I'm in a Russian Culture through Film course this year, and we have some extra credit films that we can watch on our own, one dealing with men's issues, and one dealing with women's issues. We don't have a film dealing with Russian GLBT issues because as far as my teacher knows there isn't one. It's still a very touchy subject over there, so if ( Read more... )

I need toys for my nieces. The nephews are easy, anything shiny will do, but the nieces are special and need toys that will be safe for them. The first is a 6yo kindergartener with Downs and the second is a 4yo Autistic preschooler. Both need toys that are both sturdy and engaging and are safe to possibly be bitten.

I need help finding places to get Russian language films, preferably from English sites as I'm on about a Sesame Street level of Russian, and not confident enough to give a Russian site my credit card number.

Some cats in southern California are needing to be re-homed. If you are in that area and are willing/able to help, please see This Post for details.

I have unfortunately stumbled upon some sources of child pornography today, real photos of real kids, mostly young boys under the age of ten or twelve. Where should I report this? I've already reported the users to the owner of the website in question, but since these ( Read more... )

So, I'm a knitter. Mostly for pleasure and therapy, but occasionally to make gifts as well. Fairly casually, I don't live with a pair of needles in my hand. So, as you can probably guess, I don't like spending a lot on supplies. I DO have a very nice set of needles that I spent good money on, but needles can be used over and over again. For yarn I ( Read more... )
