There are a few planned panels that are looking for mods or additional co-mods. If you are interested in helping out with any of these, email panels@contxt.club ASAP (or by Saturday, May 22nd).
Panel title: Period Typical Homophobia (Meta)
Current mod: cuddyclothes
Description: Fandoms set In 19th & 20th C. England: How do you like your historical slash? Reflecting the dark realities of history or ignoring them or combining them? Fanfic in Sherlock Holmes, Jeeves and Wooster, Raffles, and other fandoms tackle these issues in many different ways. Let’s discuss queer literature of the time, fanfic tropes, AUs, and what needs historical slash fulfills in writers and readers.
Panel title: Putting the Trans in Transformative (Meta)
Current mod: Lanna
Description: AUs give us all the power. What do we do when we take our canon cis characters and make them trans? What changes do we make to them and to their lives when we do it? What comments are we making when we do it? How have trans AUs changed over the years?
Panel title: We Love to Hate the Ones We Love (Meta)
Current mod: queercore_curriculum
Description: From Pride and Prejudice to Harry/Draco, enemies-to-lovers is one of the greatest romance tropes of all time. Let's compare our favorite enemies-to-lovers ships and discuss why we find this trope so irresistible in fandom and beyond.
Panel title: The Trek Continues (Single fandom)
Current mod: none
Description: 55 years ago, a space adventure show popped onto the screen, and we’re still getting more from it. How do the new Star Trek shows, Discovery, Picard, and Lower Decks reflect the eras in which they were made, and how are they in dialogue with each other/other Star Trek media?
Panel title: Women of the Expanse: Naomi, Avasarala, Drummer, Bobbie, Clarissa (aka Peaches) (Single fandom)
Current mod: krytella
Description: The Expanse has brought us a group of complex, competent women of color, with interesting storylines and the agency to make decisions that move the plot. IN SPACE. Did I mention the F/F shipping potential is extremely high? Whether you’ve seen all five seasons or this has piqued your interest and you just want to learn more, come talk about the badass ladies of Earth, Mars, and the Belt. Discussion about men limited to the last 10 minutes of the panel.
