June something day 4
Jun. 4th, 2021 04:44 pmDay 4: What are the origins of your penname/username?
This goes back in the LJ days and it was my first real username. It asked me for a username and I wasn’t sure what to put, but for some reason shadow hive came to mind and it just… stuck. Im not sure on the shadow part, but the hive part is from Resident Evil.
In the first live action Resident Evil film there is an underground research facility, called the Hive. It’s under Racoon City and it’s here that research into the t-virus is going on (why research it there, when Umbrella Corporation is shown to have more remote facilities is… baffling). The virus escapes, everyone dies and… then the film happens.
I still think the first two are the best of the films and that the last one, as I recall, is a bit of a mess trying to put in links that weren’t there.
But I digress!
I kinda wish I’d switched to something else after all the issues but never could, not really, the closest is spookyhive on twitter which came about during a Halloween season.

Last night was pretty uneventful, though my eyes were achy again and I went to sleep pretty early.
This morning I watched a Talk It Off Podcast, the latest one (i still need to watch the others) which was pretty fun, though it was funny that the video corrupted at some point and it got choppy. At the side of the youtube video there was a link to merch bar and because it was in £’s I assumed it was uk based, so I went to get a Set It Off tee on sale… and the shopping was more than the tee. Ugh.
There’s also this waterparks tee which I really want but ugh, the shipping. I’m trying to find it on a uk site but can’t seem to and it’s annoying, but then it does seem to be an older one.
When we walked the pup it seems the geese babies are all gone now which is so sad, but also what the hell happened to them? I get the sinking feeling it’s because of people and I hate them.
After the Lego reveal yesterday two sets are up for preorder on the Lego site, and I really want the Mandalorian fighter. I might get it for my birthday,
I just real a Thirteen Storeys chapter, which had a nice link to the last one and it reminded me of a horror film, (I think it’s called Drag Me To Hell?) because it seemed similar in some ways. I didn’t like the main character all that much, much like the character in that film
I might try and fic later if I get an idea and then game before there’s the Waterparks gig tonight.
Speaking of I watched a thing on YouTube the other night and it seems so fitting for the fic Im working on because it shows them at the side of the stage watching Set It Off and there was a bit with them together. It just seems perfect.
Midnight The Final Chapter is up on Spotify now too, so I might give that a listen tonight since there’s a listening party planned. I’m not sure if there’s a disc release of it though which is a shame.
E3 starts next week and I’m excite, especially for the Xbox and nintendo stuff.
