“Name a TV show that stars a woman.” I’ll do one better. Murder mysteries aren’t usually my thing, but I was encouraged to broaden what I watch and read so as to improve my writing. I’m so glad I did. These 3 women are tremendous. Jo Martin, Samantha Bond and Cara Horgan are a tour de force. #PBS

A promotional graphic for "The Marlow Murder Club," featuring the show's three lead actors. From left to right, it shows Jo Martin, Samantha Bond, and Cara Horgan standing side-by-side. They are pictured in front of a backdrop that includes a bridge and a church. Jo Martin has long dreadlocks and is wearing a beige top and blue shorts. Samantha Bond has short blonde hair and is wearing a beige cardigan with a blue and white patterned scarf. Cara Horgan has shoulder-length brown hair and is wearing a green jacket over a blue top. Blue and white police tape is visible in the top corners of the image.

What 3 characters helped shape your entire personality at a young age? It was tough to limit it to three (C-3PO and Lindsay Wagner as the Bionic Woman almost made the cut), but here are my three: Lynda Carter as Wonder Woman, Tom Baker as The Doctor, and the Stuart Little character by E.B. White.

Book cover for "Stuart Little" by E.B. White, with illustrations by Garth Williams. The cover features a watercolor illustration of Stuart, a small gray mouse wearing a red shirt and yellow shorts, sailing in a birch bark canoe labeled "SUMMER MEMORIES." He navigates through water surrounded by tall green grasses, with a distant house and trees visible under a pale sky with wispy clouds. The title appears in large black serif letters at the top.

Actor Tom Baker in his role as the Fourth Doctor from Doctor Who. He has voluminous curly dark hair and a broad smile showing teeth. He wears his signature long multicolored striped scarf, a rust-colored velvet jacket, an argyle-patterned sweater vest over a white shirt, and holds a dark fedora hat. The background features a purple haze with rainbow prism light effects streaking across the left side of the frame.

I think that's awesome. I don't think there should be an age limit on whimsy.

I’m in awe of the skill and ingenuity the people who created these rovers possess. Science leads!

Good choice! I see your Patti Lupone witch and I raise you another Patti Lupone witch! 🤩

Lilia Calderu, played by Patti LuPone in Agatha All Along, faces the camera in a dramatic close-up. Her gray, curly hair is piled high, and she wears a colorful burgundy and teal outfit with a necklace. Bright light glows behind her, silhouetting her hair against a dim, atmospheric background.

Happy 60th birthday Star Trek! Thank you for all of the creativity and excellence you inspire, the vision of a humanity unified through equality and service for which you set the standard, and the hope for an optimistic future you have given to millions of fans across the globe. #startrek 🖖

That is an interesting idea!

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

This made me laugh so hard! Great costume and fantastic reference! 🤣

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 04/09/2026

That is cool looking shuttle!

"Post a character you think is cool and give no explanation why." I can't do just one. Too many cool characters out there.

An elderly, alien-like creature known as Aughra with heavily wrinkled brown skin, long grey hair, and ram-like curved horns extending from the side of its head. The figure wears layered, rustic clothing made of earth-toned patterned fabrics, a round stone pendant necklace, and holds a wooden, clawed walking staff with long, pointed fingernails. Behind the creature is a large, glowing purple crystal structure set against a dark background.

A portrayal of the Fugitive Doctor (Jo Martin). A Black woman with locs wears a dark purple jacket, a colorful pink and orange patterned vest, a matching high-collared shirt, tint-lens glasses, and a brown fedora with a patterned band. She adjusts her glasses with one hand while looking directly at the camera. In the background, against a dark purple cosmic void filled with circuit board patterns, floating planets, and circular Gallifreyan symbols, a glowing blue TARDIS police box flies through space.

A medium close-up shot of a humanoid droid named Professor Huyang. Made of off-white and grey metallic plating, the droid features glowing yellow circular eyes, a wide helmet-like head structure with a small visor lamp on top, and a elongated face panel. In the background, out-of-focus white architecture with arches and towers stands under a bright, overcast sky.

An animated illustration of the X-Men superhero Nightcrawler leaping through a star-filled outer space background. He has blue skin, glowing yellow eyes, dark hair, pointed elf-like ears, and a long blue tail. He is wearing his iconic red and black suit with white gloves and boots, dual-wielding rapiers in a dynamic combat stance.

An important reminder, one that I'm working on internalizing myself. Also, there are many people who are not primary English speakers and folks with brains that process words and information differently. Never hurts to give people some grace and kindness.

Oh Wow! I never thought about this before, but now I can't unsee it. Interesting perspective

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

That’s amazing!!! That is a lot of hard work, patience, and consistency. Congratulations!

One of my favorite Dolly Parton quotes, “Figure out who you are and do it on purpose!” I don’t have anything to add to the discourse other than I thought she came across as a kind, genuine and giving person, and that, sadly is a rarity these days. Thank you Dolly for helping us love and live 💔

That. Is. Terrifying! Would be funny though to see Vader march up all confident on a Hive Queen just to have her pull out two lightsabers.

Like many people, I debate regularly the value of being involved in social media. Connecting and learning from people like you are one of the positives of the medium.

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 20/08/2026

Beautifully done. I love the arachnophobia comparison. My husband used to give those seminars at businesses and corporations in the 80s, and he had the same philosophy about not wasting time on folks who are set in their opinion.

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

I envy your creativity! Looking forward to hearing how this goes 👍🏼👍🏼

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 18/08/2026

Division 12, mentioned in a couple of Strange New Worlds, would be interesting. A young Qowat Milat nun is the last of her order after their sanctuary was burned to the ground. She is on a singular mission: Bring justice to those who destroyed her sisters and their order.

I'm struggling with this myself. I can only imagine how many revisions you went through before this magic happened. I think you nailed it 🎉

“Kayshon, when he became a puppet.” (Lower Decks “Kayshon, His Eyes Opened” 2021)

A puppet version of Lt Kayshon on a sickbay biobed with a hand written note that says, in all caps, “I AM NOT A DOLL DO NOT PLAY WITH ME”

Aenar have been added to the Token Generator on @bcholmes.org ‘s STA character creator! Thanks BC! 🥳

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 09/08/2026

His reaction makes me so happy!

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 08/08/2026

That’s one of my favorite STA books! Thank you!

Oh. My. Goodness!!! He’s perfect!

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 04/08/2026

Fantastic! Get it! 🎉👏

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

Speaking from personal experience, that is one of the best feelings in the world. Congrats!! 🎉🥳

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 03/08/2026

I hear what you’re saying. IMHO there was room for improvement with the 1st season badges, so I don’t mind the attempt. I’m not blown away by the new one either. Maybe this is just a bad image. I’ll give them the benefit of the doubt. I liked the 32nd Century DISCO badge. I wish they used them.

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 02/08/2026

Congrats on your streak! I have such a love-hate relationship with that adorable little green tyrant.

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 01/08/2026

This is the correct answer

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

I hope they can do something to fix that. I'm sorry Freesia. That sucks 🫂

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 25/07/2026

I laughed so hard at that line!

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

Congratulations! Well deserved

Arwyn @arwynbabble.bsky.social · 24/07/2026

I love these not-so-oblique references. My mind buzzes with possibilities! Foremost in my mind is, which incarnation of the Doctor? Which one would pair best with her personality and character?
