GO BUY THIS BOOK RIGHT NOW!!!!! Ahem. Allow me to collect myself. Ok, Seanan McGuire is one of the very few authors that I will go out of my way to buy the first week their books come out. I can often be heard to lament that she doesn’t constantly have more books coming out… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #203 – Review: Discount Armageddon by Seanan McGuire
This post is going to be primarily a picture post, and if you can help me track down the people who should receive credit for any comics that might be misattributed, that would be awesome. So, from the early days of GGR, I’ve been bitching about the sexist treatment of female heroes, particularly about the… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #202 – The Backlash Against Female Superhero Costumes
So, the Geek Husband What Rules got Batman: Arkham City for his birthday. The gameplay is excellent, even for someone like me who has trouble controlling the camera. It’s a huge sandbox of a world, well imagined. It’s beautiful. There are tons of missions to undertake, major and side missions. As with Arkham Asylum there’… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #201 – Arkham City
I love horror movies, and I don’t watch them often enough. Really, I don’t. Part of that has to do with the fact that the Geek Husband What Rules really doesn’t like them, and I’m kind of fussy about my horror. I’ve got no use for ‘people being shitty to other people’ horror films, as… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #200 – Horror Movies, Hooray!

Anne McCaffrey, author of the Pern books among many others, passed away Monday night. She was 85. When I met her at DragonCon, she was confined to a wheelchair, but still feisty as all get out. When I started to cry, she scolded me: “Don’t you cry! Damn it!” Instead I laughed, and then thanked… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #197 – Anne McCaffrey Saved My Life
So, the Geek Household What Rules does not currently have cable. There are many other things we’d rather spend our money on, and really all that happens when we have cable is I waste entire days watching terrible movies on Syfy, or Criminal Minds marathons on A&E. Between the lack of cable and the… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #196 – WWE Survivor Series and Chikara Pro Wrestling.
I hate it. A lot. The Geek Husband What Rules is playing Call of Duty: Modern Warfare, and in several levels you are attacked by dogs and have to kill them. Every time one of them yelps, I flinch. I noted this on my personal Facebook, and a friend replied that he found it interesting… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #195 – Violence Towards Animals in Videogames.
