your mission, should you choose to take it....

A writing exercise, found over at vvalkyri's:



This will run from July 11th when the new Harry Potter movie debuts until July 21st when the final Harry Potter book is released.

On days 1-4 (July 11-14), magic suddenly works for you, however you want it to, spells, wishes, etc.

On days 5-9 (July 15-20), now everyone is starting to notice that magic works, leading up to...

Day 10 (July 21), when it is all out magic war as people choose sides and fight it out.

Me, I'm gonna use magic to upload my bookstack instantly...

I'm in yur comix, drawin yur d00dz

Fascinating comparison of male and female superheroes in comics, with men drawn in the distorted "sexy" poses usually assigned to women. Kinda depressing how it's so hard to imagine a female superhero that isn't stereotypically "hot".

Via Shakesville, whose comments revealed more of the same.
