Organizing Your Belongings for when you Don't Want to Organize Your Belongings by buttonsbeadslace
For me, the difficult part about organizing is setting aside time & mental energy to go through a whole pile of items in one sitting. This is a method for answering questions like "Which of these pairs of pants actually fit me well?" or "What supplies do I need for This Activity?" not by asking that question over and over for a bunch of items, but by going about your daily life and letting the answer shake out by itself.
The basic idea is simple: you choose a temporary new place to put the type of things you are trying to organize, but you do not, initially, put anything in there. Items go in the temporary new place after you have used them in the course of your regular item-using.
This is an absolutely brilliant approach for people whose main obstacle against organizing is the inability to find a big enough chunk of time and energy. Here you don't need that, you just move things as you use them. It makes the last round of cleanup much quicker and easier. You can also combine that round with the "box it and ignore it for X time to see if you miss it" technique. \o/

The rain for this week was predicted to be pretty heavy, so we were prepared just in case, but as it actually got closer, it seemed the worst would be on the 24th, and then lighter rain on the 25th. We still planned to take parkas and umbrellas, but that morning it was dry and the forecast said there might be some light rain in the afternoon, but not a steady all-day thing, so when we got to the park we actually ended up leaving the parkas and umbrellas in the car.

Death classes, taught by a combination of spiritual leaders, medical professionals, and retired actors, encouraged people to make peace with their eventual demise by facing it head-on. Exercises included practical planning with legal advice, but spent more time on often outrageous playacting of possible final moments to help adjust to the idea of dying. In addition to the elderly and terminally ill, the classes always saw a few misfit attendees, frequently alarmingly young, who often turned out to be psychopomps in the making.

Some recs, mostly from ficinabox!
as long as i can breathe (i can't let go of you again) by beta_babelfish (Dreamcatcher: Deja Vu MV, Yoohyeon/Jiu, 5.2K)
Time-loop variant interpretation of the MV. I thought it was very cool!
let the summer breeze talk to us by Kalcifer (SDR2, Komaeda/Hinata, 2K)
Post-canon fic that did a really neat job with the merging of Kamukura and Hinata.
wave goodbye to the end of beginning (Alice in Borderland, Chishiya & Kuina, 2.1K)
A ‘missing scene’ for these two – just a lovely little character piece.
love can make you come alive (or take your life away) by withhardshipease (Death Note, Misa/L, 10.4K)
Canon divergence where Misa and L bond over sweets late at night; a fun read, and I enjoyed the author’s take on Misa a lot.
Frightening Things (White Christmas, Jo Youngjae/Yu Eunsung, 1.9K)
My gift fic fromkoreanfandomsex! I enjoyed it muchly ♥ Loved the Eunsung POV.

Using my TV Show PTW boardgame.
I completed 6/6 from my last challenge, I enjoyed them all so much I totally neglected my Asian drama challenge......
Avatar: Thriller (Dark)
Skill: Cover 2 shows with 1 prompt
Roll #1
A 10, prompt: longest titled. Miraculous: Tales of Ladybug & Cat Noir can't be beat in this category lol
Roll #2
A 5, comedy element. Danny Phantom.
Roll #3
A 6, generate from PTW list. #45. Took a while because I had to do some research and removed a few things;; Maniac is the result, it's about 2 people who do a trial of pills to try and solve their problems but it leads to dream-like worlds in their minds where they keep connecting with each other.
Roll #4
A 10, prompt: contemporary. Red Rose,
Roll #5
An 8 and the end. This was hard because there's a few things I'd be happy to continue, but I'm going with Camp Cretaceous as my reward. I totally forgot to use my skill ahhh.

Summary:
If one had a long enough tape measure, enough guts to bring it out in the middle of a packed, upscale Italian restaurant, and enough fortuitous timing to use it whilst the two best male tennis players in the world were sitting at opposite ends of said restaurant smack bang in the middle of the 2025 US Open, one would find that the distance between the tables they’d each been assigned was around seventy-eight feet.
or, a triptych: Sinner and Alcaraz consider food and each other, during and after the 2025 US Open; from hotel rooms to Italian restaurants to hazy New York nightclubs.
Mods, please could I have a Tennis RPF fandom tag?

It's gift card season and there are a couple sorts of books I would like to get with mine, but I don't even know what sorts of terms to start searching on.
1) Something about different legal systems and the philosophies that go with them. How they shape how people think about what the law is even for, and so forth. Would prefer to focus on modern systems, but historical examples are fine if they help illuminate the present. (E.g. I have come across mentions a few times that things work in such and such a way in France or its former colonies because they were shaped by the Napoleonic code.)
2) How the governments of really huge cities/metropoles work.
Blogs or newsletters are okay too. But no podcasts or YouTube series unless they're scripted, please.

Hello to all members, passers-by, curious onlookers, and shy lurkers, and welcome to our regular daily check-in post. Just leave a comment below to let us know how your current projects are progressing, or even if they're not.
Checking in is NOT compulsory, check in as often or as seldom as you want, this community isn't about pressure it's about encouragement, motivation, and support. Crafting is meant to be fun, and what's more fun than sharing achievements and seeing the wonderful things everyone else is creating?
There may also occasionally be questions, but again you don't have to answer them, they're just a way of getting to know each other a bit better.
This Week's Question: What are your crafting goals for 2026?
If anyone has any questions of their own about the community, or suggestions for tags, questions to be asked on the check-in posts, or if anyone is interested in playing check-in host for a week here on the community, which would entail putting up the daily check-in posts and responding to comments, go to the Questions & Suggestions post and leave a comment.
I now declare this Check-In OPEN!

1. You have the summer and plenty of money to travel abroad. Where all would you go?
2. What foods would you be sure you got to eat?
3. What landmarks would you be sure you got to see?
4. What airline would you use?
5. Would your knowledge of other languages influence where you went? (i.e., would you be more likely to go to France if you spoke French?)
Copy and paste to your own journal, then reply to this post with a link to your answers. If your journal is private or friends-only, you can post your full answers in the comments below.
If you'd like to suggest questions for a future Friday Five, then do so on DreamWidth or LiveJournal. Old sets that were used have been deleted, so we encourage you to suggest some more!
