Hold My Chicken 🎉<p>The technical writer in me keeps wanting to edit any <a href="https://blorbo.social/tags/introduction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>introduction</span></a> post down to a bare minimum, but I'll try to go against my instincts and let myself be a *little* wordier. 😅</p><p>I am a Fairly Old Person who's been hanging around various fandoms for a few decades. Socialist, queer, kinky, neurodivergent, somewhat disabled.</p><p><a href="https://blorbo.social/tags/StrayKids" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>StrayKids</span></a> (<a href="https://blorbo.social/tags/skz" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>skz</span></a>) started taking over my life in early 2024, and I'm happy about it. I love all 8 of them to an unhealthy degree, but I'm a touch more ridiculous about <a href="https://blorbo.social/tags/Seungmin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Seungmin</span></a>, <a href="https://blorbo.social/tags/BangChan" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BangChan</span></a>, and <a href="https://blorbo.social/tags/I_N" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>I_N</span></a>. </p><p>Sometimes I'm not very clear about the lines between reality and my RPF OT8 polyam shipping feels.</p><p>My main fannish activity these days is clipping salacious bits from the many thousands of hours of published skz video content. Maybe one day I'll start editing the clips together into silly videos, but for now I just hoard and gloat over them like a delulu dragon.</p><p>If I ever start publishing fannish videos, they'll be on my youtube channel:<br>:youtube: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/@lookitmychicken" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">youtube.com/@lookitmychicken</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>Other fannish hyperfixations (past and present, major and minor) include:<br>- <a href="https://blorbo.social/tags/ModaoZushi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>ModaoZushi</span></a> &amp;

Cory Doctorow<p>I first read Novik&#39;s fiction last year, devouring her nine-volume <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/Temeraire" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Temeraire</span></a> series, a retelling of the <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/NapoleonicWars" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NapoleonicWars</span></a> in a world where dragons are real. The Temeraire books have it all: swashbuckling hand-to-hand combat; grand, sweeping battles; a huge cast of beautifully realized characters; a brilliantly wrought geopolitics, and a through-line that is fantastically *tight*, plotted to a fare-thee-well:</p><p><a href="https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/08/temeraire/#but-i-am-napoleon" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">pluralistic.net/2023/01/08/tem</span><span class="invisible">eraire/#but-i-am-napoleon</span></a></p><p>13/</p>
Cory Doctorow<p>I just had this experience and I am still basking in the warm glow of having had such a thoroughly fulfilling imaginary demi-life for half a year. I&#39;m speaking of the nine volumes in Naomi Novik&#39;s <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/Temeraire" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>Temeraire</span></a> series, which reimagines the <a href="https://mamot.fr/tags/NapoleonicWars" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>NapoleonicWars</span></a> in a world that humans share with enormous, powerful, intelligent dragons.</p><p><a href="https://www.naominovik.com/temeraire/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">naominovik.com/temeraire/</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p><p>2/</p>
