ChatGPT for WorldCon: Controversy over the folks putting on the scifi convention using ChatGPT like a search engine. Their use of it seems 100% reasonable to me.

I can honestly say I never expected "Hugo Nominated Fan Artist" on my list! I am beyond honored. +1 for cross stitch and fiber arts! #fiberarts #crossstitch #hugos #worldcon #seattleworldcon2025 #seattlein2025

One last push: nominations for the Hugo close tomorrow night, and I think City of Roses deserves to be on the short list for Best Series. I mean, I'd say it's the best urban fantasy series you aren't reading, but then, I'm biased.

Thanks to @offby1 for leading the work on the Hugo, Lodestar, & Astounding Awards nominations and ballot voting system in use this year, NomNom. I used it yesterday and it worked so smoothly, with lots of little touches to reassure & inform me, and help me help celebrate the best of sf/f.
Chris started it in December 2023, for the 2024 Worldcon to use. Grateful for his efforts & for everyone who's contributed!

Final* update on my Visualising the #Hugos thing: now has a proper web page at https://zoeimogen.github.io/hugo-sankey/ which includes all the nomination graphs as well as final round voting.
Camestros Felapton has some more statistics covering the awards too, over at https://camestrosfelapton.wordpress.com/
*I may add second/third place runoffs at some point as well as previous years but all the copy-pasting has become a bit tedious for now.

@naomikritzer @clarkesworld And now that story has won a Hugo! Wonderful stuff. Might listen again this week. #Hugos #Glasgow2024

More than 300 fraudulent votes and 10s of thousands paid for them. Amazing.

Hey, I've revived my moribund personal book review blog in order to post my thoughts on the Hugo Nominated 'Life Does Not Allow Us to Meet' novella by He Xi, because it requires a certain . . . vigour of expression to convey the strength of my displeasure that would probably not be welcome at other outlets.
CW: The words 'genocide' and 'fuck' appear frequently, in a variety of forms.

3/3 TikTok IS IN CHINA. What creative fiasco just happened w/China? THE HUGOS. (Hello, fellow SF people; you knew I’d get back to you!). For those still reading this who are SF fans and pros, the Hugos set off China to get super-upset at the US in ways other than “bad words”: trade (more of same), negotiations, creative endeavors (+ the old censorship). So TikTok has also, as of today, removed all licensed music. Coincidence? Goodbye to TikTokkers located in the US. #tiktok #hugos #china

2/3 More on TikTok … So, I fill out the forms for a Shop. I get to my address. It already knows I’m in the US & fills that in for me. City & State. I keep trying. It keeps not “seeing” them. I then realize it will only show me PROVINCES IN CHINA. I close it. I start from scratch: same again. A 3rd time: same again. 4th & 5th times: same again. So, it won’t let me start a Shop unless I’m in China. Why? Where is TikTok located? /next rock #tiktok #tiktokshop #china #hugos

I've been hearing about this Hugo Awards mess for a while now on social media, but this is the first article I've seen summing it up.
As Paul Weimer put it: “Censoring people based on what you think that a government might not like is completely against what the whole science fiction project is.”

Science fiction must escape from the dystopias it has trapped itself in.
We create the future we imagine, so it’s important to imagine what we desire.

Well, can't say I'm surprised in the slightest. If anything I'm surprised there weren't more stories like this sooner.
WSFS, like FIFA and the Olympics, need to take a country's record into consideration before awarding events.

Unsurprisingly, TikTok is also censoring this

Why not do something completely unexpected today—like, I dunno, nominate a story from Kaleidotrope for a Hugo Award? https://kaleidotrope.net/archives/kaleidotrope-2022/ #Hugos #hugoawards2023
