[ SECRET SUBMISSIONS POST #980 ]




The first secret from this batch will be posted on October 18th.



RULES:
1. One secret link per comment.
2. 750x750 px or smaller.
3. Link directly to the image.

More details on how to send a secret in!

Optional: If you would like your secret's fandom to be noted in the main post along with the secret itself, please put it in the comment along with your secret. If your secret makes the fandom obvious, there's no need to do this. If your fandom is obscure, you should probably tell me what it is.

Optional #2: If you would like WARNINGS (such as spoilers or common triggers -- list of some common ones here) to be noted in the main post before the secret itself, please put it in the comment along with your secret.

Optional #3: If you would like a transcript to be posted along with your secret, put it along with the link in the comment!

Fisher Space Pen

sineala: A close-up photo of an uncapped fountain pen, a 1955 Sheaffer Sentinel Snorkel in burgundy. (Fountain Pen)
[personal profile] sineala
I know it's weird to delurk with a random pen review but, whatever, hi. I have a bunch of half-finished posts from like six months to a year ago that were going to be about the book I read or the game I played but then I got like twenty migraines in a row and the plot details became less memorable. I am still getting like twenty migraines in a month but a pen review has no plot. I have no idea if I will keep posting anything at all (possible topics: more pens, fandom, more dead languages) but I'm here now and I have enough caffeine that I can't feel my current migraine.

Also, this isn't a fountain pen -- it's a ballpoint pen -- so the people reading this who aren't fountain pen nerds might actually want one. It's the Fisher Space Pen! I really like it!

The Young Wizards fans among you might be interested, although I actually didn't buy the one I probably should have bought. More details below.

rereading older fic...

muccamukk: Marcus looking unimpressed. Text: "do tell" (Elementary: Do Tell)
[personal profile] muccamukk
(yes, I am working on an English paper, I swear)

...and noticing that not only did my smut scenes tend to be a bit abrupt (which had been mentioned, and is something I've worked to improve), but that I can be a bit continuity intensive.

Just because I have read every comic this character is in, or read three books and a number of academic papers on this topic, does not mean all of those details have to be in the resulting fic.

The iceberg theory of research really is something I could stand to take on board.

Recent Music

muccamukk: Billie tips his face towards the bi-flag sky, eyes closed, as Tré and Mike kiss his cheeks. (Music: Bisexual Green Day)
[personal profile] muccamukk
I listen to music a lot while studying, and often just click on whatever whatever on YouTube Music's "new releases" page, which has been more or less working out.

I'm still listening to Something Beautiful (Deluxe) by Miley Cyrus a lot, might be my favourite album this year. Though Noah's new album is up there (haven't listened to the Deluxe of that yet, which is still a concept I hate).

Vivek Shraya has a new... whatever her style is... EP out, New Models, which has been enjoyable, though I've only listened to it a couple times through. It's refreshingly direct, which is kind of her thing.

I don't have Taylor Swift thoughts, other than I enjoy that "Cancelled" seems to be about Blake Lively, that's giving a lot of people a big mad, and now Blake and Taylor are wearing each other's jewellery like exceptionally rich twelve year old girls.

Doja Cat's Vie has been a lot of fun! I don't think I like it as much as [youtube.com profile] OlurinattiMUSIC does in her review, but it's fun to vibe along with. I like Doja Cat's rapping a bit more than her singing (which is lovely! I just find her rap style really compelling, and would like more of it), so didn't like this as much as Scarlett, but still have it in rotation. "Paint the Town Red" is still the one stuck in my head, though.

I think William Prince is leading up to a new album, which I'm very excited about. I wasn't that into his last couple projects, and am hoping this one will be more like Reliever. The first few singles are promising.

Might be getting something new from Burnstick, also \o/

Nonviolent Resistance Training

[personal profile] mxcatmoon posting in [community profile] thisfinecrew
The YouTube Channel Parkrose Permaculture is doing a video series on Nonviolent Resistance
 
With military invading our cities, I think this is very helpful knowledge to have. It comes from the information this person obtained from attending a Nonviolent Resistance Bootcamp. They live in Portland, Oregon, one of the places troops have been sent in a show of force against non-violent citizens exercising their Constitutional Rights, so they are a good source of factual information for what's really going on there, as well. They are calm, rational, hopeful and insightful and I've found their videos very helpful in putting things in perspective when I'm starting to freak out.  They aren't pandering to sensationalism the way many channels do. I highly recommend all their videos.

CA trans issues - call Gavin Newsom

Oct. 7th, 2025 08:58 pm

[personal profile] toastykitten posting in [community profile] thisfinecrew
Per Trans News Network, there are currently 10 bills on Gavin Newsom's desk that support LBGQT+ rights:

Trans Rights Bills

  • AB 82 / SB 497 – These privacy-focused bills provide needed confidentiality for patients, providers, and volunteers involved with trans healthcare. AB 82 offers important protections for reproductive healthcare, and prevents prescription data about drugs like testosterone and mifepristone from being stored in databases that could be accessible by other states.

  • AB 1084 / SB 59 – This pair of legal name change bills includes one that streamlines the process of updating legal name and gender, and another to ensure that older court records of name changes can’t be used to out or dox trans people.

  • SB 418 – Bolsters nondiscrimination protections for health insurance plans and requires the plans to cover up to a 12-month supply of prescription hormones.

LGBTQ+ Rights Bills

  • AB 554 – Requires insurance coverage of all FDA-approved medications that prevent HIV such as PreP, without prior authorization. 

  • AB 727 – Mandates that schools and universities must provide all youth suicide hotline information, including numbers for LGBTQ+ hotlines in the wake of Trump’s defunding of the Trevor Project hotline.

  • AB 678 – Requires state housing programs to coordinate with LGBTQ+ communities to ensure homelessness programs remain inclusive and nondiscriminatory for queer people experiencing homelessness, directly combatting federal efforts to force homeless shelters to ban trans people. 

  • SB 590 – Expands paid family leave protections to include the diverse caregiving needs of queer families.

  • SB 450 – Clarifies California adoption law to allow for LGBTQ+ couples who live outside of California to adopt children born in the state through California proceedings, which are more inclusive than many other states.


Call him at (916) 445-2841 to ask him to sign these bills into law.
