leaving on a jet van

[somedaybitch]

1. transpo to Montana arrives in about 2 hours...if they're black or gray vans with no windows, it's been nice knowing ya'll but Section's finally caught up with me.

i leave you with this amusing bit from a Rusty Davies interview with Metro UK; he's got the right of it. [profanity edited back in because that just drives me batshit]

Do you have a disparaging view of online fandom?

I’m suspicious of any focus group. If the BBC said, ‘we’ve done a focus group of 200 people from Ipswich and asked their opinions’, I’d say: ‘F[uck] off, Ipswich.’ It’s no way to work properly. It’s the same as an online forum, it’s like a focus group. If you worked in advertising and used that as a way of doing your research, your boss would sack you because it’s not representative of the general public. It seems that they’re becoming more powerful, particularly in American sci-fi shows, who seem to imagine those groups are the general public. They are all people of a similar background, similar philosophy and similar take on Dr Who – that’s fandom.

give that man a cigar.

2. the full interview with Rusty is ici.

3. themonkeycabal has posted fic. it's Torchwood/Farscape, Captain Jack Harkness and Commander John Crichton. Hello, Major Tom II is poignant and sweet, funny, no small amount of snarky, and loaded to the gills with simmering testosterone. i have much love. go. shoo.

4. if i can remember how, i'll mobile post from Montana. maybe. :::tries to remember if Section has a substation in Bozeman. starts getting nervous:::

Dude. Montana. That just aint right, yo. You seriously need to convince your film friends that they need to come film HERE. We have tax incentives. And shit that probably doesn't matter much to your people, but still. Someone needs to come visit me.

Have fun looking at the sky and stuff. Fly Drive safe.

Not fair! David stole my line! (I stole his recently, so we're at naughts now)

Are you driving? In vans with no windows? I hope the back is filled with gear because it would be an awfully boring ride if you couldn't look out.
Have fun up there! Look for some cute cowguys! Bye!
