Is it just me, or have a LOT of online retailers decided that "opt-out" is the new normal? (And, I should add, not giving you an option to opt out until you've already started receiving their e-mails.) I never asked to be hearing every single day about shoes at Endless which don't even fit me anyway.

(Got my Danskos. Will have to send them back. They have such a good reputation for larger shoes, but why don't they go all the way up to a 43?)

N.K.Jemisin's short story Non-Zero Probabilities is up at Clarkesworld. Yes, that's the one she read at Bluestockings. Go, read. (I will have to do so later, since I'm rushing out the door to go to NYPL and fangirl at people.)
