Author love!!!! What are the 5 favourite fics you’ve ever written and why?
💚💙💜💚💙💜 Nonnie, know I am laying the gentlest of kisses upon your forehead and hugging you tightly.
Honestly though Nonnie, I enjoyed writing all of these for a variety of reasons. Each piece I've written holds a special place to me. Also please know Nonnie I cried when I got thise because i've been feeling a little blah about my writing but I went back and reread these and remembered why I loved them while I was trying to figure out which of my works i would add to this because damn it was HARD narrowing it down to five once I started rereading my stuff. So you know what people you should take the time every now and again to reread your own stuff!
In no particular order, here are my favorites I've written:
You Make Me Bold, You Make Me Strong: DCEU, Clois, NSFW.
Perhaps, she thinks, maybe she’ll get him to come once more for her. Though, she muses as she tilts her head, watches the way he pants, the way he’s gripping the sheets — doing his level best not to tear or damage them — she could probably squeeze two more out of him. Before calling it a night and letting him rest. Yes, she decides and shifts, widening her knees, getting herself more balanced, she’ll get two more out of him before letting him float without flying.
Why: Because Clark absolutely DESERVES to be railed by his petite wife and her collection of stap-ons! Like, come on! He's a good boy! He deserves to be rawed and turned into a crying, whiney, blubbering, over stimulated mess.
Didn't Know I Was Lost: Star Wars, Obikin, Modern AU.
No, no, he thinks and shakes his head before pinching himself harshly on his cheek. “Ouch,” he muttered to himself, opening his eyes as he ignored the sting. Swallowing, around the lump once again forming in his throat, he simply stares. Because Obi-wan was still there. Still wrapped up in a perfectly tailored suit and his long beige coat, sitting with no bag in front of his front door. Or both Obi-wan and Anakin both try to make a grand gesture, but only one of them succeeds at it. Also feelings are discussed.
Why: This was honestly a delight to write, despite the angsty bits of it. It kind of just poured out of me and was like my hands were possessed as the story just flowed onto the doc. Was also beyond fun to play around and pack in so much emotion to the only one bed prompt.
The Malfunction: The Flash, Coldflash, Modern/Model AU.
Because of course Iris had mentioned at the last family dinner that she had been asked to cover one of the hottest stories in Central. Barry just wishes he’d bothered to actually ask her which one because standing not ten feet from him is Leonard Snart, Barry’s ultimate celebrity crush and a personal hero of his. *AU where Len is a model and he meets awkward Barry, a tech at a photo shoot.
Why: I wrote this when I was dealing with some feelings about my body issues and this is what came out as a result of me just deciding to not give a fuck about other's opinions and being comfortable with myself! I specifically wrote it as coldflash though, because of Wentworth Miller, who's own statements about people commenting about his body, also helped me with mine.
I'll Be Your Guard Heart: TGM, Hangster, Shifter AU.
Jake only loses control when it comes to Bradley Bradshaw and he was okay with that.
Why: Because I needed Jake to be an absolutely petty, feral, over protective, possessive bitch that's hidden under a veneer of cocky asshole! Really though, it was fun to write. Fun to come up with. And it's been fun expanding upon! (because I am planning to add more to this universe eventually!) Plus it is my favorite thing I've written so far this year.
Uncovering the Meaning: The Flash, Coldflash, Soulmate AU.
“It doesn’t matter, Leo. The little freak wouldn’t love you anyway. No one could love you, boy!” Lewis taunted cruelly. Len felt himself flinch from the memory of his father’s voice from the nightmare that’d woken him up. He brought his left hand to rub at the deep scar on the left side of his chest, but after a moment, he simply laid his palm flat against it.
Why: This was the first thing I'd written in years that was longer than 2k, so it holds a special place in my heart. Plus I met my bestie @asexual-fandom-queen through writing this!

"Instead of highlighting the character's Jewish origins, 'Man of Steel' features a Randian Christ-figure who commits genocide against his entire race, then causes multiple mass casualty events."
I apologize in advance for the incoming rant but I am sick and tired of sitting quietly for this relentless bullshit and at some point, enough is enough. I'm not naming the individual I'm quoting because I'm not interested in starting fights. This is my space and I'm venting a collective decade of frustration and anger.
Noun. Randian (plural Randians) A follower of Ayn Rand.
