I’m an unashamed fan of #AndJustLikeThat and this week’s episode is particularly hilarious. Though, I admit I was already giddy from moving to Pittsburgh this week to live out my Hallmark movie romance.

I was never excited about Thunderbolts* but I thought it would be a fun action flick. I never expected it to be a story about battling depression and our inner demons. I can’t say it’s the most *fun* film in the MCU, but it may be the most important to me.

Season 2 of Light & Magic, the Disney+ documentary series about effects house Industrial Light & Magic, is a love letter to prequel kids who loved Jar Jar and flip-master Yoda from the start. #lightandmagic

I keep thinking about @sarahkendzior.bsky.social : "They don't mind being caught, they mind being punished. Learn the difference. Trump and his backers have been committing crimes with impunity for decades."

Suffering no consequences is part of flexing their power. It reveals their collaborators.

I love how Charlie Cox is able to deliver the line, β€œbut at the time of his arrest he wasn’t wearing his magical amulet” with the same gravitas as Michael Caine saying, β€œthis is Fozzywig’s old rubber chicken factory.” Legends, both

His track record speaks for itself. While we continue to resist, we should take comfort in that he is deeply incompetent, not very bright & his policies are hurting even his most devoted supporters. Let's not get in the way of his inevitable self-destruction.

Figure skating world championships were considered to be for men only until 1902, when Madge Syers showed up and took home silver and the ISU went "whooooops guess we need to segregate them."

It happened again in 1992 Olympic skeet shooting: Zhang Shan took gold and then they segregated the event.

No Amazon. No Walmart. No Target. No Disney. No Google. No Apple. No Visa or Mastercard. And especially no Facebook or Twitter. Buy essentials such as medicine, food, and emergency supplies, of course, but make those purchases at small, local businesses and use cash. The purpose of today’s economic blackout is to send a clear message: We have the power.

Thank you to the costume designer for Captain America: Brave New World (Gersha Phillips) for putting Joaquin Torres (Danny Ramirez) in a tank top. And no, I have no idea what happened in that scene.

Okay, that’s what I *really* meant about being excited about the cast πŸ˜‚

True! I am still very excited about the cast.

Old and outdated: How are you?

Fresh and relevant: How loud is your internal scream today?

Looking forward to Jurassic World: Rebirth, but a little disappointed after watching the trailer. Are they really never going to give us the movie Dominion promised to be? With dinosaurs roaming the earth and cohabitating with humans? Really hoped Rebirth would be that but looks like a reboot of JP.

Never judge a TV show by its name. I always assumed Severance was about someone losing their job. Newly hooked.

When I saw Wicked for the first time in Chicago in 2005 at age 18 with my first BF, it was life changing. I literally switched my major to theatre.

2024 has been my hardest year in over two decades. I needed this movie and it was everything I’ve been hoping for. Not sure when I’ll stop crying.

The Assembled (behind-the-scenes doc) for Agatha All Along was everything I wanted it to be. I laughed, cried, and learned a lot! Miniatures! Forced perspective! Puppets! And the details! And the costumes! Brilliant and hilarious editing by @miss-smirker.bsky.social.
