Dealing with an out of nowhere bed bug scare is: A) not how I want my time off from work to go and B) a craptacular way to end 2025 and start 2026. 👾……bah!!

2025 was a big year. After taking a hiatus in 2024, we returned with a revamped look, but same mission. We held numerous screenings, and had our largest fundraising ever (with help from @jamesgunn.bsky.social himself)! Here’s to helping more kids experience the joy of film in 2026!

I borrowed Wilco's "Star Wars" from the library for exactly the reason you might expect.

$100/1000 so far, thank you so much

We had a 50+ degree temperature swing in 24 hrs. Usually you only get to see that in disaster films unless you live in the Midwest.

Me, just now learning there’s a Ghibli film that repeatedly uses John Denver’s “Take Me Home, Country Roads.”

The real Christmas miracle is getting a used entry level professional scanner from Goodwill with no power cord for a fraction of the price of a new one and it works!

You've been kidnapped. The characters from the last TV show you watched are trying to rescue you. Who's coming to save you? (This works!)

This was work writing, but I was new, and was told to go to second most senior person to have them provide review/edits. I followed said review edits, took it to the senior person, who then lambasted me for the very changes I had just made. -_-

Holy heck does Jiang Ziya go hard right out of the gate. So many scenes waiting to be air brushed on the side of a van. (Sucky part is no Mandarin language option)

Now to go finish Nhe Za so I can watch the sequel. I stopped right after the good guy used his flatulence to put the magic paint brush within reach.

Well, well, well, the tables have turned, haven’t they Mr. Klaus?

And THAT is how you cracker an otter.

The end of the year is upon us, so it's time to answer the big question — what was the worst thing you watched in 2025?

The holiday season just got wild with the delivery of the used professional scanner that was bought from goodwill without being tested and no power cord. This will either be the season of joy (while slowly scanning slides and photographs) or the gnashing of reposting for parts on ebay.

Historians do what they do because they are passionate and love what they study. The fire that burns in my wife’s eyes when she’s discovering something in the depths of microfilm is magnificent.

Even if you don't like the MCU, you'll like MCU: The Reign of Marvel Studios. It's a fun, fast read. I continually tear pages from my copy of X-Men #410 and burn them in sacrifice for a hopeful sequel.

That being said, if anyone happens to have any leads on roles in editorial, comms, PR, or community management, I'd appreciate a link! I'm trying to move out of content writing.

Anastasia is a Christmas movie right? I can slip it in between How the Grinch Stole Christmas and Rudolph the Red Nose Reindeer, right?

I was pretty proud of my ice tea until the styrofoam cup suddenly broke and it all crashed to the ground in a splash of tea water and ice. But otherwise, no complaints about this Tuesday.

Fun fact. Glen Close performed all her scenes on an 18" platform for this film. But seriously, I love seeing stage craft like this.

I appreciate it's in the original, as I cannot bring myself to watch the sequel anymore due to a momentary cameo.

I gotta believe that when you take the core age demographic of people who watch the Oscars and overlap it with the core age demographic who use Youtube, in the center are maybe a few hundred people.

hi, have you asked your local comic book shop to get our SUPERNATURAL: VALENTINE'S DAY SPECIAL yet? Out February 4th, 2026! www.dynamite.com/htmlfiles/vi... ps graphic design is my passion etc

I've put together a quick interest check on a cosplay-focused newsletter I'm thinking of starting! Q's mostly center around what you'd like to see in this kind of newsletter and are just a way to help me gauge interest. 😊 I'd appreciate any shares and responses! #cosplay forms.gle/9oJEnySgei8i...

One of my favorite line standing memories was waiting to see this movie, having left early from work to be sure to get a good seat. Everyone was excited and just loving Star Wars.

Someone claimed they couldn’t pronounce Carpathia and I guess that’s how you say you’ve never seen this movie without saying you’ve never seen it:

In stores this Wednesday ENDEAVOUR #2 from @dstlry.bsky.social by writing wizard @stephsmash.bsky.social lettering legend @tenapolitano.bsky.social colourist beyond compare Lee Loughridge and me at the drawing board. Sorry to flood your feeds but I worked my ass off to bring you this book :)

Got me a Christmas treat.

Any reservations had about this film just end with seeing Andrew Koji is one of the stars. He rocks every role. (HERE THAT NETFLIX, GIVE US MORE WARRIOR)

Read our excellent #Supergirl coverage by Mike Manalo on @thenerdsofcolor.bsky.social! thenerdsofcolor.org/2025/12/11/i...

Me at drive thru: Hi, I'd like an ice tea. Drive thru employee: Hi, here's your Hi-C. Me:

Me, listening to classical music: Ah, that's Mozart. [internal thought] Glad I watched Amadeus recently!

Count me in to see Mr. Stanton does with another crack at a live action feature. Though, this is apparently getting the Prey treatment of going straight to Hulu.

I have a $30 X-mas present gift coming to me today. It's a 12 can case of Ale8. No, I will not be taking question.

Urgent because rent is due tomorrow. Please help. 💕💸

They want to control CNN desperately.

I was lucky enough to see John Williams conduct the Seattle Symphony in 2017, and he told us the same story about how much he loved Rey. I've always wanted to write about it, and today I had the chance!

I haven’t had enough caffeine to deal with this yet. So now you have to too

Pixar really did some amazing lighting in Elio.

Earlier today A Man on the Inside lampooned a billionaire who wanted his head on a robot dog to run around scaring people as a way to honor him for a big donation. The show also repeatedly slams AI.

I saw Season 3 of Loot was back on AppleTv, and took too long to appreciate what I was missing. Grrrr, it's great tv.

We’re so quick and funny to make resurrected Jesus jokes, but ignore the Baby Jesus in a manger jokes. … How did the three wise men greet baby Jesus when they saw him in the manger? HAY! … Kay, maybe go back to the zombie jokes.

I’m 2/3 through Shin Godzilla which is totally the Godzilla with Eva smashed together glory I expected. I’m still mixed on the separating lower mandible, and I’ve reached level nine of subtitle speed reading.

Ah, that special time of year when Columbia brings out the Star Wars brand items that are priced for the high income Star Wars fans.

Dr Aphra: Where are my girlfriends? Marvel Exec: We thought the comic would be more 'approachable' with familiar faces Aphra: Then why even bother having me in the comic? At this point- *Uncanny Valley Han Solo steps into the foreground, completely obscuring the title character*
