I got up at 9:00 today because John needed the office (where I'm sleeping) for an online meeting at 9:30. I took my meds, picked out my clothing, and came downstairs for breakfast and coffee.

I showered, and washed my hair which needed it, and dressed. Hung out for awhile, doing not much. [personal profile] mashfanficchick's plane flight was delayed, and delayed, and delayed.

Ze and I took Winnie to the local library. After awhile, Theo joined us and Winnie, [personal profile] mashfanficchick, and I went to get lunch. We got chicken teriyaki from a Teriyaki Express down the street. Winnie and I sat outside and ate, and [personal profile] mashfanficchick went back to the house with Theo and his friend Uriah, because ze had cancelled zer flight and resceduled for tomorrow because it was so delayed.

I stayed with Winnie. She played and I read Hercule Poirot stories. Eventually Dani and [personal profile] mashfanficchick picked us up, and we went into the main part of Columbus to the main branch of the library. It's pretty impressive.

We hung around there looking it over for several hours, then left and went to eat at Dirty Frank's Hot Dog Palace. I had two corn dogs with cheese sauce.

Then we went to a fountain that children can play in, and let Winnie do that for about an hour and a half. By then I had already canceled my meeting for tonight, so I wasn't worried about the time.

After the fountain, we came back to the house, and sat on the porch for a short time, then we all came in and I Teamed the FWiB.

It was latish by then so only for about an hour, and then I started here. And here I am.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. The libraries.

3. My friends.

4. Fountains were running.

5. Beautiful weather.

6. Hot dogs.

Edited to add: I got confused. It was Theo who came to the library with us first and Winnie who joined us later.

When she was in high school, she surprised herself and delighted her boyfriend by squirting all over his face. But the incident alarmed her enough to set off a neurotic need to pee before every sexual encounter. How can she get out of her head about it, and allow for spontaneity in her current, awesome … Read More »

I slept late this morning, coming downstairs abou 11:15. Then I had breakfast and coffee, and didn't do very much for a long time.

I played a game called Cat Tails: Wildwood with Winnie, and I sat with [personal profile] mashfanficchick with Theo, and I read in my book.

Eventually around 6:30 we decided to bathe Moose, which requires going to a pet store with dog washing stations.

So Dani, [personal profile] mashfanficchick, and I packed Moose and Theo inthe car and took off. Dani and [personal profile] mashfanficchick bathed Moose while I followed Theo around. We went into the room with the adoptable cats, and played with them for awhile.

Finally they were done giving Moose his bath, and and we got him a treat and we left. Theo got a little cranky.

Got back and had dinner with [personal profile] mashfanficchick, then Teamed the FWiB.

And now I'm doing this.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. Cute kitties.

3. Good books.

sigh. I just spent half a dozen emails explaining to someone exactly which music he should pull for Tuesday's concert. Condensed version follows:

"list from DM says Stars & Stripes 1843. Wha??"
a: It's the first piece in the performance list and we've *never* opened a concert with S+S, nor have we ever played it twice in a concert and it's also at the end of the list. My assumption is that he meant the non-Moffitt Star Spangled Banner that's in the folders. (and let's not even mention that Stars + Stripes hadn't even been written in 1843.)

"But I don't have SSB 1843!"
a: You have SSB 1853, yes?

Assume an autocorrupt issue and a typo and move on, especially when there is a plausible alternative present.

"I don't have Victory for MSU"
a; yes, you do. you have Fight Song MSU, and it's been mentioned at every summer rehearsal for the last two years that Fight Song MSU is now called Victory for MSU. You could open the file called Victory for MSU and look at the pdfs to be sure.

And then there was the other individual who texted me four times last Tuesday, the last two times while I was driving home from work:
"I can't find the music link"
"do you have the set list?"
"when do we start?"
"do I need a chair?"
(the last two questions were answered in the email with the set list which I had forwarded just before I left for work.)

Note that neither one of these people is new to the band or to the summer sessions -- while newer than me, this is at least their 3d full season with the band -- and summer concerts have always started at the same time and we are to provide our own chairs and music stands.

This is, I think, one of the reasons I'm not thrilled with the summer band. This is, theoretically, the band I play in for fun....

Researchers have discovered a new way to covertly track Android users. Both Meta and Yandex were using it, but have suddenly stopped now that they have been caught.

