Happy Saturday!

I'm going to be doing a little maintenance today. It will likely cause a tiny interruption of service (specifically for www.dreamwidth.org) on the order of 2-3 minutes while some settings propagate. If you're on a journal page, that should still work throughout!

If it doesn't work, the rollback plan is pretty quick, I'm just toggling a setting on how traffic gets to the site. I'll update this post if something goes wrong, but don't anticipate any interruption to be longer than 10 minutes even in a rollback situation.

Flip, Ngozi Ukazu, 2025 graphic novel. I started this once and didn't get very far but I started it again and I guess just had to be in the right mood because I was really into it. A body-swap story about a Nigerian-American scholarship girl at a ritzy private school with a crush on a rich white boy. Ukazu does great work with her expressive, appealing faces (she's the author of Check Please, and it's neat to see her bringing the style and skills she developed there to this new project) and tells a solid story with some funny and touching moments. Are we going to get this onto the Hugo ballot? Probably not, but is it way better than at least half the likely ballot? Heck yeah.
