+ Butches in Books. Found a bunch I hadn't heard off, looks to be a solid list.

+ 2025 Recommended Reading List by Locus. Really appreciate the addition of a translated novels category.

+ How RPGs Became A Haven For Women In South Korea.

+ What Was Luke's Plan in 'Return of the Jedi'? The ever escalating amount of hostages XD

+ We need to talk about Fournier-Beaudry and Cizeron.
Fournier-Beaudry and Cizeron are both talented skaters from the Ice Academy of Montreal, who teamed up in 2024. They are both very striking, with beautiful skating quality that makes them captivating to new and old fans alike. But there's a darker side to the beginning of their partnership that has escaped the notice of a lot of casual fans.

+ Green's Dictionary of Slang is now available online for free. Allows lookups of word definitions and etymologies for free, and, for a subscription fee, it offers citations and more extensive search options.

+ Trans athletes may not have fitness advantage in women’s sport, landmark study finds.
Trans women in the studies were found to have significantly greater amounts of body fat than cis men, but levels comparable to those of cis women.

However, while trans women appeared to have more muscle mass, there were no observable differences in upper or lower body strength, the study found.

+ Saving this for later: Wonder Man by Abigail Nussbaum (so very likely to be good).

+ Very informative step by step recap of Bad Bunny's Half Time concert.

What are your favorite things to eat?

Finally, something I love to talk about: I'm going to make a list.

1. My absolute favorite is Shrimp. I love it in anything or by itself.

2. Homemade Alfredo Sauce. It's really good with shrimp in it, too.

3. Almost any type of fruit. I love Mango and peach the most.

4. Almost any type of vegetable. I like all cooked, but love some veggies raw.

5. My favorite meats. Almost all of them. I experiment with meat all the time. I
love to cook and to entertain.

6. I love desserts. I could live on desserts alone. I don't bake like I used to
because I eat it all. So does hubby.

7. I haven't mentioned the fact that I use cream cheese in almost everything
I cook and bake. My friends and family tell me I'm addicted to it. They
Might be right. 😁

8. Don't want to forget drinks. I crave Mango nectar. I drink sweet tea, water
And flavored water.

9. I almost forgot, to talk about salads. I prefer spinach salad but I eat all .
Different types.

Well, that's almost everything. I didn't leave out too much.

9. This year is the 40th anniversary of the release of the film Ferris Bueller’s Day Off – have you ever seen it? Bueller…. Bueller…. Bueller…..

My kids made me watch it over and over again. I'm probably the only person in the country that didn't like the film. It was right up there with Weekend at Bernies. Hated that too. I usually like comedies but these two didn't make me laugh much. I want more out of a comedy evidently. 😁

Has everyone seen it and enjoyed it?

40daysofdrabbles - so I created this community a few months ago in honor of the old request challenge thing I used to do (of various degrees of success). I am tempted to use the community in the style of

adventdrabbles, 'cause it seems wasteful not do more with it. So I'll probably post "prompts" daily there for the period of Lent.

Lent is starting February 18th, and again I'm not really religious (despite my family wishes), but I figured I could try this challenge again and see if I could exercise my writing abilities a bit more. I'm gonna try and get everything written & posted by Easter, or by end of April at the latest. *fingerscrossed*

You do not have to be a "friend" to request a pairing, but if you are unsure of a fandom/pairing I like - my list is located here (while not complete exactly, it's mostly is) or feel free to check out the tag list on

harpiewriting for ships I've already wrote for. I also technically have a list of Crossover pairings but that hasn't really been edited since 2012 so yeah... Also some of these fandoms are old and I have not recently watched them (or at times finished them).

Request as much as you want since there are so many slots open.... I'll try to pick the ones I know for sure I can/will write & add them to the table. Prompts aren't required. (Or preferably use a prompt from one of my tables I need to write for! :P ) Drabbles will at least be 100 words, maybe more depending on the plot bunnies.

