new tag game: the thing you most often pretended to be as a kid—whether it was a horse, a bride, a queen, a specific character, a knight, a lawyer, a baby, anything—is symbolically representative of you currently. what is it for you?

Confession: The letter “t” key on my laptop has been broken since 2024. From what my research tells me, they can’t fix individual keys on that model, and my laptop is no longer under a warranty, but it seems foolish to fork out over $900 for a new computer, so instead I’ve trained my brain to hit ctrl+v every time I want to hit “t.”

But sometimes I have to copy-paste something else besides “t,” which means I need a readily available place to copy the “t” from.

My first thought was to search “tiger” on Google, but if you can’t type the letter “t,” you just get search results about Bob Iger.

I realized words that end with “t” are easier for Google to autocomplete, so the first one I thought of was “crypt.” But wouldn’t you know, googling “cryp” takes to you to cryptocurrency results, and I REALLY don’t want my algorithm thinking I google that multiple times per week.

Then I remembered a cool place I went in London, called Cafe in the Crypt. It’s exactly what it sounds like and located below St. Martin-in-the-Fields Church. When I type in “Cafe in Cryp,” Google does indeed autocomplete it effectively! So I either keep that search result open in a tab or Google it every day.

So, that being said, if anyone works for St. Martin-in-the-Fields Church’s marketing department and has been utterly flummoxed by an IP address from Virginia that has googled their cafe hundreds of times over the past 6 months… that wasn’t a bot, that was me.

I am the Spiders Georg of Cafe in the Crypt.

Anyway, it’s a pretty cool place to check out if you’re ever in London. Just maybe not cool enough to Google it on a daily basis for months straight.

I truly truly believe that the most important thing you can do in fandom is be a cheerleader. comment on fics. reblog art and rave in the tags. support the people making the things you want to see. this is how you keep a fandom alive. this is how you get more of what you want. you never know: that person could have decided to make more just because you liked it.

ben browder: claudia can actually have a tear stand on the end of her eyelash for up to six minutes.  it’s the most remarkable thing you’ve ever seen.  she can run through a battle with the eyelash tear hanging there, run into a close-up, and then the director goes, “now!” and the tear drops. claudia black: that’s not true, but it’s funny. ben browder: it’s close to the truth. claudia black: i freaked brian henson out when we were doing the miniseries, because he went, “okay, claudia, that’s creepy. you did it exactly the same, in exactly the same spot, on exactly the same line every time”. and i’m like, “well, you know, five years on farscape.” ben browder: and you said, “would you prefer me to do it with the other eye?” claudia black: exactly. “the left or the right, mr henson?”       -  “the way we weren’t” commentary

Sad that "don't know him" won, this is the guy to whom Beverly says something like "you should draw instead of killing people" when she sees his art and he just goes "I can do both", icon tbh, I could never forget him and his poorly done grey hairstreak </3
