bluesky character limits in some cases.

submersible begins its bid for longest-duration visit to the Titanic,

It's very odd how I seem to have read or seen far more of the works
that have been around for decades than works where I need to have
read them in the last year. I blame the Thor Power Tools decision.

Not a one. I've heard of a couple of them, I don't own any, I didn't
even bother to download the Hugo voter's packet that year so I don't
know which of them were nominated for the Other Award. (I wish I
could say that I knew in advance that Chengdu's Hugos would be a
shitshow, but that wasn't the case. I think the packet was very late
getting released and I just didn't bother.)

I read the prequel, and might yet read this.
