The War That Almost Broke a Classic Fandom — Fansplaining Blake’s 7 fans and actors mixed regularly at cons and on the pages of zines—until an anonymous letter changed everything.

Our first piece of the year is live—and it's a big one! With the recent release of the classic BBC sci-fi show Blake's 7 on Blu-ray, @scenicrailway.bsky.social looks back at the infamous 1980s clash between fans and creators that became known as the Slash Wars. 🚀 Read or listen to an audio version:

The smart cow problem is the idea that a technically difficult task may only need to be solved once, by one person, for less technically-proficient group members to accomplish the task using an easily-repeatable method. The term is derived from the expression: "It only takes one smart cow to open the latch of the gate, and then all the other cows follow."

didnt think i'd be able to write a new fic so soon but heroic age polar exploration got me in its clutches!!! who is haunting whom? find out! archiveofourown.org/works/621466...

Awoke in terrible pain this morning with puncture wounds on my sternum and Le Vesconte insisting upon being addressed as Los Feratu!

last time someone said this to me i recommended formula 1 and they were off to the races (pun intended) … dunno if that’s up your alley! but it’s great! many boys, much drama

You do not need to be an academic to visit an archive.

You do not need a degree to visit an archive.

There is no terrifying Don at the door grilling potential visitors.

If it's your first time, a nice archivist will help you.

It's our shared history, our preserved records. Go explore it.

thinkin about them today.. #myart #theterror

terror camp is this week :)

every time i see someone call spirk the oldest slash ship, i'm filled with the urge to go "☝️ actually the holmes/watson girlies have been here for a hundred years now", and i refrain because i know the natural conclusion of this game is "☝️ actually, gilgamesh/enkidu"

if i ever watch iwtv you will never catch me posting about it not once... from the outside it seems less like a tv show and more like some kind of virulent discourse brainworm

A photo of an old bottle with a label that reads: "Coca Wine: A Pleasant Tonic and Invigorating from Fresh Cocoa Leaves."

Coca wine was a popular alcoholic beverage in the 19th century. Each bottle contained approximately 6 milligrams of cocaine per ounce. One popular brand, Vin Mariani, was enjoyed by Jules Verne, Alexander Dumas, and Arthur Conan Doyle. Thomas Edison claimed it helped him stay awake! #skystorians
