I personally try to avoid being part of a “manel”, especially if it’s all older white guys like myself. It’s something I talk to the programming team about once I see the pre-con roster. But not everyone does it. 2026-09-01T11:43:12Z https://njump.me/nevent1qqsduya6r6t7l2rl28h47628d720r3ms7lfaspx9h56unfgqat3kwlczyrnmlmdf29e8yx3xzngycal8jdd9zupsgv5hfxvx8fk9s3ydys40c5dszzt From else!net.
