at random

There has been much AAAAAARGH of late, all for stupid first world problems (like livejournal taking away my default icon a couple days after my paid account ran out, despite their FAQ saying they don't do that. And no one has answered my support request after a week and arrrrrgh I don't want to delete all my icons just to get that one back, but I miss my book-reading!Chopper :(:(:( And then this weekend I spent, I don't know, 20 hours, 30? handling some OTW stuff, which felt at points like running a bucket brigade with cupped palms trying to extinguish a forest fire. Or several forest fires, because everyone's got their own bugbears, and some are mutually incompatible, and also Googledocs hates me, personally, and yeah, AAAAAAARGH.)

But then there is sara_tanaquil squeeing about One Piece and reminding me why it is still THE BESTEST SERIES OF ALL TIMES. And there has been regular new Homestuck, which is also THE BESTEST in totally different (also sometimes the same) ways (this page made me laugh so hard because, just, AH is just totally GIVING UP and not caring and then Crabdad and hellmurder islands and TINKERBULL NOOOOOOO and I have no idea what is happening because this is just what I expected except not at all and yeah, okay, I know people are like HS whatever overhyped nonsense shut up already; but I have drunk deep of the koolaid and you guys it is sooooo delicious~...)

...And also I want desperately to read the latest chapter of Gintama except, despite it being listed in SJ v51's contents and there being a posted translation so I know it exists somewhere, I have utterly failed to find a raw scan on any of the usual sources. ;__________;
