The image shows an interior view of a retail store from the year 1948, specifically February 29th. The setting is modern and spacious with large windows on one side that allow natural light to illuminate the space. In the foreground, there's seating area where several people are seated or standing around what appears to be changing room stalls draped in white linens.

The background reveals an array of clothing displayed against a mirrored wall, showcasing various styles for customers to browse through. The store branding "HUGO" is visible on top of this display, indicating it could be part of the Hugos department within Lord & Taylor's business location in Westchester. A chandelier hangs from the ceiling, adding an elegant touch to the decor.

The photo appears vintage and monochromatic, consistent with black-and-white photography common during that era. The Gottscho-Schleisner, Inc., reference suggests this photograph may have been taken by a professional photographer associated with documenting businesses of the time or for promotional purposes.

Och, das "#Hugos" in #BadOeYnhausen macht zu? Ich durfte ja eh nicht rein, weil ich zu alt bin. Aber auch wir haben am Wahlinfostand massive Beschwerden über Randale vor dem Lokal, zerbrochenes Glas in der Fußgängerzone und völlig unregulierte Öffnungszeiten herangetragen bekommen.

Der Betreiber hat augenscheinlich nicht entsprechend auf seine Gäste eingewirkt. Und Einsicht wird in dem Artikel auch nicht gezeigt. Nunja, im anderen Imbiss hängt ein großes Portrait von Trump ...

So what will you be in for when you log on for Writing the Occult: Belief TOMORROW, Saturday 6 September? A whole bunch of fascinating discussions about belief and speculative fiction, including this one with Jordan S Carroll

His book on science fiction and the alt-right—looking at who gets to control narratives about the future—may have just won a Hugo, but we’ve got Dr Jordan S. Carroll closing up our event giving us a primer on conspiracy theories. 🧵⬇️

ChatGPT for WorldCon: Controversy over the folks putting on the scifi convention using ChatGPT like a search engine. Their use of it seems 100% reasonable to me.

I have never wanted anything to win an award as much as I want Jenny Nicholson's "The Spectacular Failure Of The Star Wars Hotel" to win the Hugo award for best related work.

I can honestly say I never expected "Hugo Nominated Fan Artist" on my list! I am beyond honored. +1 for cross stitch and fiber arts! #fiberarts #crossstitch #hugos #worldcon #seattleworldcon2025 #seattlein2025

One last push: nominations for the Hugo close tomorrow night, and I think City of Roses deserves to be on the short list for Best Series. I mean, I'd say it's the best urban fantasy series you aren't reading, but then, I'm biased.

Hi folks! We're going be winding down this account from now on in favour of focussing on our Bluesky and Facebook accounts (search "GSFWC" to find us on those).

But before we go, here's a quick reminder to #Hugo voters that all the stories in our anthology #Gallus are eligible for Best Short Story - including tales by Hal Duncan, E.M. Faulds, Neil Williamson, Ruth EJ Booth and many more. Thanks for your consideration!

Thanks to @offby1 for leading the work on the Hugo, Lodestar, & Astounding Awards nominations and ballot voting system in use this year, NomNom. I used it yesterday and it worked so smoothly, with lots of little touches to reassure & inform me, and help me help celebrate the best of sf/f.

Chris started it in December 2023, for the 2024 Worldcon to use. Grateful for his efforts & for everyone who's contributed!
