when you want to use incognito mode for something you don't want in your browsing history but you forget to open incognito and that thing you wanted for incognito is now in your history and you have to shamefully erase it out of there when you're done

Deleting Her from My Browsing History

Deleting her from my browsing history. After countless futile attempts to draw her closer, I have resolved to delete her from my browsing history. This decision goes beyond relegating her to the trash folder of fleeting thoughts; it is meant to permanently erase her image and presence from the deepest corners of my mind. This is no frivolous act. I have given it the weight of careful…

Hotspot history is a list of your past Wi-Fi connections on your phone. You should delete it to keep your internet activity private and secure. 

The person who owns the WiFi network, ISP, has the ability to see what you search for and the websites you visit, even if you use incognito mode. Additionally, the owner of the router can find this information in the router logs.

Hey, don't cry. 5 Della Van Hise fics in PDF form, saved by the WayBack, all available for download ♡

DVH notoriously had her fics pulled from AO3 and she never uploaded them again. Outside of purchasing the zines she wrote for and created—and given her 14 confirmed pseuds, good luck tracking down everything—finding the odd scan of a zine online or the occasional working archived link from her AO3 is not easy.

(All of these works are linked on Fanlore on the fic's individual pages, but as it always goes with Fanlore, organization is not the best and DVH's main page links to an older version of her site before she offered these stories for free; this is to just get the awareness out and ramble on my blog about it, tiny though it is. As my friend put it went I sent these to her, "This is like Christmas in May!")

For those of us who can't afford to drop $40+ on a zine (average cost; we've all seen higher), lack the space for keeping old zines, or are afraid of opening the door of Buying All The Zines, may this find you well ♡

On Wings of Ice (1987)

"Stranded on a frozen planet when their shuttlecraft is sabotaged, Kirk and Spock share love as they wait for death." [More on Fanlore]; originally published in KSX #1 My 2 cents: I cried with this one and it was worth it. There's phrasing in this one that has me rending my garments.

Collaboration (1987)

"When Kirk points out that their relationship may have become complacent, he and Spock put their heads together to see what can be done to breathe life back into the bedroom. But of course, nothing is ever as straightforward as it seems… A twisted little K/S tale." [More on Fanlore]; originally published in Styx and Stones My 2 cents: One part fic, one part meta about K/S and why fans create (yes, really! She pulled it off beautifully), all fluffy feelings.

Styx and Stones (1987)

"Spock awakens in a new land after dying and waits for Jim, who is in a coma following a shuttle crash." [More on Fanlore]; originally published in Styx and Stones My 2 cents: I wish I knew what it was like to read this before On Wings of Ice. I'm not saying this was bad or boring - far from it! Hise used a lot of poetic creativity in her depictions - but my brain kept thinking back to On Wings of Ice and that does this story a disservice.

Someone to Watch Over Thee (1988)

"Spock, Kirk, and an ambassador are given aphrodisiacs by the leader of a hedonistic society and itʼs up to the security men to make sure they get who and what they need." [More on Fanlore]; originally published in Naked Times #18 CW: rape/noncon elements (your mileage my vary on this, however, I'm noting it out of an abundance of caution) My 2 cents: it's Aliens Made Them Do It but told from the perspective of a Redshirt.

The Gol Letters (1988)

"Apart, Kirk and Spock each write letters to each other, each believing that the other will never read them." [More on Fanlore]; originally published in Naked Times #18 My 2 cents: I personally felt like a pumpkin with its innards scooped out but then became a ball of fluff. Heed that as you will.

More about DVH:

She's both a pillar of the fandom for her prolific work as the publisher and editor for the Pon Farr Press (and its many zines) and for her many works of poetry and fanfic, be they short stories, novellas, or novels. In the professional realm, Hise is perhaps best known for the (in)famous Killing Time. (Really, read the link for (in)famous. DVH certainly got screwed over by that contract, although highlight the text here and she's banking on the reputation of it, lol. DVH, I can never hate you. And peep the other link too for a surprise ♡)

She passed away on March 3, 2021 and is survived by her partner Natasha Solten. (Her AO3 for anyone who wants that directly. The bulk of her Star Trek fics are locked to registered users-only.)

4t2 Rusty Elliette & Victoria Suits

I put these in the same post because they come from the same set, found here. As with most outfits I do these days, I only did a subset of the swatches, but I did use the same colors for both sets. However... I did do them for different age groups (sorry).

Rusty Elliette Suit: TF-EF, all appropriate morphs, 12 swatches. DOWNLOAD

Rusty Victoria Suit: AU-EU, elders use adult mesh, all appropriate morphs, 12 swatches. DOWNLOAD

genuine jumpscare seeing dick grayson in freak shit march 😭😭😭

tragically the dick grayson of it all was inevitable. it was a little touchy on whether he was going to end up as pregnancy or tickling there for a while, but i think this suits him better. a man that prone to starting relationships with his barely-not-step siblings is a mandatory participant in all freak shit events, if not the face of the revelries.

July 27th, 1969: The only time The Doors and Led Zeppelin performed at the same festival

Referred to as the forgotten Woodstock, the 1969 Seattle Pop Festival in Woodinville, WA, featured a performance from Zeppelin alongside artists such as The Doors, Chuck Berry, Vanilla Fudge, Guess Who, and others. Here’s one of the reviews:

“More than 50,000 rock fans gathered at Woodinville’s Gold Creek Park over the weekend for a practically non-stop three-day festival of music, events and exhibitions. The first annual Seattle Pop Festival was a marvel of crowd control and smooth organization.

Sunday night was supposed to belong to The Doors but it was stolen right out from under them by the great English blues group, Led Zeppelin.

Coming onstage about 11:30pm, immediately after the forced extravaganza of The Doors, the Zeppelin faced a jaded and uncomfortable audience that had been standing in the cold all evening. But the electricity of lead singer Robert Plant and guitarist Jimmy Page quickly warmed them up.

Plant has a voice that is controlled hysteria. Anguish pours from his every note; his voice is an epitome of the blues.

Page is an amazing guitarist. His runs and fingering are magnificent, his control of the instrument pure genius.

They were aided by a fine drummer, John Bonham and bassist John Paul Jones. Few who experienced it will forget Led Zeppelin's performance, especially their smashing encore of Communication Breakdown.” [P. Macdonald, SeattlePost-Intelligencer. July 1969]

+ a few other wonderful article snippets:

“[…] some of the performers learned that audiences will dig almost any loud noise, at times. […] Towards the last night, however, things started getting a little relaxed. It all started with kegs of beer provided backstage in the artists' waiting room. Jim Morrison did his thing drunk on his ass, and the tight, big sound expected from The Doors just didn't come off.” -Unknown

“In spite of fears for the fence in front of the stage, there was no trouble as the group performed their rock masterpieces When the Music’s over and The End” -Michael Quigley

Tickets were $6 (around $51 now)

Anyways, this whole festival is super special to me as it occurred super close to my home, it’s just incredible to be able to visit the area knowing some of my favorite artists walked that same grass 🥹🥹

Here are some photos!
