I have a bunch of new followers and moots. I’m gonna warn y’all now:

- I’m a nerd and not the cool kind.
- I’m currently hyper fixating on The Acolyte, Arcane, and Kendrick’s new album.
- I’ve been super sad since the election and that’s been leaking into everything I post.

You’ve been warned 💖

Syd confirmed The Internet has been working on a new album. The Hiatus is over. 🥹

I used to pray for times like this.

Yesterday I made “ranch” out of Greek yogurt, dill, and a pinch of garlic salt.

My kiddo loved it and ate ALL of his broccoli and ranch. I still can’t believe it worked. 😩

Michael Eisner, who served as CEO of Disney for 21 years and acquired ABC while he was in charge, slams his successor Bob Iger for bending the knee.

Where has all the leadership gone? If not for university presidents, law firm managing partners, and corporate chief executives standing up against bullies, who then will step up for the first amendment? The
"suspending indefinitely" of Jimmy Kimmel immediately after the Chairman of the FCC's aggressive yet hollow threatening of the Disney Company is yet another example of out-of-control intimidation. Maybe the Constitution should have said, "Congress shall make no law abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press, except in one's political or financial self-interest." By-the-way, for the record, this ex-CEO finds Jimmy Kimmel very talented and funny.

Crystal Crown was freaking amazing!!! And the acknowledgements made me tear up. I loved this book (and characters) so much

A novel from Star Wars, the acolyte, titled The Crystal crown by Tessa gratton. The cover features white and orange skinned Jackie lawn, a Jedi Padawan with a beautiful green lightsaber and brown skin yord with a beautiful yellow lightsaber

From what I can see white supremacists are terrorizing this country with fire arm violence but batshit insane cultists want to pretend that hard working marginalized folks & immigrants are dangerous.

Each school shooting breaks my heart & weighs heavy on my mind every day. We are morally empty.

Thank the Goddess. I swear Apple TV+ is the only streaming service that doesn’t piss me off by constantly canceling the best shows.

The Acolyte was better than the majority of Star Wars stuff from this century, by the way.

The lack of education in this country is going to kill us all. It’s very telling that so many people think affirmative action, DEI policies, affordable healthcare and even government assistance ONLY benefited Black people.

The realization is hitting y’all hard and fast and I love that for you.

I am very stubborn, very petty, and not at all reasonable about this.

Still very salty. I’ve never been soured on something I used to love the way that I’ve been soured on Star Wars in general after the way Disney treated The Acolyte and the fans the liked it.

I would’ve watched Skeleton Crew if Disney hadn’t gone out of their way to cancel The Acolyte while those of us who were big fans were clearly having so much fun with it.

I still feel like Disney signaled to me that I’m not valued the same as other Star Wars fans & I got the message loud & clear.

Jordan Maison @jordanmaison.com · Aug 21

Interesting Nielsen TV data for Disney+ shows. Skeleton Crew absolutely deserved better, but Wild to see how Acolyte topped a few Marvel shows (including Daredevil didn’t garner enough views to even MAKE this graph) and yet….

You can blame the “streaming bubble” as the reason the acolyte was canceled but choosing that show out of all the others to explicitly cancel still points to racism. They do not see shows with poc as valuable.
