This week's theme is… Donnie Takeover! Any year, any iteration, it's Donnie Time!
The Magma will begin on Saturday, 5/9/2026 at 5 PM EST. It will remain open until Monday, 5/11/2026 at 10 PM EST. The boards will be up-scaled for export quality and exported at that time, then posted the following Tuesday. As always, I highly recommend exporting your boards AFTER the final export, as the DPI will be increased which will greatly impact the quality of the file you are able to export.
AO3 is back AND it's Friday, so let's celebrate by gathering up some drarry fic recs that fit the chosen theme:
HILARIOUS BANTER 🎉
The ask box is open and ready for your rec submissions that fit this theme!
This is all pretty loosey-goosey (am I figuring this out as I go? MAYBE) but there are just a few guidelines to help keep things organized:
✅ Include a direct link to the work (fic, art, etc.). All necessary information will be gathered from the provided link.
✅ It's encouraged (but optional) to include a brief sentence or two about why you love it/are recommending it. It's also optional, but helpful, to list a few other major tropes/tags that fit the work (other than the current theme).
✅ Anon submissions are welcome! Recs submitted under your username will be attributed to you.
✅ For the time being, please only submit one rec per cycle (this may change, depending on how many are submitted).
❌ No AI generated works or self-recs, please.
There isn't a hard deadline to submit for this very first round of recs, as it's unknown how may recs will be submitted overall and how long people will need. Playing it by ear this first go round.
theme #27 is "anniversary” and will be held on 10/11 (saturday) at 6:00 PM EST, ending at 7:00 PM EST! 💙if it's your first time participating, remember to read the rules before submitting!
this is because 60min is basically a whole year old now... the first one was 10/12/24
In honor of tumblr’s Speak Your Language Day (@spyld), I’ll be posting polls in languages other than English today! Here’s some caveats, and see below the read more for additional notes on translations and cities.
Some caveats:
Order of the options is the same as always, so you shouldn’t need translation tools.
The reading direction, formatting, and capitalization on some of these might be kind of funky. In some cases, very funky.
I’ve generally kept the format “city, state, country” although that is not typical in all languages.
I had to fill in some blanks to add the actual cities, and I also did a lot of copying and pasting. I’m sure I’ve made tons of mistakes, especially in languages with more complex conjugation and in those that use a different alphabet/writing system.
If you notice mistakes I’ve made, please feel free to leave a comment and I will add a note to the text of the post, since I can’t change the poll itself. But, to translate is to interpret and so if you simply disagree with a translator’s word choices please be respectful in how you voice your opinion. The people who helped make this day possible offered a service and their work is very appreciated!
Finally, you are always welcome to engage with my posts in your language of choice, but that goes double today! Comments, reblogs, and asks in any language are welcome.
How were languages chosen?
I opened a Google form about a month ago, and closed it after 25 languages. While I’m pleased with the variety, please understand that the families represented will be skewed by the blog’s demographics.
How were polls translated?
Polls were generously translated by followers using the form. In the case of multiple submissions, I prioritized native or fluent speakers, then typically chose the translation that was either the first one submitted or that had the most helpful notes. As mentioned in the caveats above, I then had to add in the cities.
How were cities chosen?
I wanted the city to be one where the submitted language is commonly used.
Translators had the opportunity to choose a city they wanted their translation to be used for; in the case of multiple suggestions I chose the first one submitted. If no eligible cities were suggested, I chose a city from the general submissions list. If that also didn’t have any eligible cities, I just picked a populous city in the country/region.
And the winner for this year's Hallows Ball theme is....
🥀🌵🌹DEADLY FLORA🌹🌵🥀
As a quick reminder, any Hallows ball participants must draw/write their character/characters wearing costumes based on the creepy, the crawly, the unusual, or the deadliest species of plants you can find on our beautiful planet! You can choose any plant as long as it's strange, or something you don't usually think of when it comes to plants. Get creative with your designs, go wild with the colors, let's make this year's Ball a BLAST!!! 😆✨✨✨
All details on how to participate in this year's Ball or any future parties will be found in the post I've pinned to the top of my blog, if you'd like to participate, please read through the post so you can join in on the fun. Thank you all SO MUCH for your votes my stars, I cannot wait to see all of your wonderful creations at the party, it will be an absolute honor to have you all there! 😄
What fell beast with feet made of xylophone bells, hath crept, hath snuck silent between your worlds walls leaving not a trace - The face pressed into coins of an ancient world you've invented and forgotten all in a blink. The friend you thought you knew once before, on your neighbors back porch. The animal that carried you home from that place you were not meant to be. Guests at a party you did not know you were invited to. The monster that eats what you are not ready to leave behind. The dog that speaks sweet words in languages you thought you killed long ago.
Who's name keeps showing up in that dream journal? Who's address is the serial number on the folds of your brain? What is it, that thing, that calls your name from the dark, that softly beckons, that makes you feel as if you've met before, when you know that you haven't.
Submission email in bio. You have two months to prepare and submit your work due to hiatus - we're looking forward to see what you've got!
