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 [personal profile] merelydovely' interrogating one's preferences: the femslash gap and a fascinating exchange in [personal profile] 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 [community profile] fem_thoughts and/or [community profile] 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.

[personal profile] 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.

[personal profile] 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...

I can second the rec for "One From The Vaults", of which I am a big fan! Morgan M. Page has a great story-telling style, is excellent with nuance (e.g. when it comes to people whose conceptions of their own gender identities might not fit neatly into current categories), and tells fascinating stories about fascinating people.