I rarely write dark fics, smut, or super angsty stuff, so if you prefer that, I might not be able to do it? If you have any Do Not Wants, let me know otherwise it'll be whatever my brain can think up.

Name three healthy habits you have started within the last year that have changed your life for the better.

1. I now eat a peach yogurt in the morning, every day, instead of not eating anything. I love peach yogurt. And honestly, I'm sure I feel better because of this. Plus, I'm not so hungry by lunch time.

2. I'm doing Chair Aerobics every night for 30 minutes. I've lost a little weight, and I feel better. Because of my heart and Pulmonary Hypertension, I'm unable to do much that is strenuous. I'm thrilled I'm able to do this each night. Woot! I can't walk for long, because I'm on oxygen and it doesn't like me walking for too long. I'm limited, but I make the best of it.

3. Using less salt. I'm not cutting it out altogether, but I have taken less in for the last two months. I feel pretty darn good. The cardiologist likes my numbers right now, so he's very happy with me and my heart. LOL, I've still got a lot of weight to lose, but I'll get there.

I'm thrilled that I actually have three to list. Woot!!!!!!

8. How often do you read fiction?

I read fiction almost every day. I can't sleep at night until I've read some fan fiction if nothing else. I read all the time. Am I supposed to say what I'm reading? Because I just got done reading a new Due South fanfic, and it's wonderful. I'm going to post the link in case you want to read it too. It's written by Grey853 on AO3. It's a WIP, but each part is very long and very good. Plus, she always finishes her WIPs. Unlike some of us. LOL https://archiveofourown.org/works/78962371 It's 40,000 words and will be a 12 part series, on top of her Alphabet Series. This is the link for the entire series. Its my fave of all of her stories. Woot! https://archiveofourown.org/series/4320295

I'm getting ready to post the next challenge in

fandom10in30, but I need sample icons for the theme. The theme is "Hearts N Flowers." If you have icons you think fit the theme or can steer me toward some, please comment with image and unformatted link on this post.

Remember: The above-mentioned community does not consider stock alone fandom. Sorry, but that rule was created before I agreed to help moderate.

Anyone who helps will get thanked in the community post, and the icon makers will get proper credit (of course!).

Thank you in advance for any help.

Hello. I have decided to start a long term icon project. I want to create at least 1 icon for everything listed on my sidebar. The sidebar is always being updated as I think of things and new stuff comes out. So this will probably never be "finished" so to speak. They are broken up into sections like the sidebar is.

( so ambitious )

Write five guilty pleasures that you don't feel guilty about.

1. Chocolate. I'm happiest when I'm eating chocolate. And I don't feel one bit guilty about it, either.

2. Reading Slash Fiction on AO3. I could do that all day long. I love reading other people's work.

3. Staying up as long as I want to, no matter how little sleep I get. I love the peace and quiet of the
house late at night. And I talk to my brother, one of them, every week in the middle of the night. He
stays up late, too.

4. Reading a book instead of doing some housework. I love reading. I don't just read slash fic.

5. Going out to eat, even if I don't exercise that night. I'm not in great shape, so I do Chair Aerobics.
It's not only good for me, but it's fun. I love doing it, and my dog thinks I'm entertaining her. haha

pattrose

Early again.

7. Is there a subject at school that you disliked, but you would consider learning now?

I disliked math, except for fractions; I loved fractions. But everything else was too hard for me. And no, I wouldn't take it over again. Not for a million dollars. I loved English and History. And I took Latin because I already knew it when I got into high school. Do I remember any of it now, that I'm old? Nope. I did like school sometimes. :)

Describe your space. What do you love about it?

This could mean my house or my space on DW. I'll do both of them. Lucky you.

My house. We've been in this home for about 30 years. It's a four-bedroom, two-bath house with 2156 Square feet of living space. We have a nice kitchen. Not fancy just nice and cozy. My hubby watches different things in the living room that I don't watch so I have one bedroom made into a tv room. That way we don't force the other one to watch something they don't like. 🥰 We watch things together but it's nice to have my own little space. We have a spare room and an office too. We have luxury vinyl floors. They are so easy to keep up. Our house is on .75 acres of land. A very nice sized lot. Plenty of room for grandchildren and our kids. And of course our dog, Dakota. We love this house.

