The 105th Down Under Feminists Carnival is up! 
Hoyden About Town 
Well, I did write one of the above posts… Thanks for the link! I have another blog for a reading project I embarked on this year, on which I just posted my impressions of bell hooks’ Feminism is for Everybody. I’d appreciate your thoughts; the blog is at http://bunchofauthors.blogspot.com
Oh, and thanks too for FF101 – it seems to be just what I was looking for in the wake of reading hooks’ book!
Hi Ben! I very much enjoyed your geek-comedy contributions to The Pun this year as well. Will definitely check out Bunch of Authors.
Whenever a troll showed up and wrote a negative comment, several regular posters would promptly respond by informing the troll that they had just made an extra donation in his/her honor.
Yeah – that could get rid of trolls.
Or, with the right amount of trolls, it could be a quick route to bankruptcy for the people donating.
