THE DAY OF JUBILEE IS UPON US.  
Welcome, thou of the faithful 500 (ish. We're actually up to 522 now.) 

As of 2:39 EDT, the Promptathon will be closed and the fills must be submitted to the main post by that time.

THAT BEING SAID, if you still haven't finished stuff, don't worry. You can still write it and post, it, just not in the main post. I think [livejournal.com profile] ashen_key is still cool with updating AO3 after today, and I'll probably go ahead and update the LJ master posts as I can. (Sorry for not having updated in the past day or so; life has been crazy--I promise I will soon!)

So what happens now? Now my friends, we party. And I'm not gonna lie, this won't be easy. There will be squee, there will be silliness, there will be pics and gifs and feels and highly problematic men and gorgeous kickass women and impromptu dance parties and friend memes and conversations with new and interesting people. SHIT IS GOING TO GET REAL.

BUT WE CAN GET THROUGH THIS... TOGETHER.

I'm proud as hell of this bar, I am proud to have assisted with this Promptathon, and each and every one of you rock beyond belief.  All the love, my friends. Now let's get down to business. PARTY ON.

Oh Jeeeeezzzzzzzz. Paparazzi I really hate them. As much as I love reading about celebs, articles like these give me so much discomfort, because it's, like he says, personal life. So that's why I prefer fandom-fanon-characters.... real people need privacy.

Exactly - I run a fansite for another actor and we have a "no-paparazzi" picture rule. People get annoyed with us, but I don't want to help support the people who make life a living hell for someone I respect.

Woman, you have MY respect for this! (I've seen tons of personal photos from all sorts of celebs - not stuff they themselves put on tiwtter, but stuff that belongs to family albums, and it's just so uncomfortable for me).

Thank you :) We also say no to personal photos unless you have permission to post them. There's a crazy person in the fandom (it's Garrett Hedlund btw - the actor, not the crazy person lol) who has friended Garrett's REAL friends and family over the years and stolen pictures, videos, etc and every once in a while they'll show up online. So frustrating.

There was a fake "Official" facebook that took us forever to get taken down. Felt like throwing a party last week when it was finally deleted.

..... some people are just incredible, and not in a good way. God! I'm glad you made it, tho! It must have been monumental effort!!!

I completely agree. I am curious about their lives some, but that's why I watch legitimate interviews with them. I don't read any of the paparazzi heavy magazines. Even if I was THAT interested, I can't help but laugh at the articles. All of them say "a source close to [insert celebrity] said that..." For all we know that source is a grocery store clerk that saw the actor once. It's just ridiculous. I usually don't read those type of articles but kind of just stumbled upon it. I can't believe the details about the dog's death, that's really weird to me. It's sad, but dude the detail put into that part is disturbing.
