FRTDNEATJ I'm not currently doing exchanges, but I am so charmed by this one that I'm still gonna post about it. nuh_s runs this Jews in Space Flash Exchange which is now in its second round.

Full details are on the collection's AO3 profile page. Nominations and sign-ups close on Tuesday, November 26 at 11:00 PM EST.



Speaking of Jews in space, here's a photo of a pin that I own, and if you don't already know what it references, try doing a search on the phrase Marjorie Taylor Greene AND Jewish Space Lasers:

Fic on AO3.

The Challenge: On September 1st, post something porny to your journal or favorite archive. This can be fic, art, icons, meta, your favorite porny recs, a dirty limerick, etc cetera. Then share that porniness by posting links at "Bring Back the Porn" on DW . Note that this fest only collects links: you must host your porny contribution elsewhere and put just the link on the fest page.

All fandoms and also original work are welcome. All varieties of porn from merely implied to very explicit, from vanilla to kinky, anything goes as long as there is some sort of smut factor.

See the BBTP comm profile page for more details.

Special note to dSC6D fen: I have arranged for due South and for Canadian Six Degrees to be in the fest's tagset, so get over to this fest and "due" it!

Thank you kindly to the following fen for sending postal mail to me in June and July: luzula for the postcard from her Norway vacation, elayna for the postcard from her Alaska vacation, aurumcalendula for the hand-drawn note-card, and oldtoadwoman for the letter that was the first time as a "pen-pal".

It was with amazement and delight that I learned my beloved Canadian band -- The Barenaked Ladies -- was going to be performing 5 miles (or 8 km if you're Canadian) from my home in the Midwestern U.S. I had never seen them perform live, always wanted to...and haven't even gone to ANY concerts since the pandemic. (The last two live concerts I did attend before the pandemic were also Canadian, which I'm sure surprises no one.) I got online at the ticket-ordering website about an hour before it opened, wanting to be right at the front of that virtual ticket line. I got a ticket for myself and a ticket for my fanpair...and the concert completely sold out within the first hour of ticket sales.

Here's a clip from that concert:

(And TYK to desireearmfeldt for having pimped me into BNL fandom all those years ago.)

I just signed up to be a recurring-monthly donor to the Kamala Harris Campaign Fund.

Last week I met IRL for the first time oldtoadwoman who I know from the Firewhiskey Fic comm. We met at a restaurant for dinner, followed by dessert at an ice cream parlor. I already knew her to be extremely artistic and literate, and with her having done fic and art in several shared fandoms, but it was only meeting her in person that I was able to experience how charming she is, a lively conversationalist with a depth and breadth of life experiences.

Local fannish meetups FTW!
