Is anyone still here?

I just watched the trailer for the Bionic Woman. Wow. Reasons this show looks like it was made for me:

- About a cyborg. A female cyborg. My people!

Remember when I was on my university's radio station last quarter during their segment on the internets?

The show is national!

I sound like such a smarty-pants.

The potluck was fun! It was on Lake Whatcom at a park I hadn't been to before whose name I've already forgotten, but it was on Electric Ave between Alabama and Lakeway. I liked it, nice swimming area and uncrowded. Will be back there for swimming, I think, and it was a nice easy bikeride ( Read more... )

I'm hosting the next issue of the Feminist SF Carnival on my blog on August 3rd. I haven't decided on a theme for the issue. I was thinking origins with posts that could be on anything from reflecting on how your feminism and geekiness came to intersect, tracing the origins of women in SF, or reflections on some of the old school canons in ( Read more... )
