And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Ohio has food year-round.

This will NEVER not crack me up.

I ran out of bourbon and the only grocery delivery slot available was early-morning on Sunday when NY state law says you can't deliver alcohol.

Susan, I am so sorry for your loss.

See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

Random plea: Dana, shrift, now that I'm falling down this rabbit hole, can I ask for recs on any good juicy thinky pieces on dS? I'm not a massive fic reader, which makes me a bad Buffista, but I do dearly love me some nice rich lit-crit-caliber analysis of a TV show, which makes me a good Buffista after all.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I'm not sure where to find due South meta these days, nor can I think of somewhere you could check. I can ask on Twitter.

Oh boy. Meta may be lost of the mists of time on mailing lists and Livejournal. I just checked Fanlore for due South meta, and the results were sparse: [link]

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Yeah, the Last Great dS Period was....a little over ten years ago, during the Second Ray Wars. So some stuff might be on Dreamwidth and Livejournal, but it's definitely not thoroughly indexed or archived.

The due South Noticeboard on DW is still pretty active, and has just under 200 posts tagged meta:

There's a due South Meta Tumblr that actually has a great deal of excellent meta, but of course it's on Tumblr, so you have to deal with....Tumblr.

And truepenny on DW did a watchthrough up to 4x02 back in '08 (during the Second Ray War and the brief but fervent flush of new fans that period brought to dS). truepenny is still an active/current DW user, so they would likely answer comments, even on super old posts like these.

jinx w/ Dana!

btw Dana, I would love to catch up on RNW with you in whatever TV thread it belongs in. I have ... a lot of feelings. And thoughts.
