The world is a hot mess and things are hard and y'all are out here sending us awesome things to publish, supporting us, reading the things, talking them up, nominating them for awards. This is just so neat. 3/4

We're now at the point where we have to check whether we published someone in the past or not, because there are so many names we can just forget. (And some folks we're like "wait, surely we've published them?! No? Well, here's to the first then!") This is glorious. 2/4
