Time just seems to vanish.

Last week was my birthday and I was totally going to make a birthday post, and then just... didn't.

So, belated thank you's to everyone who sent me birthday wishes. <3

And I got fanart from Lee (for my Seeker 'verse), which is very shiny. Not used to fanart. 🥰🥰🥰🥰

Although speaking of fanart, then Promethia and I also had a stunning piece of fanart created for The Song of Rowland, so truly my cup currently overfloweth. (Technically the art work is spoilery, although not hugely.)

And fic-wise, then I posted Chapter 5 of Crystal Gets A Boyfriend on my birthday, and then Chapter 6 the week after! (This will probably never happen again. There is usually a month between any updates.)

But enough about me... Have a few links:

No more Disney!Who. 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

UK petition: Scrap the Bathroom Ban

And from the Good Law Project, please sign this open letter: Women in support of the trans+ community.

I feel that there were so many more things I was going to mention, but time has stolen them...

Database maintenance

Good morning, afternoon, and evening!

We're doing some database and other light server maintenance this weekend (upgrading the version of MySQL we use in particular, but also probably doing some CDN work.)

I expect all of this to be pretty invisible except for some small "couple of minute" blips as we switch between machines, but there's a chance you will notice something untoward. I'll keep an eye on comments as per usual.

Ta for now!

AWS outage

DW is seeing some issues due to today's Amazon outage. For right now it looks like the site is loading, but it may be slow. Some of our processes like notifications and journal search don't appear to be running and can't be started due to rate limiting or capacity issues. DW could go down later if Amazon isn't able to improve things soon, but our services should return to normal when Amazon has cleared up the outage.

Edit: all services are running as of 16:12 CDT, but there is definitely still a backlog of notifications to get through.

Edit 2: and at 18:20 CDT everything's been running normally for about the last hour.
