You know what has been funny about finally accepting myself and coming out? Realizing that there is this huge chunk of people with similar experiences. Never in my life have I've felt like I belonged more
@rooster Happy to see someone else play ski trips correctly. 👌
@TheSpaceshipper VERY excited for this. ⏳
@TheSpaceshipper It has arrived. Credit to the craters: they were thorough. The framing is pretty amateur looking, so I’m going to take it over to a trusted framing shop today and task them with doing art preservation the right way.
Lurid 1970’s Samurai Cinema
I finished up the sixth, and final, Lone Wolf and Cub film last night. I am in awe of these films. They are somehow adjacent to both El Topo and Dellamorte Dellamore (Cemetary Man), but also Sanjuro, Once Upon a Time in the West, and … Troma? 🤷♀️
Extremely difficult to describe without spoiling, they build on one another in ways both subtle and overt, such that I have to recommend the series as a whole as one art object. (Though, the structure of the fifth film should be called out as particularly interesting).
I watched one a week for six weeks, and that ended up feeling just right: close enough in time to one another to catch the visual and narrative rhymes, but not so close as to wear the repetitions bare .
Best Film Series ever?
Well, certainly my favorite yet!
@tillybridges Awww, I’d forgotten about the crazy progesterone dreams. They went away after awhile for me, but so … interesting while they happened. ☺️
@rooster Sadly, I remember being surprised when it happened at all. #LowExpectations
Earlier this year I built a spreadsheet of sci-fi book recommendations from my followers on Twitter.
For 2023, I've committed to reading one book each month from this list.
I want to share this list with my new friends on #Mastodon and invite you to submit your own favorites to the list!
Here's the spreadsheet where you can review the recommendations and submit your own --> https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16jo7x3cmkQdhpwi8cy5SJcHrLYZJXVZhgabKWtznf-c/edit?usp=sharing
I hope you'll boost to help spread the word!
@brendan This looks like a pretty solid list! Thank you for sharing!
@semidetached OMG. These photos are amaze. I can’t believe I’ve never thought of this!!
When I was in #LosAngeles last weekend, we went to a gallery showing of original artwork inspired by the #LastUnicorn.
This was my favorite piece. Unfortunately, someone had already beat me to it!
Mystery Purchaser, wherever you are: well played.

I just want to thank #AubreyPlaza and #DanMurphy for #TheChristmasWitch - finally, justification to bake Christmas cookies in wildly impractical Halloween costumes with dramatic sleeves.
