Tiger Beatdown › ’CAUSE I'M NERDCORE LIKE THAT:... →
Via dorianisms. Read the whole thing!

Nerd culture is about these little sparring matches, where we are encouraged to denigrate the other person, holding fiercely to our own beliefs. When we’re talking about the Avengers, I want to bring up the Young Avengers, especially the relationship developing between Wiccan and Hulkling, and...

Realms of Fantasy: Full Of Some Whitewashing You... →
I’m just going to bottom line it for you: Whitewashing is never okay no matter what. If you don’t agree, then you’re really too far gone to exist in polite and cultured society and perhaps you should do us all a favor and go back to the cave you most certainly crawled out of.

Turns out, it’s India. I thought so. Second place is the UK. Which also makes sense. (Am I/were any of my ancestors Indian? No, not at all. Nor English. Just for the record.)
Predictably, it can not track any of my family’s surnames. Mine, which is complicated, I skipped, because it was a surname of my father’s which was given to his father by his...

dorianisms:
I haven’t read any of them (though I just recently took Liar out from the library), but she recommends them all highly. And really, there needs to be more fiction that doesn’t centre white folks in the world.
