Snowflake challenge 2026 - 1

Challenge #1

The Icebreaker Challenge: Introduce yourself. Tell us why you're doing the challenge, and what you hope to gain from it.

Post your answer to today’s challenge in your own space and leave a comment in this post saying you did it.


So it’s that time of year again, time for [community profile] snowflake_challenge (and also it’s 2026 what the hell?).

I’m never terribly good with intros. I never know what to say and always feel sure I miss something but here goes.

I’m Stuie, I’m from the uk and I have two cats (Leia and Midna) and a dog (Naryu). I’m a student with the open university, doing science and hopefully I’ll finish it sometime (but health has delayed things). I’ve got depression and anxiety and probably autism too, but I’ve not been assessed yet (I have asked my doctor to refer me who knows what happened there). But anyway.

I’m a nerd as a seen below, I love Star Wars, Zelda and Pokémon and Doctor Who. Basically I love any sci fi stuff, but also I like horror stuff too.

I also write many smut fic occasionally other stuff, though I’ve stalled a lot over the past months due to various things.

I post about random general things, thoughts on films/shows and occasionally pic posts. I’ve got a cinema pass so I’ve started to use that to see films more often and post thoughts about them too. I also post about Doctor Who eps as I watch them (I’m currently going through the new season 15 boxset, but I had to stall cause of the holidays)

Current fixations are Stranger Things (we’ll see if that holds when I watch the finale), IT, The Long Walk, Joshua Odjick in general, 5 Seconds Of Summer.

Here’s a bunch of things that I like/am interested in (I’m sure I’ve missed things and may add them in later)

Films: Clown In A Cornfield, Noroi: The Curse, Sonic The Hedgehog, Star Wars, The Long Walk, Wildhood

Games: Dead By Daylight, Fall Guys, Fortnite, Pokémon, The Elder Scrolls Online, The Legend Of Zelda

Music: 5 Seconds Of Summer, Coheed And Cambria, James Marriott, Sleep Token, Waterparks

Shows: Doctor Who, IT: Welcome To Derry, Stranger Things

(I’m gonna come back and add things to the lists later as my mind feels hazy)

What I hope to gain from snowflake? I dunno really, new followers would be nice but I like how snowflake makes things so active in general.

DW does seem more active in snowflake time.

I like that.

Like I said to someone else who mentioned pets, I know I've probably seen pics before but you can't mention beauties and not show us a photo! :D :P
