Hey, I have had a largely great experience at Worldcon, but the #Hugos owe @wordsiren.bsky.social an apology for forgetting to include her in the announced Lodestar nominees during the award ceremony. Kamilah deserved celebration, not this blatant disrespect.

like can we also talk about how weird it is these are attached to a kids book series, beyond the elephant in the room. it’s WEIRD to sell your sold into sexual slavery romance based on its link to kid characters
If the publishers are going to talk about it, why is everyone acting so hush hush?
