Steve & Bucky Fic Lists Because I Am Horrifically Organized:

Always updating. Divided into categories based on eras of the story.

Whole Lives; fics that cover more than just one era

Pre-War; primarily focus on pre-war life, but might have some war content or stuff that takes place in the 40s.

WWII; primarily focus on the war itself

Post-War; covers Bucky's time with hydra, and Steve's time after defrosting. Also AUs that happen post-war.

The Winter Soldier; stuff directly related to TWS, including post-TWS "finding Bucky" stuff both canon compliant and in that magic "civil war never happened" universe.

Civil War; directly related to CW, including post-CW fugitive stuff

Wakanda & Infinity War; pre IW wakanda soft era, and post IW angst

Endgame; fixing steve's ending, and fics that wrote endings to IW before EG came out, that sorta stuff. also the alternate 2012-verse stuff.

No Powers AU; anything that is an AU with no avengers stuff.

Shrunkyclunks & Shrinkyclinks; Cap!Steve/Modern!Bucky & Modern!Steve/Soldier!Bucky.

5 + 1: all stuff with this prompt.

i DO recommend these fics, but this ISN’T actually a rec list

a while ago i did a meta about Bucky Barnes and the Winter Soldier and Hydra and the headcanons I put in The Terror of Knowing, and I mentioned that I wanted to compile a long-ass list of fics that inspired The Hundred Year Playlist and ppl (hi @conlatio and @marveluc) asked about it SO HERE, AT LONG FUCKING LAST, IT IS.

Fanfiction, like every other art form that has ever existed in the history of ever, is all about synthesis: combining pre-existing elements to make something new. It’s the making something new thing that’s exciting. (If you’re not making something new with your found material, that’s called plaigiarism and it’s distinctly uncool.)

When I was in college and grad school, if we used material from other scholars to make a new idea, we made sure to include a bibliography. 

Now this is fic, so like. Everyone knows that we’re using found material. We put the fandom in the tags and everything. But there’s a lot of unseen inspiration, because it’s harder to tag all the fics and metas you read that gave you ideas and inspiration along the way.

I’m… making an attempt.

These are some, SOME of the fics that inspired the headcanons and characterizations and whatnot that then got incorporated into THYP. I’ve been reading MCU fic since 2014 (possibly earlier) and I didn’t even start thinking about THYP until 2017, so there’s probably a lot of stuff that went into my subconscious that I’ve forgotten about. I’m @ing the authors and sources when I know them, but if any of yall want me to like, un-@you (is that a thing??) or if any of you know of authors who have tumblrs that I DIDN’T @ but should have, pls let me knoooowwww

A (Probably Incomplete, but at least Attempted) Fanfic Bibliography for The Hundred Year Playlist

by Seriously I Don’t Have More Important Things To Do? Astonishing.

when two musicians sing into the same microphone and lean in very close to each other… like omg are you guys gonna kiss now to relieve the homoerotic tension?😳

[theoriginalnikegirl]

genuinely insane to me that the vampire chronicles used to be universally known as the "no fanfiction unless you wanna die by lawsuit" fandom and now it's got a tv show where the central premise is the characters are all writing fanfiction about eachother and everyone's interrograting the text from the wrong perspective

K yall I’m making a Trump administration bingo card; any ideas?

USAmericans, while we still have a government that might listen to us, please call your senators and ask them to support this arms embargo against Israel: https://www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org/resource/tell-senators-no-more-weapons-to-israel/

Also, call your house reps and ask them NOT to support HR 9495 which would allow A Single Guy in the government to reclassify any non-profit group as a terrorist org without due process: https://www.aclu.org/press-releases/aclu-urges-house-to-kill-bill-that-could-give-trump-admin-power-to-crush-dissent-and-go-after-political-enemies

If it makes any of you feel better, Donald Trump will have an uphill battle to change the constitution. He will need:

-2/3 of Senators (67)

-2/3 of the House of Representatives (290)

-3/4 of the states (38)

In 2026, 33 senate seats will be up for grabs, and we’ll be able to vote for people who are against Trump and his ideals.

Breathe and remain hopeful because it’s not over. We can still fight and make Trump’s last four years hell.

There’s not too much point in talking about the election anymore, but I think some people are misconstruing the results. 21% of the American population voted for trump. He won the popular vote with polls only recording a 43.7% approval rating, and he has never held an approval rating over 50%, something that Biden and (arguably) Harris have. He lost millions of votes from 2020 to 2024, it’s just that Harris lost millions more.

All this is to say that there is not some ‘silent majority’ of trump supporters in America. While some people will definitely be emboldened in their rhetoric and action by the results of the election, Trump was a deeply unpopular president, and is shaping up to be one again. He will enact unpopular policies that are against the will of the average American, but that doesn’t mean every American is out to get you. Engage with your local community, check in on loved ones, and maybe even take a look at local political offices in the coming few years. If you dislike the two party system, volunteer or donate to a third party. It’s altogether likely we see another 2022 situation, resentment grows further against the Republican Party, and the midterms offer a lot of opportunity to alternatives, at every level of government.

It may all feel like the end, but it’s not. We’ve been through it before, and no matter what we do, hate and ignorance will bleed through the cracks in society again in the future. It’s going to get better, but that’s easier to say if we make it better.

The fact that you can’t raise taxes on billionaires even slightly without them pouring money into fascist political movements is, of itself, evidence that billionaires as a class shouldn’t be allowed to exist in the first place.

So when Anakin Skywalker was a Jedi he looked like this

But turning to the dark side changed his physical appearance. Most notably his eyes, which became yellow (a very typical Sith transformation in many species)

And while I know that Wookies are not supposed to be able to be force sensitive and therefore cannot become Jedi or Sith, all I am saying is that

.... You know?
