Predictably...

today, when I looked at The MAD Doctrine again, the last bit of the ending felt superfluous. AS THE LAST BITS OF MY ENDINGS ALWAYS DO. Jeez, really, I should just automatically cut the last couple of paragraphs or so of ever fic right after writing them, because experience demonstrates that in 99% of the cases, they're not really doing the story any good. It's kind of hilarious how it *still* takes me days or weeks to realise this on my own, every frelling time.

Obligatory Radiohead-related content of the day

One thing I enjoy doing occasionally: seeking out Thom Yorke covers of songs by bands like Joy Division and The Smiths, whose singers have low voices compared to the falsetto Yorke has become associated with in the public imagination, and reading the surprised comments about how low his voice can go.

Sadly, there aren't that many covers of that sort, so as hobbies go, this is a rather limited one. Though maybe that's a good thing. There are probably more useful things I could do with my time.

(A variation on this is looking at the comments for youtube vids that show him laughing and being silly - there's invariably at least a few comments along the lines of "Thom Yorke can laugh?!??!")
