je voudrais te dire mais je n'ose pas
Oct. 1st, 2011 04:43 pmNow I really want to lie in bed and read Steve/Tony (the Avengers are taking over my mind - help!), but instead I get to do anti-racism 101 all over the responses my students wrote to N.K. Jemisin's excellent The Effluent Engine. I hate trying to do 101-level work in written comments.
