The two major effects of my grandparents leaving Canada for the U.S. are that we basically don’t really do Thanksgiving and I call rain gutters “eavestroughs” and I find that very funny.

More Ron Moore AOL fan interactions from the 90s.
The first one deals with fan entitlement - the delusion that every true fan believes as they do and that they have ownership over the show because they care so much.

If you ever see me ranking all the Star Wars movies please know I have done so against my will. (Not because I don’t think there’s a WIDE variety in quality but because I find it extremely tedious.)

My first thought when I saw this was Bell narrating the story as Mary Magdalene as Gossip Girl, which honestly would kinda slap.
Fox announced a massive new podcast on the life of Jesus starring Kristen Bell as the voice of Mary Magdalene.
Bell was blindsided by the announcement saying she recorded the audio for a separate project 15 years ago.

Kristen Bell Is the Star of a New Jesus Podcast From Fox. No One Told Her
Fox's new Jesus podcast features Kristen Bell as the voice of Mary Magdalene. Bell, however, recorded the audio 15 years ago for a different project.

You know what weird insignificant Star Wars sequel trilogy detail I badly want to know? If Harrison Ford really did insist that Kylo Ren’s real name be Ben, what was it BEFORE that? Was it Bail? (Not Jacen, because that sucked in ‘93, sorry Tim.) Did they even have an original choice?

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

I’m not a Trekkie but I’ve done enough basic research into the Star Trek fandom to know women basically invented it, and are why the show even continued to exist. This kind of writing is part of institutional sexism that denies women’s accomplishments and role in history and it infuriates me

The two biggest missed opportunities of the sequels are both ideas that could still work post-TROS with a bit of creativity:
1. Active and extended Ben Solo redemption.
2. A stormtrooper rebellion led and/or inspired by Finn.
Disney execs need to get off YouTube and listen to actual creatives.

I don’t know if the library systems can even edit the descriptions but why am I seeing hardcover details for an eBook? It’s completely irrelevant and this is at least the second time I’ve seen it in Libby.

The sentient Halloween decorations want attention, but not too much attention. (Unless they do!) They are deeply intrigued when a single piece of furniture is moved. They have established a secret lair in the basement.

So while I’m not thrilled that the explosion of romantasy means I’m actually reading more male authors, I am quite pleased to discover Robert Jackson Bennett. (Loved the two Shadow of the Leviathan books; Now halfway through Foundryside.)

A reminder that "But what if people on YOUR side are on the Epstein list?" is a bullshit argument, EVERYONE who was raping children needs to get into the bin right now, that's the deal here and it ain't exactly complicated
Bill Clinton mentioned during the Epstein press conference, which is a shock, because he's such a stand up guy with no former sexual misconduct accusations against him
