BTW: do you think the concept of “stretch goals” could be used in other areas of life? Like, I don’t know, in the pub? “Mine’s a half pint of Thatcher’s Gold please, Tash! If you get me a double measure of Laphroaig with no ice but just a bit of water in a separate glass, you will unlock a conversation about using time travel to go to the park with twenty copies of your dog.” Anyway. Strange Horizons!
Earlier: WorldCon 75 Report, including the Strange Horizons tea party. The tea was excellent and the biscuits were, in every sense, mint.
