there's a post going around my dash asking about how people find fic to read on AO3, so I thought I'd make a poll about it.

i'm partial to a good rec post, and i do enjoy a good peruse of other people's bookmarks.

anyway let me know how you do it

a lunchtime poll

Was thinking the other day on my way into work: how exactly do people prefer their sandwiches?

First, an obligatory relevant Supernatural gif because this is tumblr

and if you feel so inclined, please share your favourite type of sandwich in comments or tags. Mine is a diagonal-cut Ruben (including thousand-island, yes)

#it's lunchtime somwhere #mhalachai polls the constituency #food #i also enjoy a homemade egg salad

I was staring at the calendar, dissociating for a while, when something occurred to me that I wanted to poll around:

(PS this poll is primarily aimed at those using the Gregorian calendar - tell me about your calendaring system in the notes :))

#my week begins on Monday #gotta get the work done before one can rest etc etc #mhalachai polls the constituency

was too exhausted to make dinner so I had a slice of sourdough and spent the toasting time wondering what I could put on it to make it more of a meal.

Then I wondered: What do you all put on your toast?

if anyone's interested, here's a hint as what I ended up doing:

#i love me some honey #mhalachai polls the constituency #food #i'll do a savory toast topping poll next week

Backstory: say I want to write a story where one of the main characters underwent a magical curse which transformed him into a cat-man/man-cat (something out of the Panthera genus; lion tiger leopard etc) and i'm trying to figure out the physical appearance/logistics of it all

so. question:

Basically at this point i'm waffling between Vincent (Ron Perlman) in the 1987 series Beauty and the Beast (below, right)

and Tony the Tiger

#yeah even i didn't know where this came from #the problem with writing a beauty and the beast au is that one must first invent the beast #which isn't really a problem #anyway tell me what to do #writing is hard #mhalachai polls the constituency

library tales

the other day i got a hold notice from my local library so I obligingly trudged over to the branch, located conveniently above an actual firehall for maximum quiet study space. With me, i had a book that I finally admitted I would never read, and instead of keeping it at home where I stared at it for weeks and kept renewing it "just in case" I got around to it... I took it back.

Which got me to thinking about what other people do, because i'm pretty sure that's not the norm.

So: Poll time
