WTF Tumblr?

For some reason my RP accounts are acting like I'm somehow following MYSELF. I'm getting notifications that "forgotten-vows reblogged this" and "8butterflyboy8 reblogged that" on my dash and I'm like "I KNOW, I'M THE ONE WHO REBLOGGED THEM." It's making it harder to keep track of my threads too, since I don't follow everyone I RP with (dash would become unreadable otherwise) and as a result it's making double notifs pop up. The really weird thing is that it's happening only on ONE thread on Butterfly Boy, and on a bunch of threads (but not all) on Forgotten Vows. What. The. Fuck?

*sighs* Well, in other news, it's been a pretty decent Saturday, all told. Yes, I had my dentist appointment, but it was just a cleaning, and it was over in half an hour. Teeth are still in good shape, yay. I also got my trip up to the bookstore, where I proceeded to spend my gift certificate and another $25 on top of it on new books -- Weird Inventions (which is just what it says on the tin, book about weird-ass gadgets and the like), A Slip of the Keyboard (a collection of Terry Pratchett's nonfiction work), and The World of Poo (a defictionalized version of one of the books from the Discworld -- one of Young Sam Vimes's favorites, in fact XD). Money well-spent, I say, even if I didn't get the next Tiffany Aching book I wanted. Ah well, just have to wait for the next Barnes & Noble coupon to come along, I suppose. . . We also got pastrami for lunch because the mini-mall the bookstore's in is right next to the local Shaws. So that was nice. :D

Am all caught up on Linkara's Blue Beetle retrospective (which is promptly leading into his Star Trek 50th anniversary stuff via very funny segue) -- MAN, poor Jamie got the short end of the stick when it came to the New 52. *pats him* Linkara got good and enraged about a character-derailing moment. Not funny-enraged either -- genuine enraged. Can't blame him either, because MAN was it bad. Ugh. Linkara thinks the main problem is that the book's short run had four editors -- I wouldn't be surprised if various stupid mandates from on high destroyed what could have been a good idea. Meh.

Also watched the Critic discuss trailers, and remind us that good movies can have bad trailers and bad movies good ones. He used the recent Civil War and Ghostbusters reboot trailers as examples. I can't speak for the CW one -- not really interested -- but I'm hoping the rebooted Ghostbusters are better than what I saw in the trailer. I mean, I want to like it, I want to give it a chance. . .but that stupid gun-licking scene. Why. Whyyyyyyy. *shakehead* That said, I will probably go see it. Like I said, I want to give it a chance.

All right, time to do more tumblr stuff. . .and see if maybe anyone on there has an idea as to why my dash is all sorts of weird right now. Night!
