@HauntedOwlbear I’m not even a huge fan of the original and this still great!

In international news, I once snubbed Marine Le Pen in a farmer’s market in Paris and refused to shake her hand. I regret nothing.

It’s kind of fascinating to watch how, after spending my early years in IT as always the only out queer person and sometimes the only woman on white male majority teams, I am now still often the only out queer person but am also not infrequently the only white person and often the oldest person on much more diverse teams. Cue theme music? And hey, buy a few books and hire me for stuff so I don’t have to do this until I’m 80? 🙏 https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=btPJPFnesV4

#LGBTQstodon #Bookstodon Btdubs, l have a series of survey posts on the history of #queer speculative fiction from pre1960s to 2010 on Queer Sci-Fi. It’s a jumping off point, not a “this is everything” series, but hey, since Bryn Mawr now has it listed as a resource, you might find it useful too! https://www.queerscifi.com/tag/out-of-the-past/