The details are interesting, and worth reading in detail:

>Tracking code that Meta and Russia-based Yandex embed into millions of websites is de-anonymizing visitors by abusing legitimate Internet protocols, causing Chrome and other browsers to surreptitiously send unique identifiers to native apps installed on a device, researchers have discovered. Google says it’s investigating the abuse, which allows Meta and Yandex to convert ephemeral web identifiers into persistent mobile app user identities.

The covert tracking­implemented in the Meta Pixel and Yandex Metrica trackers­allows Meta and Yandex to bypass core security and privacy protections provided by both the Android operating system and browsers that run on it. Android sandboxing, for instance, isolates processes to prevent them from interacting with the OS and any other app installed on the device, cutting off access to sensitive data or privileged system resources. Defenses such as state partitioning and storage partitioning, which are built into all major browsers, store site cookies and other data associated with a website in containers that are unique to every top-level website domain to ensure they’re off-limits for every other site.

Got up and had breakfast and coffee, then dressed and went to Target with [personal profile] mashfanficchick, Dani, and Winnie. We were there to buy Winnie some bras, her first. So that was fun.

Then we came back and cleaned out [personal profile] mashfanficchick's mother's car, which has been stored here since August.

That took several hours, then we all came in and napped or dozed.

Eventually I Teamed the FWiB. We talked for an hour, and that was fun.44

At 8:30 I called Middle Brother. He is fine and looking forward to his Spring Fling on Wednesday.

Then we made dinner, individual nacho bites. Yummy.

And now I'm doing this.

Wow it's been a while since I posted an update.
The motorcycle that I had just acquired in the last post is running, but not well. It needs some work. Either a valve or a ring job. I'll be getting to that in a few weeks probably. I did a TON of stuff to it; there are photos and writeups on dragonflydiy.com though I doubt anyone cares.
This is concert week for Out Loud Chorus which I sing in. Monday is band rehearsal, plus load out of the risers from our rehearsal space and a bass sectional, so quite busy (and a late night) for me.
Those risers need to get out of my trailer sometime that week because I need the trailer for something else Saturday/Sunday (the church's rummage sale will finish Saturday and the leftovers need to be dispersed to Goodwill or whatever). That's not scheduled but will probably have to happen during the day at some point. Saturday morning may very well be the only chance since most people will be unable to do it during the day and evenings are full.
Tuesday evening is a going-away party for a former coworker-then-boss who is taking a new job.
Wednesday is tech rehearsal with the choir, which is usually a long slog.
Thursday is dress rehearsal, then Friday and Saturday are concert evenings.
Sunday is a lawn mowing day (I HOPE it doesn't rain) because on Monday I drive, picking up some friends, to Albany where we will overnight then start the 380 miles of the Erie Canal bike path. We're expecting to spend 8 days on that.
I have been doing SOME training on the bike, though probably not enough. I'm not concerned though, we're only shooting for 50 mile days and I'm confident I can hammer those out for 8 days. If not, this time we will have my truck tagging along in case someone has a bad day or an injury.
Things around the house are ticking along. Of course there's always a bunch of stuff to do, a bunch that doesn't get done, etc. I have some deck projects that I need to get to. We have been doing some plant moving, since the removal of the giant cottonwood trees a couple of years ago really rearranged what parts of the yard get sun, so some plants do worse, but also some plants that had not been doing all that well can now be moved to sunnier areas.

Got up at 8:30 this morning. Then I had breakfast and coffee, and waited til people were moving to get into my bathing suit and tee shirt and shorts.

Eventually everyone got erady and we went to Zoombezi Bay Water Park. We rented a cabana for the day, and we spent a lovely day splashing around.

[personal profile] mashfanficchick and I did the lazy river rides, both the all ages and the adults only (has a swimup bar).

We also went to the zoo and aquarium which is next door, for an hour. We fed the rays, and saw a lot of cool animals.

At the end of the day, Dani, Winnie and I did one of the big water slides. The attendant was a jerk and as a result poor Winnie didn't have fin on it. but Dani and I loved it, though we felt bad for Winniw.

Then we came home, and I Teamed the FWiB.

