Awful.
Worth noting that choosing to release an obviously-doctored set of stats—they could easily have fixed them up and no one would be the wiser—could have been a kind of message/disclosure from people stuck in an impossible position. One comment called it "work to rule".

Cheryl Morgan, who runs the Hugo website, has a really useful thread here: bsky.app/profile/cher... (but don't shoot the messenger none of this is on her!!)
Also this question posed in her blog post is the smartest thing I've seen on the subject so far:

I’ve been waiting for these to come out for months precisely to learn why on earth Babel wasn’t on the list and — ineligible? What…
Hugo nominating stats are out and make for *very* interesting reading.
Babel was deemed ineligible. The people behind the movie Prey declined the nomination (!)

There is a very bad internet bill out there that has bipartisan support. It’s called KOSA. Elizabeth Warren is a cosponsor.
It is being used as a regulatory trojan horse to punish sites that host LGBTQ voices on the internet.

My hot-take is that livejournal's ability to allow users to change PFPs per post instead of tying them to profiles was the height of socmed features and will never be matched. 😔

I’m two-thirds through #2 and loving it, and #1 was just a delight start to finish. The relationship development could not feel more earned and *human* every step of the way — KJC is, as ever, a marvel 💙 app.thestorygraph.com/books/11765c...

Just finished Good Omens S2! That was good fun and had me watching through my fingers near the end there. I really hope they get a third season.

Kind of wish I had the energy to care enough to have opinions about the #Yuletide changes being discussed on the DW comm, but it’s getting harder for me to muster up enthusiasm for Yuletide, even for reading. I used to love it so much :/ Damn it.

New account, I guess! Well. I saw the musical Six today and it was all kinds of fun. Looking forward to getting earwormed by the soundtrack for the next 2-6 years.
