Actually trying to remember a story. Over the holidays I heard some kids complaining about going back to school. Basically, what's the point if you can look stuff up on the internet.
I thought, what you going to do if the internet/communications are down?
But, back to school. What is school? Learning yes but I think one of the biggest reasons is socialization. Teaching kids how to interact with the world and others.
I subscribe to TED Talks and today's was about Trans activist & Model Geena Rocero: Why I must come out. It's only about 10 minutes long in which she tells her story. Seems to me it took a lot of courage to get up on stage as a successful model and declare I'm trans.
Most of you don't know me except for a few blog comments and sorry to say even fewer story comments.
Erin's appeal for donations got me to thinking. The first paragraph (in part) "…annual server contract for four of the BC/SD/TGF servers is coming due. These servers run BC, Stardust, TGFiction.Net, CrystalHall, qnez, TGLibrary, StorySite and a dozen other TG and TG friendly websites…." got my attention.
Anyone Know if Lisa Grey is still around and writing. I just finished rereading her stories and was interested if there was more somewhere. One of my favorites was The Serendipity of Freedom. At the end of one version of the story she had a note "In the conclusion of The Serendipity of Freedom, Valerie and the task force go forth into enemy territory. Will Valerie once again defeat the odds and return home to Miri? Will the Terran Government overwhelm the dissidents, or will liberty and justice prevail? Find out as Valerie's story comes full circle. -- LCG"
I've been looking at forums/blogs/twitter feeds about the Rapture 2011 World Tour and was thinking about what a good opportunity if you had a Medallion of Zulu or something similar. All those people disappearing leaving their life/identity behind with just a pile of clothes/jewelry/etc. left to mark their passing.
Hope it's OK to post this. Just started watching new anime on a site I frequent that is tg themed. Hourou Musuko.
