Hackerspaces and Hacking Science →
“Civilian science”, or local, community-lead, focused science and tech meet-ups called “hackerspaces” who help with major problems such as the nuclear power plant crisis in Japan. This is the appropriate use of the word “hacker”. People who steal your credit card numbers are just assholes.

YA!flash: So about the so-called lack of boy stuff... →
malindalo: yaflash: So I have a lot of feelings every single time I hear that people are “angry” or “annoyed” or whatever that they can’t find ONE SINGLE YA BOOK IN THE ENTIRE YA SECTION FOR BOYS TO READ and YOUNG MEN ARE FAILING BECAUSE GIRLS ARE TAKING OVER LITERATURE and HOW CAN BOYS POSSIBLY BE EXPECTED TO WANT… Word.

Ink & Pen: Five YA Novels Featuring a Protagonist... →
Yay, neurodiversity! These books are more about the Autism, rather an about a person who just happens to have Autism (or if you prefer, someone who is Autistic). “Issue” books, if you will.

Free Comic Book Day →
Don’t forget it’s tomorrow! And while you’re there, maybe buy a non-free comic book! May I suggest Brian Vaughn’s Saga, Matt Fraction’s Hawkeye or Kelly Sue DeConnick’s Captain Marvel?
