Good morning, I’m was sitting here drinking coffee, eating Triscuits and chevre and wondering what the hell I was going to blog about today, when I started getting grumpy because I haven’t been able finish watching Season two of American Horror Story , because the Geek Husband What Rules is working graveyard shift on the… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #290 – Review American Horror Story Seasons 1 & 2
Ok, yes, I am a terrible, horrible person. I’ve been sitting on the first two collections since I got them from the author in November. This should also serve as your disclaimer that I got them from Kelly Sue DeConnick herself, so consider yourself disclaimed. Honestly, with everything that happened around then, I just wasn’t… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #289 – OMG! CAPTAIN MARVEL!!!!!!!!
Ok, I know we’ve all seen Black Milk’s stuff. Awesome geek themed leggings and swimsuits, and none of their stuff goes over an XL, which to them is someone with a 37 inch waist. They have a lot of really awesome stuff, so I think it would behoove us to lobby them to expand their… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #288 – Fat Fan Action Network: Black Milk Clothing
Well, let’s start with the biggest time sink. Marvel Heroes. Question: How does one make Diablo even MORE appealing to the Geek Girl What Rules? Answer: Let her play Hawkeye and Nightcrawler.

Ok, I’m not going to rehash everything that happened. You can read the Daily Dot article here for a round up, as well this other piece covering it (those links have more links, it’s a rabbit hole). In a nutshell though, some dude who doesn’t even belong to SFWA started up a petition to battle the… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #286 – What the Recent SFWA Trouble says about SF/F
Ok, I don’t know if I’ve ever actually iterated this here. I mean, I could look, but it’s my day off, I’m slouching around the house in leggings and an Avengers T-shirt doing laundry, so motivation is not something I’ve got much of today. And even if I have said this before, it’s been awhile… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #285 – My Stance on the “-Isms”: A public service announcement
Ok, so it occurred to me that in that post on Engaging Critically with Media, I could have backed it up a bit further, instead of throwing a bunch of jargon at you without defining it. I mean, I do this shit for fun, but not everyone views reading a huge book on how national… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #284 – Critical Analysis of Media a 101 Guide
So, I kind of dropped the ball and didn’t tell you all that you could have stalked me at RustyCon this weekend. It was pretty good. On the whole it’s a much smaller convention than NorwesCon, but it definitely had its high points. Watching the world’s tiniest Weeping Angel chase her brother, Eleven around the… Read More Geek Girls Rule!#283 – Panels at RustyCon
It dawns on me that not everyone out there has taken a slew of Literary Analysis courses in college while desperately trying to take enough classes to keep financial aid after you’ve run out of coursework in your own major. So, I thought I’d drop some words on you. Now, this isn’t to say that you have… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #282 – Engaging Critically with Media (Horror)
OMG! YOU GUYS, YOU GUYS, YOU GUYS!!!! I HAVE FOUND MY NEW FAVORITE MOVIE!!!!! I am not even kidding.
