I am enjoying Physical Asia, a show in which teams from several Asian countries compete in various physical challenges. I am rooting for team Mongolia.

I am scared to read unfinished enemies to lovers fics b/c what if they never get updated and now the characters I am shipping are enemies forever!!!!

Bring back TV movies

please remember: part of why anti-ICE movements across the country are able to function as well as they are is because they are able to get the news out and get support via the internet therefore, doing your part to pressure your reps to defend internet speech is one (of many) ways to help!

It’s hard to imagine someone more universally enjoyed than Catherine O’Hara where the opinions range from “I like her and her work” to “I love her and her work” and that’s a pretty good legacy

If you want to help keep whistles flowing in WA, here are some great options: Hanwiskan has NINE 3D printers running fullstop on whistles. Help him out with some new hotends: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/... Ryan in West Seattle - www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

ReedPop's parent company RELX currently holds multimillion-dollar contracts with ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement). So maybe its time to start attending and supporting fan run conventions again. actionnetwork.org/petitions/st...

Making a wedding dress out of old doilies and scraps of lace is fun - I can't wait to cover it with dirt and blood.

recently learned about “dek bass”, a sound system culture in rural West Bengal, using cassette decks and homemade systems, and it’s remarkable because 1) the music and equipment are sick and 2) the DJ always looks like he’s being briefed on a national security issue

I have spent the evening harvesting lace. Koi and Goodwill have been very good to me. Tomorrow there will be sewing and hot glue.

I have been cold all day, so I am making a shepherd's pie for dinner because the oven heats up the whole house.

is he familiar with Jin Shengtan's "thirty three nice things" - www.burninghou.se/p/whats-good

this whole otome boyfriend cosplay date thing is fascinating www.youtube.com/watch?v=2zHi...

I am working on a creepy drag look and I need texture! Back in the day, every thrift store was overflowing with crochet doilies, stained lace tablecloths, and abandoned wedding gowns. Now everything is made of polyester and sadness.

Washington State residents - this age verification bill made it impossible for BlueSky to operate in some states. Don't let ours be one of them. Write your reps! lawfilesext.leg.wa.gov/biennium/202...

It’s the anniversary of the Great Molasses Flood. Here’s @evandorkin.bsky.social to explain.

Saint Sebastian's Feast Day is a week away. 🫢 Are you ready to lean into the chaos that will be the 6th annual bake-this-random-Saint-into-a-bread-item experience?

I'm cold and sad and lonely. Does anyone want to come to my house and watch Creation of the Gods 1 : Kingdom of Storms and Creation of the Gods 2 : Demon Forge this weekend? www.youtube.com/watch?v=0ucT...

Remembering the nine delights has been comforting for me today. Here they are if anyone else needs them.

When I first joined The Untamed fandom I was told that there are certain celebrities who I was expected to dislike. In one case it was Simon Gong. Why? Because Word of Honor had a similar marketing strategy to The Untamed.

I'm not saying you have to like every piece of media you engage with - I'm just saying you need to give things a chance, especially things that are outside of your comfort zone.

"I will never watch a show with (name of artist) because their fans are jackasses" is a great way to completely block off a potential source of joy in your life. Enjoy your little hermit cave I guess.

Found the coolest website that takes random found cassette tapes people submit and digitizes them. I’m listening to an NYC hip hop station from 1994: intertapes.net

Has anyone played Road to Empress? roadtoempress.com/en/index.html It is a choose your own adventure C-ent game filmed on some VERY familiar sets.

Wishing a very happy birthday to Todd Haynes, one of American independent cinema's most daring and subversive voices! On the Channel, celebrate the master stylist with his visually intoxicating POISON, disturbing psychological drama SAFE and lush, Sirkian melodrama FAR FROM HEAVEN.

There were only a couple of fireworks in my neigborhood last night. They started at 11:50 and ended by 12:15. Totally acceptable. The dog didn't even wake up.

Artist friends - have any of you sold art through INPRNT? I want to buy a couple of small prints, but I want to make sure that the artists are treated fairly. www.inprnt.com/artists/

Life of Chuck is not for me, but if you need to watch something blandly inoffensive with your family it is basically harmless.

Life of Chuck is very clearly Stephen King doing his best Ray Bradbury impression. That is not a complaint just an observation. I'm only part way through it so who am I to judge?

I made a robe this weekend - the first sewing project I have completed that I would/will willingly wear out of the house. It is vibrantly floral. I have a whole obnoxiously pink outfit planned around it.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

Well, this robe is certainly going to be colorful. I ran out of the floral fabric (the store only had a couple of yards left) so I am using a different fabric for the sleeves and trim.

I plan on using the day to work on some kind of creative project. I spent some time looking at Sue Kreitzman's art the other day, and I am feeling colorful. www.inigo.com/almanac/a-ho...

Freaking love this city and all the people in it so much….a bunch of people went and turned the 4 train into the Polar Express giving out toys to kids along the way from the Bronx to Brooklyn….shoutout to the @newyorkers.live account on IG for doing this 🙏 www.instagram.com/reel/DSnsvWS...

It's my birthday today! ✨🕯️ I would be very grateful for shares of my art as a little gift while I'm waiting for the cake to be done 🔥🎂

Hope everyone is having a very Happy Holidays! Someone has posted ETU2 subbed until ep6 for you to enjoy!

I just got back from seeing Ghezi Town, a war movie about displaced Chinese refugees under attack by Japanese soldiers, I'm not going to spoil it - but Xaio Zhan was really good in it, and I feel like I am watching him grow as a performer with each role. Can't wait to see him in Spying!

Merry Christmas from our skeleton to yours.

I hope you are all enjoying your Winter Holidays. We are watching The Thin Man and I am considering a nap.

Just a couple of movie-mad fellas, Brian Alter and Jonathan Marlow from @scarecrowvideo.bsky.social, introducing Geoff Murphy's dystopian drama at @grandillusioncinema.org's December member screening at @nwfilmforum.bsky.social. As the year draws to a close, I'm grateful for these fine non-profits.

Any artists who've had their careers or work tasks impacted by gen AI, please consider taking this survey and reporting your experiences. This research will hopefully be very impactful.

Reminder: You are not irresponsible if you choose not to watch that 60 Minutes story. In times like this, it is vital to prioritize your own mental health.

I bought this art print from dappermouth.storenvy.com because I love goats. Now my bedroom looks like a Satanic lair and I don't have the energy to live deliciously.

I have started referring to my daily latte as my "Six Demon Bag" - this is what happens when you go to Egg Shen's coffee shop.
