i picked up my life exactly where i left off 1000 years ago

I'm in a tumblr comicbook RPG and one of the Youths has informed us that the professor in the university course she's in has assigned them to read up on RaceFail. 

Which is, in a word, surreal.

I know it's been just over twenty years since the whole imbroglio went down (twenty! YEARS!) [ EDIT: lol it's ten years but who can tell what time is anymore, not me ] but man. I look at that Fanlore entry and it's still vivid, and reading all those names, dear to my heart even now, brings back what it was like at the time. How new these conversations were in social media and online fan-spaces, and where we're at now.

I haven't posted on here in donkey years, and when I stopped it was because I was so burnt out -- I needed to take that break. Every time I come back, though, I remember what a pivotal time this was in my personal development.

Anyhow, that's all. Love to all you gorgeous creatures. <3

Oh, if we're going to get feelings about it, it's been a solid five years since last spring.

I honestly felt like we should have done a history or edited volume or something for the ten year anniversary but I was too busy at the time to ramrod something like that.
