Just finished Frankenstein and this might be my favorite Guillermo Del Toro film since Pan’s Labyrinth (which is quite the feat). Gorgeously shot, lavish set pieces, emotional and empathetic. What a treat!

Arrived this morning: “Master of Evil” by @adamchristopher.me. As a huge fan of Shadows of the Sith, I’ve been eagerly awaiting this book since it was announced back in Spring. Jumping in now.

Just started reading The Last Order from @kwamembalia.bsky.social and that dedication page got me fired up already! Got a feeling this is exactly what I need right now.

I would love to see this story play out in literally any medium. A season two, a movie, a limited series, a book, a comic, a video game… anything. Just give us this!

Happy birthday to the incomparable Carrie Fisher. May she forever rest in the Force.

Leader, rebel, and General to many. But to me, she’s royalty.
