amplificathon

the_mane_event, a multifandom gift exchange for all things hair-related, is seeking an emergency pinch hitter for a participant requesting both fic and podfic! Podfic must be of a work that is minimum 500 words, does not include the recipient's DNWs, and fits one of the requests, meaning that it includes one fandom, one ship, and at least one freeform or optional tag requested.

You can view the pinch hit here, which also has instructions on how to claim the pinch hit.

Happy Wednesday!

I'm taking search offline sometime today to upgrade the server to a new instance type. It should be down for a day or so -- sorry for the inconvenience. If you're curious, the existing search machine is over 10 years old and was starting to accumulate a decade of cruft...!

Also, apparently these older machines cost more than twice what the newer ones cost, on top of being slower. Trying to save a bit of maintenance and cost, and hopefully a Wednesday is okay!

Edited: The other cool thing is that this also means that the search index will be effectively realtime afterwards... no more waiting a few minutes for the indexer to catch new content.
