Regarding research transports

Have I finally reached a critical mass of fannish enthusiasm such that I actually have the motivation to post? Let's find out!

Today a new Murderbot short story came out: Rapport: Friendship, Solidarity, Communion, Empathy, which is free to read at Reactor. It's 7.5k, set after Artificial Condition, and Murderbot appears only by implication, because the point of view character is one of ART's human crew members.

Everything else I have to say is spoilers, for both the short story and System Collapse. )

Italian Speakers Need For Yahoo Groups Rescue Project

 
In late 2019, TV, movie, anime, gaming, celebrity, music, and book fans assembled to save Yahoo Groups after Verizon decided to shut down the mailing list service. Approximately 300,000 fandom groups have been saved. The Yahoo Gedden project is working on identifying the fandoms of Italian language mailing lists and can use your help. We need people who can read Italian natively right now to help us identify the Unknown groups. You can work at your own pace and it is a low time commitment. Work is done on Discord, just reading the Italian group description and a few messages and summarizing the messages in English, maybe answering a question of clarification ("is it talking about X or Y?"). No software or other tools needed besides your phone/computer and access to Discord.
