Dear AI Fandom:

I kind of want someone to tag your entire fandom with labels, so I could read Column A:

This Is Shipper Fic, Just Go With It
Open Marriages Don't Just Exist in 70s Porn
Divorce Isn't Legal Shorthand For "Die in a Fire"
It's Okay To Break Up With Someone And Maybe Be Single For Five Whole Seconds
You Know What's Fun? AUs!
Sometimes Grownups Solve Things By Talking And Not By Being Cheating Assholes
Everyone Likes Threesomes!
Sometimes You Don't Get to Fuck Every Person You Love And That's Alright

and avoid Column B:

FYI: I Hate Vaginas
Being Alone Means You Are a Miserable Failure; Avoid At All Costs
Let Me Draw You In With Adorable Bromantic Shenanigans And Then Punch You in the Throat With "But Then They Felt Sexual Attraction And Honor Demanded They Never Speak Again" Because This Is Secretly a Victorian Novel
You've Got It Backward, He's Cheating on His True Love With His Wife, OBVS
Somebody Has to Be the Villain And Hey, What Other Word Starts With V?
Grim Realistic Fic Is Grimmer Than Reality, aka, Sucking All the Fun Out of Pining and UST: See, I Told You It Could Be Done.

Then I could read (A) and avoid (B). My fannish experience would be vastly improved.

Love/hate,
Me

You Know, It Strikes Me -

I am primarily on DW these days, because DW seems to actually care about my blogging experience, ie, they give me the ability to crosspost/listen to feedback/give us features that we actually want instead of just surprising us with weird new functions. Also, 200 icons.

This is funny, because I actually had no intention of moving at all; I don't LIKE change. I signed up intending to use my DW journal as a backup only and here I am, 3 months later, and I've got a premium paid account, I'm crossposting exclusively, and of the two, it's the LJ version of my comm that's become the mirror as opposed to the live version.

Stargate Renaissance?

...Kind of. I have a bunch of tabs open, but it's like two new stories/30 old ones.

Leah's penguin-fic totes superior to K.McFad's, IMO.

I need more secession fic. And more fic where they treat Atlantis as a colony from the START. SECRETLY THEY SENT INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO MANUFACTURE BASIC MEDICINES (ANTIBIOTICS BUT ALSO ATROPINE, EPINEPHRINE). VITAMIN SUPPLEMENTS. PLOOOOUGHS. SEED GRAIN AND INSTRUCTIONS FOR HYDROPONICS FACILITY. MEDICAL HAS AN OB-GYN WITH MIDWIFE EXPERIENCE. LARGE QUANTITIES OF THE SGC'S MOST HISTORICALLY SUCCESSFUL TRADE GOODS. MILITARY SURVIVAL GUIDES, THE SGC VERSIONS, WHERE THEY TALK ABOUT THE MOST COMMON THREATENING GESTURES ACROSS THE 89732248 KNOWN WORLDS AND "WHAT TO DO IN CASE OF MYTHOLOGICAL CREATURE ENCOUNTER (TAKE A PICTURE FOR THE WALL OF WEIRD AND RUN, THEY ARE *NEVER* AS CUDDLY AS YOU THINK, NO, EVEN THE HYDRA WAS WORSE THAN EXPECTED AND THAT TOOK SOME DOING)".

Basically, I want an Atlantis-y "Seal Team 13"-thing*, an epic story with LOGISTICS and ELITE SQUADS OF SPECIALISTS and BONDING THROUGH HARDSHIP and my favorite (in this case, Rodney) is in charge but he doesn't think he can do it, but he will, because he will not ALLOW himself to fail and prove Them right. God, can you imagine how different the show would be if Elizabeth had a team and went through the 'gate every other week to find allies, while our team had a week in-city, during which Rodney was in charge? I would read the shit out of that, y'all.

I want more allergic reactions from people-other-than-Rodney! Alien food/bugs/plants = somebody gets screwed!

The General and Dr. Sheppard 'verse gets me all conflicted. On the one hand, I mostly love it; kink + interesting worldbuilding + characters I love, yay! On the other hand, it occasionally hits my squick in that way that only things that push your buttons can, where it's so much worse because you were enjoying and wham! suprise NO. Also, I like every fic in that 'verse, including the ones by other authors, more than the actual TG&DS, because something about the clash of dynamic/non-dynamic universes really bothers me and I can't articulate why, which means it bothers me and drives me crazy.

*The Tenhawk renaissance, on the other hand, is DEFINITE. You guys, he is for me what JoBros fandom seems to be for many of you: 38% shame, 62% PURE GLEE. ST13 has Xander incorporating his supernatural consulting service so as to protect the identites of the consultants from the government. The series is basically TRAINING-LOGISTICS-BUILD STUFF-KICK ASS-WACKY CROSSOVERS-TEAMBONDING-MILITARY TRAINING-LOGISTICS-KICK ASS, I love it.