Fandom: Trails of Cold Steel
Pairings/Characters:
Laura S. Arseid/Duvalie, Ines/Ennea, Victor S. Arseid/McBurn
appearances by other assorted Cold Steel characters and hints of other ships Rating: M
Length: 22442 words
Creator Links: Rosie_Rues
Theme:
Grief/Mourning, Dreamsharing, Recovery, Enemies to Lovers, Enemies to Friends to Lovers, changing roles in life, loss of limb
Summary: With the Great Twilight over, Duvalie follows Laura home to Legram. She's not entirely sure why she's here, or when she's going to leave, but she can't bring herself to regret her choice.

Meanwhile, Victor's dreaming of the only man in the universe still willing to offer him a challenge...

Reccer's Notes: While I have read this fic several times, the most recent was some time ago, I always remember it as being roughly half of one ship and half of another- I note this here because one of those ships is M/M. In my rereading, I see the balance is more 2/3 to 1/3, with the bulk of it being the theme-compliant Laura/Duvalie, who begins as something of a lost and reluctant guest in Laura's home in the wake of the loss of the woman who saved her. The emotional metamorphosis of Duvalie's canonical hostility towards Laura- already very much blunted as the story opens, turn to friendship and later towards attraction is an absolute treasure. There are many smaller moments of many relationships of varying sorts between her and otter female characters throughout the story, some of which absolutely beg for stories of their own.

The M/M ships is Victor/McBurn, and they are a prominent part of the story- really a story occurring in parallel, but separately- until it suddenly isn't. While I don't want to dwell on them in this post as they are not germane to the theme, it bears mentioning that they are there in case they would turn anyone off from reading. But I will say that their development is quite astounding, a sword master who has lost an arm, a god who has lost his world and any connection to it and what they become to each other.

This fic deals with grief in many forms, over many different kinds of loss, from loss of friends, comrades in arms, loss of a limb, loss of connection to oneself and an entire world. It's all very sensitively written, and even the absolutely fantastical loss of a god from another dimension with his entire world somehow becomes much less fantastical than one might expect.

There are also themes of many different changes in life that come with time passing and with dealing with these griefs. Oh, and the very cracky-sounding, but utterly sincerely dealt with coping with the shock of learning that your father is banging the demon god from another dimension. (that needs to be a tag, ok)

This is just one of my favorite ever fics, by one of my favorite authors.

TOS Spotlight: Offensive Content

Jun. 7th, 2025 05:53 pm
[syndicated profile] otw_news_feed

Posted by xeno

The Policy & Abuse committee (PAC) is responsible for enforcing the AO3 Terms of Service (TOS). To help users better understand the TOS, we’re posting a weekly spotlight series about the TOS and our policies. We’ll also be reading comments and answering questions on this and our other spotlight posts.


Over 15% of all complaints that PAC receives each year are about content that users consider offensive but does not violate the AO3 Terms of Service. This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Fictional depictions of societally taboo topics, immoral behaviors, or crimes (such as bestiality, child sexual abuse, incest, and rape)
  • Fiction that contains or promotes offensive and/or oppressive viewpoints
  • RPF (real person fiction) that contains explicit content or portrays people in a negative light
  • Explicit fanworks for canons whose creators have said they dislike explicit content

Offensive fanworks are not against the AO3 Terms of Service, and PAC will not remove fanworks simply for being offensive.

AO3 is a home for all fanworks

AO3 operates under the principle of maximum inclusiveness of fanwork content. We will not make moral judgements about a work: if it’s a legal fanwork that does not violate any of our policies, we will not remove it from AO3.

Don’t report works for being objectionable or offensive. If you wish to avoid certain content when browsing AO3, you can use the tools discussed below.

Why does AO3 allow fanworks about content that is illegal where I live?

There is a difference between fictional content about acts that would be illegal if performed in real life, and content that is itself illegal to post or access in a particular jurisdiction.

AO3’s Terms of Service are designed to comply with United States law (specifically, the laws of Manhattan, New York). It is legal in the U.S. to create and share fictional content about murder, theft, assault, or other such crimes. It is also generally legal in the U.S. to create and share fictional content about topics such as bestiality, child sexual abuse, incest, and rape. AO3 allows users to post and access fiction about all of these topics.

In accordance with U.S. law, AO3 prohibits sexually explicit photographs, videos, and other photorealistic images of children (also known as Child Sexual Abuse Material, or CSAM). This includes embedded images, links, and any attempts to solicit, distribute, or otherwise obtain or provide access to such material – whether in a work, comment, or anywhere else on AO3.

