The cover and title--“Teenage Biker Mega-Death!”--both have a cheeky charm, but don’t be fooled. I’d call this the darkest story of Giffen and DeMatteis’ run, more so than the funeral episode, Blue Beetle’s mind imploding, or even the Despero stuff. Warning for death, violence, body horror, and a sense of crushing hopelessness I normally associate with election night 2016.

Even the first time I read this, I was like…‘‘JESUS.’’ )

Seasons Greasons!

I hope everyone has a wonderful holiday season this year ❄️

1. Artist recs! I want to buy a new print for my house. I like minimalist art, pastel colors, and art with realistic animals like birds or whales.

2. I'd love recommendations for Japanese tea pot(s) if you have one you really like.

3. I've been wanting to make my wardrobe more masculine and/or androgynous. But I still like clothes that fit, and most men's smalls are way too big for me. I'm 5'2". Any hand-me-downs or store recommendations would be appreciated! Send me a pic and then I'll pay shipping for used clothes if you're in the U.S.

4. Do you have any CDs that still work, that you no longer want? I'm on the hunt for AC/DC, 5 Seconds of Summer (besides Youngblood and EVERYONE'S A STAR), Nickelback, Jonas Brothers, early 2000s country, etc. I'll pay for shipping if you're in the U.S.

5. I've got this tag punch that I was gifted brand new, but I don't need it. If you want it, I'll ship in the U.S. First come, first served. Picture under here )

6. I have a lot of scrapbooking paper and odds and ends if you'd like to do a little paper decorations exchange! I'd love to receive some stickers, washi tape, or decorating paper.

7. I'd love more comments or concrit on my original m/m fic about two characters set in 1700s Asia: To Answer His Crown Prince's Request. I've been thinking about writing a part II.

8. A rename token! I've finally decided to rename my journal. I'd also love any tips you have on renaming on DW. Do the links in your own posts all get broken, or is there a way to persevere links?

Merry Everything!

I hope everyone is doing well. I am going through a mental health breakdown. The last few years battling cancer took its toll. But, I am almost 2 years into remission and I have some wonderful caregivers helping me through this rough patch. So grateful for this community because it gives me a chance to look at everyone's lists to see if there are any wishes that I can grant (which is pretty uplifting right now.) Here's mine: 

Gifts for everyone:

Battling Cancer has taught me two things that I really want to pass on.

1. Your time is more valuable than money
. Not everyone will be worth your time. For those that are, please tell them how much you care about them and how much they mean to you. Tell them often. Go on that outing, take that picture, call that friend. Anything can and does happen. You never want to regret time lost and you never want them to suffer with your loss.

2. Work on your baggage. Unpack that stuff. A lot of it was hand-me-downs anyway. You down need to carry all that stuff that just weighs you down and makes life harder. Find a therapist, a shadow work book, a faith leader - someone to help you dissect your mental junk drawer and put things in a perspective that heals you. Don’t wait…deal with your baggage so that you can live better now instead of later. 

My wishes:

3. Movie, series, or documentary recommendations - I'm way behind the curve, so if you have seen something good that you recommend, let me know. I have full access to a library and I am not afraid to use it. Any genre - I also have access to Netflix, Disney, Hulu, HBO/Max, and many free services like YouTube.

4. Enamel pins - I collect and wear enamel pins - they can be any kind/theme.

5. Whimsical care package - My aesthetic is a combination of goblin/gremlincore, dark fairy/cottagecore, and witchcore. I don’t have any major food allergies or sensitivities. I love nature and nature colors. I believe in fairies, elementals, and forest spirits. But overall, I am a big child so I’m pretty easy to please. I am autistic, so no clothing, lotions, cosmetics, or overpowering smells.

6. Tarot/oracle decks - I collect and read these for myself. I will absolutely take a used, well kept deck.

7. Resources - I am deconstructing from internalized racism, patriarchy, ableism, etc. - I welcome books, sites, Ted talks, or any other resources you may have that would help me on my journey. I am here to listen, learn, and appreciate.

8. Recommendations for books by or about marginalized voices: POC, Native, LGBTQIA, Disabled, etc. Genre doesn't matter, I read everything. This is a princely gift!

