The controls of a small yellow spaceship can be seen through its big domed windshield, sitting in the foreground. An explorer with a backpack stands outside it on a rocky alien outcropping, looking at a tower. Saturn is in the sky above.

Happy Control Panel Saturday: This version's a little small, but I love Chris Moore's detailed 1981 cover art for Ben Bova's 'As on a Darkling Plain.'

I wasn't born yet but I like to think I would've been one of those kids running home to watch it after school. I saw DS for the first time as a young adult when it aired on the Sci-Fi Channel in the late 90s, and I had already seen the inferior (imo) revival series beforehand.

We hurried to my grandma's house every weekday after school to watch #DarkShadows. It was so simultaneously camp and creepy and we never missed it. Good times.

Introduction: Satan’s Favorite TV Show Halloween, 1969: Barnabas Collins, the reluctant vampire from the ABC-TV soap opera Dark Shadows, appears at the White House to attend Tricia Nixon’s Halloween party for underprivileged child…

On this day in 1966, one of my all-time favourite shows premiered: #DarkShadows! If you haven't seen it yet, now would be a great time to start, and I highly recommend this blog #DarkShadowsEveryDay to be your guide and companion on that frightful journey. darkshadowseveryday.com/2013/09/01/i...

An infographic with a rainbow sidebar and rainbow header. The header says "Would you like to help our queer fandoms fundraise to support LGBTQ+ charities?"

White text then says "Visit Save Dead Boy Detectives and Adopt Our Crew on social media to learn more!"

A list of charities belonging to each fandom is underneath. "@DeadBoyAgency: A free fan calendar will be available to anyone with proof of at least $10 donation to any of the following: Sherlock's Homes Foundation, Lambda Literary, The It Gets Better Project, Trans Lifeline, alQaws, and Capital Rainbow Refuge. @AdoptOurCrew: Enter to win fan creations, and then support the fundraising effort for the chosen charity: Rainbow Railroad."

The infographic ends with the hashtag #SaveQueerStories and a link to savequeerstories.carrd.co.

For anyone looking for "ideological diversity" I strongly recommend heading down to the local library and reading what is known as a "book". They have all sorts of ideas in there.

I know it's shocking, but you don't actually need to get ALL your ideas from the comment section of social media sites.
