Sadly the tops on those spice shakers do eventually wear out. Only took about 40 years of use.

Darby O'Gill and the Little People is mostly a silly movie with young Sean Connery and leprechauns. And then the banshee shows up.

The banshee from Darby O'Gill and the Little People. It's a green-glowing, ghostly human figure in a tattered hooded cloak

My first memory of being in a movie theater is of having to leave ET because 4 year old me was terrified

Some real Mysterious Stranger vibes here

The Mysterious Stranger from The Adventures of Mark Twain. A Claymation figure in red armor. He has no head and is holding a white mask on a stick where his face should be.

I'll occasionally tell my kid "I'm going to watch an episode of (show I think he might like), you can join me if you want." Sometimes he gets into it, more often he politely watches and then wants to go back to playing a video game. It is what it is.

The main thing I took away from this arc is that Morgan Edge is just the worst.

The WorldCon Masquerade was indeed well worth attending. All the costumes were fantastic but my favorite, because I have a deep and abiding love for the Harper Hall trilogy, was Menolly singing her Fire Lizard Song.

Warbreaker is absolutely my go to 'first Cosmere' recommendation. Fun, fast paced, and great viewpoint characters.

Belghast was one of the best people I've ever known. He formed communities by being warm, open, accepting, and supportive. Knowing that I'll never discuss games, books, and stuff with him again is devastating.

Jerry Pournelle always referred to him as the Egregious Frum, and I think that is a fantastic appellation that deserves more widespread use

For some reason it's Yogi Bear. Despite there being plenty of other Hanna-Barbera characters I've watched much, much more of.

Ultima 2 had a cloth map as well. The first game had 4 maps but they were on cardstock. But yeah, in my mind 'cloth map' is synonymous with Ultima

I'm always happy when a writer remembers that Sandman is, in fact, an Avenger. Also any time anybody remembers the Outlaws.

Did you thank your 💗DM💗 today? They're out here making beautiful worlds for the rest of us to play in, and then they TRAP us there and try and KILL our CHARACTERS as fast as possible 🙃 Just me?

A graphic with an illustration of a spooky looking gandalf with a badge for magic con in his hand. The accompanying text says: 1970's The Dungeon Master. More deathtraps than you've had hot dinners. 2d6 goblins on call. No 10ft pole? That's a you problem. Killed your favourite character and he'll do it again.

It’s profoundly ignorant to suggest that the Pope should be fighting crime on behalf of the Catholic Church. Anyone who was remotely familiar with Roman Catholicism would know that that’s what Daredevil is for
