The first floor of my home is perfect for me and my husband. There are two open doorways between the kitchen and the TV room, so there’s separation but you’re not totally cut off. We don’t have a formal dining room, our dining room table is almost more of an eat in kitchen— it does bug me a little that we can see all…

As someone who spent Christmas in an open-floor plan house where three small children live, open floor plans can die in a fire. There was no privacy at all, I almost lost my damn mind.

It’s like a self-assigned nickname. You don’t get to do that shit yourself, other people make that call.

But I’m much more attracted to someone who seems kind, intelligent, funny, and fairly comfortable in their own skin, regardless of what that looks like exactly.

Another unforced error was when he endorsed an anti-choice candidate for mayor of Omaha, Nebraska. There was no reason for him to get involved in that race, but he went out of his way to show that he’s cool with politicians who would vote against abortion rights.

I’m so fucking sick of this weird myth that scientists are “just in it for the money” and raking in these big paychecks. My husband works for NASA (not a scientist, but scientist-adjacent) and he has to deal with assholes saying this kind of shit and it’s infuriating. 

My absolute favorite album of the year was Young Enough from Charly Bliss. It’s filled with gorgeous, wistful, dancey music and I listen to the album straight through probably once a week, at least. Here’s the video for the title track:

OHHHH that makes sense. Oh well, wishful thinking on my part! 

I know season 2 is currently being worked on (not sure what stage), and all the toys are scheduled for a May release... any chance we’ll get new episodes that quickly? 

And I see this as a good thing, honestly. Keeping TV shows like Agents of SHIELD and the Netflix/Defenders shows semi-connected (Jessica saying “The guy with the shield” or “the green guy” in the first season) was getting weird and distracting.

Ah. Thanks for clearing that up for me! 

I’m hoping for some Atomic Blonde vibes from the soundtrack.

How is Tom Hanks a supporting nomination? It’s a Mr. Rogers biopic, and he’s playing Mr. Rogers, so that seems pretty “lead actor” to me. Am I missing something (I haven’t seen it) or is this just your run-of-the-mill award show nomination fuckery?

Right? I planned on waiting until the Marvel original shows started coming out to get Disney+. Then I saw Baby Yoda and it was all over. 

I got distinct Eve and Villanelle vibes from that apartment fight.

They were planning to film to versions of the same scene— one with the puppet, and one without that they would insert a CGI Baby Yoda into in post. Herzog saved us form the uncanny valley version, and ensured that we would all be blessed by the One True Baby Yoda.

My favorite little touch: during Eleanor’s funeral, the banner hanging over the bar that reads “YA DEAD!”

Lentil’s still out here doing good work, and he’s got a couple other dogs (and I think a turkey too? They live on a farm) with issues like cleft palates making these visits and working with kids. I think it’s great. It makes kids with disabilities/irregularities feel better about themselves, and it teaches other kids…

Chrissy’s Tweet this morning was perfect. I honestly feel like this might have been her actual reaction when she first learned this news.

“Abraham Lincoln was famously, even within his own Cabinet, surrounded by people who were former political adversaries.”
