I'm privileged to be enjoying a rare day off of work today, but this emergency cancelation was the result of social unrest around the city. I deeply hope for the Moroccan people that their cries will be heard and that the next step will be clear movement toward an improved quality of life for all.

After work, I discovered that the best way to fall asleep is to count backwards from 100 in French. By 76, my brain was so tired and upset that it gave up and surrendered to physical exhaustion. Best nap of the year. Also, most unhinged language I've ever counted in.

Every day we grow that much closer to the arrival of group chats in Bluesky!

I just made my son practice for IB Spanish class by preparing an impromptu oral presentation on the cultural significance of the 6-7 meme. He totally killed it. I think he's going to do just fine in Spanish.

One second I was playing with audio settings in Netflix, and the next I had watched all of KPDH in French (quality dubbing imo, way better than the Latin American Spanish).

It’s September 7th Which means it’s 7 of 9

We reached this scene in our family re-watch tonight. My husband remarked, "It was at this moment that the rest of the rebels realized why they had been sent on a full-day recon mission the day before."

Also this is where I finally acquired a physical copy of one of my all-time favorite comics.

I'd like to draw your attention to the incredible decor at Akira Comics in Madrid. I think I spend two hours in there.

Very important information for those of us who can't get to LA to obtain the physical copy of the Andor Emmy promo zine.

It's been nearly a year since I migrated from the bird site and I'm so grateful for the tranquility & great vibes here. But Pat's High Republic post took me back in there and I saw just how active the Star Wars community remains over there. I miss a lot of those people and I wish they were here 😔.

As a person living outside the US, I will never stop yelling about this. You all have actual gold mines in your neighborhoods. Please go to the library! If nothing else, because you CAN!

I'd like to draw your attention to this absolutely gorgeous pin being sold by designs.by.joe on Instagram.

Kay Vess, ND-5, Nix, and the Trailblazer! #StarWarsOutlaws fanart, since it's been a while since a game has grabbed me this much <3

Quote this with a book you read way too young that explains why you are the way you are. (Yeah turns out it's not healthy to require an over-achiever to read this from cover to cover at the age of TEN.)

LEIA: I saw an interesting crime report today LEIA: it said on coruscant someone gets hit by a blaster every 94 seconds HAN SOLO: wow HAN SOLO: that poor guy

Sometimes out of absolutely nowhere I remember a particular artists' rendition of a character I love. Today it was Uzuri Art's Rogue and Gambit.

I randomly watched the film Sneakers (1992) today and it was everything you could want in an early-90s caper movie. A stellar cast that's pretty dynamic together.

I might not say it out loud. But if someone tells me they use ChatGPT for stuff, my immediate thought, every time: “why, how lame of you.”

I've been updating a friend as I play through Star Wars Outlaws. He comments about traversing the incredible environments, gameplay functions, storytelling. My reactions are less sophisticated.

Back in the day there were these things called "fan fiction" and "fan art".

I was up at 5:30am reading the finale for the characters who have been growing alongside me for 4½ years. I'm so proud of them, and so grateful to the immensely talented humans who brought them to life. Thank you, you Luminous Beings, not just for the stories but for the community they assembled.✨

And here we are. STAR WARS: THE HIGH REPUBLIC - THE FINALE hits the stands, bringing my seven year High Republic journey to an end. So many thoughts and emotions today. You can read more at: www.cavletter.com/saying-goodb...

Finally got to see Fantastic 4! We both loved it 💙. Interesting data point: the audience in our theater was 100% female: a few moms/daughters, and a group of teenage girls. It was also the most pleasant movie experience I've had in my entire adult life. Really wild.

Post your lock screen. (Dispatches from the Occlusion Zone Ty Yorrick you are a legend)

Kit Fisto is coming in Tides of Terror 1 by @georgemann.bsky.social from @darkhorse.com

This goes for so many of us! In January 2021 I was facing some of the most terrifying decisions in my life and then THR, these authors & artists, and the amazing community of fans came along and really gave me the hope I needed to move forward. ✨

It’s about to go down!

So Rashida Tlaib was censured when she stood against the occupation. But cheering on actual war crimes and babies dying? That's OK, I guess. The US government is so horribly lost.

Alan Cumming on bathroom bills: "Why on earth would a rapist go through the bother of pretending to be trans in a country that treats rapists better than trans people."

This has GOT to be the wrong timeline. 😣

This is heartbreaking. Our Theo. 😢

Please help: how do we ethically support current/new Star Trek without supporting Paramount+?

💸💕Ight good news & bad news: Good news is I’m in the home stretch of my employment search right now and should be working again VERY soon. Bad news is I got 3 DAYS to get rent paid or we’re getting kicked. $0/1500 (honestly it’s more like 2000 but I’ll figure out the rest) Thanks in advance.💕💸

Love that Andor is rightfully being recognized for its excellence, but the entire cast deserves more recognition for their truly breathtaking performances.

As I progress in my High Republic finale catch-up, I can't help but cackle at Fear of the Jedi Marchion Ro vs. Manga Marchion Ro. 💜

Having become the latest willing victim of KPop Demon Hunters, I am now convinced this is a Queer allegory, whether or not that was the intention.

Mr. Mamdani, which squadmate did you leave behind on Virmire? DID YOU FREE THE RACHNI QUEEN, MR. MAMDANI?!
