Please comment and introduce yourself before adding me. As long as we have something in common and you don't mind my ~quirks~, I will accept you. If you're here for just the gifs/icons, all of the entries are public. I don't have the time for trolls, so entertain yourselves elsewhere.

This sticky post is for the sole purpose of organizing the nitty gritty details of this meetup. (Notice how it's backdated to stay up until the con ends).

Friday, October 14

Place: Javits Center. We are planning to meet at the registration counter.

Time:

7:15-7:30 pm

Details:

We have reservations at Thai Select at 472 9th Avenue, New York, NY for 8:00 pm - reservation is under Aubre Rose.

We are then heading on the C train to Washington Av in Brooklyn to go to

The Way Station at 683 Washington Ave, Brooklyn, NY.

Notes:

We’re supposed to have scattered thunderstorms and high is 72… so bring a sweater and and an umbrella can’t hurt.

WE NEED TO WALK. IT’S NEW YORK. MAKE SURE YOU BRING COMFY SHOES. If you are cosplaying (like me) - you might want to pack some flats and or change before you meet us. (Loake shoes FTW) In total - it’s about a mile from the Javits center to the subway. We then have to walk about 3/4 miles from the subway stop to the bar. If you aren’t down with that, bring some cab fare if its going to be easier for you.

YOU DON’T HAVE TO BE GOING TO THE CON TO GO. Please don’t think you do - just meet us up there and it’s all about the fandom :). HOWEVER- while those under 21 are more than welcome to join us for diner - we are going to a bar and under aged drinking is lame. So please be considerate.

WE WELCOME ALL SHERLOCK HOLMES FANS. We’re going to be a base of BBC fandom, but please feel free to join if you like canon, 2009, Granada, anything! It’s all about FANDOM LOVE. <3

This fabulous and flawless movie has:
- A BROWN/BLOND HAIRED BENEDICT CUMBERBATCH LOOKING EXTRA SEXY AND DISTINGUISHED
- The tireless fight to end the transatlantic slave trade for you social justice folk
- Historically underrated HBIC's Olaudah Equiano and William Wilberforce as important characters.
- Regency era costume porn.
- Ioan Gruffudd and Romola Garolai being awesome.

- A slashy bromance

I'm sure at least one of those six things will interest you all. I highly recommend it.

(Just as a note, this entry is public but comments are subject to screening. I've had previous issues with online bullying/stalking/harassment unrelated to this situation, so I need to protect myself.)

Until about midnight last night, I was a follower of @jeffeastin on Twitter. On Twitter, I'm http://twitter.com/#!/lady_bluetooth. I was interested in seeing what Eastin was live tweeting. I noticed that his feed was not on my timeline. I logged in and and out, switched my clients, only to see that I've been blocked from following Eastin.

I wrote some critical tweets about White Collar during the season premiere and last night, but only in relation to one issue: Neal and Mozzie illegally and unethically profitting from the sale of the U-boat art. My intention with these tweets was to express concern. My criticism was written with the goal of seeking a promise of resolution for this issue. I did not want or expected to get leaks and spoilers. I did not intend to belittle or harass anyone with my critical tweets. I figured that the writers would rather hear complaints from concerned fans like me rather than people who want to pick fights or hate on the show without a good reason.

Before this, I have only uttered praise for White Collar online and offline. I've supported the show through various means online and offline. I'm still a fan of the show, even if I have spotted faults in it.

I hope that this block was a glitch or an accident. I hope that this was not an attempt to prevent tweets from those who were critical of the show from being seen. After rereading my timeline, I can see the possibility of my tweets being misinterpreted by someone who hasn't had much interaction with me online. Again, my tweets were made without any ill will. I am not a Twitter stalker, spammer, troll, critic without cause, perpetual complainer, or trouble maker. I am just a fan from Brooklyn who noticed that something was amiss on one of her favorite TV shows. I hope that the issue can be resolved in a peaceful manner.

Sincerely,
bluetooth16/lady_bluetooth