God damn, y'all just can't help yourselves, can you? You just slurp up every bit of nonsense from all those puffed up "YouTube Essayists" with god complexes from 2015 and take it as fucking fact.
Not to mention, y'all cannot seem to let a random baseless accusation from a disgraced sexual predator go. That's him! He's the one who started it! The very one to fling the first scrap of "Zack Snyder is a Randian Objectivist who hates Superman and is poisoning the DCEU!" bait out into the twittersphere for the rest of the ravenous bloggers to jump on. I refuse to take anyone's treatise on the modern superhero myth seriously if this is the depth they'll stoop to in the middle of their piece.
Snyder made one single offhand comment about maybe adapting 'The Fountainhead' (for its aesthetics, mostly) years ago and now he's a sexist racist fascist objectivist and the root of all evil.
Objectivism: "The exceptional people among us have a divine right to decide our fate and we should not oppose them."
Does that sound like the message of any of his DC films? Movies that end with speeches about heroes wanting to be on the ground to do good in crises and how good humanity can be despite its faults? What about MoS specifically, where the ultimate immigrant allegory struggles to find his place in a world that does not accept him yet still fights for and protects humanity because this world is his chosen home?
Not to mention, where the fuck is this genocide-committing Jesus Superman? Clark t-poses out of the Black Zero one goddamn time while looking sadly back at his dad because Snyder is a visual filmmaker with a penchant for dramatic shots and everyone loses their fucking minds. He goes to the Lutheran church he presumably attended with Martha & Jonathan as a child to seek the counsel of Father Leone because Clark Kent is not canonically Jewish (may the memory of his Jewish creators be a blessing). There's stained glass iconography of Christ in the background at one point because it's a Christian church in middle America. Clark himself never once espouses any religious lines or strict beliefs. Nor does he position himself as a "Christ-figure", either through himself or via the story??????? He doesn't want the responsibility that comes with putting that suit and cape on. But he does it anyway because he understands the stakes when shit gets real and he refuses to let his adoptive world pay for unwittingly bringing the worst remnants of his old world here.
Also, Clark only kills one person: Zod. The U.S. military "bombs" the Black Zero with the starcraft that brought Clark to earth in order to re-open the Phantom Zone and send Zod's forces (the pack of militaristic extremists known as the Sword of Rao) into it. Given what we know of the Phantom Zone in various canons, that's a fate almost worse than death. Then, after being given an ultimatum that either he dies or Zod will, he makes the impossible choice that will haunt him the rest of his life to save a human family moments from being obliterated by Zod's heat vision and kills the general. Nowhere in this catastrophic battle did he "commit genocide against his entire race" (did everyone forget that he himself is the Codex's host and therefore the living possibility of Krypton's rebirth?) or "cause multiple mass casualty events".
I understand that the scale of fictional damage was perhaps a touch more realistic than the near identical scale featured in all of the Avengers movies. It's fine if it's not your thing. Move along. That discomfort still doesn't give you enough leeway to point the finger at a rookie Superman on his first day on the job and say "all that destruction and death was his fault". He tried to take it out of the city! Zod—a vastly more experienced military leader with blind genetic fanaticism on his side, by contrast—refused to allow it. His goal was the annihilation of earth and as much collateral damage as possible (preferably the entire human race). Clark had to stand between humanity and that with zero combat experience and no clue he'd be forced into a no-win scenario to stop the carnage.
I'm tired. It has been ten years. I'm so fucking tired. Can you people give it a rest? None of you are the ultimate authority on superheroes and positioning yourselves as something dangerously close to that with these twitter threads and blog treatises and reviews full of big words in nerd outlets only poisons the fandom well further.
You are allowed to dislike things. You aren't even required to justify that dislike. What you aren't allowed to do is declare something objectively bad based on nothing but your own subjective reaction to it, then invent criticisms that aren't even applicable to the thing in question.
The day we lost the ability to differentiate between "I did not enjoy this media so I guess it wasn't for me" and "I did not enjoy this media and therefore NO ONE SHOULD BECAUSE REASONS I WILL INVENT FROM SECONDHAND HEARSAY" is the day media literacy ceased to exist in pop culture.
