Feministing Follow Friday: TV on Twitter

I watch TV on the internet. I don’t have an actual set (lol), I don’t have any friends who have actual sets, and I don’t have wifi at home. I’m also a law student, which means if I regularly took the time to watch an entire show I would probably die of guilt. So, I “keep up” with TV purely via Twitter — and I always appreciate a good feminist lens (I know, shocking). Here are some of the Feministing crew’s favorite ladies who livetweet shows with equal parts wit and gender analysis.

Feministing Follow Friday: Funny Feminists Edition, Vol. I

I’m really, really over the ARE WOMEN FUNNY “debate” and usually I’m on the Liz Lemon train: I’m not gonna make you a fucking list of funny women just to prove my point. But, then again, it’s my job to make a list of feminists on the internet every Friday. And this time I want to talk about hilarious ladies.

Feministing Follow Friday: Feminist Academics, Vol. I

It’s no secret that there’s a special place in Feministing’s heart for academic feminists. It’s a rare treat, though, to see what distinguished profs and researchers think about outside the classroom. Twitter can offer a little window into this world, so here are five of our favorite feminist academics to follow.

Feministing Follow Friday: Student Anti-Violence Orgs

On Wednesday, Obama announced that he is creating a task force to combat campus sexual violence. It’s not perfect — it’s pretty hetero, its focus is too carceral — but presidential commitment is also a big step, and I basically cried tears of happiness all day (and then ate chocolate cake). In his speech, Obama gave a major shout-out to student organizers, so I wanted to honor that by pointing out some of my favorite student-run anti-violence organizations and collectives on Twitter. Including my own. Sorry.

Feministing Follow Friday: Feminist Poets Edition, Vol. II

A million years ago — OK, more like a month ago — before Feministing took time off for the holidays, and before I briefly left the blogosphere to study for finals, we put together Volume I of feminist poets you should follow on Twitter. As promised, just a bit late, here’s Volume II.

Feministing Follow Friday: Feminist Fiction Edition, Vol. I
