liptonrm_backupGood day, f-list!
I have returned from![[personal profile]](https://s.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
hiyacynth's wedding which was beautiful and wonderful and made me cry. *happy sigh* There's just nothing like celebrating two wonderful people who are so in love and so happy together. It was all just made of win.
And, bonus, I was not involved in the planning, preparation, or actualization in anyway, shape, or form so I got to sit back and let the good times roll. And roll they did, indeed.
In other news, I have finals this weekend. And I'm annoyed because studying for those is cutting into Big Bang writing time (as in, I've strictly imposed a Big Bang Writing Ban on myself until finals are over). As you can see, my priorities are exactly where they should be. Since law school is only the rest of my life, but fandom is forever. ;-)
Speaking of, saw Show last week. My only two comments are why with the Whore of Babylon, Show? Why oh why? On a good day you get to kill a Whore, Dean? Seriously? *facepalms* And Castiel is going to be so super-pissed next week because he's the only angel allowed inside of Dean.
Also, I would like to point you all towards this meta which is an interesting analysis of Show's female representations and the deconstruction of the uber-masculine heroic ideal that is so prevelent in American media. I will say that never before have I seen a show where one of the two heroes is so strongly portrayed as suffering from PTSD and clinical depression. Generally male heroes are not allowed those kinds of [girly] illnesses, and yet here is Dean, trying to cope with them both.
That's why I love fandom, because there are so many smart people who say smart things, and people can actually discuss differing points of view and media interpretations without calling for the torches and pitchforks.
Okay, I should really go study. If I can't let myself go golfing I also can't spend all day puttering around on LJ, no matter how much I want to. Studying, yeah, I can do that. Sure.
