The Great Library of Autostraddle 11 years, 10 months agoDIRT: The Quirks, Habits, and Passions of Keeping House is a collection of essays edited by Mindy Lewis about peoples’ (mostly women’s) relationships with dirt/cleaning. Some of the essays are funny, some are more poignant, and some of them exactly describe my feelings about grime. Also, I think you are guaranteed to find at least one essay that…[Read more]

Autostraddle Summer Book Club 2011 11 years, 11 months agoOk it’s definitely not summer, and it’s almost not 2011 anymore, but I did just finish reading “Fried Green Tomatoes” and for the life of me, I can’t figure out why I never read this book sooner. Sure, it’s not what you’d call “great literature” but it’s still a really good story. And it’s got lesbians! It’s also about the area I grew up in…[Read more]

Holy crap, I adore that book! Idgie and Ruth are one of my top literary OTPs! I think my favorite little bit from that book was when Ruth had her baby and someone in Idgie’s family declared that he looked just like Idgie! So adorable.

Baltimore / D.C. Autostraddlers! 11 years, 11 months agoHello all! I’m also pretty new to DC, but I was wondering if anyone might be interested in a last minute meet-up on Saturday? There’s a roller derby game at the Armory which should be a blast. If anyone’s interested, let me know!
-
Clearly I missed that Saturday meet up, but if you want to do one in the future, I’m down.

The Great Library of Autostraddle 11 years, 11 months agoI’ve finished a lot of books this week!
I just finished ‘The Elegance of the Hedgehog’ by Muriel Barbery today. This was among my prizes for coming in second in the Autostraddle summer book club and I lucked out! It was very good. A very solitary concierge in a building full of very rich people works hard to present an image of stupidity and…[Read more]

The Great Library of Autostraddle 11 years, 11 months agoI just finished The Last Man by Mary Shelley. Apocalyptic fiction is great! The book was mostly about how future England would deal with plague. [Side note: Mary Shelley did not spend a lot of time dreaming about what the future would be like. In another 80 years, we’re going to be right back in 19th century England.] I was more interested in how…[Read more]

The Great Library of Autostraddle 11 years, 11 months agoI’ve been busy reading in the past few days! Here’s what I’ve finished recently:
‘Reality Bites Back: The Troubling Truth About Guilty Pleasure TV’ by Jennifer Pozner – It’s a hilariously snarky, but serious academic take down of reality TV and it’s regressive, offensive ideas about women, people of color, and the poor. It’s putting into words…[Read more]

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]
