My Top 5 were Weapons, Deadpool and Wolverine, Late Night With The Devil, Alien Romulus, and Wakr Up Dead Man's.

Worst: War of the Worlds (2025), The Humanity Bureau, Alien vs Predator 2, Ghost Rider Spriit of Vengeance, and Alien vs Predator.

Glad someone else watched the train wreck that was War of the Worlds! 🤝

Hahaha I love that you hated Alien vs Predator but committed to watching Alien vs Predator 2 just because you were watching every Alien movie

I don’t think I’ve seen five movies in 2025. I loved Weapons, though. Deserving of every bit of the hype!

I was determined to rate all the Predators by how hot they were. 😭

Weapons is sooooo good.

I know for a fact I didn't watch 10 new movies this year.

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
I want to see Late Night With the Devil even though I kept reading mixed reviews.

Re: What were the top 5 best and worst new movies you watched (to you) this year?

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 02:45 am (UTC)(link)
Best: The Blackening, The Final Girls, Cocaine Bear, Anna and the Apocalypse, and Tea with the Dames
Worst: Bodies, Bodies, Bodies; Slaughterhouse Rulez, Romantic Comedy (2019), Werewolves Within, Christmas with the Campbells

I didn't watch as many new (to me) movies as last year, but I could have easily given a top ten worst for last year.

Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 12:15 am (UTC)(link)
If you saw a fanfic on AO3 where the author note consists of the author whining about how no one likes them and that drama follows them wherever they go, would you skip anything they write or would you just ignore it and read the story anyway?

(I would love to post the example I saw recently, but the author might post here so I won't. All I can say is that it's insane)

Re: Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 12:20 am (UTC)(link)
It depends a LOT on the fic. If it's for a fandom/pairing that gets very little content, or a really niche AU or kink that I've been looking for, then I can skip over an author's note and I doubt I'd remember a whiny author's note enough to like... remember who wrote it in a larger fandom. But if it's something where like... I can read a thousand other fics, then I might just nope out and do so.

Re: Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 12:25 am (UTC)(link)
I would only read it so I could laugh at the inevitable bad writing the fic would contain.

Re: Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
So, I'm not going to say that it would for sure keep me from reading what they wrote, but it would make me much more inclined to skip it. That's a huge turn off and very off putting. If they wrote something I was really interested in, I would probably go ahead and give it a try, but I would have much less patience with it, and I would be a lot more likely to get annoyed and stop reading it.

You kids never would've survived early 2000s writing where authors interacted with characters on both sides of the fic.

I always find that such a turnoff . I prefer to use my authors notes to babble about creative choices, update people on small things that might effect my posting schedule (there is no schedule only ADHD) and occasionally apologize for going quiet for a year.

Re: Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
I’d skip it. I have enough drama in my life with kids, an elderly parent, health problems, budget difficulties, and life in general. I don’t need somebody else’s drama in my life. Especially since it sounds like it’s a them problem and they don’t recognize that.

Re: Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Depends? I skip authors notes already anyway, so there's a good chance I never read the note. But if it was so long and whiny that I couldn't help but notice I'd def be bracing for badfic

Re: Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
I would ignore it if I was otherwise interested in the fic, but it would make me think less of the author as a person.

Re: Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
I had a fandom friend who would make notes like this. And also drama did follow them everywhere. I learned why later on my own. It's an ex fandom friend for a reason.
But she is a really good writer. One of the best fandom writers I've met.

So yeah, I would give it a chance

If the tags are interesting or I'm already invested in the story then I'd probably read it anyways.

Re: Whiny Author Notes

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 08:14 am (UTC)(link)
If it's on AO3, the drama is not interfering with the fic itself or comments section, the fic is really good, and/or the ship/trope/fandom is rare to the point there aren't a lot of fics...I can read the fic without thinking much about the author's notes.

If I can relatively scroll past and ignore the author's whiny notes, it wouldn't interfere with my desires to keep reading.

On AO3, I can't recall having a situation where I back buttoned/DNF a fic because their author's notes and ramblings about fandom drama annoyed me.

There are exceptions where the fandom drama seems spicy so I check it out as a detour before/after finishing reading the fic. In those situations, I don't mind at all!

Organizing and Decorating Excitement

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 02:16 am (UTC)(link)
I just ordered wall shelves for my kitchen and I’m absolutely thrumming with excitement! I will finally have a place for everything in my kitchen and the one weird wall will finally have something on it that doesn’t look out of place. I ordered from a local woodworker who did some great work for my neighbor.

My last big excitement was a little wooden cup that holds my scissors, box cutter, a pen, and a Sharpie on the hall table where I open mail and packages. The time before that, I found a decorative wine box at a thrift store that now stores the binding combs for my binding machine.

It’s taken me years of living here to find a place for everything I use and I am just so super happy and excited!

Does anyone else get like this or am I just weird?

Re: Organizing and Decorating Excitement

(Anonymous) 2025-12-31 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Yes, I totally do!

Currently looking for a container for my hiking sticks and umbrella for by the door, and I'm super stoked to find a good one.

Re: Organizing and Decorating Excitement

I've seen memes about getting older and being super excited about organizational tools/storage containers, so you're definitely not alone. I bought some drawer organizers recently and was a little too excited about finally having a place to sort all my batteries.
