So I watched The Neverending Story for the first time in an age today, and this quote from G'Mork really stuck out to me.

"Because people who have no hopes are easy to control; and whoever has the control... has the power!"

Even more powerful than it was 40 years ago. Let's hold onto hope folks 💜

You cannot tug on the heartstrings of the heartless

You cannot appeal to morals of the immoral

You cannot shame the shameless

The results of the Chasing Santa Cycling/5K Toy Drive in Colorado Springs! We were the snowy brigade with five Snowtroopers and two Hoth Trench Troopers. We lost the dance off to the professional Santa's though 🎅

A group photo of eight people: seven dressed as white, Star Wars Snowtroopers (one has a Santa hat on), two as Star Wars Hoth Trench Troopers, and one professional Santa Claus. They are posed in front of two booths and a snow-capped mountain in the background. A photo of a large group of people all dressed as Santa's gathering for a 5K marathon in front of a green and blue blow-up arch. There are two, white Snowtroopers standing on either side of the path looking at the group.

Finally doing our #501st Snowtrooper kit maintenance for our troop tomorrow morning at the Santa toy run marathon! @sharkychase.bsky.social always handles the plastic/metal repairs and I've got all of our fabric parts washing/disinfecting/febreez-ing 💪

Posting this again because a lot of people said they found it helpful! Guide to ALT text: www.perkins.org/resource/how...
ALT text copied and pasted from the linked website: An infographic titled “How To Write Alt Text” featuring a photo of a capybara. Parts of alt text are divided by color, including identify who, expression, description, colour, and interesting features. The finished description reads “A capybara looking relaxed in a hot spa. Yellow yuzu fruits are floating in the water, and one is balanced on the top of the capybara’s head.”

Willem Dafoe speaking truth in this interview with @mattzollerseitz.bsky.social www.vulture.com/article/will...
question: I feel like the relationship of the audience to movies has changed in the past ten or 15 years. They expect the movie to come to them. answer: Absolutely. They’d rather go home and turn on their TV and see a film that way. And let’s face it, a certain kind of corruption comes in because people go home and they shop around on these streaming platforms. There’s some good things about the platforms. They create a lot of movies. They create a lot of jobs. But there’s so many distractions that you can’t enter the stuff. People watch five minutes of something and they say, “I’m not really into it” and they go to another thing. “I’m not really into it.” Then another thing. “I’m not really into it.” Then they go to bed. If you don’t put in the effort, you’re not going to receive much. And the discourse gets lowered, and everything gets a little more dumbed down and then that’s when the ruffians come in, and they’re the ones with energy and stupidity and then they can crush all the thoughtful people. That’s not good for culture, and that’s not good for humanity. We see the results of that all the time.

Huge shout out to my friends and family book club that got me to finally finish a book I dropped back in middle school (oops) 🤣

4⭐️ really enjoyed it!

I recently started trying to keep plants alive and I didn't realize that eventually I'd have to punish the plants by hacking off the parts that were growing too well. What kind of sick hobby is this

My wife and my kitties are so cute! When it gets colder out, they love to cuddle together.

Tell your kids, seek out the librarians…instead of a policeman.🧐 It’d be safer, imo.

Want to dismantle the patriarchy this holiday season? Start with your wallet.

I can recommend Poor Richard's Bookstore in Colorado Springs. Poor Richard's is a fabulous little bookstore that stocks the newest releases and has a great collection of used books. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable. Plus, they buy used books in good condition for cash or store credit.

Here's your daily reminder that bookstores keep the love of reading alive — but they also keep neighborhoods beautiful. They are places to gather, to celebrate stories, to find community.

Please do your holiday shopping at your local independent bookstore, if you are lucky enough to still have one.
