http://veejane.livejournal.com/412361.html
(coffeeandink by the way, is my favourite SFF blogger, I always found her posts to be consistently very interesting, well thought and articulated, and about a wide range of subjects related to SFF and fandom.)
Abigail Nussbaum and Hal Duncan both have some very interesting posts criticising the recent and less recent episodes of Battlestar Galactica, in particular in terms of metaphors mix-up; and how cowardly the tackling of dark, political themes actually is in the show.
zoeiona on the problems with sexism and racism in the SFF genre.
(I didn't find any SCC icons I liked, so I made my own. Lookie!)
