Hello, Lovlies!
Jan. 18th, 2025 04:33 pmWhat a wonderful community! I have been in the fandom space since forever, but I need to be more social (or less anti-social?), so bear with...
Name: 'Adíshní Mags
Age group: Old enough to know better!
Country: The stolen land of Oz (eat the man behind the curtain)
Subscription/Access Policy: Have at it, I rarely post anything personal or locked. My oldest and dearest fandom friends are lifelong sisters today. <3
Main Fandoms: Stargate SG-1 (20+ years), Sherlock (BBC), Our Flag Means Death, Good Omens, Doctor Who, MacGyver,
Other Fandoms: Star Trek franchise (fav DS9), Star Wars franchise, The X Files, The Simpsons, What We Do In The Shadows, Starsky & Hutch, Dark Winds, Sanctuary, there is probably more, too many...
Fannish Interests: I am a little obsessed with making icons. I have icon-ed every episode of Stargate and Sherlock, and am working my way through my other fandoms. I also make wallpapers and photo manipulations. I wrote a little bit back in the day with 117 stories on Ao3. I absolutely love discussing characters, their motivations, intentions, and possibilities! I love reading fic and am just blown away with how fan art has grown, amazing stuff! (Just don't come at me with that AI rubbish.)
OTPs and Ships: Jack O'Neill/Daniel Jackson (SG-1), Sherlock/John (Sherlock), Edward Teach/Stede Bonnet (OFMD), Crowley/Aziraphale (Good Omens (I stand with the survivors)), 13th Doctor/Yasmin Khan (Doctor Who), Mac/Nikki (MacGyver), I have no beef with anyone else's ships (I survived the ship wars), and I've taken requests for all kinds of pairing, OT3's and so on. Love is love.
Favourite Movies: I am not a big movie buff, forgive me.
TV Shows: All of the above. I am a sucker for a decent sitcom or the like that I can have on in the background, i.e. Bob's Burgers, Friends, Big Bang Theory, QI, Black Books...
Books: Too many to list, and not particularly fannish. I am very choosy about fiction outside of fandom. I most read non fiction, i.e. comparative mythology, treaty and cultural teachings, and works from my professional field.
Music: Queen, Muse, Placebo, Evanescence, Nightwish, Seether, Nirvana, Kendrick Lamar, Kylie, Lil' Nas X, Radiohead...
I like to post about: I almost exclusively post fan art, happy for anyone to follow purely for that. I have written fan fiction in the past - my last was 2023, some meta, and just anything I find amusing really. I used to post conventions panels, photography, etc, but now I am old and sore. *g* I cross post everything to my Tumblr, and related comms/SM.
About Me/Other Info: I started out on the ol' message boards and forums, I've been on Dreamwidth since the beginning, a Livejournal refugee when the Russians took over and banned 'teh geh'! I was also part of the Tumblr purge (I am still there, I just get around their AI). I will not tolerate any bigotry, racism, misogyny, etc. I am a big ol' godless queer native veggie leftie snowflake.
Mwah! <3

Date: 2025-01-18 08:34 am (UTC)I'm a veteran of PHP message boards, and Live Journal, although I only came to Dreamwidth a few years ago and I've just recently started lurking on Tumblr. I mostly avoid big social media sites, because the toxicity isn't good for my mental health, but I love Dreamwidth. I enjoy looking at art and icons, so I will definitely subscribe to your journal. Mine is also mostly fannish and I rarely lock anything - nothing really interesting, anyway!

Date: 2025-01-18 12:35 pm (UTC)Tumblr seems to be the place to find a majority of thoughtful conversations, fiction and arts, though the structure of the site can still be a little confusing for me. (There has been a little resurgence of Starsky & Hutch on my Tumblr feed lately, I need to pay attention to the pages the site is showing me!)
Dreamwidth is that safe space though. I have subscribed back! <3

Date: 2025-01-18 03:46 pm (UTC)I'm mostly on Tumblr to look at the pretty pictures; it's a place I can browse when I have a few minutes during lunch at work or whatever. I have most of my conversations here at DW.
There is a pretty big and active Starsky & Hutch community on Facebook. Unfortunately, I stopped being able to deal with FB quite awhile ago. That's the only thing I miss about that place.

Date: 2025-01-18 03:52 pm (UTC)We share some fandoms, most notably The X Files (I also like The Simpsons although mostly the early seasons) AND a love for m/m pairings and fanfic (I'm a fic writer), so, this seems like a great basis for things? Oh and I love looking at fanart. Sadly I can't do any of my own since I absolutely suck at drawing anything, lol.
Friends?
(If you don't want to add me it's okay tho, no pressure!)

Date: 2025-01-24 07:50 am (UTC)Love classic Simpsons, but I can definitely appreciate the ups and downs of the show ongoing also. I am a bad X Files fan and haven't gotten around to watching the latest season, eep!

Date: 2025-01-24 02:50 pm (UTC)I added you back, thank you so much! And no worries, I don't exactly MIND later X Files seasons but I definitely prefer the older ones!

14,000 slash fics, solid effort my friend!
