I'm not the only one cranking out the post-Human Nature/Family of Blood fic. Oversight is a beautiful piece.

[livejournal.com profile] honorh theorizes that Heroes is happening in the alt!verse and thus has an intriguing Rose/Claude piece with Survival.

[livejournal.com profile] parrotfish has What Must I Look Like To You, one of the few to go into the Doctor's thoughts on his side of things (as opposed to the Doctor's thoughts about John Smith's side of things).

Outside of Who fandom, apparently there is some shock and horror that Ray Bradbury says that Fahrenheit 451 is about how TV ruins the love of literature is not just a polemic about government censorship. That anyone can be even surprised by that only goes to show that they haven't read anything else of his... and the backlash makes me understand why Bradbury has gotten so sniffy about intellectuals. Ya think maybe a prolific author who wrote about one concept in the context of another has just maybe gotten a tiny bit pissed off that people keep telling him that he doesn't actually understand what he wrote in his "one good book"?

ETA: I rather think it's proving Bradbury's point that people want to reduce the meaning of his book into a single phrase in the first place. Any book with sentences longer than "See Spot run" is capable of handling more than one concept.