#snyderverse meta#extremely long and ''toxic'' rant#this literally does not matter because superheroes are fictional and do not matter#but this director and the world he created matters to me and i am sick and tired of being attacked from every angle for defending it#stop drinking the kool aid#zack snyder is not the boogeyman under your bed or waiting to jump out of your school locker#he is a fucking nerd who made some capeshit movies and everyone collectively lost their fucking minds about it#can we move on now?

DCEU Donna and experience
Unlike her comics counterpart, my DCEU Donna is just at the beginning of her story. She doesn't have the experience of someone who's been out in the world, and saving lives since she was young. The Amazons in both mediums are so different that it does have an impact on who Donna is a person, and her development. Even if we take out the impact of @inkdreamt's Diana dealing with Godkiller (separate post on that at some point) these are things that stay consistent regardless of partner.
Her Existence
Taking inspiration from both The Circle, and Wonder Woman; Warbringer, Donna's birth, much like Diana's in the aforementioned source material, was a mixed bag with the Amazons. The fact that Hippolyta (and by extension Magala) attempted to do what only the Gods could do and brought a girl to life on Themyscira, did not sit well with some. While for a majority of the island, another baby was something to celebrate, something to love and bring hope to. A small group were against it. They feared retribution because of what their Queen chose to do without telling anyone until it was already done. They saw the child as a threat to their beloved home and sisters. Some were resentful that she'd create another child at all after the Gods had already given them Diana... or perhaps because now there'd be a second child calling the queen "Mother," rather than themselves. Whatever their reasons, Donna was the subject of whispers among this little band. They, in claimed affection, called her Pyxis- a shallow little clay pot to hold jewelry or cosmetics. Small, ornamental, fragile. Meant only to look pretty… useless otherwise.. if Donna lost a race, it meant a lot more than if Diana did- if she got into childhood mischief- they’d use it to affirm their preconceived notions. The group was careful with their taunts- nothing that couldn’t be explained as simple teasing, begrudgingly tolerating this second child out of love for their Queen. But it did feed into Donna’s need to compare herself to her sister and the imposter syndrome. Her need to prove herself.
Diana Leaving and Death
The arrival of Steve Trevor and the Germans to their island not only lead to Diana's growth, but also had repercussions for Themyscira as a whole. Elven amazons died on the battle at the beach, including General Antiope. Donna barely had time to even start to processes that before Diana's packing and telling her to look after their Mother. By nightfall, Diana too was gone. Off to do very important world saving things, Donna understood- but it was still weird, the moment her sister crossed the barrier it almost gave Donna chills due to their sister link. So, Donna stayed... she supported her grieving Mother and sisters... threw herself into funeral prep and kept busy, because she promised Diana. Some part of her liked helping, liked being useful, but it did take it's toll on her. Donna just kept telling herself it was all going to be okay when her sister came home. Even if she'd crossed the barrier, Donna was certain, Diana would always find a way back due to their link. Only... no matter how many times she'd go out and wait on the beach or the cliffs for her, no matter how many times she'd tried to reach out and past Diana's mental walls... Diana didn't come back like she'd said she would. Diana didn't keep in contact with her... For a century Donna was left on her own to figure things out and pick up the pieces... and she didn't even get an explanation. She could feel Diana's pressance out there, but couldn't pick up on her emotions or even try to talk to her. Her Mother would not hear anything about Donna going to look for Diana either. They'd argue and both just end up crying at the end of it. Just when things were starting to settle into a new normal, the Mother Box awoke. Due to her lack of combat experience and the threat whatever was going on with it posed, she was told to stay inside. An order reaffirmed later when everyone was rushing to their horses. She knew it was bad when even the little group warned her to stay in her room, no matter what she heard. A hundred and fourteen had died in the battle against Steppenwolf, a majority of the bodies needed to be pulled up from the sea for their funeral pyres. Donna was one of the ones to dive for them. The process began again, but on a much larger scale this time as a lot of the Amazons, including Hippolyta were still reeling from the deaths prior. So, there she was back at square one, supporting Mother and sisters... helping rebuild parts of their home that had been destroyed.
When Diana does come back into Donna's life, she's a whole mix of emotions... angry, relieved, terrified of being left alone again. Part of her (that sounds suspiciously like Tekmessa's group) thinks Diana was happier without her. Even when she convinces her mother to allow her to go with Diana for a time... the fear of Diana getting sick of her is there. Of course, Diana is trying to make up for lost time, to protect her little sister now that they're together... Donna is aware of that to an extent. She's genuinely excited and curious and eager to explore the world that's kept her sister for so long. She's taking pictures and she's learning and making friends... but she's also stubborn and hates being babied. She wants to help others too. She was helping at home after all, so why not here, like Diana does?
