I was so excited that waxjism made a post yesterday that I made her like sixteen new icons today because when she was looking through them last night, we were laughing about how old and how long out of date most of them were to her recent interests. Wax always (usually) has made icons for herself before, but she's so lacking in motivation that I knew she'd never choose to spend the time doing that instead of reading stuff about Roswell New Mexico. Also I thought if she had some icons about shows she really likes she might be motivated to start uploading icons and then maybe she would upload one of the hand-drawn text ones I made for her, and then I could see which one she likes the best (she plays it close to the chest). So far this hasn't worked, but you never know.

I THINK this is more than the total number of icons I've made for myself in the last... 3? years. I did delete some and reupload some old icons recently, but I haven't made any new ones that I wanted to use in ages (except the bakelite radio and the William Morris wallpaper)(I don't count icons of my own drawings here... not sure why, but... I don't).

Wax likes Timothy Chalamet, and The Expanse and Babylon Berlin a lot, and neither of those shows has been canceled yet!, and they're both prestige tv. Actually I couldn't find any good hd stills from The Expanse, presumably simply because their marketing department sucks, because if you capped it yourself you could get tons. But there were plenty from Babylon Berlin, which I don't watch because I don't watch things about the Nazis and probably wouldn't like because I don't like things that are that dark and depressing, but it is beautiful to look at. In fact it's production designed by my hero, Uli Hanisch, the production designer of The Queen's Gambit, Babylon Berlin, Cloud Atlas, and Perfume. (There are some other great production designers out there, but he's my favorite contemporary one whose work I've seen).

But my point is, I haven't fannishly identified with anything (well, anything that is a fandom and not like, an architectural movement) comparably since... Hannibal and Black Sails? IDK. Now this seems kind of sad.
