      Ooh, that's a tough question. There are so many great non-profits I love - ACLU, EFF, Doctors Without Borders, DonorsChoose, the list goes on and on.

      I would have to choose GSAnetwork, because I think setting up GSAs in schools is a fantastic thing. Bullying is so widespread and LGBTQQIA teens and kids can have trouble feeling alone. Making sure there's a safe space where they can ask advice, work for equality, or just chat is a great mission.

      I see no problem with whatever consenting people want to enjoy together - than includes polyamory :)

      That's a toughie - my taste in books generally gravitate around sci-fi, but I like all sorts of things. Currently I'm reading the Steve Jobs biography, but some of my favorites include:

      - 1984
      - The God Delusion (also reading now)
      - Catcher in the Rye
      - Lord of the Rings
      - any travel books by Bill Bryson
      - Animal Farm
      - The Shining
      - Fahrenheit 451
      - Brave New World
      - The Child Thief (great underrated book)

      I am indeed, baring unforeseen circumstances! I don't have any finals that week, so it should all be good. (For anyone who doesn't know what I'm talking about: http://www.gsanetwork.org/yes)

      I call myself a "front-end web developer." Web designer implies that I primarily do the graphic design end of websites, but I mostly do HTML+CSS. I also do some backend along the lines of PHP and RoR (still learning), so I think the term encompasses all that.

      I've read a pretty large amount of Animorphs, all of the GONE series, and some assorted individual books here and there. I never really liked Everworld or Remnants that much.
