  <title>Worthwhile links about racism in fandom + OTW Vote</title>
  <link>https://amara1783.dreamwidth.org/200509.html</link>
  <description>&lt;b&gt;In the interests of context/full disclosure:&lt;/b&gt; I follow &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/rahaeli&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/rahaeli&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;rahaeli&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; as up until now I have found Denise to be a voice worth listening to about social media and tech stuff, especially as it intersects with fandom. I am not friends/mutuals with Stitch nor do I follow them; I may have interacted with them once in passing years ago if that. I have read some of their essays and blog posts and have found them insightful and worthwhile. I am also not one of the organisers of #EndOTWRacism; I do support &lt;a href=&quot;https://end-otw-racism.tumblr.com/post/716978822501875712/fandom-against-racism-a-manifesto&quot;&gt;their goals&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://impertinence.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://impertinence.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;impertinence&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; wrote a very good post a week ago titled &lt;a href=&quot;https://impertinence.dreamwidth.org/699304.html&quot;&gt;whatever we owe each other&lt;/a&gt; that it also available as &lt;a href=&quot;https://stopthatimp.tumblr.com/post/720583061393326080/text-below-as-i-now-have-time-to-duplicate-it-with&quot;&gt;a tumblr post&lt;/a&gt;. It goes into what accountability in online communities can look like, what harassment looks like (ie just calling someone a bad name is not harassment) and the effects of Denise&apos;s actions.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;When you ask people to believe that a person online is a serial harasser based on claims they haven&apos;t seen from people they don&apos;t know, you are not advancing the cause of internet safety. You are not advancing the cause of internet anti-racism. You are perpetuating a culture which makes judgements about the moral and ethical implication of people&apos;s behavior based on personality and connections rather than facts and the context for those facts. This worsens the problem; it creates space for malicious actors to thrive, because they don&apos;t have to stand up to ethical scrutiny from their peers. They just need to know the right people and say the right things.&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And worded slightly differently, on Twitter: &quot;&lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/_impertinence/status/1671335129396936704&quot;&gt;I’m going to say this again because I know FFA got their feelings hurt about this: it is fundamentally wrong to try and advance a model of dealing with claims of harm in a community by relying on a game of telephone. &quot;trust me bro&quot; is not a workable model of community safety.&lt;/a&gt;&quot; &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/_impertinence&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/_impertinence&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;_impertinence&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/twwings&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/twwings&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;twwings&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; wrote &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/twwings/status/1670106403967496193&quot;&gt;an insightful thread&lt;/a&gt; that is &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/fiercynonym/status/1671289727566352385&quot;&gt;publicly accessible via screenshot with permission here&lt;/a&gt; thanks to &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/fiercynonym&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/fiercynonym&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;fiercynonym&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. A few standout quotes for me were these:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Critique is not censorship, though it is often &quot;mistaken&quot; for such when there is motive to ignore the critique. Most objections to EOR that I have seen amount to willful misreadings, and this is no different.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Citing Stitch, however much, whatever you think of Stitch, does not invalidate EOR in and of itself. If EOR is relying on something Stitch said that is untrue as a foundational part of their arguments, then we can talk about that, but I&apos;ve seen no evidence for that.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you were trying to act in solidarity with victims of harassment, the way to do it would not be by writing an offhand tweet in the middle of a long thread about CSEM mentioning that you don&apos;t agree with a movement the supposed harasser isn&apos;t even a part of&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A lot of white people (and others) believe that critiquing structural racism is itself an attack on the space it&apos;s discussing. Worth thinking about: if you see any critique of racism within your space as an attack, how foundational must racism be to that space? ~ &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/twwings&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/twwings&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;twwings&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There is a new Call to Action from the organisers of &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://end-otw-racism.tumblr.com&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.tumblr.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[tumblr.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://end-otw-racism.tumblr.com&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;end-otw-racism&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; regarding the upcoming vote for the OTW Board &lt;a href=&quot;https://end-otw-racism.tumblr.com/post/720333769684484096/vote-to-end-otw-racism&quot;&gt;#Vote to End OTW Racism&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/runpunkrun&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/runpunkrun&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;runpunkrun&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; tweeted &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/runpunkrun/status/1671929441742913536&quot;&gt;her thoughts about her participation in #VoteToEndOTWRacism&lt;/a&gt; which I found helped clarify my thinking about it. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://doctorskuld.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://doctorskuld.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;doctorskuld&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; has put together his thoughts on the candidates in a &lt;a href=&quot;https://doctorskuld.dreamwidth.org/641779.html&quot;&gt;Preliminary rundown of the candidates for OTW Board 2023&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you want to vote but need a hand with the US$10 OTW membership fee, &lt;a href=&quot;https://clevermanka.dreamwidth.org/1528948.html&quot;&gt;here are some offers to help with that&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;As before, this isn&apos;t intended to be an exhaustive roundup; I just wanted to post the stuff about the OTW vote and link to some things I have found helpful.

