Crossover post with LesbianGamers.com given its relevance to both. Battlestar Galactica's Tricia Helfer plays female character "Dare" in the new Halo title ODST: Orbital Drop Shock Trooper. Dare is the commanding officer in the UNSC Marine Corp and head of the Shock Trooper squad. We've got a feeling she won't be playable (unless it's in multiplayer), which sucks. On a note of trivia, Tricia Helfer joins Katee Sackoff (Battlestar Galactica's Starbuck) as one of the female voices in the Halo universe. Full image of Dare after the jumperoo.

Williams stated "[ABC] put the kibosh on it," - "I don't know why."and Executive producer Silvio Horta stated "We thought about it, but ultimately decided to go in a direction that would set up more stories for next season."
Yeah because having a couple of lesbians in the show will impede setting up other stories, give me a break.
Just a quick shout out to a new podcast on the net that is very cool indeed. Friends of LesbianGeek.com Dany and Kendra bring you "Grasping at Subtext" (great name guys!), a new podcast about spotting lesbian subtext in TV shows, movies, books and whatever else takes their fancy. The podcast has a cool laidback conversational style so you should check it out.
So say we all.
We'd like to highlight someone with geek status. Someone who looks more like a lady politician or school teacher than the stereotypical geek. The lady in question is Maureen Ryan. She writes for the Chicago Tribune and we've thoroughly enjoyed her insight and interviews about Battlestar Galactica.
'Mo' writes about many shows in her column "The Watcher" and seems to be a bit of a geek with a sweet writing style. If you've missed her BSG thoughts and you're a fan of the series, be sure and check those out as they're filled with information.
You can check out The Watcher by Maureen Ryan here.
You may or may not be aware that both Lesbian Gamers and Lesbian Geek are on Twitter. We'd love it is you followed us as we're thinking of using them more regularly.
That aside we wanted to talk about geeky celebrity Twitters and who you might want to follow. We've been having a lot of fun following Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, two people we really had no interest in, but their Twitter updates tell a different story to the stuck up celebs you might think. Some other good celebrity Twitterers include Stephen Fry, Felicia Day and Wil Wheaton. Maybe you know some good celeb twitters? Why not add them in our comments.
If you've heard of "Genki Wear" before then kudos to you because you my friend are an even bigger geek than she that types this... bravo. Genki Wear are a little company that released a few sweet jewelry pieces based on the Buffy the Vampire Slayer universe. Now it seems they're taking on the scent of Star Trek.
Rumor has it we can expect to see three new perfumes from the company including two for men... not really perfume then, more cologne, some men get funny about such things. The perfumes include "Tiberius", named after none other than Captain Kirk. There's also "Red Shirt" after those expendable away team members and the womens scent of "Ponn Farr", named after a Vulcan mating ritual. No word on a release, probably alongside the new Trek film?
Hey guys,
well as you've probably noticed the site isn't being updated every day as it was in the beginning. This is due to time constraints.. which sucks. We don't want to let the site die though, so we've decided to just make it more of a geek news hub where we'll try and fish out anything lesbian related, or even perhaps just of lesbian interest in some form or another, or any cool geek news.
We'll also be dropping the post images as these take more time to find, edit and add than even writing the posts at times. We figure they're not that important in the grand scheme of things, as you're more interested in the info. Images will be added to posts body when appropriate / needed.
Feedback welcome.