9. Music recommendations - Hit me with your latest earworm, favorite band or artist, or song that hits you in the feels. Bonus for a themed playlist (I am on Spotify).

10. Cat food - My boy’s favorite flavors are Fancy Feast Pate tender chicken and liver,; Fancy Feast cod, sol, and shrimp feast; and the delectables chicken and vegetable push up. My boys are Bodhi (16), Wilbur (14), Henry (10), and Jasper (6) and they are all such great cats.

NOTE: I am absolutely ok with hand-me-downs, thrifted, and used items.

Community Recs Post!

Every Thursday, we have a community post, just like this one, where you can drop a rec or five in the comments.

This works great if you only have one rec and don't want to make a whole post for it, or if you don't have a DW account, or if you're shy. ;)

(But don't forget: you can deffo make posts of your own seven days a week. ;D!)

So what cool fanart/podfics/fancrafts/fanvids/other kinds of fanworks have we discovered this week? Drop it in the comments below. Anon comment is enabled.

BTW, AI fanworks are not eligible for reccing at recthething. If you aware that a fanwork is AI-generated, please do not rec it here
chanter1944: a house and road blanketed in snow (Wisconsin winter: buried in snay)
[personal profile] chanter1944 posting in [community profile] holiday_wishes
I made it! Yay! Chanter here, ducking in the door in a shower of newly-fallen snow. Whee!

For a little info about yours truly, I'm a queer, neurodiverse nerdlady living in the U.S. northern Midwest, and this is my... fifth? something like that time participating in this comm. Anyway, here's a handful of wishes. None of them need to cost anything monetarily, though a little time might be involved, especially in 4.

1: If anyone is inclined to have a sniff at my AO3, it's [archiveofourown.org profile] Chanter and kudos and comments are love. :)

2: I seem to link to these every year, but I'm in the habit of playing Freekibble trivia daily. NO sign-up whatsoever necessary, just playing trivia and clicking a button or two for good causes.

3, which dovetails neatly with 2: A DW pal linked me to Arab.org and its handful of click-to-give contribution options, and now I'm in that habit too. Again, no sign-up necessary, just clicking buttons for worthy causes.

4: At one point, someone made me an icon of Back To The Future's Emmett and Clara (I ship them ever so much, ahem) but before I could snag it, the connected comment went... kerboom, never to return. No idea what happened there, but yes, I'd love an Emmett/Clara icon, if anyone's willing. And just so it's out there, I'd really prefer if it weren't furious!Clara and dismayed!Emmett from one particular scene; if you know, you know.

5: Utter frivolousness at this end. If anyone knows of a Stateside source of orange marmalade made to EU standards i.e. properly bitter citrus and not full of a ton of sugar like most of what we get over here, please do clue me in? I wasn't able to bring any home from Ireland when I was over there visiting in 2024, more's the pity. I know this might be iffy to get hold of, considering Stateside tariffs etc, but I figure it's worth a try.

6: This might sound silly, and I absolutely do not mean it to be creepy, but those with pets who appreciate petting, scritches, snuggles etc, please pass some love along? I have no friendly furry creature at the moment (I need to find a local shelter and start volunteering to pet cats again, and I miss my lovebug of a Labrador dearly) so critter happiness by proxy is the best I've got.

7: This is niche, but I would love to find other fans of oldtime radio shows! I know I'm far from the only one out there. If so inclined, come squee at me about your favorite Shadow, or your preferred Johnny Dollar, or how Candy Matson absolutely did not give up her career after - *coughs!* ahem! series's end spoilers! or how fantastic the adventures of Betty Lewis, freelance insurance investigator would be, or just what happened to Janice Corey after a specific Suspense two-parter ended, or... Anyway, fellow folks fond of the golden age of radio, please feel free to drop me a line.

(From two issues back.)

When we last left the Blue Beetle, his prognosis was grim: the Queen Bee has programmed his mind to attack not only Max Lord but also itself. He's comatose and circling the drain. Without the Bee, he’s just a “-tle”! Only two things can save him: an old man he’s sort of met before and his own horniness.

But not for the old man. )
matsushima: all will turn to silver glass (alternate universe)
[personal profile] matsushima posting in [community profile] holiday_wishes
Hi, I'm Meep (e/em)! I've been around since ye olde [livejournal.com profile] holiday_wishes days.

