New AO3 canonicals I worked on during this round of NF Syn Hunters

Roughly in the reverse order they were finished, most-recent first.

Technically the round ends on the 30th, but I'm not jumping on any new tags at this point! So this is the final version of the list.

I thought about emoji-coding these based on how much work I did ("just one of the final syn checks", "some of the synning", "basically all the synning", etc)...then decided, no, that's too much effort. The point is, over the last 3 months, I did Some Amount Of Wrangling on every single one of these:
  1. Humans Are Space Orcs
  2. Cottagecore
  3. Clit Play
  4. Roommates to Lovers
  5. Pussy Spanking
  6. Fangs
  7. Strangers to Friends
  8. Reader-Insert Has Scars
  9. No Use of Y/N for Reader-Insert
  10. Sexual Free Use
  11. Soulmate Goose of Enforcement
  12. Paranoid Reader-Insert
  13. Gamer Reader-Insert
  14. Enemy to Caretaker
  15. Biting Kink
  16. Purring
  17. Cis Male Reader-Insert
  18. Cis Female Reader-Insert
  19. Masochist Reader-Insert
  20. Phone Sex Operators
  21. Breeding Kink
  22. Mercenary Reader-Insert
  23. Fighting as Foreplay
  24. Past Trans Mpreg | Trans Male Pregnancy
  25. Reader-Insert is Bad at Feelings
  26. Wholesome
  27. Kabeshiri | Stuck in a Wall
  28. Underage Reader-Insert
  29. Forced Proximity
  30. Incontinence
  31. Reader-Insert Wears a Dress
  32. Shapeshifter Reader-Insert
  33. Siren Reader-Insert
  34. Reader-Insert Needs Therapy
  35. POV Reader-Insert
  36. Reader-Insert Wears Glasses
  37. Innocent Reader-Insert
  38. Conlangs | Constructed Languages
  39. TTS | Text-to-Speech Podfic
  40. Micropodfic
  41. Character Has Had Bottom Surgery
  42. Character Has Not Had Bottom Surgery
  43. Bottom Surgery
  44. Rivals to Lovers
  45. Teenage Reader-Insert
  46. Character Has Had Top Surgery
  47. Top Surgery Scars
  48. Mpreg | Male Pregnancy
  49. Transmasculine Reader-Insert
  50. Transfeminine Reader-Insert
  51. English Is Not The Author's First Language
  52. Autistic Characters
  53. Reader-Insert Needs a Hug
  54. Desi Reader-Insert
  55. Asian Reader-Insert
  56. Mind Break
  57. Gender-Neutral Reader-Insert

...so, AMA, I guess?

podcast corner: september 2025


  • On Know Your Enemy, Osita Nwanevu joins hosts Matt Sitman and Sam Adler-Bell to explain “if you are frustrated by the design of our democracy, it is because it was designed to frustrate you.” The life-changing magic of realizing the Founders did not give a shit about democracy! They cared a lot about stability though. Nwanevu has a new book out and his thesis is simple: 1) Democracy is good 2) America is not a democracy 3) we should try to be one. This is the rare leftist podcast that galvanizes me while loading up my Nonfiction TBR. I finally started pledging to their Patreon so I could have Discord access and I guess I’m joining yet another book club ...

  • On The Stacks, Traci Thomas and Alexis Madrigal discuss Braiding Sweetgrass: Indigenous Wisdom, Scientific Knowledge and the Teachings of Plants by Robin Wall Kimmerer. This made me remove Braiding Sweetgrass from my TBR because while it sounds entirely deserving of its “abolitionist classic” status, it also sounds like a text that rewards dipping into and out of rather than reading cover to cover. Alexis and Traci have a thought-provoking conversation about how we police language rather than the hierarchies that gave rise to that language (are realtors really listing houses as having a “primary bedroom” instead of “master bedroom”??).

