a more wretched hive of scum and villainy you will not find

by fledgling otaku on May 12, 2006

I notice via Steven that we otaku aren’t respectable enough for the Mainstream Blogmedia – Taranto and the Powerline folks don’t even deign to link back to him anymore.

I can just imagine what political bloggers think when they look over at Mos Eisley here and see us talking about Star Trek cribs. I think Steven’s obviously Chewie – I’m the hammerhead in the corner, Shamus is probably the furry thing.

Well, political blogging sucks. I still do it but I’m starting to think of it like a bad habit – like smoking, I try not to draw attention to my polblog addiction. We all get the urge – even SDB is seen furtively lighting up a post at RedState now and then :) Maybe by 2006 I’ll be fully weaned. In the meantime, I’m having fun blogging again – and we otaku can laugh from time to time at the robotic drivel that the polblogs generate.

I hope no polblogger droid shows up here. We don’t serve their kind here…

Heh. So what about us poli-otaku bloggers? (of which I’m probably the only one). I post about half local politics and half anime. Lack of focus really drives the readers crazy. Eventually I’m going to have to split them, as much of a pain as that will be.
