synecdochic's monthly stitch'n'bitch:
1. The Enoch Pratt Free Library is almost exactly halfway betweenlindentreeisle's place and synecdochic's place, and they do things like have everything-you-can-carry-for-$1 used book sales.
2. It's a room full of fangirls, and I do things like volunteer to write JD Nielson crossover fic, and then I'm expected to follow through on it.*
Also, here is a trick that LJ (and DW and JF do) that I have been using a *lot* since I learned about it - and I didn't learn about it since I started visiting DW headquarters: if you append &view=flat to the end of an entry URL, it turns off comment threading, so that every comment is top-level and the most recent comment is always at the end. I usually love threaded comments, but it comes in *really handy* for things like anon memes and fic battles and community modding, when you want to see the most recent posts regardless of topic without having to monitor everything or check every thread. And especially on DW, it's really easy to get to the original threads from the flat version.
*yes, I do still owe someone the story where they discover that Donna Noble matches Deety and Libby Long. I'll get to it! Swear!
