It's Not Yet Breakfast Somewhere in the World

Three Four awesome things I've found over the last few days:

1. johnny wander -- A autobiographical webcomic with the occasional short story. Take a few strips to get going. Pretty entertaining. Makes me want to start drawing comics again, but then I remember how terrible I was at it and how much I fucking hated drawing after nineteen straight months of M-W-F updates.

2. The Incredible and Angsty Journey of Rose Weasley, Girl Slasher! -- I can only hope to one day write a crackfic this awesome.

3. Damascus by drakensis -- This is less a 'found' than a 'rediscovered in my bookmarks folder'. It's an AtLA fanfic centered on an "Avatar Toph", which I'm enjoying both because it's a really well done AU and because it's interesting to see how someone else pulls off the "another canon character becomes the Avatar" thing I'm doing for FFO. There aren't a lot of alt!Avatar AUs, but this one's awesome. FFO riffs pretty heavily in canon, though in weird ways, but Damascus forges its own path -- for example, with what happened to Iroh and Azulon in the backstory. The author, drakensis, also writes Toph in-character but without the "Memetic Badass" vibe that plagues and dehumanizes the characterization of Toph and Iroh in a lot of AtLA fanfic.

4. Blocking ads on FFnet -- Yessssss.
