new home for political rpf

i couldn't locate a comm on dw for political rpf so i made one!

if you remember the glory days of rahmbamarama on livejournal or just yearn to chat about political rpf and memes on a platform with more lax content policies than tumblr/discord then check out

politicalrpf! punditslash is welcome too, as is historical rpf if it's politics-related. the comm is obviously still a work in progress but please consider joining so we can build this field of dreams together. hinged, unhinged, it's all good as long as we can respect each other and have fun.

Kittens and Spitefic

kittens_and_spitefic is a community with an unusual approach to prompting content: Spite.

Have you ever seen someone with the most rancid take available and the only thing you want to do is shove things at them which prove them wrong, or shower them in cat macros/lolcats to show them exactly how seriously you take them? Kittens and Spitefic may be the place for you!

The goal of this community is to prompt creativity by acting like a total troll and pretending to bash what you want to see up one side and down the other. Commenters then engage with the supposed "troll" by spamming them with cute animal pics and/or content that caters to everything the original poster professes to hate: Writing short (or long) fics in the comments, drawing the exact thing OP was ranting about, even sharing links to fic recs and meta/analysis posts. Roleplay getting one up on someone with bad opinions while creating more work for something you love, and discover new things you may be a fan of in the process!

Still not quite sure how it works? While most posts are locked to the community to prevent misunderstandings, once a month a public post is made for non-members to get a sense of how things are run. Check out this month's public post: "Only one bed"? More like only one BLAH!, or the public posts tag to see some examples of how the community works. Posts never officially close, so feel free to respond to any that strike your fancy, no matter how old they are!

And be sure to read the rules in the community profile.

Current Mood: excited

Fat Bear Week on Dreamwidth

An annual favorite for fans of wild animals and bracket competitions everywhere, Fat Bear Week is back! And this year, there's a dedicated discussion forum right here on Dreamwidth.

fatbearweek is the brand new (unofficial) comm for Explore.org and Katmai National Park's annual celebration of brown bears and fatness, Fat Bear Week! We're here to look at fat bears, talk about fat bears, and, of course, debate which bear should ultimately be crowned... the Fattest of the Fat.

Fat Bear Week on Dreamwidth is intended to help people come together and make new friends while discussing the things that REALLY matter in life, that is, fat bears. For community and posting rules, see our intro post here. We look forward to having you!

Do your coworkers suck? Do you hate your boss?

Then

co_workers_suck is for you!

co_workers_suck is all about venting because of those rascally people you work with or for!

There's only a couple of rules: No trolling and no name calling. This is where you go to complain about people at work, not the nice people here.

Awesome Sauce!

Hip hip! Here's a second call for membership to a project of awesome! (first call was yelled in

lj_refugees... holla frienditos!)

So yes, this awesome project! What is it? It's

sauce. That's right, sauce. But not just any sauce. It's Awesome Sauce, a community for all things that rock our world. This can be anything from finding the likeness of Jesus in your plate of spaghetti, trending memes, pretty flowers, funny marquees, spectacular graffiti, the bizarre and slightly disturbing (but still strangely awesome for its own sake), crazy fashion, awesome art... seriously? The list doesn't end. Put it simply:

If it rocks your world DOUBLE COMPLETELY, frickin' post it. We crave awesome just as much as you crave to share it. That's what we want. That's what we're here for.

Sound good? Likey like? Want to help us build the best collection of awesome and win that Dreamwidth has to offer? Then hit up

sauce and start sharing that win!

Discussion and Review
Membership: Open
Posting Access: All Members
Community description: This is a community to discuss and promote webcomics, both yours and those you enjoy. Feel free to post reviews and (constructive) criticisms here.

When I joined, I was given a slew of wonderful recommendations: Skin Deep, Tails, Paradigm Shift, and a load of others. I was also able to promote my own comics posted at Interrobang Studios and my studio's upcoming convention appearances.

It's been a little while since the community started and I believe we're all reading the same (amazing) comics. We would love some new blood with new recommendations, or even a helpful critic or two to post some reviews and start discussions. I know I would adore talking shop with fellow artists about not only the art end of things but the business end as well.

If you would like to meet other folks on the con-circuit, to talk to others about their online projects, to read as much good stuff as the community can rec, or to hear people's thoughts on various webcomics, please join us! Our current crew is very friendly. :)

spn_j2_icons - for all J2 and Supernatural icons and graphics

tattoos - for tattoos!
