A few logistical notes to consider for future Hugo ceremonies:
It wouldn't be a bad idea for future Hugos to invest in a trained transcriptionist at $60/hr or whatever rather than relying on risible autocapture.
Some of these folks type 120 wpm with exceptional accuracy.

How Do You Find Redemption?
If you've paid even vague attention to the news recently - or even just social media - you may have been struck by the seemingly unending tidal wave of men being called out for assault, harassment and generally awful behavior. This is inherently a good thing; people who've been coasting along while having gotten away with heinous acts are increasingly being held accountable for what they've done. We, as a society, are finally waking up to the fact that so much of what we thought of as just 'business as usual' is, in fact, fucking horrible. And there are more
