I’m actually thinking about letting Freegal go to free up the money for Hoopla and/or Kanopy. We only have like 6-8 people a month using Freegal.  At least Hoopla and Kanopy appear to be “per use” priced so if only a few people use them we won’t pay as much. At least that’s how I understand it.

Is it pricey because you have a large population you serve and good broadband infrastructure? I just talked to a rep recently because I was considering getting it for my library, and it sounded like the pricing was all “per use”. I was considering it because my library is a smaller one and I suspect not many people in…

As a librarian, I say thank you for telling people about the benefits of having a library card. :D

Curiously, however, we don’t even see the Trish/Griffin breakup itself, we just see the fallout between Trish and Dorothy afterwards.

Or Victoria Jackson.

I’m about a year behind on my viewing. I finally just watched the season 5 finale. It was fun to immediately pop on the very first episode afterwards and re-watch that.

+ Better Off Dead

This has been a rough year for me because I’m behind on Arrow. So this year I had double the omnipotent omniscient bad guys because I watched Prometheus alongside The Thinker on Flash. 😩

Am I the only one who thought Felicity’s “breaking into an ARGUS black site” ensemble kind of ridiculous? And the detached part of my brain know why a TV production has the unnamed goons all wear masks but not the stars, but the part of my brain engaging with the story still gets annoyed. Why is Felicity breaking into…

What? No love for the other Shining? :)

So excited for this. I laughed at the “Now thwip. Thwip again.” or whatever he said. Just referencing the thwip was brilliant. :)

I absolutely love this brilliant but flawed movie. And I was already 29 when it came out so I wasn’t some tween laughing at the fart jokes. One thing I love that never gets mentioned is that the Shoveler is in a mixed race family and it is treated as absolutely normal, as it it should be. Great cast, funny lines. I…

Starting with the least essential storyline, Joe and Cecile deal with a most unusual pregnancy complication as an increase in her body’s relaxin hormone transforms her mind-reading ability into a full-blown personality transfer, first with the pizza delivery guy and later with Caitlin and Joe.

Now I want to do a Burn Notice re-watch. I never saw the final season.

I am determined to finish this season. I sat down on my couch and let out an audible groan when I saw there were still 3 episodes to slog through. This season has been such a chore.

I heard it was going to be Avengers Forever

Hot Take: I didn’t mind Spider-Man: Homecoming, and thought it was better than Spider-Man 3, The Amazing Spider-Man and The Amazing Spider-Man 2.

I end up watching chunks of Titanic with my wife every so often and that’s been my complaint from the beginning. “So she married and had kids with this other guy, then grandkids, but every night she dreams she’s with another dude?? That’s fucking awful.”

My favorite bad part of this movie is where Silverstone goes down to the Batcave and a computer simulation of Alfred tells her he’s “uploaded my brainwaves to the Bat computer” so he can give her the important plot exposition.

I was really excited to finally have a non-speedster big bad, but the season just went downhill fast. Even Wells isn’t any fun anymore. I think I have six more episodes to go and I’m looking at them like they will be a chore to watch.
