Omnivorous Atheist/Skeptic queer geeks 12 years, 6 months agoI don’t feel ostracized, but I’m glad to meet more atheists on this site. It seems like a lot of lesbians are insufferably evangelical if you happen to get on the subject. I’m kind of a hippie though, I eat stuff like tabouleh and quinoa and I smoke a lot of weed and wear tie-dye sometimes. I hope that’s ok, I like geeky stuff like Fringe and…[Read more]

I love quinoa and tabouleh too! And things like tofu chili. I’m just also into bacon and pancakes. How do you have your quinoa? I just discovered it a few weeks ago, I’ve been thinking about learning to cook it.
-
The way I like it is cooked in chicken or mushroom stock. You can eat it hot with some pepper or cayenne or have it as a cold salad with veggies in it. I like it with red and yellow peppers, cucumber, and maybe olives. It would probably be good with curry but I’m really, really allergic to curry so I haven’t tried it. It goes very well with spice though
-
That’s a good idea. I was also thinking as a bed for something tomato-based and Mediterranean-y. With tzatziki on the side. Mmm, tzatziki.

I haven’t been able to figure out quinoa is yet, let alone how you actually use it
-
quinoa is a grain, you can eat it like rice or make it into bread and pastry. it’s good, it tastes a bit nutty
-
Oh and it’s pronounced KEEN-wa

Quinoa is delicious, as is tabbouleh, falafel, tofu, etc. I eat ALL foods. Quinoa is a great sub for rice or couscous in any recipe

Science Fictional 12 years, 6 months agoI’ve read Stranger in a Strange Land and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress, both of which I LOVED ..due in no small part to Heinlein’s positive portrayals of polyamory.
Unfortunately he did have some *cough* RIDICULOUS views of women.
The only Asimov I’ve read is his short story The Last Question, which leads me to believe I MUST READ MORE.-
If you can get your hands on it, I highly recommend the short story collection ‘The Edge of Tomorrow’. It’s collected fiction (and a few non-fiction essays) by Asimov about science and scientists. It has The Last Question in it, as well as couple of his other really popular short stories like Nightfall and The Ugly Little Boy, but it also has a…[Read more]

Added to my Goodreads queue! Unfortunately I still have TONS of school reading to do first :(

Yeah, the misogyny thing upsets me, but the polyamory thing makes me happy, and meh. So many feelings :/ The Last Question is one of the more recent Asimov pieces I’ve read, I mainly devoured his work when I was younger. TLQ gave me effing goosebumps, you guys I <3 it. And "The Edge of Tomorrow" sounds fantastamazing as well. Short stories FTW.…[Read more]

Did you read the uncut edition of Stranger? I think it is a better book. And right on with the appreciation for polyamory. Heinlein, I think, tried to portray women as having great strength, but sometimes he was just made of fail in his writing. I actually find the positive portrayal of poly to be one of the main reason’s I like Jordan’s Wheel of…[Read more]

The uncut version was SO MUCH BETTER. I understood it way more than I did when I read the ending of the first one, which made me go “What the HELLLLL” really emphatically while on a roadtrip with my cousins, and they just didn’t get it.
“HE’S AN ANGEL?! HE’S A MARTIAN! WTFFFFF”
“Shut up Kat”
-
Ha ha ha! I haven’t read the cut version, but from what friends have said it sounds…lacking. Did you know there is an actual Church of All Worlds? I hear they’re not as active as they used to be though.

Robbie is super sad! A lot of people talk about how is work isn’t very emotional, but I don’t think those people have read Robbie, or The Ugly Little Boy.
