If I Build It, Would They Come?

[amalnahurriyeh]

If I were to start a DW community* specifically for feminist** fans of BBC Sherlock:

1) Would you join?
2) Would you participate in, say, weekly discussion posts?
3) Would you be willing to occasionally lead discussion posts?
4) Do you think sherlocked_feminists is a decent name? (I tried to pick one that made clear that the central fannish object is the BBC iteration, not the others--the comm as I envision it wouldn't be hostile to fans of the broader canon, but would specifically be intended for BBC!verse fans.)
5) And should I actually title it Angry Feminists Having Accidental Feels About BBC Sherlock? (to solve the Whose Face Are We Having Feels About Today problem.)

* keep in mind that the experience of philedom suggests I am not the world's best community mod, though my intentions are always good.

** with all the caveats that it's not a term everyone identifies with, and that the comm rules would make it clear that it's a broad category, and also that the relevant feminism would be intersectional (e.g., anti-racist, anti-homophobic, anti-transphobic, anti-classist, etc).

Tumblr savior is your friend.

Ha, probably--except that, first, I use tumblr on my phone almost exclusively, so I don't know if I can tumblr savior things on there, and, second, I don't actually know what I would block. It's based on tags, right? So I like seeing pretty pictures from Elementary and things like that when people on my feed post them, and I like pictures and squee from Sherlock too. There's not really a way to differentiate the canon wars elements from the happy fun elements via tags. Plus, it's actually only mostly one person (not you), so I don't have to deal with too much of it. There was just a spate of it that made me sadface a lot.

That icon is amazing.

Most days I forget I own a cell phone so using tumblr via phone wouldn't have occurred to me. roxicons has a post with numerous Pusheen kitty icons. I love the litter box one except it's missing the flurries of litter flying every which way.
