Challenge #3: Fanmix Yourself
Mar. 1st, 2026 04:39 pmmatsushima posting in fanmix_monthlyThe theme for March 2026's challenge is…
fanmix yourself
Make a fanmix you'd give someone to get to know you. How you interpret this theme is up to you. This could be your Top 10 Favorite Songs, making a mix for yourself like you're your favorite character, a soundtrack to the movie of your life. You can use the prompts from the 2013 version of this meme on Tumblr if you want to but you don't have to.
Remember, the themes are optional. You're welcome to fill old challenges, too.
If you post a mix for this challenge, please remember to tag it with challenge 3: fanmix yourself.
Here are the posting guidelines if you need a refresher.

New Fandom Add-Me for Winter/Spring 2026
Feb. 28th, 2026 08:20 pmspringsodas posting in addme_fandomName: Soda (she/her)
Age group: Zillennial; too young to consider myself a 90s kid, just old enough that I remember most of the 2000s
Country: United States
Subscription/Access Policy: Journal is SFW; any posts that contain potentially triggering content (ex: blood) will be put under a read more. I prefer to interact with users who are at least 20 or older, and will avoid interacting with minors.
Main Fandom: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (2003, IDW, Splintered Fate, and the embryo that is my fan iteration)
Other Fandoms/Interests: Pokemon, Sonic the Hedgehog, The Legend of Zelda, The Sims (2 and 3; I refuse to touch 4), Stardew Valley, "cozy" games, RPGs, platformers, and strategy games, anime, cartoons, comics, manga
Fannish Interests: Fanart, fanfiction, OCs, character design and development, compiling lore, collecting merch
OTPs and Ships: Although I technically still enjoy the act of knocking two characters of my choice together and making kissy noises, I prefer not to describe myself as a "shipper" but merely someone who enjoys exploring the occasional romantic relationship every now and again (because even I admit romance is overrated and there is plenty of joy in exploring friendships and familial relationships, too.) If I do feel like doodling a bit of romance, it's mostly OC x Canon these days.
Other Info
- Officially diagnosed autistic, possibly ADHD as well. Recovering smartphone addict.
- I do fanart, currently am trying to get back into writing fanfic. I'm also planning to debut as a PNGtuber on March 21st.
- Besides fandom things, my journal is mostly the various happenings in my life, as well as any thoughts, feelings, and other ramblings that come to mind.
- Just be kind and respectful and I'll do the same for you.
Dept. of The World is Too Much With Us
Feb. 28th, 2026 07:01 pmkaffy_rDysfunctional Families Close Ranks
Whatever the horrors that Iran's theocracy has visited upon its own people - and they are horrors, as the grieving survivors of at least 7,000 Iranians killed by the regime in the past few months can attest, and the relatives of untold thousands killed in the years since 1979 - people in Iran will put that aside and stand against what we've done to them in the past 36 or so hours.
Your family may break your bones, bruise your mind, or force you down into heartbreak. You may hate your mother or your brother for what they've done to you. You may dream of revenge.
But when the neighborhood bully comes and strikes them down, injured or dead, then turns to you with a smile and says, "You're welcome," and expects you to go to your knees and thank him for that violence? You may well jump on the bastard's back and close your fingers around his neck, or hook them into his eyes, because they were your weight to bear, your sorrow to work through.
Didn't we learn this when we "freed" Iraq?
Apparently not.

i look to you and i see nothing
Feb. 28th, 2026 10:05 pmmusesfoolLast night, I logged off work and got into bed for a proper nap, none of this half-assed falling asleep on the couch business, and I thought I'd set an alarm so it didn't go more than an hour or so, but it turns out that all I did was open up the clock/alarm app on my phone without setting it, so I woke up at 8:30 pm all befuddled. I decided at that point that fuck it, we ball sleep, so I brushed my teeth, changed into my jammies, and went back to bed. And slept pretty well! I woke up once or twice but had no real trouble getting back to sleep, and then I woke up for good around 7:45 am, so it was like a FIFTEEN HOUR night. Which is bonkers, but I guess I needed it?
Anyway, I did a very small recs update today for February:
unfitforsociety has been updated for February 2026 with 7 recs in 3 fandoms:
* 5 Heated Rivalry and 1 Heated Rivalry/Sesame Street crossover
* 1 The Pitt
Maybe once I finish my DCC reread, I will get back to reading more fic, idk. It's just very hard to pay attention to anything these days, thanks to *gestures* everything.
