Active Communities on Dreamwidth Winter 2022-23 A-I

These are active communities in Dreamwidth from Winter 2022-23. They include things I've posted, but only the active ones; the thematic posts also list dormant communities of interest. This list includes some communities that I've found and saved but haven't made it into thematic posts yet. This post covers A-I.

Highly active with multiple posts per day, daily posts, or too many to count easily
Active with (one, multiple, many) posts in (current or recent month)
Somewhat active (latest post within current year, not in last month or few)
Low traffic (latest post in previous year)
Dormant (latest post before previous year)
Note that some communities are only active during a limited time, or only have gather posts on a certain schedule.

Poem: "Tretår"

This poem came out of the February 7, 2023 Poetry Fishbowl. It was inspired and sponsored by nsfwords. It also fills the "Pink Calcite - Emotional Wholeness" square in my 2-1-23 card for the Valentines Bingo fest. This poem belongs to the series Eloquent Souls.

"A Better Place for Everyone" is now complete!

Thanks to a donation from fuzzyred, you can now read the rest of "A Better Place for Everyone."  Shiv draws some outrageous social alert buttons.

Birdfeeding

Today is partly sunny and cool.

I fed the birds.  I've seen a flock of sparrows, two mourning doves, a starling, a robin, a female downy woodpecker, and a fox squirrel.

White crocus have buds in the rain garden but aren't open yet, same with the orange ones in the goddess garden.  Some daffodils have buds too. 

Final Friday

nsfwords is hosting Final Friday with a theme of "Coffee & Tea." Leave prompts, get ficlets!
