I have nowhere

nowhere to go

when I get
back from there.

OTPs and Ships: I'm not very particular about top/bottom dynamics; I have preferences, but I'm fine with whichever arrangement. I'm also a huge multi-shipper and if I list everything out, this will get really long, so I'll just list my top ships lol

Caspar von Bergliez / Linhardt von Hevring
- I'm also into Caspar von Bergliez / Ashe Ubert / Linhardt von Hevring <3

Music: BTS, NMIXX, Fall Out Boy, Vaundy, Yorushika, Two Door Cinema Club, etc.

As usual, these are all free to a good home in the US. Alas, international shipping is beyond my budget, never mind the ridiculousness of the current everything. If you'd like something, it's yours. Please just say thank you and let me know it arrived.

* One lot of BPAL perfume, including a couple of little bottles and quite a few of the tiny vials. I'll have to inquire how best to ship these but I'm guessing in bubblewrap and tupperware.

( Books, Videos, etc. )

There are two new prompts therealljidol.dreamwidth.org/1212053.html

and the twist that spawned them. therealljidol.dreamwidth.org/1211769.html

Please make sure to send your accusation and selection for who is to receive the antidote. We are down to 8 and that - and any further twist ends at 5. So, in theory, we are quickly approaching end game. I say "in theory" because there are so many other twists still on the Wheel. But only the Wheel knows if it's actually almost done with you or going to completely reset the entire mini-season and start all over again. (Yes, that IS on the Wheel. :D)

***

For anyone wondering what " kako no ashioto" is: ""Kako no ashioto" (過去の足音) in Japanese translates to "footsteps of the past" or "footsteps in the past".

The phrase is composed of three Japanese words:

Kako (過去) - Meaning "the past" or "bygone days".
No (の) - A possessive particle (similar to 'of' in English) that connects the two nouns.
Ashioto (足音) - Meaning "footsteps" (the sound of steps).

The phrase is often used metaphorically to refer to memories, events, or influences from the past."

***
I've had a few people ask how I've been. The truth? Not well. I mean great when I'm actively doing something, like that trip to Pittsburgh. (AMAZING) but when I'm not? Not well. It will work itself out, and the holidays are always difficult for people. So anyone else out there struggling - have some extra kicks, you damn hippies! ;) <3

Name: Diana

Age: 40

I mostly post about: trying to build a gentler life, small daily victories and struggles, mental health, and job-hunting reflections

My hobbies are: walking in quiet neighborhoods, beginner yoga, journaling, solo dining adventures, reading nonfiction, and classical guitar.

I'm looking to meet people who: are kind, nonjudgmental, gentle, and thoughtful. People who understand being in transition and trying to build a life that feels more like their own.

My posting schedule tends to be: more or less daily.

When I add people, my dealbreakers are: cruelty, judgment, political hostility, and unsolicited advice.

Before adding me, you should know: I live with bipolar disorder and write openly about managing it while working full-time. I would love to meet other neurodivergent folks.

Thank you for your patience while I dealt with computer issues. Without further ado, here is this week's word

Assiduous

as·sid·u·ous ə-ˈsij-wəs -ˈsi-jə-

adjective
Showing great care, attention, and effort: marked by careful unremitting attention or persistent application.

"An assiduous book collector."

From Merriam-Webster:

While assiduous means “showing great care, attention, and effort,” and in some situations may be an appropriate substitute for careful, it’s got a bit more oomph than careful in that it suggests a dogged or tireless persistence. If you are assiduous in your efforts (or work, research, analysis, training, preparations, etc.) for example, it’s implied that you’re in it for the long haul, or that you have the ability to “sit with” a task or challenge for a considerable amount of time. This makes sense given that assiduous comes from the Latin verb assidēre, meaning “to sit beside.”

Halfway through Sorting of Office/Art Supplies
iPhone 13 mini photo

In this situation, the only solution is to blow everything up and reassemble pieces. The photo above is actually after a lot of sorting and reorganization has been done, and organized items are put away. But obviously there’s still a lot of work to do.

