Because I forgot last week, I found a responsive mobile-friendly theme for DW. I keep meaning to tweak my colors, but I like reading on my phone more than I like having a color-scheme that is tasteful and on-brand, and it turns out I'm very bad at translating online palettes to my DW settings. So monochrome it is, at least for the moment.

I have been having all manner of exciting conversations about f/f and femslash lately, notably at merelydovely' interrogating one's preferences: the femslash gap and a fascinating exchange in staranise's comments section on the use of language to describe sex in Latin. I've also been chattering away on a repost of an older piece of mine, in which I am greedy. I need to find time to crosspost that to fem_thoughts and/or girlgay, but I am currently overwhelmed with end-of-semester work shit + manuscript, so it may be some time before I manage to tackle these.

wellthisisnice's recent rec lists are well worth checking out. Lots of really neat-sounding podcasts on fandom, queer history, and plenty more!

WE HAVE A NATIONAL MOLE QUEEN. Surprisingly bloody and very weird, as is usual for naked mole rats. This came up on MeFi and I immediately spent some time rolling around in glee.

nerdflighter needs advice on structuring a website for refugees. Expertise on building communities for survivors of violence of any kind would be very welcome.

I found these incredibly science awesome t-shirts and am now drooling. I do need more work shirts...
