After editing a new episode of Bi-Mon Sci-Fi Con recently, I decided to unlock this episode where @abandonthought.bsky.social and I talked about CONTACT (1997) because I think it's a great proof of concept. It's nice to talk about good movies too!

It's Invisible Disabilities Week 🫶🏽
Not all disabilities are visible and that doesn't make them any less real.
Chronic pain, mental health conditions, neurological disorders, autoimmune diseases & more deserve awareness, respect, and understanding ✨

Lately horror movies have been not scaring me at all. Stuff I know would normally terrify me, I just feel... nothing.
I think it's related to a medication, and I do not like it one bit.

My beautiful baby girl had an ear infection recently and lost her hearing. She doesn't seem to mind, and she's been quick to pick up my use of hand signals in substitute for words.
I love my sweet girl.

Just removed "Hurricanes hockey fan" from my profile.
This is devastating me. I was looking forward to this season to provide an ounce of relief from the hell that is everyday right now. But I can't ignore this.

It's cool that guys making tens of millions are like, "yeah one benefit of signing here is I don't have to give a small amount of money to fund public schools and disability services," and we treat this as shrewd navigating rather than an abomination.

I just got a "Blue Alert" on my phone about a man wanted in GEORGIA (I'm in NC) for assault on a police officer.
This ridiculous use of the emergency alert system INFURIATES me.

World's cutest dog siblings:
Years ago, a friend of mine rescued two puppies wandering in rural NC. Her parents kept the boy puppy, Kai, and she adopted the girl, Kali, to a new coworker who needed just the right dog at just the right time.
Over the years the puppies have been able to get together now and then to play.

I had a weird dream that was like an amalgamated storyline of every horrorish show character combined. Dean and Sam were the main characters. And I got to see them interacting with like Buffy the Vampire Slayer. And I was there too. 😋
Dreaming is so much better than life these days.