In opening all the boxes at the same time and moving items onto the table, I learned I had two sets of four rolls of double-sided tape... and then found two giant rolls of double-sided tape. (Yes, I use a lot of double-sided tape.) Now they’re all in one place, and I won’t be tempted to buy another roll.

I had 5 + 1 + 1 boxes of 5000 Swingline staples (plus a small box). One of those boxes was from J.K.Gill when I was young and was on sale for 69¢, originally $1.25. I’ve never finished one box, and it’s clear I’ll never need 7 full boxes of staples. At least four boxes are in the giveaway pile. So is an extra stapler – and a third Scotch tape dispenser. (I think that dispenser is the one I kept at work. The extra pair of scissors I kept at work is also in this surplus pile.)

I’ll continue to separate the necessities from the collectables (e.g., Nyanko Burger stationery) from the Don’t Need This Stuff Anymore clutter. I’m aggressively cutting back so that I don’t fill up my storage. I was really worried about storage for a while, but I’m less freaked out as items are falling into place. We’ll see how it goes.

There are 2 prompts. I asked the Wheel how we were going to handle this:

- People pick which prompt they wanted, it's in one poll
- People pick which prompt they wanted, each prompt is in it's own poll
- Write both prompts

and... *spins* 3,

You are writing both prompts!!

Those prompts are:

kako no ashioto

The deadline to link your entries back to this post is Monday December 1st at 7pm ET. Showing some mercy due to the holiday. :)

This year's annual'd shown her mind a bit, gone into her serving the Zanni and his need to make the world a circus.

She's been the head of Spheric Solutions, the super-weapons company militarizing Blüdhaven's police - legitimacy that's not looking so much to police commissioner Maggie Sawyer.

Sawyer and Nightwing knew her tie to recent disappearances of children. Nightwing went after Pearce for that - and for what a scheme of her brain'd done to Bryce Moran in issue #131.

( She met him. )

Hello 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.

This Week's Question (courtesy of

ysabetwordsmith): When learning a new art or craft, do you prefer level-grinding the basics, skipping ahead to the cool techniques, or a mix of both?

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!

Current Mood: tired
Current Location: my desk

Hello everyone!! I hope you're having an enjoyable time with your doodles!

The deadline is approaching; works are due in a little over one week on Sunday, November 30 at 10 PM PST. Depending on your time zone, this may be on Monday for you--you can check how much remaining time you have on the countdown timer.

Be sure to submit your doodle to the Doodle 4 Doodle collection, request an extension, or default using the default button by the deadline!

Extension Requests

All works (including all assignments and all pinch hits) are currently due on November 30.
All extension requests will be granted!
Be sure to request an extension before the deadline (countdown timer).
You may request an extension with a new due date of 10pm PST on December 6th, or 10pm PST on December 7th.
If you need to request an extension, please get in touch on the screened mod post or by email!

Remember to check your work

Please check your assignment before work reveals to make sure your embed links are working and your images are visible. Sometimes there are issues with image hosts disabling embeds/changing links to expire after a short period of time. This is especially true if you hosted your doodle on Discord.

I will be checking all assignments after the deadline to make sure images are visible & embedded on ao3. I will attempt to catch any broken links at that time, but I may not catch everything, so be sure to double-check your works!

Collection Opening

As a reminder: the collection opening will be delayed if every participant does not have a gift. Any participants who were defaulted on and have no gifts will be posted as post-deadline pinch hits after the assignment deadline next week.

We also currently have a pinch hitter request up! Please check those out!!

If you have any questions or comments about your assignments, or you need to request an extension, you can contact me on the screened mod post or email me at outstandingfroggie2@proton.me. Good luck!!

We've had this challenge once before, in 2018. O_O Icon your favorite band/singer/musician/composer. Living, dead, modern, classical, fictional, who is your favorite music maker of all time?

If you want it to be a bit more challenging, I'm adding an optional bonus restriction: pick someone who sings in a language other than English. I don't know how to make this fit classical composers, maybe just someone less well-known?
