Many, many years ago I replaced a broken wise man in my mom's nativity with a Yoda figurine from taco bell, circa the (90s?) original trilogy theatrical re-release. He's just part of the set now.

And now I've got an even better one! Stumbled upon a local author signing at Barnes and Noble, bought their book and had a lovely chat sharing other book recs! They didn't know @wiswell.bsky.social or @pluralistic.net.web.brid.gy @scalzi.com, but their sci fi fantasy sounds right up that alley.

I feel like you need to know the story of the time my kiddo (then age 5) was refusing to go to kindergarten, and instead hid under the table with a box of Dolly Parton muffin mix. Quoth kiddo, "No, I'm staying home and making muffins"
"so help me, Dolly" is clearly implied if you ask me.

Sending all the vibes for rest, support from your community, and brain rest. I remember being so anxious with the first kid sicknesses. You got this, stay hydrated, and be kind to your feelings.

Gods, he must be so miserable. I couldn't get over hearing about his whole colonizer ohana bullshit in the company, and feel bad for how many people got brought along for the ride. Glad for the people abandoning the "salesforce ecosystem"

Admittedly, I liked The Shining, but that may be more to do with when/ where/ with whom I watched it:
With my crush.
In the dormitory building we had just closed down for winter.
He's my husband now! And he makes fun of me for getting jump scared by a title card that just said Tuesday.

2001: A Space Odyssey.
When that movie finished, I was so weirdly angry. I remember nearly yelling at my spouse "There was no 'there' there!" I feel like absolutely nothing happened in that film and I wanted my time back.

Now, if I can just get my spouse to try out this show.... or at least a curated "best of" set of episodes.

My first good thought was that some music genres could mesh well with Trainspotting, and apparently something's been in development for some time. So, right on, brain.

There was such a great episode of In Bed With the Right about this whole thing. They were quoting news and magazine pieces from the 1800s about the decline of manhood because of the length of pants or something. It's an old song certain folks just keep replaying.

In my experience, some programs ignore anything in all caps. Which is how I had to change something the other day that has read "AMDISSIONS AND RECORDS" for at least two years.
