Browncoats, Scoobies & other Whedonites 12 years, 5 months agoDid any of you hang out on buffy fansites back in the day? Who remembers how horrible the buffy.com chatroom was?

That’s hilarious. I’d never heard of that site; I was thinking more about the fansites that existed when the show was still on.

I hung out on The Bronze message board! It was one of the first places I ever admitted my queerness to anyone other than my cat. Aw, so many memories!
I’m watching “Restless” right now. Love love love that ep.

Science Fictional 12 years, 5 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.

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.
