What amuses me is that one of the articles she apparently plagiarized was about ferrets. Ferrets.
Mal: Take your people and go. Captain: You would have done the same. Mal: We can already see I haven't.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
Not just any ferrets, Anne, Black-Footed Ferrets.

Endangered black-footed ferrets, no less.
This might be my favorite Yuletide story this year: [link]
Because it's perfect Max Headroom, perfect voices and a plot that's all commentary on vidding and corporate ownership of the media.
... well, okay, it's also Edison/Bryce, but it's not explicit, and the story does in fact acknowledge the age issue. Still, you could read 3/4 of the way through the story and get most of the good stuff.

So come, my friends, be not afraid/We are so lightly here/It is in love that we are made; In love we disappear
It's really well done.
Unfortunately, I couldn't get over the Edison/Bryce.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
but your avocado may vary.They are words, but I don't quite understand them in this order.
Endangered black-footed ferrets, no less.I should have realized, when I was reading this story earlier, that we'd have the best commentary on it.

Always Anti-fascist!
Writing your own stuff is harder, JZ. Especially in a genre not replete with throbbing members and stuff.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Speaking of which - am I the only person that didn't know some dickhead had set up his own journal and been posting Thamiris's posts and pretending they were his? And her fucking bio? And even stealing comments she'd written to other people and using them to comment on other people's journals? I mean - what the fucking fuck?
This I found profoundly offensive. I'm delighted to hear his ass got canned in the end, but I still want to drop a tonne of bricks on his head. Jackass.
On a much cheerier note, though - holy crap, I cannot adequately express my love of Audiofic. All of you should be out there recording audiofic right now! Yes! So that I can listen to it! Yes!

Fay, some lovely soul (circadienne, who wrote that awesome Lewis & Clark story for Yuletide) recorded my latest SPN story & it's up on Audiofic. I can barely express how awesome it is to have an ebook of my own story on my iPod, particularly one read with a Kansas accent. So. Very. Cool.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Huh, Fay, it's funny--I thought that was why Tham was on your mind the other night, because of this plagiarism bollocks. I didn't realise you didn't know otherwise I would have mentioned it.
'Suela, I loved that story too. Though I really wanted to know what happened as they got to know each other better.
