I know I need to do a “Hi, I’m Jen” intro post (and a more thorough one with links to stuff is coming), but…
Hi! I’m Jen! I make TV, video games, TTRPGs and actual plays, Shakespearean nerdiness, and also work in disability spaces, which means my work overlaps in MANY spaces.

Hey guys, if you’re not too busy this weekend, maybe it might be a good time to go see a movie. Just a thought. I heard there is something good playing.

This amazing cover of Radiohead's "Creep" by college junior Erin Morton made the rounds earlier this year on TikTok, but I only saw it over the weekend. In case you haven't heard it yet, prepare to get goosebumps.

Because it is TRUE.

Many of the “great works” are just mythological/religious fanfic/slashfic.

They were good enough for Chaucer, who enthroned the fart joke in the canon of great literature forever.

Fart jokes get some kids reading, so give them fart jokes

You either die a hero or live long enough to become a villain or you started out as a villain or you stay a hero or you're just a person, neither hero nor villain and you die or you don't til later.

Agree 100%. He dances the same way, too—immense athleticism, but more specifically, from a dance perspective, his torso and shoulders remain nonchalantly stable (ballet training), no matter what chaos his feet get up to.

Ballet training changes posture/movement for life, and Holland started YOUNG.
