ignore the lower fear
My LJ has gone through a palindromic journey: it started off as a strictly RL tool (pre-Facebook!) and then became a mostly fandom-based platform and now, it appears, all I do is talk about RL again. SORRY GUYS. My L is very R, these days.
So in the spirit of nostalgia, a meme! Stolen from![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
liminalliz.
My username is: fahye - pronounced FAYE - commonly misspelled as 'fayhe'. I chose an LJ username on very short notice at the end of Year 10, when I had just watched Cowboy Bebop, and I basically threw an 'h' into Faye to make it more unique and so more suitable as an online handle. It's had good staying power; I'm known by it in fandom circles, I answer to it automatically in real life, and it's close enough to my real name that I can just sign all my emails 'F' without thinking about it.
My journal name is: La Fahyette, which is just different enough from fahye to not look totally stupid when set next to it, and is silly and punnish and...I like it.
My title is: broadcast me a joyful noise, which is from 'Bad Day' by R.E.M. I love the song and I love this lyric in particular, it's so strong and hopeful, and it's snuck into the middle of a chaotic chorus about counting your blessings even in the midst of a stressful life. WHICH IS RELEVANT TO MY INTERESTS.
My subtitle is: ancient and naïve astronomies which is from Don DeLillo's Ratner's Star: 'a nullifying plunge through history's other end to all those ancient and naïve astronomies of bone and stone'.
My default userpic is:
[potc] under the windings of the sea
by spiffed_icon - 'do you think death could possibly be a boat?'
From PotC: At World's End, which I loved disproportionately to its actual worth as a film due to my obsession with concepts of death involving oceans and boats (see also: turn your sail). The keywords and comment are from two of my other favourite things to explore this concept: Dylan Thomas's poem 'And Death Shall Have No Dominion' and Tom Stoppard's play Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead.
Plus, the icon is just gorgeous! Tilted horizon, pale sky, vivid sea, a silhouette and a sunrise.
