I find it somewhat ironic that I'm answering the media request in my Girl Guides uniform (since my teaching schedule demands I immediately go from university to Girl Guides today).

Does anyone know what the She-Ra Princesses of Power seasons are on Apple TV? On Netflix it has 5 seasons, in Apple TV it has 2 seasons (but looks like all the episodes), and Apple sells bundled of Seasons 1--3 (but you can't see what episodes are there). Any clue? #SPoP #AppleTV

OK I now have two tiny giant robot heads and one tiny giant robot torso. I literally lost one of the tiny stickers and had to use the X-acto to cut one out of the overspray on the sticker sheet. Hard to tell since the sticker is like 1mm long at its largest! #gundam #gunpla #gquuuuuux

I have done *something* wrong in ordering the folios for the first signature in my #bookbinding adventure. BUT – I'm pretty pleased with how each of the pages for my #DnD campaign notebook printed. (Also maybe I just drop the Roman numerals for the NPC pages... idk that they're needed!)