Her Powers
Due to the unprecedented and unpredictable nature of her birth. Donna did not have access to a lot of her powers until after she crossed the barrier. Unbeknownst to her, her mother had Magala put a power blocker/dampener on her when she was born for her safety as well as Diana's. Donna only had access to her baseline powers equal to those of the other Amazons, her link with Diana that could not be blocked, and her mimicry. The Blocker was meant to come off gradually when she was old enough to learn to use them but it kinda fell through the cracks with everything that happened. It was not removed until the Enchantress kissed the forehead of her greatest triumph goodbye. So, When Donna's in Man's World, she's having to learn how to use these new abilities for the first time, unlike her comics counterpart.

Batman: the Brave & the Bold
—
This is a concept for a DCEU adaptation of Batman: The Brave & the Bold.
———
This is a concept for Batman: The Brave & the Bold. Set in the DCEU.
Cast:
- Batman/ Bruce Wayne - Scott Adkins
- Damian Wayne/Robin - Carter Rockwood
- Dick Grayson/Nightwing - Taylor Zakhar Perez
- Barbara Gordon/Batgirl - Leslie Grace
- Alfred Pennyworth - Jeremy Irons
- Ra Al Ghul - Oded Fehr
- Talia Al Ghul - Nadine Nassib Njeim
———
This is apart of the DCEU franchise. Which will Mostly be Batfamily films. This is the first film in the first wave of trilogies. The second one in this series is Batman vs Red Hood
This film take inspiration from a few different comics and ideas from the old DCEU. In this universe we pick up with an older Batman. Robin has been dead for a few years and his partnership with Dick Grayson (Nightwing) is nonexistent. Batgirl has just proven herself as a ally to him and has been his crime fighting partner for about nine months at this point.
The film is an action film,with family moments throughout it.
Batman and Batgirl receives a call from Alfred while patrolling in the Batmobile. About a double homicide in the Diamond District and hurry to meet Gordon.
We cut to a temple in the Mountains where we meet a young Damian Wayne training with several league members. Over watching is Talia Al Ghul. Her Father Ra appears and tells her that his time is coming, Talia tells her father that he is far to young which he dismisses and tells her to prepare him. Talia has shift in her demeanor and decides in that moment she has to get Damian away from her Father’s influence. We she a brief montage of her pack and later she takes Damian from his room in the middle of the night. Most battle through the league. She barley escapes and puts Damian on a ship and gives him a bag and tells him to find Bruce Wayne in America. And the ship leaves as more league rush towards Talia and there gone in the fog.
We see as Damian arrives how hard it is for him to adjust to his new life with his father. He wants to return to Talia but Bruce cannot find her not is he sure she’s alive anymore. Damian struggled and lashes out at everyone Bruce, Alfred and even Barbara. Who takes it upon herself to try and show Damian how normal kids live life and it backfires because she isn’t able to convince him. She calls in a friend. And Dick Grayson arrives to see the famous Batman’s son.
Barbara and Dick try and show Damian things he didn’t have in the league. Like ice cream, pizza and other things kids his age enjoy meanwhile, Bruce is trying to find Talia while also trying to figure out how to be a good parent to Damian. Throughout all this Ra Al Ghul as returned to Gotham and has set his plan for revenge in motion.
By the time Bruce figures it out Ra as released bio weapon on parts of the city and goes to his blimp to stop him from destroying the city. Batgirl and Nightwing go to City Hall to stop his assassins from killing the Mayor and Gordon. Feeling that he should help Damian takes the Robin suit and goes out to help. He first saves two civilians from assassins. He learns that not everyone is an enemy. After that he helps a police officer evacuate an apartment building making his way to help his father defeat his grandfather.
Afterwords Bruce makes Damian Robin full time with training and showing more restraint.
In the last scene,we see Talia watch Batman and Robin from a nearby rooftop while there patrolling and she smiles to herself before returning to the shadows and that’s where this first film ends.
In a post credit scene we see a figure emerging from the rainy shadows and arrives at the gates of Wayne Manor. The figures turns out to be the Red Hood. It cuts to black before he say, “Surprise Old Man, I’m Back.”
