Dec. 25th, 2025 03:06 pmysabetwordsmith posting in goals_on_dwHow to Get Ahead on Your 2026 Content Planning -- Simple Wolf Media
If you’ve ever hit January and thought, “I should really post something…” but had no idea what, or where to start, you’re not alone.
Whether you run a small-town business, offer services, or manage a nonprofit, content planning can feel like one more thing on your list. But here’s the good news: December is the perfect time to do a little prep work so your Q1 marketing doesn’t feel like a scramble.
A few simple steps now can save you time, stress, and the weekly “what do I post?” spiral later.

Yuletide Madness Is Live
Dec. 26th, 2025 10:05 amyuletidemods posting in yuletide_adminAt push of button, this year's Madness collection has 227 works in 183+ fandoms.
AO3 wranglers have processed a lot of new fandoms; in the main collection, the 992 that appeared on the fandoms page at reveals have become 1065! Thanks to everyone who has helped make wranglers' jobs easier by using canonical tags, tags from the tag set, or other recommended tags, as appropriate in each case.
If you've written in a new fandom that isn't wrangled yet, we encourage you to use Unspecified Fandom as a tag to help people find your work; many works originally tagged this way now have wrangled fandoms, in which case, you can take the tag off if you wish.

Christmas Breakfast (Brunch, Lunch, Dinner...)
Dec. 25th, 2025 03:14 pmsettiai
My parents have a lot of issues, but they always send me a care package every year with various Southern foods in it that I can't easily get up here. One of them is country ham. It's delicious but very difficult to cook because it smokes so much, so I ended up giving away the ham they sent me last year because I couldn't make it without setting off the smoke alarm in the hotel.
I tried something new thing this year, though, and apparently cooking country ham in the air fryer works pretty damn well.
Check-In Post - Dec 25th 2025
Dec. 25th, 2025 07:03 pmbadly_knitted posting in get_knittedHello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.
Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?
There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.
HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL!
If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.
I now declare this Check-In OPEN!