My space on Dreamwidth is a great setting. I belong to about 12 communities and I'm so happy here. Everyone makes me happy. I love it here too.

6. In 1869, Harper's Weekly published the first picture of Uncle Sam with chin whiskers. Do you know anyone with a beard or a moustache?

Practically everyone I know has beard or mustache. Or both. I on the fence about long beards. Not wild about them but respect their decisions. 😂

On uhhh almost Friday :D

Reading

I read Gakuen Heaven by You Higuri. I've really enjoying some other You Higuri stuff and I feel like this is kind of a yaoi manga classic, but I only found it ok. I'm sure I would have liked it more if I'd read it as a teen lol
I started reading Demon Fish: Travels Through the Hidden World of Sharks by Juliet Eilperin. I haven't gotten far yet, but I'm intrigued so far. I do love sharks!
I started listening to Jump the Shark: When Good Things Go Bad by Jon Hein. And DNF'd it at 40%. I thought this would be much more interesting than it was. Part of what made it meh was that I just have not seen much if any of most of the shows he was talking about, but also I just found his opinions questionable. Like sorry not sorry, anyone who talks about TOS Kirk being just a huge playboy is sus in my book.
Ficwise, I've been alternating between JunDylan and VegasPete. Currently I'm reading a long BDSM club VegasPete fic called Don’t You Care About the Casualties by AnaliseGrey, which is pretty good but they're both a little well adjusted for my tastes.

Watching

The roommate and I finished Dangerous Romance. I liked it a lot! PerthChimon were very cute, but I'm glad that mostly just made me excited to see Chimon with his new partner and not too sad about them no longer being together. Also so intrigued by how PepperPapang could have been...
The roommate and I started watching Boys in Love. Very cute and sweet! A little too much on the good communication front, which feels a bit weird to say, but I'm loving all the new pairs we're getting to see on this.
The roommate, best friend, and I watched the last episode of Goddess Bless You From Death. Great ending! I love that they wrapped up the spooky stuff and spent the back half of the episode letting PoohPavel be cute together lol
The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Cat for Cash. Still very cute. I'm enjoying the shenanigans.
The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Melody of Secrets. I didn't think it could get wilder and weirder, but it really did! That is both positive and negative because wow, this show sure is something.
The roommate, best friend, and I watched the last episode of Burnout Syndrome. Things really did go to shit, and I wasn't sure they'd resolve happily, but they did! Overall good, could have used more of Thor though.
The roommate, best friend, and I watched the latest episode of Dare You to Death. I think it's starting to hit its stride more, so I'm enjoying that. Also, some AouBoom, yay!
The roommate, best friend, and I watched the first episode of My Romance Scammer. What a great first episode, like wow! I love that they are speedrunning the get togethers to presumably bring lots of drama very soon lol Looking forward to more.
The roommate, best friend, and I watched the first episode of Duang with You. Also very good first episode! TeeteePor are so cute. I do feel like this episode covered most of what was in the trailer, so I'm intrigued to see what's going to happen.

Listening

Been doing a lot of listening to my Thai music playlist while I work. I think it really does help me work faster listening to music rather than watching youtube...

Writing

Nothing.

Learning

The roommate and I (who met in college Japanese class!) have decided that we want to brush up our Japanese (which makes it sound like I had much skill back then... I did not lmao), so we are studying back through our textbook. I went through the first chapter, and hey, I am remembering some things!
I did the third lesson of Pimsleur's Thai. I think I am mostly liking this style! But there are some words that are very hard for me to tell if I'm hearing/saying them correctly. Especially because I'm coming to realize that I kind of literally spell out words in my head when I hear them, so without ever seeing the words spelled, it's a bit frustrating.
