Swarm-bot

I kept misreading this as "Smarm-bot". Certainly gives it a whole 'nother meaning.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Has anyone read Burlesque and the Art of the Teese / Fetish and the Art of the Teese by Dita Von Teese and Bronwyn Garrity? Any good?

I have it. It's very pretty. The writing is on the frothy/fluffy side of girly, but it's a lot of fun. Of course, every time I look through it, I am overcome with the urge to start gluing Swavorski crystals onto things, but that may just be me.

I read it in B&N, and quite liked it. It is a bit fluffy, but sumptuous to read.

One of the local big name burlesque women teaches a burlesque exercise class. One of these days I'll get my ass up on a Sunday and go.

Always Anti-fascist!

I'm sort of a net addict. But I have little money and no hope of proficiency with firearms. Life had to give me something. "I was thinking of developing a drug problem, but that would be stupid."