  <title>*shrieking eel noises* at the latest Fandom Racism</title>
  <link>https://amara1783.dreamwidth.org/200203.html</link>
  <description>A few days ago &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/rahaeli&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/rahaeli&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;rahaeli&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;/ &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://synecdochic.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://synecdochic.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;synecdochic&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; /Denise posted a thread on Twitter about the &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1669350441971494914&quot;&gt;OTW/AO3&apos;s failures on basic Trust and Safety&lt;/a&gt;, which they (I don&apos;t know what pronouns Denise uses and none are listed on their bios so I&apos;m defaulting to they)are very qualified to speak on. The thread attracted a lot of attention and retweets, including by me. Towards the end of this very long, technical thread, which had been ongoing for a few hours by then and had already been retweeted heaps, they mention that they &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1669401344606650370&quot;&gt;&quot;appreciate the work of the EndOTWRacism campaign to raise awareness of the OTW&apos;s organizational dysfunction. I firmly disagree with the foundational work their campaign was built upon and many of the arguments they have made.&quot;&lt;/a&gt; Folks ask what they mean. About 12 hrs later Denise elaborates on this by continuing the same already VERY long thread, and says this &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1669577488207425536&quot;&gt;&quot;The campaign run by EndOTWRacism has made multiple extremely valid points that are undermined by the background information citing to the work of people who conflate actual racist harassment, the conduct, with &quot;fiction that expresses racist beliefs&quot;, the content. By citing to that foundational material, the campaign is undermining its claim they are not calling for action against works &quot;that accidentally invoke racist or other bigoted stereotypes&quot;&lt;/a&gt; (thread continues).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This statement misrepresents &lt;a href=&quot;https://end-otw-racism.tumblr.com/post/716978822501875712/fandom-against-racism-a-manifesto&quot;&gt;what the End OTW Racism campaign is calling for&lt;/a&gt;. It also takes the bizarre position that if you cite material, you must agree with the entire body of work of the person you are citing. I mean be serious. Stitch is cited because she is one of the only people doing the work of chronicling racism in fandom. She has experienced extreme levels of harassment for it, which has been well-documented. Hardly anyone is doing this work because it is thankless, traumatising work. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I agree with &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/originalmardia&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/originalmardia&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;originalmardia&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; when she says &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/originalmardia/status/1669515410935369728&quot;&gt;&quot;I have absolutely no idea why a thread about the OTW’s failings (which are NUMEROUS) needed to be derailed by swiping at the very campaign that made it possible to find out what was happening at the OTW.&quot;&lt;/a&gt; It seems such an unnecessary tangent in a VERY long, technical thread. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/scarletgumboots/status/1669858926979084288&quot;&gt;feeling Not Great&lt;/a&gt; about this, and just trying to figure out what I want to do, given that Denise is the co-founder/owner of Dreamwidth. I have a paid account, and have for the past few years, and had up until this been happy to have DW as a place to hang out, even if I&apos;ve been really struggling with posting/replying to comments on here. &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://naye.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://naye.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;naye&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; posted &lt;a href=&quot;https://naye.dreamwidth.org/2394034.html&quot;&gt;some of her thoughts&lt;/a&gt; a lot of which I really connected with, especially the part about how racism from the Landlord of Mars (to use &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/alexandraerin&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/alexandraerin&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;alexandraerin&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&apos;s phrase) impacts me differently than racism from someone who is part of fandom, co-runs this site, and of whom I thought better. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/pearwaldorf&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/pearwaldorf&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;pearwaldorf&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; posted &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.tumblr.com/pearwaldorf/720410466342567936/we-need-to-talk-about-rahaeli&quot;&gt;her take on what Denise is saying/doing&lt;/a&gt;, which I found a very worthwhile read and makes a lot of good points. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anyway, today &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/rahaeli&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/rahaeli&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;rahaeli&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;/ &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://synecdochic.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://synecdochic.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;synecdochic&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; /Denise posted &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/rahaeli/status/1670529315207774208&quot;&gt;a new thread in which they sought to clarify their process&lt;/a&gt;. It&apos;s another really long thread and made me wonder whether the point might be to exhaust people with walls of text that sound &apos;reasonable&apos; and basically amount to &apos;the lurkers support me in email&apos; and &apos;trust me bro&apos;.