SF/32 Update

[spatch]

We interrupt our regularly scheduled nervous breakdown to announce that one more film has been added to the line-up for SF/32, whose theme this year "Bots Over Boston." ROBOCOP! Yay! Everybody loves Robocop!

Also, they brought out this year's logo (the image is "I'm huge!" big.) Holy cats! This is one of the best logos they've had in years. I would buy this in many formats if I could.

I would like to protest this bigoted and hurtful portrayal of a stereotypical "robot menace" carrying away a supine and probably unconscious woman. The assumptions here about what that robot wants are too broad and vulgar to even go into.

Get this straight: when we robots carry off a woman, there's a 93.78% chance it's because she's going along with us willingly. In addition, we usually prefer for them to ride piggyback, giggling and shouting "WHEEE!" if at all possible.

The bikini, on the other hand, is most accurate. And appreciated!
