Oh no I’m about to get back into the sims They made a royalty expansion, and dynastic gameplay has basically been how I’ve always played the game 😅 www.youtube.com/watch?v=iyMI...

Wait the Falcon ride makeover will have Coruscant on it? I am now 100% behind this change.

I will of course, wear my white formal gloves to meet Princess Leia at Galaxy’s Edge, just as I did when I met Anna and Elsa.

I had to take a passport-style photo just now, so I’m beyond pleased that I was wearing my brand new Athena’s aegis holiday sweater for the photo.

IMO Percy Jackson by Rick Riordan shows more creativity and artistic merit than the Odyssey by Christopher Nolan, at least judging by the trailer. We’ll see if it has anything interesting to say when it comes out or if it’s just a grey dull retread. PJO was and is genuinely impactful.

Warlord Zsinj is that you???? www.ilm.com/star-wars-be...

Thinking about this piece I wrote a while back. For no particular reason. eleven-thirtyeight.com/2021/01/why-...

I was not informed that we would be doing a turkey trot this morning, so I got to run my first 5K in 21 years without practice. Was not the most pleasant experience but I survived. Something to be thankful for. :p

Met Matt Stover twenty years ago at Celebration III and told him how much I loved his Caine books and I got to recreate that moment today commemorating the ROTS Anniversary Edition at NYCC.

Kristin Baver is going to write her Star Wars short fiction debut in Insider with an upcoming Rey story! Congratulations, @kristinbaver.bsky.social !!!!

An upcoming SW Visions story about a lone Jedi and a rumored droid’s paradise!

First novel in Star Wars genre fiction initiative. A YA romance novel to lead off! A daughter of a ship’s captain falling for a stowaway.

Now THIS is a Star Wars comic announcement.

Hallmark made a TIE Avenger ornament!! Trying to imagine telling this to my 1994 self, who’d never have believed it. www.hallmark.com/ornaments/ke...

Observing some local customs.

I have literally only read the first page of the author’s note and I’m already delighted.

Hello there.

who is playing baby yogurt?

It has somehow become a weekly tradition that my colleagues gift me cheese. I am delighted.

The new Fire Emblem game is literally all I can think about right now — somehow it gave me exactly what I wanted. www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCO4...

“I hope Jay’s okay.”

Tomer Darpen??? www.reddit.com/r/interestin...

ALERT: my eyes were drawn to this random church and it turns out it was the very inspiration for Elsa’s coronation chapel in Frozen Best day ever

Visited Delphi today — I found it incredibly meaningful. Not only getting to see the Omphalos — the navel of the world — but also visiting the Castalian Spring. I didn’t realize they had a little fountain that let you drink from the actual spring! This is so magical. I’m floating on clouds.

Found an Acolyte fan in Greece

Tonight’s entertainment is inside the Odeon of Herodes Atticus.

My favorite part of our tour of the Athenian Acropolis and agora was that the tour guide kept looking to me to confirm the facts she was sharing were accurate and/or to supplement her information 😂

Happy birthday to America from the birthplace of democracy! Pictured: 1) Acropolis 2) the Bouleterion in the Agora 3) the Areopagus 4) the Pnyx itself. Details in alt text. Athens is like some magical dream land, I can’t believe it took me so long to get here.

Not a bad hotel room view…

It completely boggles my mind that people just WALK RIGHT BY the Antikythera Mechanism without sparing it a glance but that means more time for me to ogle it

At a wedding and the bride’s sister told me she was specifically channeling Mon Mothma in her choice of outfit 😍

Yoshi was always my fav but in the new Mario Kart he’s perfect.

Niamos!

Apparently they made a diecast of Mon Mothma’s limo??? I had to have it, so I imported it along with Luthen’s Fondor Haulcraft for good measure. Alas there is no drunk Perrin mini fig to come with the limo.

Why are mosquitos

Visiting an old friend.

I couldn’t resist a Thrawn figure that finally had EU-style epaulettes. (Did I purposely block Pelly’s face with light glare? Who can say.)

Krennic, whispering: “Uncle Harlo sends his regards.”

No — take him back, we don’t want him.

If #Andor had gotten the 5 season treatment, I fully believe we would have gotten a "Perrin Alone" episode and it would have been glorious.

I'm dying to know what Kleya, Vel, Wil, etc. did after Yavin -- so I'll make up their story myself by modding them into Star Wars: Rebellion! Proof of concept below--need to clean up the character art, but I'm excited to continue the #Andor characters stories in a video game that suit them

When intelligence failures have draven you off a cliff it’s time to get cracken on a solution

Just how am I supposed to cope with the end of #Andor? What is there to look forward to watching now?* *Rogue One obviously, but you know what I mean.

Highly unlikely but I hope the pope reinstates the full grand coronation ceremony. We haven’t had one since 1963.

Once again no Sixtus VI. The dream of Sisto Sesto remains deferred.

Please, no pope spoilers. I’m waiting for the official release. 😜

I’m so glad they updated the costumes guide for the second batch of Andor episodes. These costumes are so exquisite. All I ever wanted from the Star War: Coruscanti couture.

Star Wars actors in Roman period pieces, thread continued from the bad place. Adding an Andor character, plus one I missed from R1 1) Alaïs Lawson (Enza Rylanz) — Marcella [Domina] 2) Beau Gadsden (Young Jyn) — Antonia Minor [Domina] Bonus: Roman dodecahedron artifact spotted in Luthen’s Gallery

So grateful for a behind the scenes about the costuming with photos of all the fancy outfits www.starwars.com/news/andor-s...
