The new #AKnightoftheSevenKingdoms episode was so good! The soundtrack for Prince Baelor’s entrance was 🤌 It reminded me of Daenerys’ music in #GameofThrones for whenever she did something epic.

Also the armour looks so cool!

Finally working on my blog again. I’ve done a detailed About page to explain what I hope to do with it. My first blog post will be coming out soon :)

Antonia au Severus-Julii is such a professional hater, always ready to cause chaos (and not in a fun way)

These pics of Sasha Luss suits her so much.

My feelings towards #EastEnders atm:

What's Working For Me:
- Oscar, Lauren, Max
- The Bea mystery
- The B&B as a community setting
- Elaine and Ian's rivalry
- Nigel, Julie and the Mitchells
- Ravi's comeuppance

What's Not Working For Me
- Jasmine's storyline
- Vicki/Zack affair

I'm really enjoying the B&B - sorry Boutique Hotel as a setting on #EastEnders

Elaine is the perfect character to run the place and her feud with Ian is hilarious but also layered (after today's episode).

We will find out for sure on 28 May 2027. #StarWarsStarfighter

Just saw the video of the second shooting in Minnesota, and it's just sickening. He was held on the ground by multiple people and they still shot him - why? :(

I'm so behind on #TheTraitors lol, need to catch up this weekend!
January 23, 2026 at 10:58 PM
Burst out of my comfort zone this evening. I went to a social event and even showed someone the #MaulShadowLord trailer lol

The animation for #MaulShadowLord looks fantastic, can't wait for the show!

A bit disappointed there's only 10 episodes than the usual 16 we got for The Bad Batch. But if the story is good then I don't care.

I'm up to the part in #GoldenSon where Darrow forgives Tactus, I don't know if Darrow kills him but I'm scared to find out #RedRising

I feel like this is the first social media platform where I've been more myself - positive, negative, warts and all.

That was an emotional end to this week's episodes of #TheTraitors. Stephen's story really resonated with me, to see him be so fully himself now makes me happy :)

Great read from Deadline, you can tell Kathleen Kennedy has a real passion for filmmaking. I'm forever grateful she helped bring to life so much of what I currently love about #StarWars such as #TheHighRepublic, #Andor, Grogu, Rey and more.

Film(s) sound good or a miniseries.

I don't think it should be an ongoing series, there isn't enough story for that (from what I read in #FireandBlood). I read that a while ago so who knows?
‘AEGON’S CONQUEST’ is being developed with 2 possible paths:

• HBO series
• Massive Dune-sized feature film for theaters

I try to remember these people on TV are just people like us (and of course the editing) but sometimes they really do test you.

Reading #GoldenSon from the #RedRising saga atm and I love Mustang

#EastEnders was great this week, I enjoyed:
- Jean's storyline
- Jasmine getting used to the Slaters
- Linda and Honey at the school reunion and meeting Bea (the highlight, so funny!)
- Nicola and Harry getting revenge on Ravi.
