Unified Theory of Everything Post 2020

[arysteia.livejournal.com]

Friends, Romans, Countrymen, lend me your reckons! I come to use livejournal as an archive repository, not to overwhelm it and crash the robust, Russia dwelling, servers.

THIS WILL BE THE ONLY SIGN UP/REGISTRATION/VOLUNTEER/RESTAURANT BOOKING/PIZZA ORDER POST OF 2020. DO EVERYTHING HERE.

There will be a hard cut off of Thursday October 1 to sign up, order pizza, confirm attendance at dinner, pay your subs etc. This is not a drill, if you are habitually late signing up or rsvping for things, do not do that this year. I am not willing to make extra difficulties for essential workers in this year of our trials and tribulations 2020.

There will be an update email going out shortly, and likely another later in the week, and as always up to the minute updates will go out on twitter. There will also be at least one more post here with final confirmation of times, venues, and event timetables.

Please fill out the following form as a top level comment to this post. (You can, of course, converse as you wish in replies to each other.) If you can't log in, just put your public pseud in the subject line. Don't worry about overthinking stuff, it's just rorshach blots and pub quiz fodder. Obviously if your presentation is still evolving you can give a general indication here and add detail later.

Subs are $33, same as always. Bank account details are in the email.

I would like to do a presentation on x and I need 10/20/30 minutes to do it:

Current favourite fandom: I can't pick favourites.

Current OTP (or OT3 etc): Kim Kitsuragi/Harry du Bois

One true undying, always returning, forever fandom and/or OTP: I mean they call them the Aubrey/Maturin books in bookstores.

Fandoms cruelly cast by the wayside: I love all my children equally. [Am mostly a lurker but dabbled in hockey RPF, Person of Interest, Darkest Dungeon, U2 way back in the day.]

The best fic of all time is: No, really, my brain is bad at favourites.

The best vid of all time is: REALLY I don't do favourites but Mayhem Twins by allaroundthemorning is bookmarked I guess.

The First Timers Only Section

I discovered fandom by: OG livejournal days.

I discovered g/t by: I've been aware of g/t as long as g/t has been a thing, just unable to attend first due to Distance and then due to working a seasonal job!

I am a writer/reader/artist/podficcer/reccer/archivist/lurker etc: Primarily a lurker these days. I long to write fic but now that I spend most of my days writing for work I don't really have the steam to come home and write more.

I do the bulk of my fannish activity at x platform(s) and my pseud(s) there is/are: ao3 where I change pseuds every fandom for identity protection purposes, currently yenisey.

My favourite tropes are: Sloooooooooooooooooooooow burn, rivals to lovers, dramatic rescue.

My most hated tropes are: Isekai/portal fantasy. A/B/O.
