boost: Keeping Your Heart & Brain Busy on Dreamwidth

I check in with a handful of people on Twitter, but right now there's so much PANIC! happening that I just can't. That's why I'm eager to share people kindling communities right here:

tozka is featuring a sticky post stuffed with free cultural treasures

covidcoffeecorner is a brand-new chat community with daily hosts — volunteers welcome!

podcastjoy is

a community for sharing the joy of podcasts! We welcome fic, meta, art, episode/arc discussion posts, meta and pretty much every other imaginable transformative work as long as its about podcasts. Share and show your love for this odd little medium.

fansathome is

A place for people to share recommendations, fandoms, works, and ways to keep busy while at home! Please note that this community is not for coronavirus-specific media or discussion. Any comments related to the COVID-19 pandemic will be screened.

Who wants to share recs for fanfic or pairings or canons that are good for while anxious and stuck in the house?

sholio is hosting Happy Distracting Comment Fest
