@overlysarcastic.bsky.social so Red mentioned on an OSP podcast that Code Red Mountain Dew taste like a Shirley Temple, i had to track one down and see for myself. I don’t know wether to thank Red or curse her for my new favorite soda.

The more I think about it the more I hope Ozzie and Bee have a hard time coming back from this. Not just Fizz being upset with Oz, but I can even see Tex being upset at Bee knowing Loona was also on the chopping block when all they did was vote for an extended trial 💀💀💀

Well, now I'm distracted brainstorming the heck out of a possible Fizzarozzie argument post-Mastermind when Fizz can't ignore Oz's carelessness anymore.

I got to read an ARC copy this book is a great way to get young readers into Norse mythology, it makes mythology fun for them and makes it relative to something they are interested in the MCU. Making learning fun is one of the best ways to get people into a topic.

September 13, the Ides of September, was also the Feast of Jupiter Optimus Maximus, when Roman officials had a ceremonial meal with statues of Jupiter, Minerva and Juno dressed in fancy robes and seated on couches. So take your favorite statue out to lunch today!

I know sometimes I shouldn’t, But It’s hard not to bite back about shit when I’m a creator of queer stories in a time where queerness is under attack. I’m the daughter of an immigrant when people are being stolen away. I’m a woman seeing my rights are a constant debate. Maybe I’m just PISSED off.

Love this crew! From yesterday, a tiny, spoiler-free behind-the-scenes moment of Walker and me checking out the season 3 replays on the monitor. Is that... a monster? Why, yes, I believe it is. #percyjackson Season two drops on Disney+ December 10, and you will LOVE it.

Ah fun, more vague ToS wording that puts 80% of art at risk.

They’re gutting the Smithsonian and muzzling jobs data. Not to fix anything, just to blind us.

Rewrite the past, stall the present, and sell the lie unopposed. This is how authoritarian rot takes hold.

Are you paying attention?

Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you:

Our funding depends on usage.

So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

@newestolympian.bsky.social took me two months from start to finish but I have finally caught up and listened to all the episode. Love the podcast it allows me to read this series with fresh eyes. I have been getting much amusement out of some of your theories.

I imagine it will be worth even more once the Spindleroo Pilot comes out. People will get nostalgic and new fans will come in who want to start collecting.
