So, I was blithering at the Geek Husband What Rules about Marvel Heroes the other night, and talking about how much fun Gambit was to play, and I was getting ready to start playing Cable for awhile. When he said, “I don’t know why Gambit is such an unpopular character among dudes. His power is… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #292 – Do girl cooties make characters unpopular?
Yeah, I know. I missed a whole week. I generally do my writing on the weekends, and schedule the posts. But last weekend I got lost in a fog of Marvel Heroes. Seriously, guys, I stayed up until 4 AM both nights, and then got up and started playing again. In my defense, they did… Read More Geek Girls Rule! #291 – Hellcat
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. Yeah… Ok, I may have had a teeny Diablo/Diablo II problem during Grad School. And by teeny problem I mean, I nearly failed… Read More Geek Girls Rule #287 – What has the Geek Girl What Rules been doing instead of blogging?
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
