As someone looking on from outside the fan communities directly involved in this mess, the whole thing unfolds something like a live action version of the phenomenon Justin Kruger and David Dunning discuss in their “Unskilled and Unaware of It: How Difficulties in Recognizing One’s Own Incompetence Lead to Inflated Self-Assessments” ]
My world has been more insular this week, and today took a turn for the surreal-but-good. That thing I almost threw out as junk mail turned out to be a legal form from an old employer... who is going to send me slightly over $1000 if I send the form back with a signature. O.o (It's a complex story involving profitsharing that I don't even entirely understand - but yes, it is legitimate. Even though the company doesn't even exist anymore, having been bought out. Twice.)
And on the fuzzy side, the kittens are getting a little leggier, and provisionally-Ianto's eyes are turning from blue to yellow. They're miniature cats now. *Very* miniature cats.
