Waterlog

TIME: 49 min.
DISTANCE: 5.3 mi.
TOTAL DISTANCE: 184.7 mi.
DISTRACTION: "The Fiddlesticks Affair"
NOTES: The homoerotic subtext in the blackmail scene is really not so much with the sub. Which lends a nasty sting to Illya's remark about once having been a gentleman.
SHIRE RECKONING: Midgewater Marshes.

some links

The fabulous Mary Anne Mohanraj has two excellent posts on John Scalzi's blog. She also links to Ampersand's post on How Not To Be Insane When Accused of Racism (which is, please note, from 2005).

rydra_wong is compiling authoritative link lists of posts about this debate on racism and cultural appropriation.
