ArcticBunny68 is a very new and very talented due South fic writer and has created multiple dS 'verses in the form of the "Haines to Haines Junction" series, the "An Arctic Fairy Tale" series, and the "Borderline" series, and during November and December has tagged parts of them with "due South 2025 Christmas Chronicles". Here, for your holiday reading pleasure on AO3: due South 2025 Christmas Chronicles by ArcticBunny68. (Note that one of these fics is a short stand-alone while the others are portions within larger works.)

You may know Joyce Hindman as LionHeart Distribution or as Requiem Publications, publisher and seller of zines and as Bast Ravenshadow's publishing partner, or you may know her for her four tables at Media West, or as the artist with the little boxes and jewelry and other fun beaded stuff in the Media West art show, or as the fic writer Sekhmet.

She is now a senior citizen (over 70), and on social security after years on disability, along with her husband who is also a senior with health problems.

This has been a particularly tough year as far as health problems and medical expenses. Her husband was hospitalized with pneumonia. She needed rotator cuff repair on her dominant arm and additionally shortly thereafter broke the humerous bone near her shoulder on the same side.

She and her husband are now trying to cope with many medical bills for surgeries and physical therapy at a cost of thousands of dollars. With fixed incomes, and looking at increases in insurance premiums, food costs, et cetera, and with her husband's part-time job offering no work for two months now, they are very uncertain about how to pay these bills.

If you can donate anything to the Hindman GoFundMe, please do so at https://www.gofundme.com/f/help-joyce-overcome-medical-expenses . If you would rather donate privately as I did and you have PayPal, you can PayPal Joyce at jersey dot lion at gmail dot com.

My first post of combining hockey fandom and dog fandom was so well received that I've decided to do another one:

Ever since Marjorie Taylor Greene "informed" us that California wildfires were being caused by "Jewish Space Lasers" I have been obsessed with making a mockery of her. (Hey, I'm Jewish, and if I had control of some space lasers I would NOT be using them to set California on fire.)

Now I see that she is resigning from Congress after The Orange One called her "wacky"...which is the first time I've ever agreed with something he said.

At this juncture I would like to show what I have created with my Refrigerator Magnet "What Will Marjorie Taylor Green Say Next" Conspiracy Kit.

I've got a "milestone" birthday coming up and I bought myself a birthday gift of something I've wanted for a long time: the complete Red Green DVD collection -- yep, all 300 episodes! And amedia made a whole bunch of Red Green icons for me (one of which you see here).

A big TYK to amedia for the timely icons!

Thank you kindly to james and to dine for Halloween cards, and to noxelementalist for the art postcard.

obi_ki and her son Alan have been two of my Con*Strict friends. I've just today learned of Alan's death. Too sad for me to write more here but you can read about Alan's life and his family and his friends at Alan's obituary.

In Canada and all around the world, people STAND ON GUARD FOR CANADA!

Happy Thanksgiving Day and Happy Indigenous Peoples Day to Canadians and all fans of Canada!
