I used to worry about fandom politics and reccing. Mostly, it's just too exhausting. What goes up at PolyRecs goes up, and people can deal.

Exactly. I pick and choose. Everyone does. If I can't find what I want one place, I try another.

Plus, we've got over 1000 stories up there, so anyone who can't find *something* to make them happy has deeper problems than the fact that I don't read MPREG or RPF.

MPREG or RPF
Decode, please? I'm guessing MPREG is male pregnancy? The other, not a clue.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
Hee.
I'd feel that way, Dana, if I hadn't just narrowly escaped getting caught in a shitstorm.

RPF--Real Person Fic, where you play games with the actors rather than characters (or with members of boybands).

Thanks for all the fish.
RPF is real person fic. And you're right about male-pregancy.

MPreg = Male Pregnancy.
Oddly, I may ping a BNF in the BVerse relating to a potential project that could in theory fall under that heading. Maybe. If I remember.
RPF = Real Person Fic.
Which is generally actor fic or boyband fic, unless you are me, in which case, it's The Many Loves of Henry Kissinger. Don't ask. It's a thing.
