» She-Ra: Princess of Power Rocks the Geek Girl Con Sunless In Seattle
there is a rumor floating around there that all girls want to be princesses and grown women want to be treated like princesses. let me clear something up for you. i didn’t grow up thinking i was helpless and had to be rescued by a prince to make my life a happy ending. somehow, i knew that power lied in me and my choices determined the outcome. maybe that’s why i dig comics and superheroes so much. while they are certainly flawed in many ways, they possess the power to make things happen. aw, i always wanted super powers. but the next best thing is cosplaying someone who does have superpowers! and so i found myself at this year’s geek girl con in seattle cosplaying the princess of power: she-ra!you'd plug your necklace into a USB port, other than to see it light up...but...um...stop pestering me with logic, you! It's COOL. (And only This one is actually jewelry for your dog , since it's an ID tag, but it's hand stamped and awesome and I kind of want one for me: $26.50 from Make Your Dog Smile

Not too long ago, I was having a conversation about books with a coworker of mine who is only a few years younger than me. When I started talking about the Harry Potter series, he told me that he'd read the books up to a point but then stopped because it "wasn't cool" to read them. Instead of working myself up into my usual storm of righteous indignation about something I like not being considered cool, my first thought was, You poor guy.
On Harry Potter, and the end.
Born For Geekdom: The Ravings of a Fangirl: Ashley Eckstein: Why "Her Universe" is More Than Star Wars Shirts
On June 12th, I stood in a long autograph line like I have many times before. It was the last day of Star Wars Weekends at Disney's Hollywood Studios in Orlando, Florida and I had come prepared to meet Ashley Eckstein in the merchandise tent "Jabba's Hut." I had interviewed Ashley a couple weeks before about her company " Her Universe ". I thought that meeting Eckstein, the voice of "Asoka Tano" in the animated Star Wars show "The Clone Wars" for a photo op might make a great ending to the story.GeekGirlCon
When I sat down tonight I intended to write about my experiences with the Game of Thrones food truck last week and meeting George R.
