Not The Droids

Post your non-rp communities you would like to draw some attention to!

From:

Nothing to suggest at the moment, but putting up a request for any writing/fanfic challenge communities that are really active these days. Those are definitely a thing I miss participating in.

Fandoms| Oh man. Right now it is Yuri!!! on Ice and Westworld (very similar), and also X-files, Steven Universe, Sailor Moon, Hannibal, Clamp )especially Tokyo Babylon, X, and Tsubasa/Holic), Stephen King, Naruto (not necessarily happily), Ru Paul's Drag Race, IDK lots of stuff.
Interest| I'm an art nerd, super into the paranormal, I have really stupid humor. I rp in PSLs now because I am sloooooow. I have a lot of weird ass trivia and a large amount of knowledge about nuclear radiation. I'm an eternal high level tattoo apprentice.
Speed Bio| Hi I am Te I am a nerd. I work with kids, both through Denver Comic Con using comics and board games to improve literacy in kids, and in family preservation with the foster system. I also run The Atomic Pixies with my wife and roommate and we go to cons and sell our art nouveau prints. And I have a lot of cats.

YOUR JOURNAL
What do you post| TBH I don't know. I haven't kept up a journal for like 5 years. Use to be fandom and personal life stuff on a pretty regular basis.
Posting habits| I posted between once a day and once a week, and commented plenty. I'd like to post at least once a week, if not more.
Warnings| I can be political? And I cuss a lot. And I make a lot of typos. Which I'm guessing is obvious by this point.
Looking for| People who post semi-regularly who post a nice mix of stuff I like finding out about new things and people!
Deal breakers| General don't be a douche I guess?

Tell us any interesting thing about you! I'm terrified of submarines. Like will run away from them in fear. Living in Denver this doesn't come up a lot. Thankfully. But it has happened more times that seems reasonable given this weirdly specific fear.
Anything else? I really love armadillos.

Also all the icons on this journal are from like 2009.

Speed Bio| Slytherin. Sagittarius, Historian, Folklorist, Smol, Bouncy, Autistic, Fibrotastic.

YOUR JOURNAL

Posting habits| I generally read everything on my reading Flist, may not always comment or comment in length, but I generally always read everything. I post frequently, but there might be a super busy week when I don't.
Warnings| Crazyness. Also I do talk about religion, mental illness, politics, and representation being super important.
Looking for| new friends and new perspectives.
Deal breakers| I have a limited tolerance for extreme melodrama

Tell us any interesting thing about you! I've lived in a bunch of different places, not all of them in the US.

Fandoms| Kamen Rider (OOO mostly but expanding), Doctor Who, Yuri on Ice, lots of visual novels and sci-fi and horror type things in general, also keeping up with some crunchyroll simulcasts that I'm not hugely into fandom for but would appreciate having people watching with me, and I'm in that Animorphs book club that was trying to get started on plurk and plan on reading the rest of them over this year whether the club actually happens or not
Interest| ...everything? Except sports. Unless it's sports anime, then maybe. For a recent example, let's go with archetypes as a self-reflection/career branding/character analysis tool. Also making floggers out of paracord.
Speed Bio| I am a humanoid of fluctuating gender who has a truly eclectic list of interests and a passion for trying to make the world we live in not suck.

YOUR JOURNAL
What do you post| I haven't used a journaling site in ages, so I honestly don't have a clue, but it will probably be fandom and craft projects and babbling about sex ed type things (I have a podcast, on that note. Check it out here), possibly activism, and maybe some weird mystical type stuff like reiki and tarot.
Posting habits| I'm going to guess this will be something like equal parts long babbling philosophical posts, fandom silliness, and "Hey, guys, look, I did a thing!" but I honestly have no idea. Pace is really a mystery right now, too, though I wouldn't be surprised if it's twice in a day sometimes and once in a week other times.
Warnings| Sexuality discussion will happen. Maybe not in personal detail, but in general. Also general warning for depression and PTSD over a past abusive relationship.
Looking for| Anyone who thinks my randomness is interesting and wants to talk about things.
Deal breakers| People who never engage in conversation (which given the premise of this meme shouldn't really be an issue) or who want arguments all the time. I don't mind if people disagree with me, and actually like hearing from different viewpoints, but not so much antagonism.

Tell us any interesting thing about you! One of my old posts from when I used to LJ was about how money literally burned a hole in my pocket. I only remembered that because I went back and looked through my old journal recently, but it seemed like a good anecdote. Also, I own a lizard. (If I had infinite money and space I would probably own every animal ever.)
Anything else?

From:

About the only fandom overlaps I see there are Dragon Age and musicals, but I'm down for dogs, social work, and mental health talk.

From:

Yep! I haven't managed to keep up with it well, but I have posted to things there--I should get back to it. That's the only one I'm aware of that's really active.

YOUR JOURNAL
What do you post| i actually just cleaned my journal out because it's been years since i last used it, and it was riddled with a lot of... negative... posts... hoping to use it to just talk about life mostly and use it as a way to help document my progress re: cosplay. :'D
Posting habits| COSPLAY POSTS meaning posts riddled with in progress shots and whatnot. time wise... i'll definitely be sporadic.

Looking for| new friends to gush about series/ships with. also fellow cosplayers! i love seeing cosplayers' progress and test shots.
Deal breakers| nothing... comes to mind...? i guess don't be a dick? if there's a series or ship you're not into, be courteous and don't trash it? we can even discuss ships prior to adding if that will help. i just really... do not want anything to go in That Direction.
