A photogenic couple for sure 😊

It looks pretty serious

You’re very welcome! It ended up a pick of the week for both me and another staffer.

Love that you included Baum’s original intro, btw, along with (I think) a new version of the Oz map?

They do look pretty serous 🐸

I have not! Remind me in the next week or two and I’ll correct this!

Today is the day I learned there was an original short film of Reservoir Dogs 🤯

for everyone else: buy trans literature & art NOW while you can.

there’s a non-zero chance that queer and *especially* trans voices wind up being temporarily silenced at some point over these next 4 years.

support trans people *now* while we can still ask for help & make incredible art in public.

Seems like the right path

Looks beautiful

I always really liked this episode. Big reveals about Delenn, some depth to the bad guy, and William Morgan Sheppard’s amazing voice.

Do you really have to use a third party app on BlueSky to edit posts?

Because I'd much rather edit than have to be a proofreader.

Today and in the coming days, remember

Deep breath, America. We can do this.

And, subtle shadows of bamboo on bamboo."

1. A 15th century Japanese playwright wrote of the portals to yūgen:

"To watch the sun sink behind a flower-clad hill.

To wander on in a huge forest without thought of return.

To stand upon the shore and gaze after a boat that disappears behind distant islands.

I looked it up, just to confirm. Generally a decent summation of a Japanese word. More in the comments on its pearly use.

When I experience it, it’s among the most meaningful experiences in my life.

I watched it about 20 years, a few years after it wrapped. Great stuff, and was just talking about it with my actual brother, who also watched it last week.

I never heard as much buzz on the Pacific follow-up, but I'm curious.

Hey so any of the folks who claimed — without evidence — that Biden was profiting off of the Presidency:

Any comment about Trump and his wife dropping new shitcoins on inauguration weekend?

I’m an Oz nerd going back to the 80s and Eric Shannower’s graphic novels. I’m also a comics retailer (Rogues Gallery; Round Rock, TX) and I had a chance to sneak a read of this early.

It’s really good! Really feels like you’re walking around in Oz, and some of the more remote corners at that.

I love how Denmark isn’t taking any shit from Donald Trump. 🇩🇰 🤣

I knew it would be visually spectacular, and it was, with many scenes like paintings brought to life, but I also really liked the story and characters in this third incarnation of the famous silent movie. I expect I’ll be turning it over in my head for a bit. A strong first impression.
