicious baked goods and/or chocolate. Hey, and I won't even be expected to put out for it, either!

*If I'm wrong, feel free to correct me. I just don't pay much attention to either of these things. :P

Beer and cigarettes once went together like bread and butter, but now smoking in bars is banned in many cities. When you see smokers standing outside bars in the cold and rain, what is your first reaction? Walk on by, join them, or scorn them?

Well, in reality, I would probably walk on by, 'cause I don't generally meander up to strangers and start conversations. But damn, I'd feel sorry for them. This "omg smokers are bad people" thing is really grating. And I don't even smoke. :\
