    by , February 12th, 2014 at 01:14 AM (Space Captain Katsura's Academic Blog (and more!))
    Yup, my first international conference in my career of a student of linguistics. Even though I improvised my paper project few days before deadline since I learned too late about it. Nevertheless, I have ample of time to prepare for the paper proper, and I have to pay the fee till 31st March. Currently negotiating for a discount because I'm disabled student in difficult economic situation.

    Though the snow has started melting down today. The first winter break this academic year was practically spring with 12 C being the norm.

    I scored A from public Roman law oral exam. Amusingly, there were questions about adultery and prostitution tax among many others, but of course I knew it all.

    Some nationalist activist was bugging me on way to my campus, telling me to vote on their fringe far right wing party, and shouting that Vilnius and Lwow should be annexed to ...
  3. Katsura's Neuroshima x World of Darkness Crossover: Introduction

    A short introduction to the setting I want to flesh out and hopefully run a chronicle in it one day.

    2050s, what remained of the United States of America is locked in struggle between two external supernatural threats and between remnants of human civilization who cannot completely put aside difference even with threat of extinction looming on the horizon.

    Damn, probably most irrational fangirls in Bleach Fandom are Rukia ones (especially those of IchiRuki flavor). They are literally wetting themselves that Rukia after few days of mountain training even more bullshit than in typical shounen manga no sells As Nodt's fear arrows just like that, as if they had no effect on her whatsoever.

    by , January 26th, 2014 at 08:02 PM (Space Captain Katsura's Academic Blog (and more!))
    Continuation of my blog series depicting Bleach fandom and its shenanigans observed first hand.

    This entry's topic is Bleachers arguing over the fact why the hell Renji got so powerful from eating and wearing heavy clothes. Some users are discontent about the randomness of the power-up as if the revelation screwed them over without lube.
