Bear's out of the bag. I'll be moderating the @criticalrole.bsky.social x @primevideo.bsky.social panel at NYCC.

Get ready for all things #MightyNein and #LoVM as we take a look ahead at what's to come in the animated world of Exandria!

“No one cares about anything anymore, I’ll either get away with it or no one will notice” Nihilism is not a long term strategy and you love to see is backfiring.

He is IMPECCABLE in this season. The best villain the franchise has had yet.

@johnpicacio.bsky.social is the amazing artist who designed the Loteria cards that appear in our film and they are available for sale if you’re a fan!

Andy K Lee @andyleeart12.bsky.social · 1d

Who designed the tarot cards in the movie? Would love to know the artist and follow their work!

Kavalier and Clay absolutely wrecked me. I was a blubbering mess, and it was magnificent. Was also just generally aflutter at being in The Met, where I have never had the opportunity to go previously.

Death Becomes Her was a blast and a half. The stagecraft 🤌🏻 the bitchiness 🤌🏻 the costumes 🤌🏻

Sure, sex is great and all. But have you ever peeled your lashes off after wearing them for 13.5 hours?

I’ve never come to New York without catching a show. Was worried that the job situation meant I wouldn’t be able to make it this year, but I am very lucky to have friends who ensured otherwise.

I respect how the universe keeps me humble, honestly.

Today I both:
- Moderated my first panel without outlet backing, which just happened to be my biggest yet with a team of folks I love.
- Was passed on for a full-time gig I was a great fit for.

Humbled, but still feeling great. And tired.

I work damn hard. But, in this business — or any, lately — that doesn’t really matter.

So today I am wildly thankful for a little luck, good friends, great partners, and a deep love for what I do.

See ya on stage 🖤✨

When I saw @thatwitchmia.bsky.social yesterday after being on a plane for 12 hours, she said, “Dolly’s sister asked for prayers, but EVERYTHING IS OK.” I wish I could get all worrying news delivered this way.

“There are just a lot of rumors flying around. But I figured if you heard it from me, you’d know that I was okay,” Dolly Parton said in a new two-minute video posted on Instagram. “I’m not ready to die yet. I don’t think God is through with me. And I ain’t done working.” https://to.pbs.org/4hc1DXB

'I'm not dying': Dolly Parton responds to concerns about her health

Late last month Parton postponed her first Las Vegas residency in 32 years, citing “health challenges.”

Thanks Eric!

I don't know which middle-aged comedians need to hear this, but if you can't tell your friends they're being dumbfucks when they are, in fact, acting as such, you aren't real friends.

You don’t need AI; AI is not “inevitable.” That’s a lie being fed to you by companies who are going to lose a fuckton of money if they don’t convince you that AI is something you can’t live without.

I trim, dye, & style my hair every 4-6 weeks.
I do my own gels (nails).
I've been lucky enough to be in situations where makeup is provided, but have never paid for it.

Hair alone would run me thousands a year with how long it is. It wasn't an expense I was willing to pay while employed. Now? Phew.

Amelia Emberwing @thatwitchmia.bsky.social · 2d

Forever glad that I taught myself to do my own hair, nails and makeup at a young age. Beauty standard conversations notwithstanding, it's a critical skill to be able to do on your own when you're on camera and don't have studio backing or the funds to throw at a salon.

Only hosting from me this year!

I leave for the airport in 12 hours. If you see me in New York tomorrow and I look like a zombie, mind your business.
