Janet Jackson - All For You

Genuinely, I am really enjoying typing into the html!!! Having LJ flashbacks, and loving it. I've been thinking all day about what I might write into my first proper entry. Feels like I should be establishing some kind of template or expectation. I'll do my best, but I sometimes feel I get a little too carried away with structure and...snip my own nose off to spite my face ongoing, if you know what I mean. Cuts the heart out of the idea of a stream of conciousness activity.

Whatever. Structure! Notable thoughts of the day.

Currently locked in battle with my web dev tools.... I deeply enjoyed our Matrix themed era, but even I get tired of black and green. Perhaps we should go blue... I'm going to try to hit something fresh and Pepsi-like, if you know what I mean? Bit sporty...Fresh in that 90s way. You will see how that goes!

I've been deep in my WIPS. Am I about to shatter every scrap of trust in this tiny spark of a fandom by absolutely dickslapping all [counts]I dunno... five of my readers with 10k of mpreg? Why not! This will teach them some resiliance!

I've been languishing in the waybackmachine scrabbling about for Five popslash...truly Yahoo committed a hatecrime when they binned Groups and culled Geocities. And then they murdered Delicious too...Well. It's on sight.

In more pleasant news, the Geocities Gallery is delightful. It's a thematically organised archive of geocities websites. It's just like browsing pre-google webrings. Yum. Take a look at the pages under the SunsetStrip section for band/musician fansites specificallly. It's a bit messy, but just search each page for the keywords you're after.

Best finds today? Probably this image, which is quite nice:

Possibly the existence of the Scott's Slave Cult... I know. And it's okay. I've poked around and it's very innocuous, don't worry. Other than the concept, which I disagree with fundamentally purely on the basis that Scott fans need to have some self-respect.

I've got that Midas touch...

5ive - It's The Things You Do

Finally slammed together this whole shrine site AND it's my first ever neocities! Don't be too impressed, I use a lot of helper tools and Canva [finger guns].

This is where I'll be posting thoughts and revelations on 5ive past and present, fanfiction updates, nostalgia trips, and whatever else crosses my mind at 3am.

What to Expect

Mostly unhinged rambling about:

  • Boy band lore deep dives
  • Rare fic recommendations and my own horrifying WIP updates
  • 90s/00s nostalgia
  • Snide remarks

Anyway, welcome to my shrine. Stay as long as you like.
