Watching Season 5 of #StrangerThings with my family during Thanksgiving.
Halfway through episode 2, during a silent scene, my mother-in-law abruptly muses “They really made Will look gay this season.”

It is always so jarring to watch popular media depict a hobby for the benefit of general audiences, rather the hobby’s fans.

Can you imagine the horror show if MySpace was still the main social media space today?
Seriously, imagine the 2025 internet toxicity overlapping with the Top 8 social system. It would be a bloodbath.

Originally, #StrangerThings had cute passing references to D&D to establish the kids were geeks.
Then Hasbro and Netflix officially collaborated.
Now, episodes are based around how cool D&D is and the many benefits of enjoying this easy to learn game. It’s so wild. 🤣

Trump actively enjoying his relationship with Mamdani is deeply surprising, especially given how allegedly-fellow Democrats don’t support him.
Huh.
… okay. I’ll take it. 🤷♂️ I feel like there’s something here to learn about. I’m guessing Mamdani studied hard how to engage with Trump’s mindset.

The bill that releases the Epstein Files has two separate caveats that allows the White House to redact information without justifying it to the public.
I don’t think this will result in a win.

I genuinely resented voting Yes on the gerrymandering in California, but understood its necessity in fighting Texas.
If Texas is blocked and the GOP just… loses the House because of this? That would be the funniest and most narratively delicious outcome. 🤣

The only thing we know about GA is that it got delayed twice, and once was for firing their most experienced artists without a replacement plan.
