Geek Pride Weekend is This Weekend! May 23-25

As you know, we are big on encouraging you to wave your geek flag high. Geek Pride Day always falls on May 25, so this year, we’ve decided to turn it into a weekend of celebration! We’re going to have all kinds of events and flash sales happening throughout the weekend to celebrate fandoms of all shapes and sizes. We’ll be doing everything from dancing with Spock to Shakespeare’s Star Wars to Vogon poetry readings, Steampunk coloring, and more.