However, stories and non-photorealistic artwork (such as drawings or cartoons) that depict sexual activity involving characters under the age of eighteen are allowed, provided that the works are properly rated and warned. Even if the work features real people, fiction about real people is still fiction, and therefore it is allowed on AO3.

Depending on where you live, the laws that apply to you may be more restrictive than the ones described above. All users are responsible for following the laws that apply to them. If certain content that is allowed on AO3 is illegal for you to access, then you should ensure you carefully observe all relevant ratings and warnings, and use the tools discussed below to avoid accessing any work that indicates it may contain such content.

What about other explicit or suggestive photorealistic images?

Photographic or photorealistic images of humans may not be used to illustrate works featuring underage sexual content (regardless of whether the images themselves are explicit in nature). This includes (but is not limited to) photographs of children, porn gifs, photo manipulations, computer-generated or “AI” images, and other linked or embedded images that could potentially be mistaken for photographs of real humans.

If the work appears to feature underage sexual content (as indicated by the “Underage Sex” Archive warning or other contextual markers present in the work’s tags, notes, or text), then PAC may require all photographic or photorealistic images of humans, regardless of their perceived age, to be removed from the work.

If your work does not feature underage sexual content, or if the images are not photorealistic, then please read our Terms of Service FAQ: Can I embed explicit images in my fanworks?

Real Person Fiction (RPF)

RPF is fiction based on real people. AO3 does not consider RPF works (in and of themselves) to be harassment of the individuals represented in the works. RPF works are allowed on AO3, even if they contain explicit content, negatively portray their subjects, or are about individuals who are minors and/or not well-known.

However, harassment and doxxing are both prohibited under our Terms of Service. This means that we do not allow works that advocate for actual harm to be done to a real person, nor do we allow works that disclose non-public information about a real person.

Fiction is generally permitted to include public information such as age, profession, city of residence, media or “stage” names, and publicly known legal names. However, if someone uses a pseudonym that they have not linked to their legal name, you’re not allowed to post content that links the two.

What if the creator of a canon states that they dislike explicit fanworks or don’t want people to create fanworks based on them or their work?

Creators are free to dislike fanworks, explicit or otherwise. However, AO3 holds the position that transformative fanworks are legal under United States law, and do not require the original creator’s permission to be posted. If a fanwork does not otherwise violate our Terms of Service, then that fanwork is allowed on AO3.

I don’t want to see certain kinds of works. How can I avoid them?

We want all our users to enjoy using AO3, but each user is responsible for their own browsing experience. If you encounter a work that upsets you, please leave the work, and use the following tools to manage your browsing experience and avoid seeing it again.

Tag exclusion filters

AO3 has an extensive tagging system. Tags can be used to filter out works when you are browsing a tag or using the work search function.

As discussed in our post about ratings and warnings, all works containing adult content must be rated “Mature”, “Explicit”, or “Not Rated”. If you don’t want to encounter adult content, you can use filters to exclude all works with these ratings. If you encounter a work rated “General” or “Teen” that has explicit content, you can report it to PAC.

In addition, all fanworks that contain underage sexual activity, rape/non-consensual sex, graphic violence, or major character death must be labeled with the respective Archive warning or the “Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings” label. Much like ratings, you can use filters to exclude any or all Archive warnings (including “Creator Chose Not To Use Archive Warnings”). If you encounter a work that is missing an Archive warning, you can report it to PAC.

Creators frequently apply relationship and additional tags to indicate other kinds of warnings or content. All of these tags can also be used to exclude works. When a tag is excluded, any tags that are linked to it as synonyms or subtags will also be excluded. For example, if you exclude the “Child Abuse” tag, works that are tagged with “Canonical Child Abuse“, “Abused Children“, etc., will also be excluded, even though they don’t use the exact tag “child abuse”.

How to use tag exclusion filters

To exclude a tag using the filters sidebar:

  1. You can get to any canonical tag’s works page by clicking on a tag, either directly on a work or by using Tag Search.
  2. Open the filters sidebar. On a large screen, it’ll automatically be visible on the right-hand side of the screen. On a small screen, select the “Filters” button to make it appear.
  3. Navigate to the “Exclude” section.
  4. You can expand each tag type to see the most common tags used on works in your search results. If the tag you want to exclude is listed, select the X next to it.
  5. If you’re trying to exclude a Fandom, Character, Relationship, or Additional tag that is not one of the most common tags, type the tag into the “Other tags to exclude” box.
  6. Select the “Sort and Filter” button at the bottom of the sidebar. This will apply the chosen search filters to the list of works you can see, removing any works with the tags you’ve excluded.

