For those on Goodreads... I know I've gotten around their (completely and utterly stupid) lack of a way to record re-reads before by doing something with another edition of the same book. But I am not able to replicate that this time. Help??

Linkspam

Links that I've found thought-provoking lately (when by lately I mean pretty much the last three months):

Sady Doyle on class

How I Lost Faith in the Pro-Life Movement

The Myth of Thanksgiving

I'm sure everyone's already seen John Scalzi's A Fan Letter to Certain Conservative Politicians. If not, trigger warning for rape.

On a lighter note:

Atheist Don't Have No Songs

OMG this is the best crossover in the entire world!!!!! Warships of Letters. Femslash, Master & Commander/Warhorses of Letters crossover. Nobody I know is in both of these fandoms, so sadly I have no one to squee with this about! Squeeeeeee!

Sir Now Appearing is being flaky about the birthday party he's throwing me, and I am 99% sure that he will remember to get beer and not remember to get a cake. Where is a good place to get a cake?? I think I have some candles left over from two years ago, but I should probably check.
