Zero Comment Challenge: Nov-Dec
Resurrecting my Zero Comment Challenge – to find fics out on Archive of Our Own that have no comments, but deserve a little love. I’m aiming for a couple of searches a week, but life may have other ideas.
If you want to join me - go over to Ao3′s Search Works page - plug in your preferred fandom, character(s), rating and/or pairing, then scroll down to the Work Stats section of the page and type a “0″ in the Comments field - easy peasy!
Once you find a fic that sounds interesting, read it and COMMENT. I know, I know, that’s the hard part! But honestly, even a quick “this was fun!” or “I like your take on <CHARACTER>” or “Great interaction between X and Y” can be enough to make someone’s day.
I’m going to reblog this each time I find a fic that fits the bill - like this one:
Consider it Charity by Redemption_Arc. A young Clint Barton is caught at a crossroads in his life, with assistance coming from an unlikely source.
I think there’s maybe supposed to be more coming, but it’s currently listed as a single chapter? (I’ve made that mistake myself)This is an astoundingly awesome idea and I’m mad I didn’t come up with it. :D I think more people should take up the challenge especially if you’re finding that your regular reading has stagnated lately or if you want to train yourself to comment more.
AO3′s search function is pretty powerful so you can also do cool stuff like sorting by hits, meaning you could get a story with a ton of hits and no comments, which I know is especially dispiriting to some people, or sort by date-ascending so you get the oldest stories with no comments, which is what I did.
This led me to locate a JARVIS/Ziggy (MCU/Quantum Leap) crossover and what a fantastic ship.
Fandom, can we signal boost this and turn it into a Thing? Like Yuletide? It’s beautiful 😭
Gonna do it!
Gonna do this too.
What a great idea!

Armitage Hux and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day
It’s scary – Bell, Cineplex, Shaw, and Rogers are trying to censor the internet and force the end of net neutrality in Canada. And worse, they’re trying to do it behind closed doors.
These 4 companies, led by Bell, are pushing to create an internet “blacklist” of certain websites that all internet service providers in Canada would legally have to block. They know this outrageous proposal would never pass, so first, they tried to sneak it into NAFTA negotiations – and now Bell is expected to introduce its proposal to Canada’s telecom regulator TOMORROW.
Critics are calling this move “unprecedented” and dangerous. If these companies get their way, this internet blacklist would have absolutely zero oversight in the courts. We need to stop this urgently.

I liked him because he allowed me to explore the notion of authority — he’s someone who enjoys authority and holds onto it at all costs. We talked about the idea that he’s obsessive and probably doesn’t sleep much. So he was pale with dark eyes. We wanted him to look like somebody who was dead set on one thing. — Domhnall on General Hux

At the end of the day of shooting, who’s the first one to suggest going out for a drink, or hanging out, Netflix and chilling?
