Since we seem to be getting another wave of new folks, I thought it might be a good time for a new "Hi, glad to see you!" post.
Welcome to Dreamwidth, pull up a chair, what's your pleasure? *passes around the
cookies comms*
So, anime and manga fans may like to check out
anime_manga, which is a lovely community for all things having to do with any anime or manga series. Fic, art, reviews, meta, anything can go there. I started out thinking the individual series-comms would be where the action is at, but those seem to be pretty slow over here. There's a lot more action on individual journals, and
anime_manga is just about the only place I've seen that action come together. I like it a lot, and I hadn't expected to enjoy a general comm so much!
Another lively comm is
fucking_meds. Have you ever been given medication and found it doing something weird? Had to deal with side effects of mixing meds? Just wanted to write a love or hate letter to your antibiotics? This is the place to do it. Great moral support and often funny.
For a little sparkle for your journal, in manageable lots, you might check out
smallbatchicons.
If you like prompts for your journal entries, you may like
thefridayfive, which posts five questions on a given theme each Friday.
And if you want femslash, I can tell you that
girlgay is a wonderfully active but not overwhelming comm.
Of course, if you want to keep following someone from elsewhere who posts unlocked, there are always feeds. I personally get a lot of entertainment out of
ursulav_feed.
