Things We Saw Today: Winter is Coming, Charlie Brown

Time to make up some fan lyrics to Christmastime Is Here. (Geeks of Doom)

• A Wisconsin Planned Parenthood was rocked by a homemade bomb placed outside its window last night. (The Frisky)
• Jezebel has a quick feature on a tattoo artist who specializes in creating (in pigment, if not flesh) nipples for women who’ve undergone mastectomies. See also: opportunities to get nipples in the shape of things other than circles. (probably NSFW)

Lucy Kinsley is a cartoonist and nerd who recently binged on the first four entire seasons of new Who, and wrote and drew things about it. It’s quite funny, and includes really angry cat-nuns. Read it here. (Livejournal)

• Saladin Ahmed discusses race depictions in A Song of Ice and Fire, both the television series and the books. (Salon)
• Lee Aronsohn of Two and a Half Men is tired of women and their icky vaginas being, like, all over television. (The Jane Dough)

These headbands look familiar… and awfully cute. (Fashionably Geek)

• One of the producers of DC Nation let slip the next character we might see in shorts for the programming block: Catwoman! (DC Women Kicking Ass)
• Amit Runchal has a perceptive take on the tech coverage of that creepy stalker app Girls Around Me, and how it consisted of a lot of blaming the victim.

And suddenly the Boostle ‘ship becomes a lot more understandable to some guys who might not have gotten it before. (also HAHAHA robot boobs) (Uni-Blog)

Susana Polo thought she'd get her Creative Writing degree from Oberlin, work a crap job, and fake it until she made it into comics. Instead she stumbled into a great job: founding and running this very website (she's Editor at Large now, very fancy). She's spoken at events like Geek Girl Con, New York Comic Con, and Comic Book City Con, wants to get a Batwoman tattoo and write a graphic novel, and one of her canine teeth is in backwards.
