#Fandom Trumps Hate

[khorazir]

Yes, exactly. I posted this on Twitter as well: everybody who feels particularly vulnerable right now (and for good reason – it’s not just you in the US, we’re over here in Europe and the rest of the world are feeling your pain, because the election hurts us, too). Do not give up! It’s what they want.

Turn your despair into anger, and your anger into productivity. Help others who need it. Be kind and compassionate to those hurting (including yourself). Do not give up! Do not harm yourself!

Live! Live to spite the fascists and their enablers. Be the constant Lego brick under the foot of oppression, the constant itch they can’t scratch, the constant thorn in their side. If you have to be compliant to survive, be so maliciously. But you must survive. You must live. You are needed.

We're Still Here.

Eight years ago, when the results of the 2016 election became clear, a group of us pulled together what we thought would be a mid-sized fanworks auction as a way to throw some financial support to progressive organizations in need.

Since then, that circle has widened more than anyone could ever have anticipated. Our ever-growing community has done amazing things together, showing up for one another and for organizations on the ground all over the country doing vital, challenging work for vulnerable people.

We’ll still be here next year, but there’s another larger point to be made:

In this terrible time, it is still possible to build things together.

In fact, it is more urgent than ever that we build things together in order to bring the world a little closer to the world we want to live in.

There are people in your community online who need you. There are people in your neighborhood who need you, even if you haven’t met them yet — and if you haven’t, now is the time. We can and will survive, and help one another survive, by showing up for one another.

Take some time to mourn; we will be, too. And then let’s organize.

Unremarkable

It's an unremarkable day. John has a date. Sherlock has a case. And both Mycroft and Rosie have just been shoved into the boot of a car.

Stony 1872 AU or maybe just a random cowboy AU? I drew this for @puzzlebean for the @fandomtrumpshate charity auction, finished it, and then forgot that I could also put it here on social media. This was drawn with reference. Always fun to draw nice AUs! Thank you @puzzlebean!!

Announcing: the FTH Playbook!

Ever since our first year, FTH has actively encouraged people to run their own auctions, freely sharing our organizational materials as well as a brief guide to using them.

This year, we decided to get (very) serious about overhauling those materials. We've made a lot of back-end improvements over the years, and we wanted to share them with others who might be considering organizing their own events. Even more so, we wanted to offer the very best guidelines and explanations we could, based on our (at this point) several years' experience.

It's taken several months and a lot of effort, but we're proud to unveil it now: our step-by-step guide to organizing and and running your own benefit fanworks auction.

In this folder, you will find:

an auction narrative (a step-by-step overview of all of the stages in running an auction, broken down into individual tasks and with recommended timelines)

templates of every form and spreadsheet we use to run the auction, which you can copy and adjust to your needs

individual step-by-step guides for using each of those forms and spreadsheets

In addition to the link in this post, you can also find a link to the playbook on our tumblr page.

The world is overflowing with urgent causes that could desperately benefit from some financial support. If you've been sitting at home wishing you could do more, here is your chance. Here is the sign that you can do it.

Also, please reblog to spread this far and wide! We want to be sure this playbook reaches every single person who might find it helpful.

Here is my first of 2 gif sets for Fandom Trumps Hate 2024.

@helloliriels asked for a gif set for her fic What If I'm Not , co-written with @fluffbyday-smutbynight .

Bonus:

Made a bonus gif, because I felt like only 2 gifs wasn't enough. 😅

The Disappointed Optimist's Guide to Sharing a Flat with a Madman

Chapter One: Look on the Bright Side

Chapter Two: Get Out of Your Comfort Zone

This is my Fandom Trumps Hate story for @lhrinchelsea, who was generous enough to bid on me 💕💕💕

Summary: Despairing over his horrible living situation, John Watson has a small bit of luck when he meets Victor Trevor, who is trying to get out of his lease. Taking over the lease will mean moving in with Sherlock Holmes, but compared with his current horrible flatmates-

Seriously, how bad can it be? A couple of brats who mess up the flat, make fun of him, and eat his food. Or a bloke who doesn’t talk and sometimes plays the violin.

He can stick it out for two months...

Atuat using bloodbending to help Hei-ran breathe after her poisoning in Agna Qel'a

And lineart :)

Finished my gift for @fandomtrumpshate! It comes in two flavors because I liked them both.

Thank you to the wonderful person who not only donated to a good cause but also asked me to draw Anders, my most favorite husband.
