so we were married on the silk road

+ I found this video via TED via someone on Facebook, but it's honestly one of the most succinct, articulate ways I've seen to describe the basic philosophy of Just Being Fucking Nice To People. But with science? The Empathic Civilization, by Jeremy Rifkin.

+ I feel like maybe the internet was busy watching the Emmys last night, so in case you were one of those people: my ridiculous Blake/Olivia is up. The primer to the ridiculous, only-in-our-heads 'verse that this goes with is here at thrace_'s LJ, but it really doesn't matter which you read first.

+ I finished Batwoman: Elegy a few days ago, on an absolutely spot-on rec from mimesere and omgomgomgggggg ♥Kate Kane♥. I want to read all about everything she does, ever. SHE'S LIKE BATMAN, EXCEPT I'M NOT BORED BECAUSE SHE'S A GIRL. And also she's not a BIG WHINY LOSER. PLUS she wears suits and fights crime and bangs chicks, NOT THAT I HAVE A TYPE OR ANYTHING.

My only problem is that I need like, a very easy-to-read flowchart of exactly which issues I should read next and why. Figuring out comics is a challenge for me.

+ Somehow, this (again, from comicallyvintage, IT AND oxymoronassoc ARE HALF MY TUMBLR I SWEAR) needs to be some kind of AU. I'm thinking Bleighton, but Disney could totally work, too. Get on that, universe.
