So do you know why people keep linking you things they think you'll enjoy but which you've already posted about? Why, it's because you managed to post it privately. Smooth.

1) Good Fourth Walls Make Good Neighbors

In responses to this piece of artwork, I keep seeing one thing and not seeing another thing which I want to address, even beyond whether Supernatural outed fans. The thing I keep seeing is that this is obviously an unhealthy, abusive relationship because the wife has to rub her husband's feet to get him to watch the show with her. That's not what I took away from it at all; instead, I took away a loving, teasing exchange where they give each other things each like, not that the husband was forcing the wife to rub his feet in order for him to watch the show. (I'm not sure I'm being clear describing this, but I saw it much more as one of those private jokes, a Sure I'll do this but you owe me type of joke which my friends and family and I do all the time in a loving, fun way.)

The thing I don't see (and would love to read about if anyone has seen it) is the idea that maybe the husband isn't mad so much because the wife is writing queer incest on the internet but is upset because she's been lying to him (and possibly all their family and friends) about it. And yes, I know there are people who don't share their fannish activities with their friends and family and coworkers, etc., because they can't or won't or other things or combinations of reasons, but I do think that the husband finding out that his wife has been lying to him about something that (we can assume) brings her such great joy would be a shock to him.

I'm not sure why it bothers me so much that all the analysis I've seen paints the husband as this evil, dominating person who is forbidding her to do what she wants and that's not what I took away from it at all. I understand what the piece was trying to do (comment on what Supernatural did) but I am bothered by the way only one analysis is really being addressed.

2) Chromatic casting

Most of what's below I wrote before, but this part in particular is new and very important. crossedwires has an excellent post in defense of the chromatic casting meme.

Some awesome people have been doing some awesome chromatic casting for various things. I want these so badly I don't even have words.

My favorite one ever is, of course, st-aurafina casting Michelle Rodriguez as Wolverine because yes, yes, goddamn yes.

handyhunter's Chromatic Marvel casting picspam (I particularly love Gina Torres as Emma Frost, because I think Gina could do amazing things with that role.)

bossymarmalade's Chromatic Marvel casting picspam (I stopped breathing for a second when I saw the suggestion of America Ferrera as Wolfsbane, because it is so very perfect. <3 Wolfsbane.)

liviapenn's Chromatic Marvel casting picspam (Which has Vin Diesel as Ben Grimm, a casting choice I am completely, utterly, absolutely behind. I was left speechless with glee and also the hotness. UNF.)

entwashian's Chromatic Buffy casting picspam

trascendenza's Chromatic Star Trek and DC casting picspam

And since I posted this privately, there has been more talk about it:

Chromatic Comics at Fantastic Fangirls

Chromatic Casting DC

Chromatic DCU casting

National Treasure chromatic casting

3) Marvel comics: Pietro and Scott write letters to each other

This is awesome. Dear Pietro

4) Pirates of the Caribbean

This piece is a couple years old, and I may have linked it before, but I really enjoy it, so I'm linking it here either way.
