I've been on the Lois McMaster Bujold list ever since I first went online. Lois' natural pace is about a book every couple of years, so in between, she'll sometimes recommend and discuss what she's reading. Authors, books, movies, fandoms [anime, Bollywood, etc.] When Lois recommended mwt, I found the books & devoured them. The worldbuilding & characters were so amazing! I was adding mwt to the interests on my profile, when I clicked on a link and found a whole community of merry, waggish, delightful reprobates.
I enjoy how everyone contributes to building the culture of the community. Rosie's told here how While She Knits started up. One of the things I'm most gratified about is being one of the inciters of the BYU fen getting together. We all enjoyed those meetings, with pictures, fabulous food, and all sorts of hijinks. While not as active as it used to be, the community is still a fun and vibrant place. It's the first place I always post something cool, and someone always cares.
Here, have a fun video from the German filk convention last week: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pXcFa5rzEs [not that I was there; a friend shared the link]. The performers are from Seattle.
