Still thinking about Yuletide

You know what helps with the pre-assignment jitters? Wine, and writing research papers. 

So today, via [personal profile] senmut, this post by [personal profile] elf on Yuletide changes was pointed out to me. I'm not sure I agree with all of it, but it's definitely worth a read. 

ETA: as usual, [personal profile] wistfuljane brings the cogent commentary; I highly recommend This Is Not a Love Song. It also contains links to the commentary the vidders wrote about the vid I mention next, which is vital to read. /eta

On the happier side, if you haven't seen the One Night Fandoms vid by [personal profile] thingswithwings and [personal profile] eruthros, you totally should, because it is made of love and totally represents the best of the Yuletide experience. 

And finally, [personal profile] naraht's How to Have Fun at Yuletide should be required reading for the challenge.

OH MAN NARAHT'S! I think I read that and liked it then, but I had forgotten how awesome it is.

Also the vid! I've showed it to every person in my family who dared to ask what 'yuletide' meant when I said I was doing it. IT'S EXCELLENT.

I em>may be a tad overexcited about yule.