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/Tanndell&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/Tanndell&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;Tanndell&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; addressed this new thread of Denise&apos;s insightfully and allowed me to screenshot to share it publicly here: &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/scarletgumboots/status/1670660614686113799&quot;&gt;Let’s break down the insidious and dangerous nature of Rahaeli’s new thread, which targets stitch specifically and #endotwracism generically 🧵&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I also want to link to Dr. &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/RukminiPande&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/RukminiPande&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;RukminiPande&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; pointing out that this is &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/RukminiPande/status/1670628217365975041&quot;&gt;&quot;yet another giant thread of vague accusations against Stitch with no proof so no way to disprove it... there is mountains of evidence of an extensive harassment campaign against Stitch by hundreds of ppl. But, what does this white person with power do? Decide to use all of that power to try and destroy Stitch for the crime of what? Of being cited by someone?&quot;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There&apos;s more I could link to but this isn&apos;t intended to be an exhaustive roundup - just wanted to give my perspective on what&apos;s been happening. Disabling comments as I am pants at responding to DW comments and then that makes me anxious.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=amara1783&amp;ditemid=200203&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>Call to action: End OTW Racism</title>

  <description>It pisses me off no end that almost three years after the &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.transformativeworks.org/statement-from-the-otw-board-of-directors-chairs-leads/&quot;&gt;OTW committed to do better about racism in fandom&lt;/a&gt;, they have done sweet fuck all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was at the last OTW Public Board Meeting on March 27th and was left very much with the impression that the board wants the issue to go away, and intends to drag things out as long as they possibly can in the hope that it does. In fact they even did that during that board meeting, with Natalia Gruber taking seven minutes (out of an hour long meeting that was ended promptly) to reply to &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://satsuma.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://satsuma.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;satsuma&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&apos;s question about the approximate timeline for hiring a diversity consultant; a question that they must reasonably have expected to be asked. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;m going to quote Natalia&apos;s reply in full:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;I&apos;m afraid we aren&apos;t able at this time to provide an estimate for specific steps on the project. We understand that this project is as important to you as it is for us, and that asking for your patience is unfair when people have already been waiting for so long. Unfortunately, there are many aspects that make it hard for us to have detailed timelines for large projects in the OTW. For one thing, while we can occasionally rely on the work of contractors, the vast majority of OTW work is done by volunteers who need to balance their responsibilities to our organization with their own professional and personal responsibilities. Our volunteers are spread all over the world, and it can be difficult to have the necessary discussions to carry projects forward. We also want to make sure we fully consider every possible aspect of any changes we make, to make sure we&apos;re not causing unintended difficulties and problems for our users, volunteers, and organization. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That all means that we often need to change our plans as we go along, and be flexible with timelines. We also don&apos;t know at this time, once we managed to find a Consultant, how long they will need to get familiar with the OTW and its problems, whether they will be able to start working with us right away or need to finalize other contracts, and whether we&apos;ll managed to get our first option, or have to move through more than one company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://discord.com/channels/815166342483017758/815167033946669076/1089714146574094337&quot;&gt;https://discord.com/channels/815166342483017758/815167033946669076/1089714146574094337&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I was flabbergasted, and replied:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;blockquote&gt;Thanks Natalia, I hear all of that, and I understand you can&apos;t give a deadline given the above. I am concerned that this work is being unnecessarily delayed. It is almost 3 years since the OTW comitted to doing better on racism in fandom. Almost 15 yrs since Racefail. Without even an indication of a hoped-for completion date this just seems like so many empty words.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://discord.com/channels/815166342483017758/815167033946669076/1089714842866303026&quot;&gt;https://discord.com/channels/815166342483017758/815167033946669076/1089714842866303026&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;Wanting fandom racism to be dealt with appropriately by the OTW isn’t purity nonsense, it isn’t being antis, it isn’t wank or fandom drama or shipwars.&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is racism being present in fandom, as it is present everywhere, because it is &lt;i&gt;permitted&lt;/i&gt; to be present in fandom. That is a &lt;i&gt;choice&lt;/i&gt;. I think we need to combat racism wherever we find it, and for me, one of those places is fandom.