  • On Life on Books, my favorite “we don’t read lowbrow genres” snobs (affectionate) Tony and Andrew react to an email from a listener who’s mad they don’t read enough books by women. Tony and Andrew are not super pressed about it (Tony and Andrew just released an episode for Women in Translation month). In the next episode, Tony and Andrew tell their supporters to simmer the fuck down. As creators, it was a net positive for them to yammer about this (critical but not rude or threatening) email because what else were they going to talk about on their weekly podcast?! Everything is fodder for the content mines, obviously.

(no subject)

I just realized that September will be over in a couple of days, and I failed to meet my reading goal for this month lol Still, I read more than I did in August, so I'm considering it a win.
Since the last update, I finished "Automatic Noodle" by Annalee Newitz (quick, light, and lovely read <3) and "Le Perfezioni" by Vincenzo Latronico (wasn't perfect, but MAN, was it an accurate representation of Italian millennials deciding to migrate abroad!), and I've started reading "Penance" by Eliza Clark, but I've been going very slow because my brain is refusing to cooperate. Hopefully I manage to lock in and finish it before the end of the month, so I can fully embrace spooky month o7

Temporary reading list for October:

Buffy: (reassuringly) No. We're pre-posy. Definitely.

Minipoem time

Seahorse



I carried you
Even though
I—
I am no woman;

(I will love all things that grow
And are,
And am,
Not barren)

You taught my roots to drink
My trunk to span realms
My branches to embrace the stars:
We were the world,
Together.

You were never as heavy
As how
The world
Saw me.

Weird dream channel, September 2025

I've had a couple of weird dreams over the last two nights. I'm recording them more for my own reference than anything else, but if you decide to read them, I hope you enjoy them. In case you are (as I am) someone who doesn't enjoy reading other people's dreams, I'm putting them behind cuts.

To help distinguish states: IRL = "in real life" (obviously), ITD = "in the dream."

Boosting Bad: The "Manhunter Gold Arc" in BOOSTER GOLD #24-25 and MILLENNIUM #3-8 (JLI 11/?)



The wildest story of the JLI's first year took place entirely outside the pages of Justice League comics. Justice League International didn't even acknowledge it, yet it turned one of the Leaguers' lives upside down and redefined his role within the team for good.

Or was it...FOR EVIL??? )

dear creator: sw rare pair exchange 2025

hi, and thank you for taking a look. for the most part, as long as you take the dnws into account i'll probably enjoy whatever you serve up! further wants / likes / dislikes are below the cut, but please don't feel obligated to stick with any of these ideas, these are just things that i think would be cool, which you are more than welcome to use or discard at your leisure. this is the same dear creator letter i've been using for a while, with minor modifications for this exchange. not all requested relationships are listed, and if our matching criteria isn't listed, just assume i'm very easy to please (it's true!)

dnw: underage, infidelity/cheating, rape/non-con, corporal punishment, spanking or corporal punishment, 'jedi are evil/bad/wrong' storylines, unrelieved angst, hurt no comfort, ahsoka having anything more than a crush on anyone during tcw timeline, obikin (even in the background).

art likes: in general, i like bright colours and happy or soft scenes, characters being affectionate with one another whether that's hugging and cuddling or holding hands. i'm more than okay with explicit art if that's the way you decide to go! digital or traditional media are both great <3

fic likes: in general, i love fluff and fix-its, i love happily ever afters. that said. i am also into whump and h/c as long as there is comfort and resolution! and that can be emotional or physical pain! put them through the wringer if that's what you like, just make sure to get some comfort and cuddles in at the end and tell me everything's going to be okay! i love time travel, and alternate universes can be fun too, i just don't like every bad thing in the universe to be the jedi's fault. i love explorations of jedi culture and temple life, at any point in a jedi's life. with aus, i do prefer ones that take place in the star wars universe, as opposed to modern aus or other aus in vastly different universes, but i'm not wholly opposed to modern/fantasy/etc aus. polyamoury is great, and so is communication.
