The Great Library of Autostraddle 11 years, 11 months agoIn the last few days I’ve finished up a couple of books I’ve been reading:
‘In the Peanut Gallery with Mystery Science Theater 3000: Essays on Film, Fandom, Technology, and the Culture of Riffing’ eds. Robert Weiner and Shelley Barba – This was fun. I loves me some MST and you could tell the people who wrote these essays do too. The book…[Read more]

We Love Documentaries 11 years, 11 months agoThere’s going to be a showing of a doc called ‘Miss Representation’ on OWN (channel 188 on Dish Network) tomorrow at, like, 11 am. It’s about the current representation of women in media and what that means. I know they interviewed Margaret Cho for it and probably dozens of other awesome people as well. Also, Bitch magazine recently reviewed it…[Read more]

The Great Library of Autostraddle 11 years, 11 months agoI just finished reading ‘Dies the Fire’ by S.M. Stirling and it was AWESOME! It’s the first book in a series, but it’s a self-contained story; it doesn’t end on a cliffhanger or anything.
