I'm therienne on DW, LJ, and AO3.

So it appears that somehow, on Friday, a raccoon snuck into the garage while the door was open, and became trapped when it was closed.

We didn’t open the door until this morning.  

Do you know how much damage a raccoon can do in 48 hours in an enclosed space?  ALL OF IT.  ALL THE DAMAGE.  It looked like a BOMB had been dropped.  All the wires had been eaten (our first clue something was wrong was the remotes didn’t work), all the shelves had been pulled off the walls, everything on the shelves was everywhere, the bike was a tragic victim, I’m pretty sure the tires were chewed right through.  The car was scratched to hell, I think it might have ice skated along the top in between swinging back and forth from the power cords up there. There was about 20 feet of styrofoam piping and all of it had been chewed into half inch pieces.

Also?  RACCOON POOP.

Ten years ago, in August 2005, we premiered Walking on the Ground for Vividcon’s Challenge show. The theme that year was “Milestones” in honor of the 30th Anniversary of (fannish, live-action) vidding. In 1975, Kandy Fong set a slide show to music with still-shots of Star Trek, and an art form was born.

That art form changed a lot over the next thirty years, and that’s what we wanted to do here - vid our take on vidding history.

Rewatching this today, we wonder if the context and meaning still make their way through clearly; it’s always hard to know, with something like this. If you’re interested in a more detailed look at what we were shooting for, a full list of clips, and why we chose them, they can be found in the post we made on the subject back in 2005.

Anyway, enjoy! We hope to put up our entire back catalogue of vids on Tumblr and Youtube this fall, to help inspire us to keep going make more vids (maaaaan are we sloooow).

The Archive does not currently have a standalone mobile app available for download in any app store. If a third-party app or website requests your AO3 login information, please proceed cautiously and be aware that you are doing so at your own risk.

This means that the OTW has no control over things like troubleshooting any AO3 apps. It also means we have no control over what might be done with information collected via any AO3 apps.

However, I’d like to take this opportunity to remind everyone that AO3 already has many features that mimic what an app might do:

1) Fanworks may be downloaded in mobi, epub, pdf, and html format for offline reading using an e-reader or e-reader app such as kindle or kobo.

2) AO3 has been designed to be mobile-friendly and work well with virtually all mobile browsers.

3) If you don’t like the default display of AO3, there are site skins you can use (and make yourself!), both for the mobile site and the full site.

4) If you use the AO3 site (both mobile and full), you can login and have access to your account, including features like private bookmarks.

Again, please be careful if you’re asked to submit your AO3 account information to a third party. If you think your account has been compromised, change your password as suggested above, and contact support or abuse if necessary.

Justice Kagan's top Spider-Man jokes from today's patent case

"What we can decide, we can undecide," she writes, "but stare decisis teaches that we should exercise that authority sparingly."

Dear tumblr,

I know the venn diagram of comic book nerds and law nerds is a thin sliver, but the fact that no one on my whole dashboard discovered this today and yelled about it made me a little sad.

And a little happy, too, because I get to share it with you.

In a patent case between Marvel and a guy who created what later became a Spider-Man toy, Justice Kagan pulled out all kind of Spider-Man references. Including, but not limited to, the best cf. citation of all time.

And what else have I learned from this? That according to The Supreme Court Review, she is a massive comic fan and her favorite movie is The Avengers.

Shit, guys, now I have to reconfigure my whole list of favorite lady justices! 

Regardless, I hope you enjoy.

DMLA News:

Review: The Dead City and the Dark Earth Below by Martha Wells

Publishers Weekly: Stories of the Raksura, Vol. 2: Wells (The Serpent Sea) fleshes out her Books of the Raksura series in this strong short story collection. As readers follow a shape-shifting Raksura called Moon through a series of encounters, plenty of vivid descriptions help newcomers get up to speed. Moon is always at the center of any conflict, whether it’s learning the secrets of a long-buried city (“The Dead City”) or defending his adoptive Raksura community of Indigo Cloud from a foe that can’t be seen (in the longest and best entry, “The Dark Earth Below”). The Raksura world features innovative and alien creatures; Wells thinks far outside the humanoid fantasy box. The line between animal and person is drawn extremely thin, and the power structure among the races resembles nature more than it resembles any human civilization. With a strong sense of adventure, horror, and mystery, this is an enjoyable read for fantasy fans seeking a new series to sample.

So this is happening in London. The people are protesting the Conservative party being back in power. Apparently BBC News isn’t reporting it and Twitter removed the #ToriesOutNow hashtag from the trending section
