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.”
Lets talk about the dudes on Brooklyn 99. I talk about this show a lot because it is one of the very few mainstream shows I watch with any regularity. When it first came out, I was all, “It’s a cop show by the guy from Lonely Island? Hard pass.” But the Geek Husband What… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #476 – Studs, Duds, Pranksters, etc…
So, there’s this thing happening, where a bunch of sad, pathetic dudes get some sort of thrill by harassing women off the internet and away from “their” fandoms. So sad. Seriously, I’d pity you if you weren’t so vile. And not vile in an interesting dark villain way. Vile in the way most evil is… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #474 – Fun is not a Zero Sum Game
Sunday we went to see Deadpool 2. I loved it and totally get why other people didn’t. There were an awful lot of dick jokes. Vanessa gets fridged at the beginning. An awful lot of dick jokes.

So I used one of my credits to get this and start listening to it on one of our 3 hour… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #466 – Review: Nnedi Okorafor – Who Fears Death

Guest post by Indie Game Designer and founding member of New Agenda Publishing Misha Bushyager. I’m just back from Dreamation, a lovely con in picturesque Morristown New Jersey, hands down one of my favorite cons consistently. I get to reconnect with so many of the people I usually only get to interact with electronically. Saturday… Read More You Were Missed – Guest Post by Misha Bushyager
Ok, I would like to provide some commentary for my fellow Mayonnaise Americans who may be less than aware of a lot of the discussions surrounding race that I have made a point of finding and eavesdropping on in order to learn. This, therefore, is to be considered a White Person’s Guide to Conversations in… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #443 – More Thoughts on Black Panther
As if anyone needs me to elaborate, but Black Panther and Avengers: Infinity War. Black Panther sounds fantastic! The previews have all been amazing. The cast is incredible, and so many POC and WOC. SO MANY!!!!! I have not seen this much excitement for a film since they leaked John Boyega’s character in The Force… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #440 – The Two Movies I’m Most Excited About
No, really. I would like some fucking answers as to how a company whose biggest properties were invented by a bunch of Jewish guys winds up employing the market share of racist, arguably antisemitic, jackholes. The latest is the stellar human being who is currently drawing Cable, calling Hitler the ultimate SJW (Social Justice Warrior).… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #438 – What the shit is going on at Marvel?
