I’m thinking of doing a catch up post on some of the other snowflakes, but I’ll just do todays.

Challenge #9

In your own space, celebrate a personal win from the past year: it can be a list of fanworks you're especially proud of, time you spent in the community, a quality or skill you cultivated in yourself, something you generally feel went well.

I dunno about other people, but last year has been one of those that felt like it was more than one year. As such it’s hard to look back on and find things. (And, with how bad most of the latter part was, I don’t particular want to). And it’s not helped that I wanted to do so many things last year and then, for one reason or another, I never did.

Does surviving count?

(Autocorrect tried to put that as surfing, which…. I’ve certainly not done in the last year)

The only real thing that came to mind is that I passed the uni course I did last year. The thing is though I’m not really… proud of it? It turned out to be not as interesting as I hoped and when I went to choose this course I realised that I could/should have done a more interesting one instead (because I couldn’t do them now, stupid points system)

There probably is a fic I thought went well, but I can’t think of it now.

It kinda feels like anything else I’ve gone to type is a downer, so I guess I’m gonna leave it there (maybe I’ll redo this when my mindset is better)

Which yeah my mindset went really…. Off last night which was annoying, not helped by it suddenly going cold again. (And the government being, not for the first time these last days, being assholes again)

I watched a few things but my focus wasn’t there. A shower kinda helped but mostly against the cold side. I did end up in bed listening to a who audio on bbc sounds which, ironically, had an idea from the Dalek invasion of earth which seemed both odd and fitting considering I just watched it.

Today has been sorta better? I’ve done some uni stuff (I’m still mostly *insert I don’t know what I’m doing clefairy gif here*) so I might the assessment done by tomorrow. Well, not done done, but enough to submit it and be done with it.

There was a new Mandalorian trailer this morning, which looks great and reveals a date of March for the new series. It looks cool with Coruscant (or Hosnian Prime?), and the Mandalorian starfighter and R5 and battle droids just hanging out. But also… ugh seeing Mandalore like that is so sad and what’s with the order 66 seeming flashback?

Now I’m gonna bundle and winterwatch is later, and maybe finish Who ray stuff tonight (and James’ tour announcement, hope for one here)

Challenge #2

In your own space, write a promo, manifesto or primer for your fave character, ship or fandom. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

I did do something like this with some of my streamers, first here and then a more general one here

However I’ve used this post as an excuse to finish something else off, a rec post for Doctor Who episodes that I started working on awhile back and figured it fit this. So under the post is a bunch of Who related thoughts.

(Also apparently there’s more Who animations coming for the anniversary, how exciting!)
