I got to see @heathersmusicalny.bsky.social one more time on Monday (and Dawn dressed up so my Heather Chandler wouldn't be minionless!). The show is just so ridiculously good, the cast is so talented... What is there left to say, except that this production of #Heathers is So Very!

After enduring Mariah Carey night on #DWTS, it turns out I only know one of her songs! "Hero" was the only one I recognized. All her music has blissfully passed me by. (They didn't play "All I Want for Xmas," I guess that makes two songs.)

Like with any respectable Back to Hogwarts celebration, I'm getting home at 2am! It was such a fun day out, and kind of a good switch from summer vacation into a fall-and-fandom season.

Joe Russo says Marvel fans need to see ‘Endgame’ rerelease before ‘Doomsday’: ‘It’s required viewing’
Joe Russo says Marvel fans need to the ‘Avengers: Endgame’ rerelease in theaters before they go see ‘Doomsday,’ calling it ‘required viewing’ that is ‘going to connect the story of the two movies.’

Dolly Parton did all the good she could, for all the people she could, for as long as ever she could. From her legendary songwriting to the Imagination Library—which sent 1 million books a month to children across the country—she was the best of America. Dolly, we'll miss your great heart.

For the record, I'm 💯 on the side of "get on the flights." No need for more people to lose out on thousands of $$$ and days of logistic hassle. Esp if you're in your local airport and not far far away. I've been on the "left behind" side of things and never took it personally

Poll for you all! My friend had the following situation come up. Three people embarking on vacation together. When getting on the first flight (layovers involved), one of them has airport issues and looks like he'll miss the flight. Is the right thing to do to stay with him, or board the flights?

I really have to commend Al Gore for his restraint because if I was in his shoes I would be well into the fifth year of my worldwide “I Fucking Told You So” lecture tour

The area of the Poconos I'm in is actually quite beautiful, and on rare occasions (a friend with a car) I get to explore it! Went to Shohola Falls with friends yesterday and it was beautiful.

It was such a glorious day out, and we had so much fun discoing through the parade and hanging out on Coney Island beach! As always, one of my favorite events of the year.

Just realized in the excitement of revisiting #Titanique that I didn't post pics of my Celine Dion's first voyage at the St James! It's an excellent venue for vamping.

I decided to cosplay Jack Dawson, specifically when he's drowning (spoilers!) during The Prayer. One of my favorite moments of the whole show - they turned the saddest part of the film into the biggest laugh of the show, with a GENIUS song choice and Constantine Rousouli hamming it up

Irvin K @darklordofdance.bsky.social · 01/07/2026
I asked my friends, "Shall we go for it?" And they said yes, so we returned to #Titanique yesterday. My fifth time, and I'm amazed it just gets better and better with each time.

Going through some recent pictures, and this was from a Y2K themed dance party in March! Britney has become such a staple of my cosplay closet, it's always fun to trot her out! And if you're confused as to who it is... youtube.com/shorts/N8_Y5...

The guy at my favorite fabric store recognizes me now, he was all like "Haven't seen you in a while!" I don't know why, but this feels like such a flex to me!

Two sides of my family (and my rship to each) in a quick vignette. My dad's side (aunt, cousin, etc) organized a lovely Father's Day dinner for us to get together and toast the dads. On my way home, I call grandma (mom's side), tell her I was at my cousin's place. What followed:

You know how when you leave a job, all the coworkers promise you'll hang out and do lunch? We did! My crew of ride-or-die work friends from KVB reconvened for an outing now that almost all of us moved on to bigger and better things. It was just so nice being together again!

This was an incredible moment from an event I did this May: this girl came and told me she's actually one of the authors I cited in the #MalfoyBook bibliography - Nadia M. with her 2008 essay "Malfoy's Misgivings." 18 years later, here we are - it was, forgive the pun, magical!

Help! I've been emotionally victimized by a YA novel! @lancerubinparty.bsky.social's "16 FOREVER" had me bawling my eyes out this afternoon. What an emotional wallop - it's been years since a book hit me in the feelings like that.

Highlight of #BookCon - getting to meet @megcabot.bsky.social at last! I've met most of my favorite authors, but I've been such a huge fan of Meg for 20+ years, so this was a big deal for me! Got to tell her how much I love her books and get the first three #PrincessDiaries signed!

Oh you’re Catholic and you disagree with the Pope? Maybe you should make a list of all the things you disagree with. Really dig deep, make it a nice long list. 95 seems like a good number. And then post that list somewhere he can see it, like maybe nailed to a church door.