Exclude by keyword search

In addition to using tags to exclude content, you can exclude a keyword or phrase by inserting a minus sign in front of it in the “Search within results” box. Doing so will mean that any works which contain your keyword or phrase in their metadata will not show up in your results. Metadata includes the title, creator, tags, summary, and beginning and end notes, but it does not include content in the body of the work or individual chapter notes.

In addition to excluding specific keywords, you can also use this method to avoid works created by a particular user: just type -creators:USERNAME into the search box. You can filter out multiple creators at a time by typing this same command multiple times, separated by commas or spaces (for example, -creators:USERNAME1,-creators:USERNAME2).

If you’re browsing a work tag, then you can exclude keywords using the filters bar. Type your keyword exclusion into the “Search within results” box, then select “Sort and Filter”.

If you’re using Work Search, use the “Author/Artist” field to filter out works by a particular user. You can also filter them out from “Any Field”: if you do that, you’ll catch not just any works they’ve created, but also any works created by someone else where their username is mentioned in the tags, summary, notes, or other metadata.

Permanently avoid seeing specific users or works

If there is a user that you never want to see again, you can mute them. Muting a user means that you will no longer see works or bookmarks they’ve created, other users’ bookmarks of their works, or comments they’ve left on AO3. To mute a user, simply select the Mute button on their profile page.

Muting a user will result in a banner at the top of every work search results page. If you want to hide this banner, you can add a site skin that includes p.muted.notice {display: none;}. Site skins customize the way AO3 looks to you while you’re logged in.

You can also use site skins to hide specific works that you don’t want to see. Once set up, your site skin will be active whenever you’re logged into your account on any device.

To use a site skin to hide a particular work:

  1. Find the work ID. The work ID is the number in the URL immediately after /works/
  2. While logged into your account, go to archiveofourown.org/skins
  3. Select “Create Site Skin” (or edit your skin if you’re already using one)
  4. In the CSS box, type .work-000 {display: none !important;}, replacing “000” with the ID of the work you want to mute
  5. To mute multiple works, use a comma-separated list: .work-000, .work-111, .work-222 {display: none !important;}
  6. Save or update your skin. If it’s new (or if you weren’t already using it), you’ll also need to select the button labelled “Use”

If you need help creating or using skins, filters, work searches, or any other AO3 feature, please contact Support.

Can I permanently block a tag or have a persistent filter?

Unfortunately, it’s not currently possible to save a set of tags or search exclusions directly on AO3, although you may be able to find third-party tools or site skin instructions to help you do this. AO3 doesn’t have those kinds of built-in persistent filters: every time you open a new search page or works list, the filters will be reset. However, if you run a search using filters, you can bookmark the results page in your browser. The bookmarked page will keep the same search and filter settings when you return to it later.

What if I have more questions about offensive content?

PAC follows a strict confidentiality policy. Therefore, while you are welcome to ask general questions in the comments of this post, we will not give information on specific cases, publicly rule on a work, or update you on the status of a report you have already submitted. Comments on this post that discuss specific works or users will be removed.

For more information, you can read our TOS FAQ on offensive content vs illegal content.

If you are still uncertain, you can comment below or submit a question through the Policy Questions & Abuse Reports form.

Day at COSI

Today I got up and had breakfast and coffee. Then I showered and dressed, and [personal profile] mashfanficchick and I and Winnie and Theo went to COSI, the children's science museum.

We had a really fun time. I took Winnie and [personal profile] mashfanficchick took Theo and we mostly went our separate ways. First Winnie and I did the Star Wars exhibit, then Life and the Progress. We ended up in Gadgets, where we stayed for the remainder of our time there. It was a lot of hands on doing things.

Anyway, then Dani picked us up. Theo wanted to go home, and sp we dropped him off, and the rest of us went to a really nice park. It's designed to be inclusive, accessible for the handicapped. It is really nice.

