One of the themes that emerged from this year's WisCon was some very ambivalent feelings about power, in particular about 'hard power,' so to speak, versus the 'soft power' of empathy, finding common ground and building on it, the reed that bends in the storm and doesn't break.

I am thinking about this. I'm going to write a post about this when I get my head together.

In the meantime, Feminist Hulk says:

HULK BELIEVE IN HEALING POWER OF LOVE. HULK ALSO BELIEVE IN HEALING POWER OF SMASH. HULK VAST. CONTAIN MULTITUDES.

Thanks, Feminist Hulk!
