nigeltde: if trixie could just think hard enough she would undo everything (Default)
[personal profile] nigeltde
you know what, I'm reading reading reading, maybe what I can do here is post links to some of the more interesting stuff I read. then at least I can still be alive.

So, two things:

- Revisting Tinker, Tailor, Soldier Spy criticism. I have only already read the highly recommendable Bordwell piece so I look forward to delving into the others.

- Penny Arcade fail timeline. A while ago -- I was so out of it last year I completely missed this -- Penny Arcade prompted (through various fails) and then was at the centre of a number of discussions that began with a debate about whether rape jokes can be funny in rape culture and then exploded into wide-ranging examinations of geek culture, feminism, allies, masculinity, and privilege. A lot of people shared very personal stories, and a lot of people made some really disgusting trolly twitter accounts, so enter at your own risk (the timeline is not triggery except possibly in some screenshots of twitter posts further down the page).
If you don't have an account you can create one now.