—————
I hope you liked this addition. It may be fun to do this little concept for the DCEU so if there are other ideas you have for this pocket universe let me know. 👍

Comics this week ?
rezonan asked: What did you think about Ultimate Invasion #1? I thought it was pretty good and just barely justified the 9 dollars. 6160 man so excited
A great week all around for comic books! How nice to read good stories featuring both of my two favorite guys, Superman and Hulk.
Superman #5 - Another great issue, particularly for Jimmy who came off cool and competent, loved the shot of him donning his own jet pack and flying off with Superman to save the day, that's my pal! Williamson managed to win me over on a Silver Banshee who isn't a villain (for now). I've been leery about "redeeming" villains lately. Don't really see the point since all it does is further cut down on Superman's Rogues Gallery when he desperately needs for them to get used more not less. Banshee and Jimmy are cute enough together, and Marilyn Moonlight seems cool enough to stick around and take Banshee's place, that I've decided to get on board. Really it was seeing Banshee wear a bow tie on a date night with Jimmy that did it, who can resist the bow ties?
World's Finest #16 - Enjoyed this issue more than the rest of the arc, the Green Arrow/Batman banter was funny.
Nightwing #105 - A fantastic art showcase for Redondo. Oh hey and Heartless does actually show up again finally, so credit to Taylor for showing he isn't just sitting around doing nothing.
Wonder Woman #800 - Picked this up just for King's story and I'm on board for his WW run. First WW issue I've read in ages that left me eager to get my hands on the next issue. Nice feeling to have with regards to WW, haven't felt that way since Rucka.
Superboy #3 - Interesting twist to have the Cosmoteers potentially be new villains for Conner rather than friends. Forcing Conner to fight an evil/amoral version of the archetypes he was teammates with on YJ is a cool creative decision.
Vigil #2 - Another great issue even if it leaves me with more questions than answers. Love getting details on Indian conspiracy theories, that's an aspect of other cultures that you don't get in Western textbooks.
Cyborg #2 - Dropped. Take a look at the list, at this point I need a book to either be great or have a personal investment in the character to justify the cost, and Cyborg doesn't check either box.
Black Adam #12 - What an odd, odd book this ended up being. A story all about how there is no redemption for Black Adam, greenlit for synergy with The Rock's movie which starred an Adam who could barely be called a "villain", now ends long after the Adam movie flopped and killed the DCEU. The Adam parts I liked a lot, the Malik parts I didn't enjoy anywhere near as much. Much like the movie, I don't see this book leaving much of a legacy, but Priest did at least write a believable way for Adam to transition out of his anti-hero era and back to being a villain. Will the next writers to tackle Adam acknowledge what Priest did? Maybe Waid will.
Ultimate Invasion #1 -
This was the good shit my fellow Hickmaniacs. Not HoX/PoX tier but absolutely reminding me of Hickman's Avengers and Ultimates. Of course I grinned at seeing "Earth 6160", perfect number designation, if that's the Earth which will be the one Hickman is using for the relaunch then this is indeed a proper reboot for the Ultimate line. Theory time: Maker chose this Earth because this is a world that doesn't have a Reed Richards. Hickman might even make it the Earth that Doom got his Sue from in Secret Wars, their origin had Dr. Franklin Storm in Reed's place, and I could see Maker wanting this Earth partly to spite 616 Reed for crying over that Sue on Battleworld. Maker's already prevented 6160 from having a Spider-Man, and it looks like he's going to prevent the other heroes from forming too. I'm dying to know what he's going to do to the Sue, Johnny, and Ben of this world if my theory is correct.
I predict that the ending of Ultimate Invasion will be 6160 getting rebooted to undo Maker's changes, and 616 Reed is going to fold Maker into this Earth's history somehow, rebooting him back to being Mr. Fantastic. The problem the Illuminati have with Maker is that they can't kill him and they can't keep him locked up, meaning they have to find another way to deal with him. Given this was kicked off in part by 616 Reed admitting he would like to erase Maker, I think the ending will be 616 Reed realizing that's the wrong approach and instead opts to try and redeem Maker. That would also explain rumors that there's going to be a lot more interaction between 616 and 6160 than there was with 1610. 6160 becomes Maker's prison, and the 616 Illuminati keep watch to ensure he doesn't fall back into being a villain again.
