Confession: I sometimes like to pretend my one bjd is a Princess and that I must serve her. She is precious, she was the goal I long searched for. Now I must supply her heavenly court of lords and ladies.

This one made me smile. And I love the photo it’s with!
Starting outfits for the five player classes in Diablo III. Keep in mind that you cannot change the appearance of your character in any way at the beginning. You are stuck with the hair/face/body type assigned to you by Blizzard. I started out trying to give them interesting names, but got tired of that quickly. Enjoy my WASP-named examples.
Barbarian: I like these guys. The woman is nice and curvy. Their starting armor is similar - maybe not the most practical, but hey, that’s the point of starting armor.
Monk: The female monk has short hair, and I like it. I like the male monk’s beard. Their starting armor is similar; the male monk is half naked. Maybe his footwear is a little more sensible.
Demon Hunter: Okay, now we’re starting to see what we are used to seeing: the female in high heels and revealing clothes. Stiletto thigh highs, really? Still she’s not dressed in a bikini or anything. Her male counterpart has long pants and sensible boots. We get a hint of beefcake at the shoulders.
Wizard: Oh come on now. She looks like she’s off to the beach, and he looks like he’s dressed for casual Friday. Give me a break. At least her heels are reasonable.
Witch Doctor: I’m not sure what to say about this. The woman is depicted as half-naked, attractive, and exotic. Like the barbarian woman, she is fully facing the viewer, but only the witch doctor has her legs spread. The man is similarly half-dressed, but he is old and shaky. You can’t see it in the still, but in the animated screen, he definitely has the shakes. These make me uncomfortable.
What do you all think?
Reporter: I have a question to Robert and to Scarlett. Firstly to Robert, throughout Iron Man 1 and 2, Tony Stark started off as a very egotistical character but learns how to fight as a team. And so how did you approach this role, bearing in mind that kind of maturity as a human being when it comes to the Tony Stark character, and did you learn anything throughout the three movies that you made?
And to Scarlett, to get into shape for Black Widow did you have anything special to do in terms of the diet, like did you have to eat any specific food, or that sort of thing?
Scarlett: How come you get the really interesting existential question, and I get the like, “rabbit food” question?
The respect given to you if you’re a man in the entertainment business, and the respect given to you if you’re a woman in the entertainment business: all perfectly summed up in one idiotically thought out line of questioning.
My hero.
Confession: Well, I AM 50 years old, and frankly, I don’t give a damn what people think. My BJDs make me happy! Nearly every day I interact with them in some way, from changing their clothes to having them watch TV with me. They are my constant companions, my confidants and I’m sure that they love me unconditionally. And they don’t have to be fed nor walked nor have their litter changed. So for those that try to scoff me for “being too old to play with my dolls,” they can kiss my ass!

Preach it, unknown friend d’un certain age!
I assume the top is all the ones they made.
I just hyperventilated. At last a reason to crochet.

This is one of my favorite photos ever. If it does not move you, we cannot be friends.
what if we all keep our blogs till we’re like 40 and we reblog cooking recipes and parenting advice and sly dig each other about weight gain and bald spots
I’m already 40, and I pretty much post or reblog cracky screencap edits, pornographic slashfic,…
(heh) I’ll be sixty on Friday. Look at my Tumblr and see what 60 looks like over here:
Comics. Film and TV. Very, very, very multiple fandoms, both those I’ve been privileged to work in and those I’ve simply loved, sometimes for decades. SF and fantasy, and issues surrounding their writing. Hobbies. Good-looking men (other than the one I married). Clothes. Food. Music. Illustration. Travel. Recipes are way outnumbered by idiosyncratic and cracky humor, gorgeous fanart, beautiful photography, and science stuff (especially the great scientific love of my life, astronomy). Writing issues and cats and the meme of the moment are favored, but older things are appreciated here too, as are terrible puns and other forms of humor.
Age is irrelevant to any of this. Blog your passions, and let the year-digits fall where they may.
Preach it, Diane.
I’m 47 and I’m here for the Animal Crossing blogs, BJD pics, and various fandoms. Pics of goofy animals that I can mail to my kids are just a bonus.
Don’t let your age tell you what to do or what you should like!
About me
When I get a little money, I buy books, dolls, and yarn. If I have any left I buy food and clothes for my children.
