We in the Fanlore editing community have finally gotten around to creating a page for KotLC, but none of us are very involved in the fandom. I've been told you're the person to ask for help.

Hi, I apologize for taking so long to get back to you! I would LOVE to help with the page. It's very kind that someone mentioned me specifically! I haven't had much energy to spare lately, but I was thinking about hopping in to contribute to that page for Stub September if I can. And I would encourage any other KotLC fans who are interested to check it out and consider contributing as well!

[plural-culture-is]

hyperfixated plural culture is almost crashing your computer regularly on research some of you only occasionally do regarding the history of the term fictive and the overall history of online plural presence and having some headmates take every opportunity to try to get people interested in these subjects (I am one of them)

who named Long Johns? where did he come from?

a gift: he was called Swimmer circa 2001 (example)

Interesting! You’ve found a site I’ve never seen before, and that’s incredibly rare, thank you.

To answer your question, I can’t quite remember, was it me? Was it @what-goesaround-comesaround ? Was it @freeasfishes ? Was it @queenofbrooklyn ? The name Long Johns came out of a pun in our group chat about three years ago because long johns are the common name for long underwear in america, like he’s wearing. It’s always fun to find out new names!

I'm thinking about like compiling a list of instances of queer women using sapphic as a personal label (or variations) (because I cannot stay on one topic) and was wondering if you'd have anything right off

i don't have any, but if i come across any, i'll send em your way! (also, thank youuuuuu for all of the mspec sources you sent me!!!! forever grateful!!!!)

Thank you for the submissions, I added them to the list.

I wanted to ask if you (or again, anyone else) has read x+y by Eugenia Cheng and if being trans plays a major role? Some reviews suggest there's very little, one review says it is taken into account somewhat. I would prefer to keep the focus on books focussing on trans experiences than cisfocussed explorations of gender.