Incredible Hulk #1 - Shocker I know but I liked this. Great Southern Gothic atmosphere thanks to Klein's art, and PKJ is directly following up on Ewing while also taking advantage of the Banner/Hulk reset that Cates did. Seeing Betty under Eldest's control was surprising, I did not expect her to be in the first issue but I'm happy she's back. Eager to dive into this monster mythos surrounding the Mother of Horrors that PKJ is creating, Hulk vs. Man-Thing is a fantastic matchup that I don't think has ever been done before.
Scarlet Witch Annual - Orlando handled the MCU synergy very well. Agatha is straight up MCU-ified now, no real way to avoid that after the popularity of Wandavision, but he did a good job acknowledging Agatha's previous history with Wanda and at least tried to reconcile the differences between the two takes.
Avengers #2 - Plotwise this remains great, characterwise it's clear McKay is still finding his footing in terms of juggling the cast. Writes a great Black Panther though, so at least T'Challa is finally getting treated with respect. Too bad that only happens outside his solo.

WHAT AN ELECTRIFYING FILM⚡ Love the action sequences, the humor, the storyline and its easter eggs if you are an die hard Flash fan⚡ Between the VFX/CGI & the cameos, there was a few hits or misses on a few scenes mostly on the 3rd act, but nothing major.
• Sasha Calle was phenomenal as Supergirl!! She poured her heart and soul in that role. Hopefully they keep her in future DC films.
• Both Ben Affleck and Michael Keaton were fantastic as Batman! Both versions brought closure and a final bow to their historic Dark Knight in their respectful way.
• THE MAIN ACTOR⚡ Ezra Miller had outdone themself with their dual roles as the big screen's first scarlet speedster & its alternate counterpart. Miller's performance was excellent, blending humor and drama at the same time. Despite their personal controversies, Ezra nailed it as Flash.
• Along with the other fellow #DCEU alum, #KierseyClemons, #MichaelShannon, #AntjeTraue, #JeremyIrons (who did their characters justice in the film) with newcomers #RonLivingston & #MaribelVerdú, The cast was solid.
• Though Zack Snyder & Deborah Snyder had definitely brought the character himself to the big screen, Andy Muschietti & Barbara Muschietti along with Benjamin Wallfisch did outstanding work on this film.
• All in all, this film a grand, creative DC adventure made with a lot of care & passion. Does it have its faults, yes! A guilty pleasure, yes! But it never takes away from what makes the film great: its heart. A ELECTRIFYING action-packed ride through the DC multiverse that had left me a big smile on my face from start to finish. After 4 decades from first mentioned in the 1980s to almost 2 decades of development hell, this was worth the wait⚡️
So, go see it⚡
9/10⚡

”#can you imagine getting rid of the Batman AMT tag, #like a good number of my ideas are just based on amalgamations of the characters, #using a specific Batman media tag wouldn't make any sense, #and jfc would they just pack EVERYTHING Batman under a single tag??, #that would be a total fucking nightmare, #excluding DCEU alone has saved me so much time”
Regarding Fandom Trees & AMTs
Tag wrangling is, on the whole, a fluid process. It's meant to be, because the way language is used and the way tags are used change over time. We're the first to admit that we don’t always get it right, and that we do sometimes make mistakes despite our best intentions. This is why wrangling decisions are not set in stone and are reevaluated periodically as circumstances change or as new information becomes available.
In light of the impact that removing the Sherlock Holmes & Related Fandoms metatag has had, we have put that metatag back in place.
When it comes to fandom metatags and fandom trees, there is no 'one size fits all' approach that works for all fandoms. Consequently, we have placed a hold on all structural changes to fandom metatags, All Media Types fandoms (commonly called AMTs), and fandom trees while wranglers discuss the need for additional guidelines and adjustments to our approach regarding these tags going forward.
This hold will remain in place until tag wranglers have had ample time to fully reevaluate our fandom wrangling guidelines with the aim of making it easier for Archive users to find the content they’re looking for and filter out the content they aren’t. This guideline reevaluation process is something we are actively working on, but it will likely take some time to complete. We will update again once these fandom guideline discussions have come to a close.
Thank you for your patience and understanding.
(From time to time, ao3org posts announcements of recent or upcoming wrangling changes on behalf of the Tag Wrangling Committee.)