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I think &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/generalfrings&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/generalfrings&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;generalfrings&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; explains it well: &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/generalfrings/status/1657663448975650818&quot;&gt;The difference between &apos;regular&apos; racism and fandom racism is that in fandom we allow + enact harm on black folks and folks of color by kicking them while shouting &quot;WE ARE REVOLUTIONARY, INCLUSIVE AND PROGRESSIVE&quot; instead of kicking them while saying slurs. ig it hurts less then!&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;d love it if you would read the info linked below and consider participating. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;✨&lt;b&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://end-otw-racism.tumblr.com/post/716978822501875712/fandom-against-racism-a-manifesto&quot;&gt;End OTW Racism: A Call To Action&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;✨&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=amara1783&amp;ditemid=199199&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <description>I am attempting to learn how to build an author website for &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://lmzorn.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://lmzorn.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;lmzorn&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&apos;s books because apparently authors need a &apos;platform&apos; and a website is part of that 🤷🏻‍♀️&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here&apos;s the link to the free course, which I found via &lt;a href=&quot;https://davidgaughran.com&quot;&gt;David Gaughran&lt;/a&gt;: &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://gocreate.teachable.com/p/how-to-create-an-author-website-on-wordpress&quot;&gt;The 2020 Authors&apos; Guide to Getting a Domain Name &amp; Self-Hosted WordPress&lt;/a&gt; by Caro Bégin&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The last time I made a website it was on Angelfire 😆&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Also, I am so SO tempted to go with lmzorn.gay as a domain name, even though lmzorn.com is the sensible option!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=amara1783&amp;ditemid=162901&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>山河令Word of Honor</title>
  <link>https://amara1783.dreamwidth.org/161071.html</link>
  <description>I couldn&apos;t sleep the other night and ended up binging new cdrama Word of Honor, because &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/GixiNinja&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/GixiNinja&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;GixiNinja&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/fandoestrans&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/fandoestrans&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;fandoestrans&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; were enthusiastically posting about it. I started watching thinking that, like just about everything new I&apos;ve tried to watch for over a year, I would bounce off of it. But I didn&apos;t, and I&apos;m really enjoying it! 🥰&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So of course now the worry is that the CCP censors will pull it for being too gay. Feeling a bit despondent about that but I figure the best thing to do is enjoy it while I can. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The first episode was quite full-on and dialled the intensity up to eleventy and there&apos;s a lot of &lt;i&gt;very&lt;/i&gt; pretty cinematography and lots of Zhou Zishu looking gorgeous. I was close at certain points in the first episode to thinking it might not be for me, as there&apos;s body horror and torture and chronic pain, but it never &lt;i&gt;quite&lt;/i&gt; hit my threshold, and eps 2, 3 and 4 were less full-on. I&apos;ve set up and started adding things to &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1fTW1PpuJi2o5igkSQVMxYg8qZ-z7tLBzcYfSRxGI3jE/edit?usp=sharing&quot;&gt;Crowdsourced Content Notes for 山河令Word of Honor&lt;/a&gt; which will hopefully give people a bit of a heads up about at some things (with many thanks to &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://naye.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://naye.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;naye&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; for the template - here is her &lt;a href=&quot;https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1xFK-G4QqWtaZRPbdFPKOTY6Wx59kSM582xg7PsN2IQk/edit?usp=sharing&quot;&gt;Crowdsourced Lost Tomb Reboot / The Sound of the Providence /盗墓笔记重启之极海听雷 Content Note Collection&lt;/a&gt;).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;You can watch Word of Honor here:&lt;br /&gt;✨&lt;a href=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLATwx1z00Hsd40-sJdHJ_07i3KqQ_sdaG&quot;&gt;山河令Word of Honor Youku subbed playlist&lt;/a&gt;✨&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=amara1783&amp;ditemid=161071&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>New Queer Historical Fiction: The Lion&apos;s Cub</title>
  <link>https://amara1783.dreamwidth.org/159032.html</link>
