#fandom archive

I Finally finished archiving my Pedro Pascal magazine collection!

Here some magazines I have in pdf on my blog for download [x] I have some digital scans ready on my Tumblr. If there’s a specific shoot or article you’ve been looking for, let me know! The problem is, I can't find a few magazines probably because they're too old, no longer available, or don't have digital issues. I’ve had to use all my design skills to recreate some of them! Since I’ve been archiving these lately, I know there are still some rare gems out there that I'm missing. If you have any old or hard-to-find editions and want to help me expand the collection for the fandom, please get in touch! Let’s keep the archive growing for everyone. DM me or reblog!

Here is the Invader Zim archive I promised. So far I've added the entirety of Season 1, Season 2, the pilot episode and Enter the Florpus. However, I will be adding every other piece of media I possibly can.

Note: Originally I had complained here about my inability to add all of the comics but I finally have found them. So, I will be adding them but again *very* slowly as there are so many pages to archive. Not only that but I'm renaming all of the page files because I just like being organized.

Now go crazy, watch the show and have fun!!! If any files are for whatever reason missing, please send me an ask and tell me what's missing. You can also send me an ask if there's any files you'd like to be added, possibly send me a link to them if at all possible!

I also ask that you please check the read me file. Them you very much!!! 🫶

Sometimes the files are just gone forever, and all I can find is a LiveJournal post with a 17-year-old photobucket link that is long, long dead. So I make a note of the magazine in question and, if I ever find a copy, I might try to grab it and scan it in myself.

It's a fun, satisfying process for this little archiver!

Here's a magazine I was able to scan, shared here but with missing image files and now restored to the internet once again :) I've also had a poke through my terrifying "to sort later" folder and uploaded several other new articles - all to the Royal Library of Camelot.

Why do it? I dunno, I just really like scavenger hunts I guess? Have fun, Merlin fandom :D

Alright, I've made a decision.

For a while now — several months or so — I've been collecting really old posts of Johnlock and Sherlock content from the early 2010's, back when the show was still running and at it's peak. It's been great fun, but I've noticed that so many of the blogs are deleted or have been inactive for years. I was only able to find the beautiful old fan art, fan edits, first few metas/fan theories, and Setlock gifs or pictures from the time via crawling through long reblog chains. They were sadly quite hard to find, but very much worth it as I feel they are an important part of our fandom's history. I don't want them to be lost to time in the ever expanding Tumblrverse, and I fear that may genuinely happen because half of this old content is very poorly tagged! Making it even harder to find!

So I've decided to become a bit of an archive of sorts. From now on I'll be rebloging these seemingly forgotten fan creations with proper tags to bring them back to light, and hopefully thus less likely to disappear or become unheard of for newer fans. I'll try not to spam post too much, but I hope all my fellow Sherlockians will enjoy the time capsule.

The game is on!

Edit: Warning! Some of the things I reblog will be NSFW. View at your own discretion, and always listen to the tags. I also highly reccomened checking out @archiveofoursherlockart who is aiming to do the same thing :))

Went to a birthday this weekend and my Pirelli tire phone charm outed me immediately. Girl across the kitchen clocked it and went, “Oh my god, you love F1? Charles Leclerc is my fave.” We dove straight into The Ferrari Of It All, I confessed my eternal fondness for Max, and then I said, casually, “and Daniel—”

She blinked. “Who’s Daniel?”

Guys, time stopped. Shoeys? The Monza dive? His eternal smile? Nothing. She’s new to the sport, didn’t watch DTS, no back-catalog...just fresh, present-tense fandom. Which is fine! Also devastating! I turned into a party docent and opened a traveling museum on my phone: highlights, interviews, Maxiel lore like a tiny, chaotic syllabus without outing me as an rpf enjoyer. She was lovely and curious, but also didn't care that much. It just hit me that memory in fandom isn’t automatic...it’s a relay. If no one passes the baton, it drops.

So here’s my small archival plea: keep Daniel in circulation. Reblog him. Rec the Maxiel fics. Write new ones. Make little primers for newer fans who arrived post–singapore last year. Canon moves on and fandom is the record.

We really do live in a timeline where Daniel can be an afterthought. Let’s not let him be.

Something is boiling underneath the internet. YouTube is crashing down. Google is degenerating by Ai. EU passing Id verification. Sites and Games are banned by large corporations.

Download your favorite Artist. Download your favorite Nightcore. Download your favorite Fan-Fic. Download What You Can. Keep information tight. Have backups of every media you can - art, memes, music, writing, games.

From how things like that often goes. Big wave of forced changes - Accompany with Destruction. The thought of any Lost Media, scares me, and I sense big part of the Internet becoming one in the near future.

The Internet has a large history, and on my own eyes, I've seen large part of it, already Vanish.