After that, Dani and [personal profile] mashfanficchick went to Trader Joes and I took Winnie to Barnes and Noble. I bought a book, because you can't go to Barnes and Noble without buying a book and I got one for Winnie because it would be cruel not to get her one when I got myself one.

Then we went to Skyline Chili and I had Cincinnati chili for the first time, a five-way. It was delicious. I loved it.

Then we came back. Been trying to get Theo to bed ever since. I hope to Team with the FWiB for a few minutes now.

And I just did.

Oh, RK texted, he took care of my pets today and all is well.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. The science museum.

3. Barnes and Nob;e.

4. Got the third in the Godkiller series.

5. Friends.

6. Cincinnati chili.

and now it's different things....

[personal profile] jennlk
but still some same ol' things.

LCCB is still far more freeform than I like. Every summer, I wonder why I play the summer schedule. DM is concerned about our stage comportment, but doesn't do a damn thing about the sprawling layouts with random people way far away from other people who mostly play the same part. But people seem to enjoy the concerts, so I guess that's why I keep playing....

Sup is doing the "why is this not done yet" queries, and my response is "because TW and HandymanDan haven't gotten back to me (or you) to schedule. *You* poke them...." BC is finally up to a trek into the basement to see the status down there, and OMG there's a lot of work to be done. No more than there was (less, actually, as I've taken the recycling in). Somebody else needs to take the rubbish. Other somebodies need to schedule TE and HD for a day of moving big stuff. OTOH, the AC is now working -- something in the compressor needed to be replaced, so it was and now it works. Just as well, as we are now in an "if you don't need to breathe outside, don't" portion of the summer. (Canadian prairies are on fire, and we get the smoke. yay?)

Early last week, I moved the main plants from the deckside garden to their new home. Then it got hot for a couple of days, and then it rained for about 18 hours, so they're well watered in. The East garden is very appreciative of the weather - everything is blooming! Peonies, Lupine, three shades of pink daisies, three very different irises (white, dark purple, yellow & bronze), and bright yellow paintbrush. And some scattered magenta & white & purple carnations.... It's been a few years since everything in that garden has flowered this profusely. There are some spring bulbs in there that I need to move, because they don't bloom before the shasta daisies around them get tall, so they're hard to see. If I move them to the new garden, we'll be able to see them!

On Thursday I testified before the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform at a hearing titled “The Federal Government in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.”

The other speakers mostly talked about how cool AI was—and sometimes about how cool their own company was—but I was asked by the Democrats to specifically talk about DOGE and the risks of exfiltrating our data from government agencies and feeding it into AIs.

My written testimony is here. Video of the hearing is here.

Report on the Malicious Uses of AI

Jun. 6th, 2025 02:41 pm
[syndicated profile] bruce_schneier_feed

Posted by Bruce Schneier

OpenAI just published its annual report on malicious uses of AI.

By using AI as a force multiplier for our expert investigative teams, in the three months since our last report we’ve been able to detect, disrupt and expose abusive activity including social engineering, cyber espionage, deceptive employment schemes, covert influence operations and scams.

These operations originated in many parts of the world, acted in many different ways, and focused on many different targets. A significant number appeared to originate in China: Four of the 10 cases in this report, spanning social engineering, covert influence operations and cyber threats, likely had a Chinese origin. But we’ve disrupted abuses from many other countries too: this report includes case studies of a likely task scam from Cambodia, comment spamming apparently from the Philippines, covert influence attempts potentially linked with Russia and Iran, and deceptive employment schemes.

Reports like these give a brief window into the ways AI is being used by malicious actors around the world. I say “brief” because last year the models weren’t good enough for these sorts of things, and next year the threat actors will run their AI models locally—and we won’t have this kind of visibility.

Ohio Day

[personal profile] silver_chipmunk
Yesterday as I posted I made it successfully to the airport, through security, and onto the plane and to Ohio. I was picked up by [personal profile] mashfanficchick and Dani. We then went and did shopping at Target and Kroger, and then went back to the house where the kids Theo and Winnie, and John were waiting for us.

Also there were the two cats, Moo and Jiji, and the dog, Moose. Fun all around!

Today we went to Target again to get the new Switch which was just released, and which Target had limited supplies of. We got there with only two left in stock!

After that we spent the day in the house, they were playing with the Switch, and [personal profile] mashfanficchick and I hung out and read with them in the living room.

