I'm very excited to share that the Gundam Wing Pride Discord server is now Gundam Wing: Endless Events! We're a multi-event server, so feel free to come hang out and talk about Gundam Wing, even if you're not planning on writing anything! You never know what conversation may spark creativity.

We're just a bunch of fans who got together to revive some old events and maybe create some new ones. Currently, we are hosting Operation Pride, Omegundam, Wingtober, and Cocktail Fridays, as well as unofficial discussions for Nanowrimo and Fandom Trumps Hate. Individual event announcements will be posted through the year.

This is a space meant to be friendly and inclusive, so please understand that no bigotry of any kind will be tolerated. As the server is 18+, please be aware that NSFW discussion may occur on many of the channels.

I hope everyone has fun and we can spread our love of Gundam Wing!

Speaking personally, I've only joined some Discord servers for the fandom this year. I'm very happy to connect with other fans and whip up more hype for the show that stole my heart 25 years ago!

Don’t forget to @ us! Frozen Pineapple Mojitos

Ingredients

4 cups fresh pineapple (about 1 pineapple) 1 cup white rum ¼ cup fresh lime juice ⅓ cup mint leaves, plus more for garnish 1 tablespoon (or more) sugar (optional) Cocktail umbrellas, sliced fruit, flowers, maraschino cherries, and/or any other tiki drink decoration (optional) 1 cup white rum ¼ cup fresh lime juice ⅓ cup mint leaves, plus more for garnish 1 tablespoon (or more) sugar (optional)

Cocktail umbrellas, sliced fruit, flowers, maraschino cherries, and/or any other tiki drink decoration (optional)

Step 1

Trim top of pineapple to remove leaves, but leave top in tact. Cut pineapple in half crosswise. Run a knife in a circle around inside of halves ½" away from the skin. Cut across core of pineapple twice, creating 4 pieces and loosening the fruit. Using a big spoon or ice cream scoop, scoop out inside of each pineapple half. Place pineapple "cups" in freezer.

Step 2

Discard core and finely chop pineapple (you should have about 4 cups). Place in a single layer on a parchment-lined sheet tray and freeze at least 1 hour.

Step 3

Blend frozen pineapple, rum, lime juice, ⅓ cup mint, and 2 cups ice in a blender until smooth. Taste and add sugar, if needed.

Step 4

Fill pineapple "cups" with mojito mixture, reserving extra for refills. Garnish with mint sprigs and tiki drink decoration, if using. Reserve remaining mojito mixture in freezer for second serving or serve in alternate glasses.

Do ahead: Pineapple "cups" can be hollowed out 3 days ahead; keep frozen. Pineapple chunks can be frozen up to 3 months ahead. Photo by Chelsea Kyle, Food Styling by Katherine Sacks

I assure you: somebody, somewhere, is on the exact same wavelength as you are.

[picimadar]

few things more humbling than the realization that you really do write the same fic(s) over and over again

[picimadar]

[picimadar]

Fanfiction writers be like:

"here's the immensely time consuming 100K word novel-length passion project I'm working on between my real life job and family! It eats up hundreds of hours of my one and only life, causes me emotional harm, and I gain basically nothing from it! Also I put it on the internet for free so anyone can read if they want. Hope you love it!" :)

Gundam Wing: Endless Waltz

HELL YEAHHHHH

@skippytoad I'm so, so normal about it too

[picimadar]

i made this version of that popular cake meme as a love letter to my favourite artists, writers, editors etc who keep making content about my favourite characters/ship

ermm

I LOVE YALL!!!!!!!!

[picimadar]

As a fic writer, i need every reader to know that:

I don’t care if your comment is coherent. I know what you mean and i love you

I don’t care if you ramble. I read every word and i love you

I don’t care if you leave a comment on a fic from four years ago or leave comments/kudos on like ten of my fics in one go. This isn’t IG, pls stalk my AO3. I love you

I don’t care if you mention the same thing in your comment that four other people have already mentioned. It’s actually really useful to know what resonated with people and I love everyone who takes the time to tell me they liked a particular turn of phrase

I don’t mind if your comment is super long or just a couple of sentences, i love them all

I love you