  <description>&lt;img src=&quot;https://lmzorn.dreamwidth.org/file/318.png&quot; alt=&quot;&amp;#39;The beginning of a friendship that would become legend...&amp;#39; above a banner of two people in silhouette on horseback with a city behind them, text reads &amp;#39;The Lion&amp;#39;s Cub&amp;#39; by L M Zorn and beneath that &amp;#39;Book 1 of the Philalexandros Chronicles: The story of Hephaistion and Alexander the Great 23/02/2021&quot; title=&quot;The Lion&amp;#39;s Cub ad&quot; width=&quot;600&quot; /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My partner wrote a book!!! 🥳🎉✨&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She&apos;s actually written several books, but this is the first one in the series and the one that&apos;s all polished and pretty and ready for the limelight. I seem to have been designated &apos;social media manager&apos; because my attempts to &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/scarletgumboots/status/1335430224683565057&quot;&gt;lure her on to the birdapp&lt;/a&gt; have met with minimal success, and her idea of how to let people know she has a book out is basically &lt;a href=&quot;https://youtu.be/xX0IdQ612yg&quot;&gt;that scene from Parks n Rec where Ron Swanson announces that there is art available but not to talk to him about it&lt;/a&gt;. She would say: &quot;Here is a book. I wrote it. You can read it if you want. End of communication.&quot;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;She&apos;s been writing the series since she was a teenager, because none of the books she read about Alexander the Great and Hephaistion seemed right to her (if you mention the 2004 movie she makes some quite &lt;i&gt;interesting&lt;/i&gt; noises and then starts muttering crossly).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Basically, this is Alexandros&apos; and Hephaistion&apos;s story that is about them as three-dimensional imperfect people, and is queer without being about teh gay angst. She&apos;s written it because the voices in her head told her to, and because she couldn&apos;t leave it alone. She&apos;s read a LOT about them, and made hissing noises at quite a few of the books she consulted for being either homophobic or Alexander apologists. She&apos;s spent hours figuring out whether a particular bit of armour would have been buckled or tied on.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is the book (and series) I wish had been there when I first discovered Alexander the Great and was reading everything about him I could get my hands on. Among others I read Renault&apos;s &lt;i&gt;Fire from Heaven&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;The Persian Boy&lt;/i&gt; and Gemmell&apos;s &lt;i&gt;Lion of Macedon&lt;/i&gt; and &lt;i&gt;Dark Prince&lt;/i&gt;. The story fascinated me, but every book seemed to either ignore Alexandros&apos; relationship with Hephaistion, or dwell on it in ways that seemed voyeuristic and made me uncomfortable. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This book would not exist without 镇魂Guardian fandom and the many awesomely talented people therein, since neither of us had the first clue how to go about publishing.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/elizabeth_fitz&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/e0caa790ec10/-/twitter.com/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[twitter.com profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;http://twitter.com/elizabeth_fitz&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;elizabeth_fitz&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; of &lt;a href=&quot;http://earlgreyediting.com.au&quot;&gt;Earl Grey Editing&lt;/a&gt; did the initial developmental edit which was super helpful and provided much needed perspective on the scope of the first book.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://ranalore.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://ranalore.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;ranalore&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; did copy-editing and proofing and I highly recommend her for really helpful clear-eyed input.

  <title>Sunday Snippet from Ch4 of LABOTW</title>
  <link>https://amara1783.dreamwidth.org/158935.html</link>
  <description>Haven&apos;t done one of these in &lt;i&gt;ages&lt;/i&gt; but I have been wrangling with this chapter and realised it was Sunday 😈✨&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is a snippet from &lt;a href=&quot;https://archiveofourown.org/works/28465734&quot;&gt;Like a bridge over troubled water&lt;/a&gt;, the &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://fandomtrumpshate.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/community.png&apos; alt=&apos;[community profile] &apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://fandomtrumpshate.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;fandomtrumpshate&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; fic that I am writing for &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://glymr.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://glymr.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;glymr&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;⚠️The fic as a whole is 🔞E rated, and is &lt;b&gt;Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan/Ye Zun&lt;/b&gt;. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It&apos;s a canon AU that diverges after Zhao Yunlan travels to the past. At this point in the story Zhao Yunlan has been in his role as Kunlun for over a month before he returns to Alliance Headquarters and meets Shen Wei, and I think this bit stands reasonably on its own, and is rated G same as this scene on the show.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;cut-wrapper&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;span-cuttag___1&quot; class=&quot;cuttag&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-open&quot;&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-text&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://amara1783.dreamwidth.org/158935.html#cutid1&quot;&gt;Walking along the clifftops in the moonlight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-close&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;div-cuttag___1&quot; aria-live=&quot;assertive&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=amara1783&amp;ditemid=158935&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

I keep sortof bouncing off stories, or not being able to concentrate enough to read them to feel I&apos;m doing them justice. I also seem to be reading a lot of AUs lately for some reason. 🤷🏻‍♀️ And several times the AO3 has told me I&apos;ve already left kudos on a recent fic that I have no memory of reading...🧐 Anyway, here&apos;s some fic I&apos;ve enjoyed lately 🥰&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;cut-wrapper&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;span-cuttag___1&quot; class=&quot;cuttag&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-open&quot;&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-text&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://amara1783.dreamwidth.org/150871.html#cutid1&quot;&gt;镇魂Guardian recs&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-close&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;div-cuttag___1&quot; aria-live=&quot;assertive&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=amara1783&amp;ditemid=150871&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <title>Apparently I vid now??? 😆</title>
