For what it's worth, given that we're talking about September 2023 - I'll gladly join you in a stacked rewatch for The 100. I've tried to rewatch in order and it's just impossible for me now, but I think the air date method is a really novel way to mix it up. Count me in! (In ten months, lol.)
I often find myself missing the ~energy of this fandom (read: exclusively that of my mutuals in my little dash <3), so if any of you joined me I'd love it! I do want to rewatch the show eventually, but like you, thinking of a regular rewatch... eh. But this way is a lot of fun and can lead to really interesting findings IMO.
(in particular, I think a rewatch of this show, knowing all I know in hindsight, it's going to make Clarke a more enjoyable protagonist for me LMAO)
The (tentative) idea would be start in October 22nd 2023 (in part so I have time after finishing stackediaries lol), with the second season's premiere. That way, we'd finish on September 30th (2024) with the proper series finale. I'm c&p how the schedule would look under the cut:

who the fuck wants to die alone? by sam_writes_fics | Rated T | Josh Lyman/Donna Moss | Complete | “I don’t know, Josh,” she says quietly as she moves to get the door. She pauses just before turning the handle, staring at the ground instead of him. “I just hope that one day I’ll actually do them.”
“Yeah,” he says just before she leaves, and then quietly “me too.”
// Post-Ep 2x20: Donna realizes the sky isn’t actually falling
I Know by TooManyThoughts06 | Rated G | Josh Lyman/Donna Moss | Complete | A continuation of 2x20 "The Fall's Gonna Kill You". Josh asked Donna if she was ok after learning about Bartlet's MS, but was Josh ok? Josh pays a visit to Donna's apartment later that night.
Dark by WaterSoter | Rated G | Sam Seaborn - No Pairings Listed/Gen Fic | Complete | Trust, like faith, once lost was nearly impossible to get back. Post the Fall’s Gonna Kill You S02E20 AU.
Fish and Frigates by Punk | Rated G | C.J. Cregg - No Pairings Listed/Gen Fic | Complete | Coffee, God, Country.
Palpable by Kasey [archived by westwingfanfictioncentral_archivist] | Rated T | Josh Lyman/Sam Seaborn | Complete | He needed to know that he was real, and that Josh was real; that neither would vanish in a poof of smoke and mirrors, the way their "real thing" candidate had.

ooo how about top 5 songs on your 'on repeat' playlist & top 5 hockey games you've watched? -💙
Hey ya @igarbagecannoteven Megs 💙
Top 5 ‘On Repeat’
So I’m not sure if u mean my favorite 5 songs on the playlist or the 5 most listened to, but this is the latter
(Aka your girl’s been going through it lol)
Top 5 Hockey Games I’ve watched
fair warning: I don’t have a stats brain and this will be isles heavy bc I only really started watching non-isles games this year lol
1. Islanders v. Penguins, Feb 17 23*
so technically I didn’t watch this game. My family and I were driving upstate and listening to it on the radio but it was insane. Isles comeback in the third and pretty much a full on bench brawl. It was incredibly hard to follow with the just the radio bc so many people got into that fight. My dad and I ended up rewatching the third period once we got where we going just to see it and the win.
2. Islanders v. Lightning, Game 4 Eastern Conference Finals, June 19
21
Scraping game and a lead maintained in the last 15 seconds by the above save. My dad and I were screaming our heads off.
3. Islanders vs. Sabers, November 23, 2005
I was six at this game and it was the first game I went to after the lockout (players strike) that took up most of the previous “season.” My cousins and I made a big DiPietro sign but spelled his name wrong. It went to OT and we lost in a shootout but I remember it very fondly and I think my grandma still has the signs we made 😂.
4. Islanders vs Hurricanes, Stanley Cup Playoffs Round 1, April 21, 2023
Four minutes left in the third, score tied one and the Islanders don’t just come back, they come back roaring. Fastest four goals in playoff history. Two minutes and twenty seconds to win 5-1. Nuts
5. USA v. USSR, Olympic Medal Round 1, February 22 1980
This is only game on this list that a) I didn’t watch live and b) is not an NHL game, however, as an American hockey lover no list of top hockey games can be complete without the Miracle on Ice when the American team of college players beat the 4 time defending gold medal Soviet team during the height of the Cold War and two days (and one game against the Finns) later the American team took Gold.
Ask me for my top 5s

