Raising Awareness: Hal Hershfelt and Croix Bethune's Military Family Background and Soccer Success
Learn about two of the Spirit's rookies who shared a common bond outside of soccer. They were both raised in the U.S. Military while falling in love with soccer.
Both players had unique experiences growing up in military families. A life that not many civilians know about or can even imagine what it’s like. The moving. Having to adjust to new places. Missing loved ones who can be deployed anywhere in the world at the drop of a hat. It’s a life that helps you see the world differently from others. Here is Hal and Croix’s story they shared with the…

Princess Syalis' sleep quest, spells, and forbidden library knowledge in "Sleepy Princess in the Demon Castle"
Princess Syalis reads a Grimoire in the forbidden room off the underground demon library, and is annoyed
I’ve written about sleeping on this blog throughout this past year, whether in regards to Rin Shima in Laid Back-Camp, who sleeps at the information desk when she was in school, one of the few characters who is a librarian which I have seen doing this, while comfortably wearing a hair bun.…

A guest post by Dr Danica Anderson
Of the few lesbians I have met outside of Sarajevo city, the rural regions have many lesbians who have disappeared or camouflaged themselves. The same alibi is given when I ask where she is. The universal response is - she has been repatriated back home. The lesbians I searched for are the ‘disappeared’ and most likely murdered and tortured and raped. I carry the names of lesbians asking authorities (all male by the way) - where did these women go?

Meghan Murphy doesn’t hold anything back as she decries the tomfoolery of the gender-magic on display from the US federal government.
“Yesterday, we witnessed a historic moment: US assistant health secretary Rachel Levine was sworn in as the first ever female four-star admiral of the Public Health Service Commissioned Corps. Wait, no. That’s not right… Let me start again.

Yesterday, September 8th was the 53rd Anniversary of Star Trek, and aren’t we lucky to have had this happyplace in our lives? Wishing Happy Anniversary to the surviving cast of The Original Series, William Shatner, Nichelle Nichols, George Takei and Walter Koenig, and happy memories of our beloved other cast members, Leonard Nimoy, Deforest Kelley, James Doohan, Majel Barret, Grace Lee Whitney, and of course the creator, Gene Roddenberry. The dream of a better future lives on with Star Trek in all of it’s incarnations! May its vision of a peaceful and caring society truly live long and prosper!
One thing I loved about the original series is that even though not all characters had equal time, there were countless little moments where we’d see the human (or otherwise) nature of characters that would give us a peek into their personalities. Little quirks anyone could understand. In honor of 53 years of Star Trek, here are 53 moments of my favorite TOS episodes, 🙂
Also, more coverage of my visit to TreKonderoga in August coming this week!

Mini Review
Day 11: Free Space!
Countess Dracula (1971)
Another ‘Free Space!’ prompt and I decided I wanted to check out a film from Hammer Films, as there are a fair number I haven’t yet seen. The chosen film to watch for Day 11 is Countess Dracula (1971), Hammer’s version of the Countess Elizabeth Báthory story and not actually about vampires. As Hammer has done so well, this is a gothic style…

New Video: Join Toronto’s MONOWHALES on an 80s Inspired Journey Through Space and Time
Emerging Toronto-based indie act MONOWHALES, three self-described “weirdos” as they say on their Facebook page, released their latest effort Daytona Bleach earlier this year. The album, which according to the band was a long time coming, was the result of a painful yet rewarding period of introspection and personal growth for the trio: “This album is about accepting who we are, and holding it up…

The Fanfiction is Female
Fanfiction has come back into vogue. Well, not entirely; it is still a niche consumer (and creator) market. However, the fanfiction roots of hit book series, such as Shadowhunters and Fifty Shades of Gray, have taken fanfiction from the dark corners of the internet and subversive zine communities and forced it into the limelight. Not to mention that articles from luminary magazines such as The…
