I’ve been majorly blah lately. I haven’t felt like writing; the world seems full of problems that seem way too big to tackle.

First – whadaya think of the new theme? After spending a few days with it, I have to say that it’s growing on me. I think it looks more sleek and modern than the old primary blue and yellow that this replaced. If you haven’t had a chance to report bugs on other FtB blogs, …

I got nothing. Stephanie and JT have posted some thought-provoking posts about men, women, flirting, sex, harrassment and safe spaces at conferences and conventions, and that’s taken up a lot of brain space over the last 24 hours.

What if all the Avengers characters posed like female superheroes? Seen on Twitter. Awesome USB drive Thanks for the tip, Paul! Pro-Vaccination Billboard Photographed by moi on southbound 94 in Wisconsin This billboard on southbound 94 in Wisconsin made me happy.

CASH – Campus Atheists Skeptics and Humanists – was kind enough to invite me to speak about blogging, atheism and activism. I started really working on the slides/notes a couple of days ago, but it’s crunch time now …