There was a brief but drenching downpour at one point.

My Earthlink email was not working, it was receiving mail but not sending, so I switched to gmail to keep in contact with the FWiB.

At around 7:30 I Teamed the FWiB, until 8:00 when I called Middle Brother.

Played with Moose for awhile, now getting caught up here.

Gratitude List:

1. The FWiB.

2. Friends.

3. Fun times.

4. Cute pets.

5. They got the Switch in time.

6. Bed soon (I got very little sleep last night)

May 2025 Newsletter, Volume 200

Posted by Lute

I. 200 NEWSLETTERS

This month marks the 200th edition of the OTW Newsletter! Starting in February 2012, the newsletter has consistently provided updates on committees across the OTW. Over time, the newsletter’s format has grown and shifted, settling into the format used today.

If you’re curious, older newsletter editions can be found on AO3 News and the OTW website! Thank you so much for supporting the OTW and our projects. Here’s to many more!

II. ARCHIVE OF OUR OWN

Policy & Abuse is currently running a weekly spotlight series about the AO3 Terms of Service. These news posts have been highlighting various nuances of AO3’s policies, and Policy & Abuse has been coordinating with Communications’ News Post Moderation subcommittee to answer follow-up questions in the comments.

AO3 reached 15 million fanworks in May! Communications published a news post to celebrate.

Also in May, Accessibility, Design, & Technology deployed a few enhancements related to username and password changes, as well as fixed some longstanding bugs in tag sets. Systems is preparing to mount new servers, after which they’ll be able to get them up and running for AO3.

Open Doors announced the import of Homosapien Press: the publisher of multi-fandom fanzines such as Samurai Errant, Homosapien, and Pure Maple Syrup. They also completed the import of Slash Advent Calendar and Snow Lands. Lastly, they launched a way for archivists and publishers to designate a Fannish Next of Kin to take over collection management post-import.

In April, Policy & Abuse received 2,734 tickets, while Support received 3,003 tickets. Tag Wrangling wrangled just over 490,000 tags, or approximately 1,100 tags per wrangling volunteer.

III. ELSEWHERE AT THE OTW

Fanlore’s annual Fanlore Bingo Challenge is in full swing! This year the event is running from June 2 to June 15, and the bingo is beach themed. All Fanlore visitors and editors, new and old alike, are invited to participate!

Fanlore also celebrated May with a themed month: Creature Feature! Their editing chat on the Fanlore Discord server was a big success; thank you to everyone who joined. You can check out Creature Feature highlights on Fanlore’s Tumblr.

Translation’s recent recruitment led to the addition of a new translation team for Irish! User Response Translation’s first ever recruitment has also concluded.

Transformative Works and Cultures continues to seek submissions for their upcoming special issue on Latin American Fandoms. The deadline for submissions is January 1, 2026.

IV. GOVERNANCE

Elections announced the 2025 Election Timeline in coordination with Communications and Translation. Candidates will be announced on June 22, and the deadline to become a member for voting is June 30.

Development & Membership is continuing to send donation gifts from April’s Membership Drive. They’re also starting to work on membership queries for the 2025 election and related mini-Drive in June.

Board, with the help of the Board Assistants Team, held a public board meeting on April 26, 2025. The meeting had 74 attendees, and Board answered 10 questions live and 7 questions asynchronously after the meeting. Meeting minutes are available on the OTW website.

Board also approved the creation of the Organizational Culture Roadmap workgroup, continued work on Crisis Procedures and Paid Staff Transition projects, and met with the Cybersecurity Delegate to discuss their report and next steps. The Board Assistants Team continued work on multiple ongoing projects, including updates to the Board Discord moderation guidelines, OTW roadmap goals, and non-profit training.

Lastly, Board announced the resignation of Zixin Zhang as a Board Director. We wish Zixin all the best in her future endeavors.

V. OUR VOLUNTEERS

Volunteers & Recruiting conducted recruitment for three committees this month: Fanlore, Finance, and Open Doors. Volunteers & Recruiting also began a large-scale project regarding their procedures on inductions and removals. This project aims to ensure documentation is consistent across all roles in the OTW, focusing especially on tools managed by Volunteers & Recruiting.

From April 21 to May 18, Volunteers & Recruiting received 154 new requests and completed 149, leaving them with 36 open requests (including inductions and removals listed below).
