I just sent an email out to test this.
And yes! It's true. "Medieval" came back correctly.
I'll just jump in my time machine, go back to the twelfth century, and ask the vampires to postpone their ancient prophesy for a few days while you take in dinner and a show.

If I only had a brain...
I was only able to duplicate the problem if I sent mail through a Yahoo group. Simple me-to-me Yahoo mail didn't get bitten.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Anyone remember that Tyr/Harper story? The really good, long one? Um. Lots of Nietzchean/Hum sex? And Nietzchean backstory.

Buffy fandom is weird. I did a little database maintenance this morning, and a bunch of people sent me e-mails screaming about the archive not working.
Really, dude, other archives go down for weeks! All I'm asking is for 20 frelling minutes! Go make some toast before I beat you about the head with my Darth Maul action figure!

You should make this the page people see when you're futzing with it.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
Blimey. They should fear the wrath of Shrift.
Tyr - he's the jaw-droppingly beautiful man - I mean, head turning, rugby-tackle-him-reflexively-upon-first-sight-and-start-humping-his- unsuspecting-self-like-a-bitch-in-heat-before-you've-realised-that-you're-in-the-middle-of-a-cocktail-party-and-nobody-has-even-introduced-you-to-him-yet level of Beautiful? Yeah? (Although I suppose in those circumstances one could always beg cultural differences, and claim that in the UK it's called a CockTail party for a reason, and whoops, you mean this isn't an orgy, how dreadfully embarrassing, ho ho ho, could somebody possibly pass me an h'ors deuvre? And oh, look over there, a juggling elephant! - at which point you drag the man into the nearest possible closet with muttered offers of no-strings blowjobbage and get him naked as fast as humanly possible). 'Cause I don't watch Andromeda, but I happened across it this pm whilst frantically vaccuming the cat to avoid essay writing, and sweet weeping mother of God, he could make me give up girls entirely.
I don't understand how they ever get anything done on that ship, actually, because surely everyone's first thought upon waking must be: "Hmm, consciousness. Must go get Tyr naked and have hot monkey sex." Or possibly: "Hmm. consciousness. must go get Tyr naked and have hot monkey sex, and then punch the captain for being an irritating git." But apparently other stuff happens too?

Hee. I'm very, very tempted.