  <link>https://amara1783.dreamwidth.org/144103.html</link>
  <description>I made a vid about Ye Zun. I... don&apos;t even have a thing for Ye Zun WHAT IS HAPPENING??? I blame Zhu Yilong&apos;s gorgeous face for this tbh. And #NaNoWriMo because yes I did &lt;a href=&quot;https://twitter.com/scarletgumboots/status/1328940093445459970&quot;&gt;learn how to vid because I wasn&apos;t having any luck writing&lt;/a&gt;. And also I blame &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://bonibaru.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://bonibaru.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;bonibaru&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; and &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://naye.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://naye.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;naye&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; who didn&apos;t stop me when they had the chance 😈😉🥳&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;iframe width=&quot;560&quot; height=&quot;315&quot; src=&quot;https://www.youtube.com/embed/u9tbmtE8nrY&quot; frameborder=&quot;0&quot; allow=&quot;accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture&quot; allowfullscreen=&quot;allowfullscreen&quot;&gt;&lt;/iframe&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;📽️ Primadonna Zun&lt;br /&gt;🎶Song: Primadonna by Marina and the Diamonds&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So I think this is a reasonable-ish first draft of what I want this vid to look like. This has been such a ~process for me because I have literally no idea what I&apos;m doing, either with iMovie or with vidding. I&apos;m just sort of going with gut feeling of what goes where, which is I suppose a similar process to when I write, only with writing I&apos;m used to what that feels like. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This is very much still in draft form - as I will probably tinker with it a bit more but I need to work on a different project for a while to get some perspective on it back. Of course as soon as I uploaded I spotted a mistake where I hadn&apos;t cut precisely enough, at 1:14 🤦🏻‍♀️&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I had a lot of fun making this, and I hope you have fun watching it! Concrit is love! 🥰&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;d also really appreciate links to meta posts about vidding, about people&apos;s process, and about technical stuff - I feel like I don&apos;t even know what questions to ask at the moment. Especially anything about vidding on a Mac and using iMovie would be awesome!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=amara1783&amp;ditemid=144103&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

However, discovering that the new S.I.D. chief was gaining the trust of Dixingren allies against all odds, Shen Wei decides to use this ability to indulge his curiosity with a harmless bit of reconnaissance. Unexpectedly, this spur of the moment decision leads to him stalking a surprisingly familiar man, one he’d never thought he’d see again. Irresistibly drawn to this beloved figure, Shen Wei finds himself on light paws and in dark fur day after day, watching unseen from within the shadows...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;This is absolutely the adorable fluffy goodness I need In These Times.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;✨&lt;a href=&quot;https://archiveofourown.org/works/16633412&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;down comes the night&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;  by &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://www.archiveofourown.org/users/egelantier/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/-/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[archiveofourown.org profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://www.archiveofourown.org/users/egelantier/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;egelantier&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;G, 镇魂Guardian, Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, 9.4k&lt;br /&gt;Summary: Zhao Yunlan and Shen Wei, trapped in the darkness under the mountain together while investigating a dangerous case, finally share some secrets and reach a new understanding.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Lovely fic exploring the fallout of episode 23.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;✨&lt;a href=&quot;https://archiveofourown.org/works/24123583&quot;&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Every Single Cloud Becomes a Raging Storm&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt; by &lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://www.archiveofourown.org/users/tinypinkmouse/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://p2.dreamwidth.org/b164c54b26e4/-/archiveofourown.org/favicon.ico&apos; alt=&apos;[archiveofourown.org profile] &apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; width=&apos;16&apos; height=&apos;16&apos;/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://www.archiveofourown.org/users/tinypinkmouse/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;tinypinkmouse&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; &lt;br /&gt;E, 镇魂Guardian, Shen Wei/Zhao Yunlan, 3.7k&lt;br /&gt;Summary: Zhao Yunlan&apos;s first time with Shen Wei turns out very differently then either of them expected.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;i&gt;Neat-as look at what a first time would have been like, with Shen Wei holding back and some awesome sex-gone-wrong.&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=amara1783&amp;ditemid=117249&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>
