Because November is hard for lots of us, and in particular is something I find hard (my not-quite-month of mourning begins tomorrow, officially); because it's spring in the southern hemisphere and the days just keep getting shorter in the northern; because I talked to my counsellor yesterday about all of the shapes and forms that value takes.

Autumn crocuses growing through a carpet of sweet chestnut husks.

This post will close to new nominations at the end of the month (because November), though I'll keep unscreening comments after that point if any new ones do come in.

Love meme

♥ Nominate yourself or someone else, anonymously or logged-in, by putting your/their username in the subject line of a comment to this entry. If you do not know for certain the person's preferred pronouns and they do not list them on their DW profile, please use gender neutral pronouns as a default. Other people can then reply to that comment with goopy declarations of love, reasons that person is awesome, sparkly expressions of admiration, etc! All comments are screened, and I'll unscreen them as they arrive. (So, if your comment doesn't appear right away, please be patient; I'll leave my online status at the bottom of this post to keep people updated on whether I'm unscreening or not.)

♥ If you don't want to be nominated, or don't want comments referring to certain things [body/appearance, wrong pronouns, etc] to appear on your thread, please let me know; I won't unscreen any such comment or nomination. If I make a mistake in unscreening something, if you want a comment to your thread unscreened or deleted, if you have any concerns you need to raise -- please just tell me, and I'll attend to it as soon as I can. If there are any inappropriate comments made to a thread, I will check with the person being referred to before unscreening.

♥ Share the love: please do send people over here (and to your own thread!) Words-and-deeds it up if you like, but that's not obligatory!

♥ These guidelines are modeled on

dingsi's love meme guidelines, with modifications by

jjhunter and wording lifted from

surpassingly.

♥ That's it -- happy posting!

This is almost perfectly timed for me; thank you for doing it. :)

From:

redbird

(pronouns are she/her)

From:

alexseanchai

(ze/zir)

From:

k_a_webb

Pronouns she and her.

I really do need this right now, so thank you.

From: (Anonymous)

They could use some love right now.

From:

silveradept

If I do it this way, I get to see the comments, which is much better. Even if it fits mean having to deal with weasels that suggest fast self-nomination is only because there's nobody else who would do it for me. It's complex, at times, my relationship with praise.

My preferred pronouns are they/them, please.

Me, I think. Because, well, November.

SO let us see, what am I pleased with at the moment -- that I make imperfect work (code, poetry, poking-around-the-insides-of-my-brain) and I talk about it publically; and (qualifiers be damned, I will say this without them because I know it to be true) in so doing I make space for other people to be imperfect, too.

kaberett

rysmiel - they've had a notably stressful few months, and they'd benefit from being told why they're awesome.

(reposted self-nom to have name in title!)

From:

kaberett

Nominated by

rysmiel; reposted for name in thread subject. :-)

From:

boxofdelights

could use some reassurance.

From:

mirrorshard

He or they is good.

From:

merrythebard

Nominating myself.

Gender neutral pronouns please, preferably they.

(And, thank you for creating this. Lovely idea. :-) )

From:

inoru_no_hoshi

(pronouns are whatever you decide to use)

Self-nominating to track comments, forestall brainweasels over not gaining a thread, and thence to ignore the ones about "hdu nominate yourself hdu". >_>

From:

mathemagicalschema

I bet they could use some love.

From:

surpassingly

Yes please, if you like. Always needed, especially now: turbulence is turbulence, though the sky be made of joy.

She/hers please.

From:

jjhunter

like my paperwhites
seeking sun please, and water
I'm want with growing

remind me what lasts, of me,
that I might prune without loss

From:

haggis

Um, hello. Is it OK to nominate myself even though I don't know you, Kaberett? Although I should really rectify that!

From:

rootsofthestories

Sure, let's do this thing.

Pronouns are they/them/their

(pronouns are fluid and situational.)

From:

itsamellama

It has been very difficult; I would appreciate anything at all. Thank you. ♥

They/their/them, please. If we have known each other for a long time, she/her/her is acceptable.
