Das sympathische Maskottchen "Nürnbird" des WorldCon-Bid Nürnberg in 2028 ist leider noch namenlos. Mailt dem Veranstalter doch einfach mal ein paar Vorschläge. #sfcd #nuernbird #nuremberg2028 #worldcon #sciencefiction
Das WorldCon-Bid für Nürnberg 2028 @nuremberg2028.bsky.social hat jetzt übrigens auch eine Präsenz bei Bluesky, der wir vom SFCD e.V. natürlich gerne folgen. #sfcd #bluesky #nuremberg #worldcon #sciencefiction #convention
So raise a glass (real or virtual) to shamrocks, stories, and the wild, wonderful possibilities of Irish SFF. Sláinte! ☘️📖✨

It's Cosplay ThrowBackThursday! Taking the Wayback Machine to WorldCon 1961 (aka SeaCon). Stu Hoffman and Sylvia Dees; photo by Ben Jason. Most cosplay at the time was based on SF/F novels & short stories! #cosplaythrowbackthursday #cosplayhistory #worldcon #1960scosplay #tbt

This #worldcon bid and our friends at Explore Edmonton are committed to equity, diversity, and inclusion.
We believe that our city’s strength lies in its diversity. Edmonton is a place where different cultures, backgrounds, and perspectives come together to create a vibrant and inclusive community.
FYI: I have stood down as bid co-chair due to the fact my health sucks and I think the bid deserves better.
I will be staying on as an active committee member, am very proud of how far we’ve come, and am very confident in Vix and Jo Van’s leadership for the rest of the journey.
