I adore Terence stamp for so many roles and moments. This is one of the best. 💔

On our SDCC panel, @daphneolive.bsky.social—who went from fandom podcasting to working on TV—talked about the balance the Percy Jackson writers have to strike adapting books that have been so fundamental to younger readers. ✨ Watch or read a full transcript: www.fansplaining.com/articles/sdc...

I think my favorite hobby is to be on my favorite podcasts as a podcast listener. First House of R with Joanna and now this. I’m in an ep of @fansplaining.bsky.social now ❤️

Couldn't make it to SDCC? Fansplaining's panel from Saturday is now online! ✨ With video and a full transcript. Featuring the brilliant @megfitz89.bsky.social, @tessagratton.bsky.social, @lincodega.com, @brentclambert.bsky.social, @okbjgm.bsky.social, & @daphneolive.bsky.social!

Went to #SDCC and I could not have asked for a better start and end. Percy Jackson S2 panel to begin the festivities and IWTV S3 panel on my last night. I am so so proud of the PJO actors, their poise, and togetherness, and the wonderful people they are. (The EPs are not too shabby as well 💙)

Thank you! What fun!

Good morning SDCC—today's the day! 😎 Come to the SD Central Library at noon to see @daphneolive.bsky.social, @tessagratton.bsky.social, @lincodega.com, @brentclambert.bsky.social, @megfitz89.bsky.social, & @okbjgm.bsky.social talk about fandom creativity, fan to pro transitions, and much more!

Me —> SDCC, baby!

Thinking of you, @camphalfblood.bsky.social 💙

So, I guess I get to cancel one of my way too many streaming services.

So excited to chat with this awesome group of people, moderated by @elizabethminkel.bsky.social, dear friend and once upon a time guest on @blacksailscast.bsky.social 🖤

So excited to be on my first ever panel at my first ever San Diego Comic-Con! My Black Sails / The Old Man / Percy Jackson and the Olympians selves will all be one. Hope to see you there!

Proof I’m a fab auntie. Sent to me from Ireland just now:

Does anyone know the story of how they chose to name the company Palantir? I used to think it was funny and a result of misunderstanding literature. Lately started thinking it is a way scarier reasoning.

The insane, cold, hyper-intelligent villain of every other movie from my childhood didn’t believe the human race should survive in its current form, wanted to free us of the limitations of our bodies, and believed that immortality was possible (and desirable). Why are we messing w/these guys?

This isn’t the first time I have recommended an episode of NPR’s Throughline podcast and it wont be the last. They are brilliant and always my go to for history told well and thoroughly. For context in the history of the US and Iran: open.spotify.com/episode/7flr...

My sumner goal: spend part of every day listening to an audiobook while crocheting. Wish me luck!

Hey! Going to be on my very first panel at SDCC on my very first time at SDCC! Excited to chat with this group of people and if you haven’t listened to @fansplaining.bsky.social, it is one of my absolute favorites!

the head of this Leviathan, in the creature’s living intact state, is an entire delusion

If I read or hear “waving Mexican flags” one more time… How many parades and protests and cultural events and establishments in the US involve flags from peoples’ families’ countries of origin? That is one of the *beautiful* aspects of our country!

Don't let Trump and Musk's feud obscure their fundamental agreement: Both men and the party they own are committed to taking as much as possible from Americans who need help in order to give to those who have more than they could ever want www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

I love that an awful video clip is inspiring wonderful stories about human interactions on public transportation and in cities.

Carol Burnett cameo on Hacks means I need to watch The Carol Burnett from beginning to end. She is and always has been my favorite.

DAGGERHEART LAUNCHES TOMORROW 🫣

It’s here!! I am so so proud of @therowanhall.bsky.social @spenserstarke.bsky.social and @eliserezendes.bsky.social for this epic feat of beauty. I am so honored to say that #Daggerheart is the first TTRPG I have played, and nothing beats playing a game with your beloved friends who made it.

Everyone is talking about the big businesses and tariffs. Be ready for so many small businesses to fail this year. It is so sad. open.spotify.com/episode/1KeA...

“And so the Greeks send me this horse, we’re talking about one of the most beautiful horses you’ve ever seen. So big. So strong. Normally they keep this kind of horse for themselves but they were such big fans they said sir, please take our big wonderful horse we’ll even bring it to your house”

I can be counted on to always applaud pieces like this 🔥

I have decided that prom exists, at least in part, to ease the parents’ bittersweet transistion to their future life of an empty nest. It brings back a lovely taste of the days of small children doing crafts because you spend the weekend finding sparkly things all over your house. A delight 💖

I just really need everybody to understand that everything that’s happening in and to the global economy now (and all the businesses and people in it) is the entirely predictable result of the intentional decisions of one guy who doesn’t understand how the global economy works.

Rewatching Andor Season 1. A balm for the soul in these times.

okay this is an emergency assistance thread for anyone who got this National Endowment for the Arts email today some of you can still get your money and I’m going to tell you how article to come later this weekend but here is the Cliffs Notes version:

When will @support.bsky.team allow for uploaded gifs for those of us with amazing saved libraries?

I find this ‘movie you have seen more than # times’ thing. My list is so long - even without Star Wars and LOTR. I am absolutely a movie rewatcher. But the one I have watched the most?

One of the wonderful things about being a craftsperson is that you can collect your friends’ work and then visit with them through the things they made with their hands.

There ain't a hell hot enough

In a time of so many depressing things, seeing what feels like a prank takeover of the NOAA account is up there. If only this was just a prank.

🔥

Sounds like it’s a mistake to leave public goods in the hands of billionaires who can decide at any moment they’re bored and don’t want to support them anymore bsky.app/profile/clar...

Dem leaders and operatives saying “focus on pocketbook issues,” completely miss that due process *is* a pocketbook issue. Tourists, students, investors, citizens all depend on rule of law. Just because lawlessness is state-sponsored, doesn’t mean it ain’t crime, and crime is bad for the economy.

this is such good news. i think it is also an opportunity for democrats to state forthrightly that when they win power again everyone responsible for this crime will be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law and will face the american people to answer for their lawlessness

I am so immensely proud of this cast and crew. Honored that sometimes I get to be on set to witness how this ecosystem of the best most talented people comes together to make this show I love and love to be a part of. The crew especially - people who embrace these amazing kids every day with love

One of the best moments of our podcasting days. After our first interview with @tobyschmitz.bsky.social and his impromptu alt universe stories, @tearose1536.bsky.social wanted to see Jack Rackham writing #Featherdelle fanfic. Our post season 3 interview with Toby: open.spotify.com/episode/442o...

So happy for everyone. Recognition for all the hard work by this group of talented wonderful people. I am so lucky to get to be part of this delightful story and storytelling community 💙

When the [I’ll choose to say least informed] people are now about to be in charge of your government. Also, socialized medicine - or feel free to use a world that triggers Americans less - is good! We should have it!

Sometimes the combination of arrogance and ignorance is breathtaking. Yes, US health care has high admin costs; that's because it relies so much on private insurers. Govt-run health insurance has much lower overhead
