I got about45 minutes into Persona 5 Royal (so almost through the intro!), but I don't think I'll be going much further with that one. I'm still playing Platinum otherwise, and debating a Fire Emblem run soon, just because it's been a little while.
Wrapping up ORAS and debating between Platinum and Heart Gold. It's nostalgia week, I guess, as my husband is currently replaying a bunch of Final Fantasy games. XD
I struggle with talking about my fics on other sites. I briefly maintained a blog to link to my AO3 posted fics...but I think there was a sense of "who I am doing this for again?" combined with distractability. XD
Sites like Tumblr really are fandom dependent. Certain fandoms have a home there and you can easily find content, but not ALL of them.
I gave up on Twitter while it was still cool! (That is to say, I just did not keep up with it and what it's become has not made returning appealing.)
I honestly feel weird talking about my own works outside of the sites on which they're posted. I become suddenly self-conscious and struggle to go into detail. But, I love hearing about what everyone else is working on and I beta read a lot of my husband's works.
In some places your disconnected cellphone can still be used to call emergency services, which can make them good for the car, workshops, etc.
Honestly, I have found Kbin to be a really solid experience. I think it pulls off a lot. so when I say I'm always happy for things to improve, I really just mean I'm happy for them to grow into themselves. :)
I actually think that for those who wish to migrate, or even just diversify, a slow migration through awareness building is ideal. A lot of forums that people rely on won't easily be built up overnight. Not to mention the strain of so many people moving over to new platforms at once.
I remember reading about the various challenges that came about when the Twitter meltdown began. Everything from emergency announcements to disability advocacy and support wound up being impacted.
We still don't know what the future of Reddit is. Whether things up wind up resolving for better or worse with the platform (and tbh I hope it's better for the many people who still love it and have found an online home there), establishing an awareness of alternatives is great. It means people will know they have somewhere to go if the ship goes down.
I feel like with Twitter it was a lot harder for people to find that and many are still looking.
Mob Psycho 100
This one is still fairly recent, but it's just so good. It's kind of like Dragon Ball Z meets sweet slice of life anime? The Reigen Manga that followed was also amazing!
Revolutionary Girl Utena
This one is straight up a classic and it's been on my list for years, despite knowing relatively little about it. It's notoriously thick and heavy on the symbolism. I can see why it was so popular for its time. I don't know that it's a favorite, but I feel like I'll spend the rest of my life unpacking all of it.
The original Yugioh anime.
I'm cheating a little bit because I finished this one slightly less recently than the others, but also I love it and this thread is making me consider if a rewatch is in order soon. Probably after MP100, because I'm still not over that one.
@Shortcake I'm obsessed with Mob Psycho 100, but for other comedies...
Kaguya-Sama: Love Is War is hilarious and so is Bocchi the Rock. They're both more in the slice of life category, but the relationships between characters are front and center in a way that is less slapstick and more personal? I guess. KSLW especially is just...hilarious, even if you're not in it for the love story.

This is such a mood.
I wrote an entire fic in one sitting as a primer, and now I'm stuck halfway through another, but brainstorming maniacally.
Am very intrigued by this "Finish What You Started" event, despite not generally being a big events type. (I don't dislike them, they just don't always align with my energy and therefore they're not as useful to me much of the time. )
This weekend was a bit more busy, but in a pleasant way, as we got to see some loved ones and we're making progress on acclimating a couple of adopted cats. :)
