SSR Confidential!

ssrconfidential is up, so if you want to read lots and lots of Agent Carter fic, hie you to the archive. The collection is here.

BUT, first go and read my gift, because it is adorable and ferocious and starts with a tiny Peggy Carter running away to join the circus. Ack, so beautiful, and so sad at the end:
Four Times Peggy Tried to Run Away (and the one time it finally worked), (G, Michael Carter & Peggy Carter)

Some other recs from randomly browsing the collection:
Beautiful Ana-centric story, from her rescue, to post-injury recovery. And Zsa-Zsa Gabor!:
All of Me, (Teen, Ana Jarvis/Edwin Jarvis)

Daniel Sousa and Jack Thompson negotiating a relationship, with period-specific awkwardness. I loved the contrast between private!Jack and public!Jack, and how baffled poor Daniel is.
Sweater Weather (Teen, Daniel Sousa/Jack Thompson)

Beautiful art for Peggy and Jason:
Not The Last Dance This Time (Teen, Peggy Carter/Jason Wilkes)


Other rando linkspams:
From Ravelry: Ammonite crochet pattern: Built up on the Fibonacci sequence, this is so beautiful! If I knew Tunisian crochet, I would so be making one of these.

From Buzzfeed: Canadians taste fairy bread for the first time; have a lot of feelings - Fairy bread is an Aussie thing: bread and butter with sprinkles. This video is tragic and triumphant at the same time, as the Canadians struggle to understand the phenomenon, and then see the true beauty of the thing.

From Etsy: Tiger shark tooth cufflinks. I just feel that this is a thing that John Reese would wear. Okay, maybe not, but he totally should wear them, then use them to cut through ropes and escape to rescue everyone from the dark dystopia that S5 has become. /bad fic ideas I have in the middle of the night.

#starringjohncho Starring John Cho. Some freaking genius shops John Cho into movie posters to counter the argument that people can't imagine an Asian-American lead actor. (Not going to lie - I would go and see all of these.)

From umadoshi: Depression-Busting Exercise Tips For People Too Depressed To Exercise - the thing I liked about this article was the concept of listening to your own instincts, not measuring your abilities against other people's. Took me a long time to get to that point in my own head.

Rando cool tumblr: Bowie and Nudibranchs. "It works to such an uncanny degree it’s hard not to imagine that a young Bowie received an illustrated book of nudibranchia at a young age, and spent the rest of his career mining the pages for new looks."

Balm for that post that continually circulates on facebook about how things were so much better before iPhones: We Weren’t That Resilient.

ASL: Amber Galloway Gallego signs Hilltop Hoods - ASL translator interprets Aussie hip-hop classic 'The Nosebleed Section'.

Peak country headline has been reached: Earless nanny goat births triplets after bee attack (CW: animal harm of the accidental kind, involving bees. Goat survives, goes on to epic birth story.)

Asshole birds: Do birds of prey spread bushfires? (Answer: only in Australia. Because Straya.)

Spider-Man - threat or menace? JK Simmons is mind-blowingly ripped. J Jonah is ready for action, apparently.

This messed up experiment: Shocking video of Electric eel. Because the thing to do is to make a fake alligator head, line it with LEDs and poke an electric eel. For science.
