ME: it makes no sense to have a joust at night, why would you pay for all those bonfires when the whole thing could be lit FOR FREE by the sun?

PLUMMER: so Lord Ashford is spending waaaay too much money on this tournament.

ME: SEE!! BONFIRES!!

Is β€œThe Testament of Ann Lee” just β€œK-Pop Demon Hunters” for bookish and vaguely reclusive elder millennials?

I don’t think this counts as his second ask and rejection, at least by orthodox standards

There are many greater moral outrages but for some reason it might be this particular saga that sends me over the ledge.

My list of critiques of season 5 of Stranger Things is long (LONG) but you know what, here at the end of it, I’ll give the show props for this much:

They never tried to ape prestige by pointlessly invoking religious imagery and symbolism. ST’s metaphors are firmly secular, and I appreciate that.

No doubt it’s been discussed before! But let’s keep hammering until the message gets home 😊

(Also if I can attend, this will be my first worldcon, so I’m just excited about it lol)

Really not related to anything, not I heard this banger of a quote last night and think it’s worth sharing. From Hans Eysenck:

β€œPeople often consider themselves the Isaac Newton of physics, and find themselves the Isaac Newton of alchemy.β€œ

Let’s get it straight, the Mets didn’t trade Jeff McNeil, they dropped him in the MLB Buy Nothing group.

I got Rickrolled at the dentist, and then I Rickrolled my dentist by explaining what Rickrolling is.

I’m listening to a podcast about the Battle of Thermopylae ( πŸ‘‹ @ourfakehistory.bsky.social) which is simultaneously the most AND the least appropriate thing I could possibly have chosen to learn about on Chanukah.

YouTube has started pointing me toward AI sea shanties.

I knew nothing was sacred, but this is something else.
