I've been reading it since Christmas, but I just finally finished King Sorrow. Been a long time since I read such a great, doorstop epic like this. Five stars!

I got to see Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom on the big screen today. It was the only Indy movie I had never seen theatrically. Perfect first theater visit for the year.

Having just read this recently, she makes a great point. Perfect for getting a jump start on your 2026 reading.

I have had Guillotine by @delilahsdawson.bsky.social on my TBR stack since it was released. I picked it up last week and devoured it over the weekend. A quick, bloody, and brutal read. It's cathartic for these times.

I want to like Robert Zemeckis' A Christmas Carol more. It's got an epic feel, great score, and a pretty good adaptation. And while the people aren't Polar Express-level creepy, they're still too uncanny valley to fully enjoy the movie.

Rankin/Bass’s Avengers assembled in theaters in 1979. This movie opens with Rudolph’s shine blipping out of existence, and what happens to Frosty and his whole family is even worse. Here’s an old podcast with @brandonmedley.bsky.social.

Amazing. Five stars. See it on the big screen if you can.

E.T. and Meet Me in St. Louis have two of the best depictions of Halloween in any movie that is not explicitly a Halloween movie.

I want a Superman Returns prequel with Sam Huntington's Jimmy Olsen investigating "that birthday clown massacre thing" Perry mentions.

@thechrishaley.bsky.social and @denobel.bsky.social, the idea of y'all recording a Superman commentary got me so excited. Been catching up on the podcast the last two weeks and loving it. Hoping it doesn't completely end with summer.

I don't know if I'll ever recapture the comics joy of reading Superman comics during the triangle numbering days.

When you're waiting to board a plane, do you ever look around and think, "these are the people who'd be on the island with me if we have a 'LOST' experience?" Try to figure out the dozen or so of you who'd be the main cast, who'd be the redshirts, & who'd be the tailies that show up later? Just me?

Heading to Virginia Seminary this week for my January intensive. Got to the airport in Valdosta well before daylight only for the flight to be delayed several hours due to ice in Atlanta. So, I came to the 10 AM service at Christ Church.

While we’re banning books… Finland is teaching children in school how to recognize fake news and propaganda as part of critical thinking and civic responsibility. Some of this will seem very familiar. Be. Like. Finland.

First book of 2025 finished! This one had been on my TBR list for a while now. Solid crime fiction with a supernatural horror element lurking over the whole thing. I've encountered Gabino Iglesias on social media, but this was my first time reading one of his books. I will be reading more.

Paperback copy of "The Devil Takes You Home" by Gabino Iglesias.

I read 76 books in 2024 (seminary really inflates that total and I didn't even log all of those). Of the new releases, I think these five are my favorites. I know Wild Robot Protects was a 2023 release, but I didn't get to it until 2024.

My favorite books of 2924:
The Wild Robot Protects by Peter Brown; Cuckoo by Gretchen Felker-Martin; Jesus and the Powers by N.T. Wright and Michael Bird; Dayspring by Anthony Oliveira; and The Art of Being a Creature by Ragan Sutterfield.

He sits in my lap every night but usually he faces the TV. Tonight, he turned himself around so he could watch me.

Binge watching Joe Pera Talks With You because I never watched beyond season one, and I just heard it's leaving HBO Max on January 11. I hate this whole removing things for tax write-offs.

Reminder that if you don't get Syfy channel, there is a Twilight Zone channel on Pluto TV where you can still have a New Year's marathon.

This week has finally given me time to watch season two of Star Trek: Prodigy. I had watched the premiere when it dropped but then life got very busy and complicated for me. But I watched all 20 episodes over the past three days. This series just keeps getting better.

Last year, I donated a massive box of RPG books to a local prison. One of my best friends from high school is a prison librarian & he says RPGs are extremely sought after but very rarely donated, so if you have any unused RPG manuals you don't need consider donating them.

rip to our most x-files president

INTERVIEWER: One of the promises you made in 1976 was that if you were elected, you would look into the reports from Roswell and see if there had been any coverups.
Did you look into that?

CARTER: Well, in a way. I became more aware of what our intelligence services were doing. There was only one instance that I'll talk about now. We had a plane go down in the Central African Republic—a twinengine plane, small plane. And we couldn't find it. And so we oriented satellites that were going around the earth every ninety minutes to fly over that spot where we thought it might be and take photographs. We couldn't find it. So the director of the CIA came and told me that he had contacted a woman in California that claimed to have supernatural capabilities. And she went in a trance, and she wrote down latitudes and longitudes, and we sent our satellite over that latitude and longitude, and there was the plane.

Was not expecting the Doctor Who Christmas special to be the first piece of mass media I've seen that explicitly says "we cannot memory hole how horrible 2020 was, you gotta process that shit"
