Bear with me. Mr. Oddbooks and I have been trading the same illness back and forth and now my version is a sinus infection. Some people can work when they are sick but I am not one of them. I’ve been reading lots of insane crap online as I wallow in my illness (insane crap online? the hell you say) and will definitely be sharing some of that in the future. Hopefully I will be back with some discussions at the end of the week.
However…
I have some good stuff planned for the near future so short periods of silence may also be attributed to getting things together on my end.
April 8-12 I am hosting another Bizarro Week, along with book giveaways. More on that next week, but stay tuned.
April 22-26 will be ANSWER Me! week. I also am going to give away some Jim Goad books, though not any of the ANSWER Me! books, unfortunately, as they are out of print and I can’t find any decent, affordable copies online (when I rule the world, all the book drop-shippers on Amazon will be beaten naked through the streets, but that’s a rant for another day). This discussion has taken far longer than I anticipated and I appreciate everyone bearing with me as I hash this out. I wanted to make sure that when the inevitable arguments of what specific sacred feminists did say or did not say begin, I will have all my ducks in a row, text-wise.
At any rate, as I wait for the pressure in my skull to abate, I’ve got some good things planned. BRB when I have antibiotics and some ginger ale.
ETA: Clearly everything has been pushed back but IROB will be up and racing out of the gate very soon. Stay tuned.
Ugh. I’ve found that one of the drawbacks of cohabitation is that it increases my risk of getting sick–not only am I in contact with the germs spread by all the people I come in contact with, but all those spread by people my partner comes in contact with as well. On the other hand, I know a couple with three young children in grade school (AKA germ factories)who are always annoyingly healthy. I’ll use your period of radio silence as an opportunity to read some of the stuff in your archive. Maybe I’ll even excavate my copy of the Rape Issue from the pile of old zines in the basement, assuming the rats having made a nest out of it yet.
