Sorry, guys, it’s been kind of hectic, so you get another “Life hacks with Mickey” posts. In addition to jobs that can be varying levels of fulfilling and satisfying, from very to not at all, there are also the portions of real life outside of work that you need to take care of. Housework, shopping,… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #487 – Balancing IRL and Geekery
So, I mentioned earlier, that I would talk about that Polygon article, Gaming’s Toxic Men Explained. Monday night, I sat down with the Geek Husband What Rules and watched Hannah Gadsby’s comedy special, “Nanette,” on Netflix (trailer at link). Ok, so I’m going to spoil some of the comedy special, but I need to in… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #486 – What do a Female Australian Comic and Toxicity in Gaming have in Common?
Well, substantive posts. If you add in all the short news updates, and everything, I passed 500 posts ages ago. I’ll blog about that Polygon article about toxic masculinity in gaming for Wednesday. But still, I’d like to do something nice for my followers and supporters. I mean, you guys are great. You read my… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #485 – How Does One Celebrate 500 Posts?
Yeah, I have a bunch of stuff I want to at least mention, that I don’t really want to do full posts on, either because it’s rehashing shit I’ve rehashed before, or it’s just kind of insignificant. 1. James Gunn getting kicked off Guardians of the Galaxy 3 and the MCU in general. Ok, look,… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #484 – Random Stuff that Doesn’t Quite Deserve a Full Post

This morning the Martian emerged from his bedroom and told me he had tried to watch it, and lasted… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #483 – Pet Peeve #482472043572034598
Ok, as far as difficult video games, I understand that the Animal Crossing games are somewhere between beating toddlers at hand-eye coordination, or outrunning sloths. This does not change the fact that I do love them. They help sooth some of my anxiety. But for the last four iterations of this stupid game, I have… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #482 – Moments of Triumph
Sadly work begins with a W and therefore did not fit in my alliteration scheme. So, once again it is time to be a pasty northerner when the temperature climbs above my favored 75 degrees Fahrenheit. When all around me are transplants from fairer climes chirping about how lovely this is, and isn’t it better… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #481 – Summer, Stress, and other Stupid Things.
How many of you were subjected to Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus, as a child? I have no idea if it’s a particularly American thing to inflict on kids, but I suspect so. Anyway, I’ve talked about this before, in the last year even. It is ok to exclude racists, misogynists, and just… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #480 – “Yes, Virginia, it is ok to exclude jerks.”
Ok, not too late. And I managed to keep it from wrecking my very good, totally awesome day. I’m just saying, any day when you get sleep until noon, shop leisurely, and come home to a fantastic grilled dinner, is a damn good day. Also, Wonder Woman bralette. Target. I’m just saying. The XL fits… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #479 – The ArenaNet Fiasco
