Yeah, hours later, slightly less incensed. Still, though. I just don't get it.

We were all teenagers once upon a time. And no, that doesn't mean you should resurrect old idkfa. Don't want to see the throws of of youthful angsty irrationality again, thank you muchly

There was a time during idkfa v3's development that the database models were similar enough that I could have had a "historical" mode, where logged-in users could choose to view new

I was gonna say, maybe we should just peruse through idkfa v2 to get some perspective on her tweets. Right?

Ah. Well, that's a bit more difficult. About all I have are gtfothinspo.tumblr.com which is a good pro-feminist body-positive site. I guess the rest of it I just kind of pick up through

For Christmas get her Mists of Avalon by Bradley. It is a feminist retelling of the Arthurian legend and while it has its own issues, it is still a better female role model than

So far as Cat's Eye goes, it has  real characters, but she just seems like a pretty horrible person in the end. And I don't mean her treatment of her "friend" - because that
