Aw, thanks! It's always a pleasure to write about issues and discuss them with other people who believe these things matter, too. I've had that experience of being the only person in a given group who expresses those concerns—in retrospect, a little less often than I might have expected, but far more frequently than I can accept. The need for feminism(s) is a long, long way from over.

I meant #4; I suppose I'm still biased toward face-to-face contact with respect to memories. But I hope to provide more grist for the memory mill in future!

I am currently a U.S. resident, and for now I support Obama—although thinking about the election in general forces me to remind myself that shaking my head like a pinball or vending machine does not help, and will only lead to concussion!

The icon (by charming_syrai) depicts James Ellison (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James_Ellison_%28Terminator%29), FBI agent on The Sarah Connor Chronicles. He's standing in the room Sarah occupied for three years while she was institutionalized. A Christian who's not a caricature, Ellison is thoughtful, smart, and seriously underappreciated by fans despite the fact that he's been listed as a regular since the beginning. And the only major character of color on the show. Sadly, I think there's a clear link between his status as a character of color and the underwhelming fan response.
