Wrybread has a Posse.

Why hello there, philes.

I am hosting a "Death Match" in my journal. 50 nominations were voted down to 30, and then 15 pairs were made at random.

What I'm trying to say is, MULDER AND SCULLY ARE LOSING. BIG TIME.

DEATH MATCH, GQMFS: ROUND TWO

Please vote. It may be too late, the alien ship might be above us all in 2012, but a rally isn't out of the question.

Otherwise, Mulder feels like this:


ETA: I have closed the poll. Thanks everybody for voting. In a few minutes, I'll be putting up a sudden death bonus round due to my inability to count. Stay tuned.

GO HERE INSTEAD: DEATH MATCH, GQMFS: BONUS ROUND

Title: And All That Could Have Been (Part 5)
Spoilers: Up to Tunguska
Rating: PG-13
Summary: The aftermath of Tunguska, injured and alone Krycek turns to Marita. How they came to be together, and how it was doomed from the start
Notes: A truckful of thanks to the lovely namarie24 for patiently beta-ing each chapter.

Previous chapters can be found below:

Part 1 - Part 2 - Part 3 - Part 4

I tried searching through the past entries to find this because I'm sure there's a few posts mentioning it but I wasn't lucky.

During the filming of XF2, some of the cast and crew participated in a National Drawing Day (of sorts? Possibly for charity or something, I really don't remember the specifics).. and Gillian Anderson drew a photo that somewhat summarized the plot of the movie.

I used to be able to find the website that all the drawings were up on from previous years and such but I'm not having any luck finding it or the drawing. There was also the musical sheet of the X-files theme drawn by Mark Snow, I think?

Any help would be greatly appreciated! :)

In honor of National AIDS Awareness month, we've added a new charitable vgift. For each red ribbon you purchase for $2.99, we'll donate 100 percent of gross proceeds to IAVI.org (the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative) to support the development and global distribution of an affordable HIV vaccine (we'll cover credit card fees). You can read more about IAVI at lj_cares. While we're on the subject, we raised $740 from our November fundraiser for Love Without Boundaries, which supports emergency healthcare and adoption of Chinese orphans. We thank you for helping us help others.

Photos of the week

We're back with more incredible pictures from our super-talented LiveJournal photographers. Congratulations to ilya_gorokhov, who is the winner of our very first lj_photophile poll.

Thanks, again, for joining us. Stay safe and snug out there!

I'm trying to find out why The X-Files Timeline has the events of "The Jersey Devil" happening before "Conduit" -- they don't give an explanation for how they got the dates. Since "The Jersey Devil" aired after "Conduit," I would assume the events of "Conduit" happened first, but I'm curious as to why The X-Files Timeline has it reversed.

FYI, Decemberlady's annual Advent calendar is up!

Hey Everyone, we are about to run the last alter job that we need to on our database servers. This will effect userpics / scrapbook / vgift images for the next few hours. Have no fear, your images aren't lost, there is just a really intensive process running on the servers which store the information for mogilefs. Thank you for your understanding and all the LJ love...

Hey LJers,

I just wanted to let you all know that we are going to be performing some mogilefs maintenance over the next few days. We will be upgrading our current version to latest stable as well as changing some db config information to better handle the amount of files we are currently hosting. This shouldn't cause a big impact on site stability, but you may see some minor delays with userpic / scrapbook images appearing or other requests associated with our mogilefs. We would love to not have that happen, but unfortunately with some of the steps we need to take we have to cause a delay with images. I figured this was a better solution than taking down all of LiveJournal because well lets face it, we all need our daily LJ fix ;)

Thanks,

I just read this on the BBC news site and it's hilarious! These are attempts by some well known authors to sex scenes.

"It was as if she were wearing a mask on her genitals, a weird totem mask, that made her into what she was not and was not supposed to be..."

...Paul Theroux...

"Her hands were all over me, four hands it seemed, or more than four, and as she touched she made me weightless, lifting me off the table in a prolonged ritual of levitation..."

...Booker Prize winner John Banville...

"She puts her hands flat against his chest and leans into him in a simulacrum of a swoon, making a mewling sound."

and musician Nick Cave...

Bunny lies on his back on the sofa. He is naked and his clothes sit in sad, little heaps on the living room floor

Some truly appalling attempts in my opinion. Flowery language and more than two arms per person really don't work, unless you're on an alien planet getting to know the locals. I can understand how its difficult to do, but either don't do it or put some proper effort in, so to speak. *g*

I just can't help these, I like them and they make me want to fill in all the blanks. As good an excuse needed for travel in my book, though not the most necessary.

Last night in my dream I was directing and starring in a play. It was a one night only performance at the Norm, and some of the other actors were people that I know from Film Soc. I woke up before we went on stage, but scenes from the play are still in my head...and it might need to be written...two days before the end of Nano...when I haven't finished my Yuletide assignment :P

Just a small set, really.
