My comment got HOW many likes?!
Oct. 5th, 2025 12:59 ammxcatmoonA comment of mine on a YouTube video blew up. It has 1.5 K likes and 155 replies!
Yikes!
I've never had that happen before. I'm not entirely comfortable with it, and TBH I've only read a couple of them. I mostly aim for invisibility on social media. A lot of the comments are in response to others' comments, and veering off topic in discussion's amongst themselves, but still, I don't aim to be a popular poster! It was only a couple of short sentences, but it's mostly just a fluke, I think. Plenty of people have posted more meaningful, thoughtful, in-depth comments. But still, mine has twice as many likes as anyone else's there.
Yikes!

Ownership of the Soul + Miami Vice
Oct. 3rd, 2025 01:52 ammxcatmoonSo, I've gone all-in with Miami Vice, and am about to start a re-watch of the episodes. It's been providing a much-needed distraction from the horrible things that are going on in this reality we're living in. It's something I'm enjoying and looking forward to when I get home from work. I really need that to counteract the anxiety and depression I've been dealing with. I think the fact that it's an old show from a better time helps too, because I do have a current fandom that I've been much more involved with, but it hasn't provided me with this kind of diversion. I'm vibing on the nostalgia. The 1980s was a good time for me.

[#276 | Moonlit Kisses] Challenge Post
Oct. 1st, 2025 10:31 pmfanweeklymod posting in fandomweekly| Challenge 276: MOONLIT KISSES |
A meeting with a secret lover? A romantic date night? Or maybe it’s just been a long day, or a long week, and all our heroes have the energy for is a single exhausted kiss in the dark. Kissing under the moonlight can be the perfect end to a lovely date: a nice dinner or a boat ride or a walk through the garden, ending under a beautiful full moon. But the moon can also be an unwanted spotlight on a rendezvous the people involved would rather keep in the dark – a forbidden relationship, a politically dangerous romance, or just a relationship everyone involved wants to keep private. Write a story about moonlit kisses. If your submission features this line, it will earn an extra point to be tallied in voting! |
| Challenge ends Monday, October 6 at 9:00PM EST. • Post submissions as new entries using the template in the profile • Tag this week's entries as: [#] submission, 276 – moonlit kisses • If you have questions about this challenge, please ask them here |
