Four things:

1. How queer is fandom? Specifically HP fandom? I hang out in such disparate parts of it, and am also not terribly social in it until recently that I still can’t figure it out. Like do I know the 20 queer Potter fans? Or is it statistically similar to the general population or is it gay gay gay gay gay?

2. Chronic illness and fandom. What’s up with that? Is this our escapism? Or are we just home more because we have crap wrong with us? Or is fanfiction, like comedy, all about pain? I’ve always wondered about this, but I suppose I never asked before, because even with the MVPS, I never really considered myself part of the club until this celiac bullshit.

3. Speaking of celiac, I’ve gotten really sick of carrying around big bottles of wheat-free soy sauce and the like. So I bought a bunch of cobalt blue 50ml bottles and jars and stuff, so I can stylishly (and geekily) have safe condiments wherever I go.

4. The moment at least some of you have been waiting for: Facilis Descensus Averno is updated.

Lots of gay folks in fandom, that's for sure. And lots of straight. Lots of young women, lots of 40-something young at heart women like myself. And a few men big on the HP love.
