Firefly for feminism
Seattle-area folks:

There will be a screening of Serenity to benefit Equality Now, a feminist charity supported by Joss Whedon, this Saturday at Magnuson Park (which is right near my place so I can help people with directions). This is one of several screenings nationwide, and it's neat to see this tangible effort being put forth by Joss.

Unfortunately, Saturday is set aside for game and I won't be able to make it, but I figure other people will be interested. Watch Serenity for a good cause!

Details on the event.

Ack! I meant to announce that weeks ago (I'm semi-involved in the group that's organizing it), and I completely spazzed. Thanks for posting this for everyone!

I thought that was the name of the group you joined for contra dancing, but I wasn't sure. Incidentally, I found out about this from a flyer in the Health Sciences building. Not the first place I'd go for geek news, but at least they're getting the word out!

I saw a flyer for the Serenity screening in Portland on Wednesday. Of course, I was distracted by the Lamborghini parked outside of the bar across the street from said flyer. ^^;

Sorry, I'm going to miss you while I'm seeing the Pillows tomorrow evening. :/

Oh, I didn't know you were coming for the Pillows! I guess you're just going to be here tomorrow night, huh?

Have fun at the concert!

Yeah, we're coming up tomorrow morning-ish. I have to return Sunday morning/afternoon-ish because I need to take my girlfriend home so she can catch another ride to go back to school across the state... (Does that make any sense?)

We haven't found anywhere to stay, though. All the hotels we've called are booked for Saturday night and I'm not so sure how I'd feel about having to drive another three hours to get home that night. >_<

Do you have any suggestions for a place we could stay?

Sorry, I was offline for the weekend. I hope you worked something out for lodging ... But I heard the concert was a lot of fun, so that's good.
