[ Anon Meme ]

F!S Anon Meme (the Seventh, and now on DW!)


Secrets, rants, opinions, anything you want to say about your fandom or a fandom or fandom in general, do it here! Anonymously, of course. Get it all off your chest.

Some ground rules:
1. Going anon is encouraged but not absolutely required (for those who struggle with captchas and stuff).
2. No autoplaying/autolooping embeds, or embeds that cover/stretch the screen.
3. No dropping personal info or IRL contact info, etc.

That's about it, though!

I'll be linking some general/general-fandom threads I see so people don't repost new threads with the same stuff.

Unpopular Ships
Obligatory Masturbation Thread
Fandoms you wish existed
How old are you?
What series have you always meant to watch/read/play/etc. but have never?
Time and location
Female-centric works
How do you feel about Tumblr?
Pet thread
Guilty pleasure thread
Favorite old shows
First fandom?

I second the recommendation to check out petfinder.com It's a great way to browse available animals and acquaint yourself with any shelters and rescue groups in your area.

Shelters in general will have lower adoption fees and looser adoption requirements. It's a more direct saving of a life, but they may not be able to tell you much about the animal's personality due to high turnover/the short amount of time they keep the animals and it may not come fully vetted (or with any vetting at all in some places).

Rescue groups that operate off of a foster home system will generally be able to tell you way more about which animal's are going to have personalities matching your home life/any other requirements (some cats can be pretty dog-like), will have a higher adoption fee but generally come fully vetted, but the application process tends to be more rigorous and intense, i.e. you'll be interrogated and references checked.
