Insta!Rec: Vid, Unconditional, Queer As Folk, Ensemble

Unconditional by dreamrequiem
This is a Queer as Folk ensemble vid and it has made me want to re-watch the series in its entirety. I think the thing it does, which I haven't seen in a lot of QaF vids (but then maybe I'm not exactly looking), in addition to really highlighting some powerful individual character moments, is that it focuses on these characters and all of these really great moments in a way that is more focused on this family (both by birth/marriage and their created family), which was such an integral part of the show. It was as important as, if not more than, all the cute men kissing and touching and having angst. It's a really rather unexpectedly heartwarming and emotional video.

If you take the time to watch the vid, don't forget to leave feedback for the vidder.

my whining and complaining can be found here

→ In case you missed them:

• I opened up a brand new community this week. stupid_happy Everydamnthing is sadly gone. Still got the website though.
• To christen this new community I posted the one thing I knew I could finish, Hung From the Same Twisted Rope, a Lost Jack/Claire fanmix.
• gigglemonster and I are holding a Harper's Island Stocking Stuffer Exchange over at the_cannery. If you watched this show and want to write fic for it (or know anyone who does!) now's the time to sign up! (Sign-ups close this Sunday.)

→ Last call for cards. I should be sending cards/postcards out by the 7th but the reality may look more like the 14th. One or the other. Either way, they will be getting there before the big guy himself.

→ Don't forget to take a peek and share your tunes over at my holiday music share meme.

→ If anyone has posted a holiday wish list that I've missed please link me to it. (Pretty please?) Mine is over here. And I'm working on a "favorite pairing" list for those of you who are wondering about that. ETA: I added my favorite pairings for fic (not definitive) over here. Holy crap that's a long (and scary) list.

→ kmousie posted some great links the other day, some non-gift charity ideas for the holidays. I thought I'd share them.

• Heifer's International Gift Catalog
• Oxfam Unwrapped
• Red Cross 2009's Holiday Giving Catalog
• The Breast Cancer Site's Gifts that Give More
• ELCA Good Gifts
• Amnesty International
• CURE International
• USO's Support Our Troops

→ I must have watched that QaF vid about ten times. And then I ended up buying the series on the cheap at ebay -- something which I have put off doing for a very long time. I'm excited.

→ What are you folks up to today?
