Apparently guess "a day or two" means "just over a week" for me. I operate on Valve Time™.

Over a year ago, I promised to come back and dump my entire backlog if certain conditions were met. Much to my surprise, they were, within less than a month. And yet, it's taken me this long to honor my promise. Why is that?

Well, at first it was just me procrastinating, like always. I also had a big trip coming up and wouldn't be able to upload anything for two weeks, and figured it was better to wait until that was over so there wouldn't be a gap. But then, in November, something huge happened. The #MeToo movement. Suddenly, the thing that had pushed me and many others to swear off this site in the first place was a hot-button issue. I'd feel like an asshole if I just waltzed back right in in the middle of that, especially if there was just going to be another blow-up and mass exodus.

But for the most part, the movement never spread to the furry fandom. And at this point, it seems to have mostly petered out. I'm not happy about that, but there's only so much one can do in a world that seems more and more on the brink of complete societal breakdown. Of the people who abandoned this site, some have already come back; others fled to Tumblr, a site there's no way in hell I'm supporting after they were caught trying to actively stifle conversations about Net neutrality; and others have just sort of dropped off the map entirely.

I bring all this up because I'm sure there are still some out there who will think less of me for not sticking to my guns and staying away. And that's fine! I applaud your ability to put your principles above everything else, and I sincerely hope that brings good things your way in the end.

Oh, and just in case anyone cares, I finally got around to setting up some folders. So now it's easy to track down specific submissions if you're interested in that sort of thing. I couldn't really think of any use for them beyond sorting everything by what characters are in them; let me know if you have any ideas.