I live in Tokyo and in Japan, they say your 37th year is bad luck for women* and wow, they're not wrong! It's been a doozy and I've got 21 days to go. *There are only two options for this tradition…

Things That Are Free
    Icons of my dolls My doll photos are all on Flickr and I would love icons of any/all of them, either drawn or resized/edited in a pretty way.
    Icons of me I have a gallery of icons I've commissioned over the years for reference.
    Help designing a fursona I'm not a furry but it looks like fun? A few years ago, I sketched out an idea and I'd love for help polishing up his design. (It's not colored but he's a mouse with fawn coloring and deer antlers. His sweatshirt is forest green. Other than that, have fun with the details!)

Things That Cost Money
    Paid Flickr account I'm approaching my 1,000 photo limit for a free account and I hate seeing ads on my stuff.
    Dreamwidth points Dreamwidth is my home online and I like to support them with a paid account! (I like the extra icons, too.)
    Anything off my Etsy wish list It's a funny jumble of things I like, mostly doll stuff because that's been my hyperfixation for the past few years, and some Judaica for my home.

Big Dream
I couldn't afford these dolls when they were available to buy and now they're almost impossible to find. I'm not asking for one for free (but I also wouldn't say "no"!) but if you have one for sale, please send me a message!

I'm not picky about color (beauty white, fresh/normal) or condition (damage, yellowing, mods, etc) but it should go without saying but I'm not interested in recasts.

I checked both North America and Asia for my region tags because I live in Japan but I have a mailing address in the U.S.

"It keeps revisiting this idea of who this clown was and what did he do, getting darker and darker. It asks, ‘What is a clown?’ ‘What does he love about clowns?’ It starts with, Oh he loves clowns because they’re funny and they make us laugh and then it goes to, ‘Maybe he loves clowns because they mock us.’ They’re a pantomime of our own buffoonery. In mythology, a clown is the only one who survives everything and laughs at us as we die." -- Scott Snyder

Fallon's wishes

Happy holidays all. It is Fallon once more, although at this point some may know me by other names (Which I won't list here for simplicity's sake). I suppose it's what you get for attending more than a few filk/scifi conventions. LOL

I am job hunting again after losing my job of the last 14 months. That was back in June, and I am still hunting; it's brutal out there y'all.

As for everything else: Mom is moving from Missouri to Indiana to be closer to her sister and myself. Which is turning out better than I had feared, thankfully. Cats and I are still healthy and spry as ever; Minion still plays escape artist even though he's damn near 11 LOL :) I still have my condo, and the neighbors are still fantastic. :)

Without further rambles, however, here are my own slightly recycled set of wishes:

1) cat anything! (Cat toys, cat ornaments, things of that sort, heck even kitty sent Christmas cards). My fur kids are my family, for realz.
2) Gift cards. Amazon, iTunes,, Doordash.
3. clothes for my reborn. She's adorable, and wears 1-3 month clothes.
4. Resources on learning HTML and Markdown. I'm aware of w3schools, and I have visual studio, but anything else is fair game.
5. Yule/winter Solstice holiday cards. I love things like that; and Yule and Samhain are both my favorite holidays. :) bonus points for music recs inside the cards as well.
6)https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/2HMTRVK5V2K19?&sort=default
7) Pipe dream change: the Native Instruments A series 61 key controller keyboard. I'm starting to get more into music/reaper usage, and it would be a helluva lot easier to be able to control it from a piano style keyboard than a computer one.
8) Candles. (Woodwick, white Barn, Yankee, to name a few) Scented is better. (Yes, I adore candles. :p)
9) Hot beverages. I adore them in the winter months, especially.
10) gaming anything. Especially ones that are half-way playable as I have a visual impairment. I'm still getting into it, even though it's been about a year or so now. resources, websites, advice on best products/practices. Any of that. :)

Please PM for address for those sending things; provided upon request. That is also for gift cards if anyone wants to email them.

Thank you lot. I've lost track of the times I've participated in this community, and it has been a lovely experience each time. <3 I hope everyone has a blessed holiday surrounded by the ones and things they love most.

-F~
