1. Henry Jenkins is awesome. I want to have his job when I grow up. And he's gonna have a new and interesting dialogue about and between fanboys and fangirls on his blog this summer. *bookmarks* I have a huge list of new fandom/fanthropology books and articles to read now.

2. Just a thought that kept recurring during the Shipping the Velvet slash panel. Why must slashers' ideas of fanfiction follow the traditional romance novel pattern: fall in love/lust, get married, have babies? (And while we're talking about babies, one of the panelists mentioned some SPN mpreg, in which Dean was the "mother". WTF? *bleaches eyeballs*)

3. The presentation on Mary Sues and slash and gender envy? Had to leave before I threw something at the lecturer.

4. The Drunk Eaters? Scary. Especially Bellatrix.

5. [livejournal.com profile] ariadne1's roundtable on Granger/Snape and [livejournal.com profile] titti's panel on Snape slash this afternoon. Off to be a fandom geek. :)