Current watchlist (April 16th, 2023)
I haven't been on Tumblr much bc work has been crazy so this list needed updating
Currently watching : Shadow and Bones season 2 (ep 3), Bed Friend (ep 6, Tumblr did wear me down), HIStory 3: Trapped (ep 6, it started off so well but I'm not so convinced now), Tomorrow (ep 3, need to find time to see the friend I'm watching it with), My School President (ep 8, it's cute but I don't see what the fuss is about, a bit too teenager-y for me perhaps), GAP The Series (ep 7, I guess I'm kinda stuck for some reason)
Rewatching : The Untamed (ep 21, kinda took a break from it with my roommate but we need to get back to watching) , Not Me (ep 9, my gf just found out Todd is indeed a "snake boi" and she's very happy haha), IZombie season 2 (comfort show)
Just finished : Who Rules the World (pretty good but the ending ruined it a bit by being so rushed), The End of the World with You (it was so weird I loved it), Dark season 3 (it was good but made my brain hurt, if you wanted to make a PSA against incest you didn't have to make it so complicated)
Movies recently watched : Captain Volkonogov escaped (4****), Empire of Light (4****), All the Beauty and the Bloodshed (3***) - they were all very aesthetic in their own way (+Saitankyori wa Maladie Kudokute 1*, kinda want to forget it)
On pause : RuPaul's Drag Race season 15 (ep 7), Unforgotten night (ngl I only watched it because I was horny and I gave up after a couple episodes, don't think I will start again), The office season 7 (I just watched 6 seasons in two months and I think I need a break)
To watch : Leverage (gf has gotten me hyped so we need to get to it now !), Till the End of the Moon (I'm resisting the Tumblr gifsets but for how long), Triage (just looks like a solid BL) , Je verrai toujours vos visages (French social drama about restorative justice), About Kim Sohee (Korean social drama), Burning Days (Turkish thriller/social drama, yes I have a movie type), Die Wannseekonferenz (German historical drama about the 1942 conference to settle the "Jew question"), Beau is Afraid (American drama-comedy about a man with a concussion apparently?)

Doctor Who: Arc of Infinity
I rewatched this serial on 21 April 2023. The story marks the first serial of the twentieth anniversary season, and was the first time Doctor Who celebrated such a milestone purposefully. I recall the excitement of looking forward to returning monsters and friends throughout this season. As for this tale, the best bits are those in Amsterdam, one of my favourite cities and one where I have family connections.
We begin in a dark place that is quickly revealed to be Gallifrey, which continues to look like that we first saw during The Deadly Assassin and then The Invasion of Time. Once again, dark times are afoot with traitors and plots. In the TARDIS, the Doctor and Nyssa are making repairs… until they come under threat from some astro-bobbins. They go to Gallifrey where the plotting becomes complicated until the monster is revealed.
Meanwhile in Amsterdam, two young backpackers — a Brit and an Aussie — look to find a place to doss down for the night. The Brit, Robin Stuart, is concerned about the Dutch police deporting him because he’s lost his passport… a plot line that’s once more credible with Brexit. The Aussie, Colin Frazer, becomes embroiled in the overarching plot and disappears… and then his cousin arrives, dressed as though it’s a summer holiday she’s heading to… Yes, it’s Tegan!
It is amusing that Colin Baker plays the guard commander who really wants to kill the Doctor. It’s also neat that it’s Omega who returns in this story, since he appeared in what’s often referred to as the tenth anniversary special, The Three Doctors.
