"The only comments that have ever bothered me were the ones from people who assumed we were just trying to be gratuitous without any deeper purpose. The very nature of the comic medium requires a lot of investment on the part of the reader and I can understand how some readers might not look deeper than the surface but that certainly doesn't mean there isn't a lot under there." -- Jacen Burrows

In a generally unsurprising plot twist, all three of the Babylon 5 vids in this year's Festivids were by me. I haven't gotten around to properly reposting them to my signed vid account, but for now the signed vids are uploaded to the anonymous account and they can also be downloaded by clicking through to Vimeo as an interim measure until I get them properly posted for download.

I also added them to my Sholio Vids collection.

Some random notes on this year's vidding under the cut.

Per my last post, I intended to make two specific dishes for dinner this weekend (panko-crusted pork chops and pasta with sausage and cabbage), and my groceries were ordered with that in mind. Three guesses as to what did not arrive with my order, and the first two don't count. (Spoiler: it was the sausage and the pork chops.)

Sigh.

I gave up on today and just ordered pizza, and I think tomorrow I will pivot to mac and cheese because I have all the ingredients for that without having to do a second grocery delivery.

This afternoon, I baked an apple-cranberry crumble since I had 2 apples I hadn't eaten yet and all those cranberries hanging around. Instead of walnuts, I used pecans and instead of raisins I used chocolate chips, and I used maple sugar over the fruit instead of regular, and it smells fantastic. I can't wait to cut into it. I might need to make some whipped cream to eat with it.

The wind is whipping around like crazy and it's supposed to be super extra cold tomorrow, so I hope everyone is safe and warm, wherever you are.

What We’re Doing For #IFD2026

Posted by Elintiriel

February 15 is almost here, and it’s time to get ready for the 12th annual International Fanworks Day (IFD)! This year’s theme is Alternate Universes (AUs), and in honor of #IFD2026, the OTW has quite a few activities planned to celebrate with all of you. Check out the list below to find out how you can get involved!

  • Feedback Fest: It wouldn’t be IFD without our annual Feedback Fest! This is your chance to share your favorite Alternate Universe fanworks and get some great recommendations for yourself in return. Look for our Feedback Fest post on February 13, and leave a comment with 10 fanwork recommendations for your fellow fans. On social media, use the tag #FeedbackFest when posting.
  • Share your fanworks: Tag your own AU fanworks on AO3 with International Fanworks Day 2026, or share them on social media using the #IFD2026 or #IFDChallenge2026 tags!
  • Fanlore Challenge: The festivities aren’t limited to AO3! Fanlore, the OTW’s fannish history and culture wiki, will be celebrating as well! From February 10-16, join Fanlore for a new editing challenge to complete every day. To participate, refer to the IFD 2026 Fanlore Challenge page for more information.
  • Games and Fan Chat: On February 15, we’ll be opening the gates of the OTW’s once-a-year Discord server. Join us between 21:00 UTC February 14 (What time is that for me?) and 03:00 UTC February 16 (What time is that for me?) to play games and chat with other fans! The chat room will be moderated in English, and we’ll post a detailed schedule on the 15th.

We also invited you to send us your community events for this IFD, so in addition to what we’re doing, here are some fan-led events:

The Fandom Melodies, Intertwined Edition

(in English, some small parts in other languages allowed)

This event is already running, and ends on February 28. You can submit entries in any form, though written material is preferred.

You can learn more on their event information page.

Hey, Sweetheart

(in any language)

This all-fandom fic & art fest will run from February 13 to February 15, and you can submit works in any language.

You can learn more on their event information page.

FebUcomment

This event will run from February 1 to February 28. It’s meant to motivate people to comment more on fic (new and older!), especially since February is the month with the lowest amount of commenting! There are multiple challenges and there are also fun things one can do to spice up their comment a little!

You can learn more on their event information page.

Lov bobříků s Fanpolis

(in Czech and Slovak)

This event will run from February 16 to February 22, and is all about editing Fanpolis’ fandom encyclopedia.

You can learn more on their event information page.

Glory of the Fanworks

(in any language)

This event will run from February 15 to February 28. You can participate however you like, and there will be a set of questions provided for people to reminisce about and share their fandom experience!

You can learn more on their event information page.

Thank you so much for being a part of our fan community throughout the year. See you at #IFD2026!

Scorpions by LadyRa (Explicit)

[personal profile] melagan posting in [community profile] stargateficrec
Show: The Sentinel/Stargate SG-1

Rec Category: Crossovers
Characters: Jim Ellison, Blair Sandburg, Jack O'Neill, Daniel Jackson, Samantha Carter, Teal'c
Pairings: Jim/Blair, Jack/Daniel (mirror universe Jim/Blair), previous Blair/Daniel
Categories: Slash
Warnings: None
Author's Journal: Unknown
Author's Website: AO3 profile
Link: Scorpions

Why This Must Be Read: This story is well-balanced between the two fandoms. I'd classify it as Action-adventure with some Guide gifts (and Jack's reaction to that) thrown in.

Both the Jack and Jim in our universe are in denial about their feelings for the men in their lives. It's a slow clue bus, but it eventually gets there (and the trip shouldn't be missed).
