Okay, I am so upset that we don't have this in the States right now. I went to Peacock and there's nothing and I am having major FOMO.

Haven’t looked inside this since 1996/1997. Cracked it open and realized what a geek I’ve always been. I clipped #StarTrek episode descriptions from the TV Guide! Also, this explains my crush on Lt. Kyle.

And I think they paid attention to the survey results from a few months back. Obviously they didn’t develop Hercules and Pocahontas in that amount of time- they were ready to go- but it probably greatly helped them decide what to roll out next.

They dropped so much fun stuff in the livestream today- I'm looking forward to everything from the goose, skunk, and bee companions, to Sven coming in the deluxe bundle, and everything in between. I was really not excited about the horses until the live showed what they can do.

#DisneyDreamlightValley bringing both Pocahontas and Hercules to the game next year is exactly what this Millennial needed to hear today.

Somewhere, the library staff is like, "There's this Daryl on his Myrna Loy bullshit again."

Daryl @maconfleetwood.bsky.social · 1d

Anyway, this is your regular reminder that libraries rock, are absolutely essential, and you should use them often!

I’m chipping away at research for two projects- fiction and non-fiction- and my local library is continuing to put up with my dozens of requests for books and articles as I request books about boy bands and 1935 articles from the Hollywood Reporter.

still really proud of this piece - I wrote it before the theft software we've been falsely calling "A.I." became ubiquitous, but I think it still outlines all the ways these ghoulish processes are an affront to the dignity of the living and the dead.

Yes.

Anthony Oliveira wrote about this six years ago in a way that I really appreciated.

Reposting because I forgot to attach the link, this rad shop in Philly now carries my zines! You can buy my zines obviously, but there's a ton of other zines, t-shirts, stickers, buttons, etc. Incredibly cool place to visit.

Realizing that, as an adult, at least 20% of your day is spent figuring out what to eat, preparing it to eat, and actually eating.

Question about this- it seems like the Marvel line is leaning more into these rather than HasLabs. Do you know if there will ever be another Marvel HasLab?
