So for my 55th (!!!WTF!!!!1!) birthday present to myself, I am starting a blog. Would anyone who wants to, please take a look at the layout and leave any advice for this total newbie in the comments? [link] I will take the advice and delete the post before I actually go live, so feel free to be as straightforward/detailed/snarky as you want. Thanks, mighty hivemind!
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.
Before I found y'all, I found Bitch magazine. After years of buying it at the newsstand, I ponied up and became a sustainer. For $5 month, I get my mag and my name is even in it! I find my name every month.
Anyway! "Feminist response to pop culture" strikes me as relevent to Buffista interests. They're doing a sustainer/subscriber drive right now to keep the magazine in print. Here's a sample post on their website on liking problematic media. [link]
Just putting it out there in case anyone wants to support what they do.

This is a really sweet story in the LA Times about the Peace March Reunion. I was glad to only attend virtually, but I do love these people. There are some nice pics too. Did I mention that I love these people?

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I used to work for Synergy, and I used the rattletrap donated old van to pick up kids in a 100 miles radius, drive 'em to docs, legal, library -- all kinds of things. And we only had two vans to share between the Street Outreach team and sometimes a kid would call in and have to wait to get picked up from a dangerous sitch because we were using the van for the kids from the shelter.
Please vote for Syngery to win a vehicle from Toyota's 100 Cars for Good today -- today is the deadline. [link]
Thanks!

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
