As seen all over my f-list :D

Rules: How many letters of the alphabet have you used for starting a fanwork title? One fanwork per line, ‘A’ and 'The’ do not count for 'a’ and ’t’. Post your score out of 26 at the end, along with your total works count.

A: And I still wonder if you notice me (Masters of the Air, Harry/Rosie)
B: Botanical Abomination (Roswell New Mexico, Max/Kyle/Liz)
C: Caught in the Rain (Masters of the Air, Buck/Bucky)
D: Drew the Line Right Through You (Roswell New Mexico, Kyle/Max)
E: Escaping Eros (The Expanse TV, Alex/Amos)
F: Fever When You Hold Me Tight (The Boys in the Boat, Don/Bobby)
G: Gods of Virility (Supernatural, Dean/Sam)
H: Hesitation Dribble (Watcher RPF, Shane/Ryan)
I: Intertwined by Circumstance (Roswell New Mexico, Max/Kyle/Liz)
J: Just for Tonight (Masters of the Air, Bucky/Rosie)
K: Keeping Tahoe Blue-ish (Watcher RPF, Shane/Ryan)
L: Like New Again (Dead Boy Detectives, Jenny & Monty)
M: Marking the Occasion (Band of Brothers, Johnny/Bull)
N: Not a Competition (Teen Wolf, Scott/Isaac/Stiles)
O: On the Edge of a Blade (MCU, Bucky/Natasha)
P: promise I'll be gentle (Hades game, Zagreus/Thanatos)
Q~
R: Real Life (MCU, Steve/Tony)
S: Snowfall Kind of Girl (Roswell, Maria/Michael)
T: Two Knives, Two Secrets (Dune movies, Feyd-Rautha/Paul)
U: Unable to Withstand Them (Roswell New Mexico, Pod Squad gen)
V: Viable Excuse (Roswell New Mexico, Max/Kyle)
W: Warning Signs (Teen Wolf, implied Stiles/Allison)
X~
Y: you kiss me like you want it, how rude (Generation Kill, Brad/Nate)
Z~

23/26. I have 362 works on AO3. I actually had a lot of W and P titles, which I did not expect. I think 'x' is difficult unless I name a fic X marks the spot?? I could probably come up with titles for the other two letters.

A primer on metacognitions / ways of thinking that prop up white supremacy culture

Existential Processing Delay

Black Neurodiversity, - "Explore the intersection of neurodiversity and disability justice. Understand how factors like race, age, and gender influence neurodivergent experiences. Join our interactive 2-hour workshop and receive materials for immersive learning."

Neurocomplex Lifespan Model: "Gifted Kid to Autistic and/or ADHDer Adult (in Burnout)
A complex visual model of the path from “Gifted Kid” to late(r) in life identified Autistic and/or ADHDer. Considering school, work, relationships, gender, sexuality, mental & physical health."

Moral Scrupulosity OCD - "I followed every rule. I apologized when no one asked me to. I replayed conversations endlessly, scanning them for harm I might have caused. If I could just make sure I never hurt anyone, then everything would be okay."



Next up, a visual comic link
“Mapping Your Emotional Floor Plan:
A comic by Erika Moen based on Come Together
Even an amazing cartoonist known for communicating sex ed and talking about her own life found mapping her Emotional Floor Plan challenging – maybe this will help you do yours!”


Stoat.chat - a possible chat program to move to if Discord starts sharing data with police/ICE now that their TOS doesn't explicitly forbid it.

Oncology Massage - link for me to read soon.

GLP drugs might have neuroprotective effects? GDI now I have to do a bunch of research, with finals coming up. - Glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) receptor agonists and neuroinflammation: implications for neurodegenerative disease treatment

Endocrine-Disrupting Effects of Salicylate Preservatives on Neurosteroidogenesis: Targeting 5α-Reductase Type 1 I have dry skin AND work with my hands in lotion all day, so this link is more relevant to me than to most. But salicylate preservatives are in a lot of stuff we put on and in our bodies, and they can apparently be endocrine disruptors.

Lakota Made Products - Tezi Tea - for Mom, possibly? As she gets older, her digestion is not always as regular as it could be.

flamingsword: DO ALL THE THINGS (ALL THE THINGS)
[personal profile] flamingsword
The condition-specific massage essay test went okayish? I probably passed even though I forgot to ask the fake client “Will E. Wonka” about his medication. The rest of the week since the test on Thursday has mostly been trying to recover from the studying and five pages worth of essay I had to write.

But since then I’ve had decent Indian food, gotten to talk to some of my emotional support humans, and crafted a knitted, beaded necklace (called the Gatsby necklace) in silk yarn for a friend. Self care levels are at nine/10. And some friends are shipping me out for a vacation in the frosty PNW after graduation, and then I will be laying on a floor in a stupor while my brain heals. Like one does.

Next week I will be studying for the pathology exam and the all-courses comprehensive exam and making ALL THE FLASH CARDS! Which I still find annoying as shit, but it is whatever. Soon. Soon this will be done.

[edit to add: I got a 96. They didn’t even notice the thing about missing the medication.]

Oi! Tudo bem?

Nascida em 2002, sou assexual, multirromântica, preta, carioca da gema e bastante revoltada com os governos estadual, nacional e mundiais.

Gosto de gatos, cozinhar, gargalhar alto. Gosto, também, de Grand Chase, Seventeen, alta fantasia e não-ficção.

Como todos os outros, sou uma miríade.

Finquei meus pés na blogosfera em 2018, lançando o blog Anotações Esparsas, cujo qual eu viria a coautorar com o Carlos, um colega meu, até eu me retirar da equipe. Como poderá ler no texto: “Com anos de atraso, hoje eu me apresento a vocês”, deixei o AE porque cresci para além dele, embora minha proposta com o EON seja quase idêntica.

Minha proposta de falar de fanfics, fandom e cultura de fãs continuará, porém com a adição positiva de mais de mim. Mais do que escrevo, mais do que penso, e, principalmente, mais do que sou. Por aqui, você, fanfimor, lerá sobre minhas fics, e das releituras que eu fizer, e artigos tratando das opiniões que eu me reprimi compartilhar publicamente por tantos anos.

Como estou adulta — para o meu pavor —, espere por publicação lenta. Minhas prioridades serão minha carreira e minha vida pessoal, então escrever para blog será terciário, por vezes quaternário. Quando o influxo alcançar o estopim, darei as caras por aqui para extravasar um pouco. Não sei escrever demais, e não sei ficar sem escrever. Estranho como são as coisas, não?

No âmbito de escrever e postar fanfics, não tem diferença; escreverei devagar, postarei quase nunca. Dito isso, a feitiçaria que a KOG Studios fez não me deixa sair do fandom, e, por isso, as chances de eu postar uma oneshot ou shortfic são baixas, mas nunca zero. Se eu não estiver fazendo isso, então estou quebrando a cabeça com minha longfic Lass/Elesis — ‘O conto inscrito na lâmina’. Quando der na telha, comento dela por aqui.
