A while back, I made a video essay about how The Last Jedi subverts media expectations around male action heroes. Star Wars fanboys have downvoted it to hell but I stand by everything I said. www.youtube.com/watch?v=mWqV...

New Board Games – 2025!

Critter Kitchen - I played this at my regular Ladies+ Table Meet-Up (thoughts here) and I think we played it at least 3 times this year. Each time, all at different player counts, and each time it was a blast!

Actually our DVDs are hella touched at my library.
There are moratoriums on certain titles, (especially older ones!). They often don't get a re-release, so we keep them forever. Please let us know if they skip. We don't polish them anymore, but we will take them out of circulation if you tell us.

Finished ‘Alien: Earth’ - I think I liked it but not sure what a season 2 might look like…part of me wants that to be the finale. So many of the best horror stories leave you imagining far worse ends than any one writer could create.

I had thought my reading was low this year, but I read a lot more than I realized! I did find graphic novels to be the best way to escape reality so I had a lot of those on my list this year. If I wait for Storygraph/GoodReads to drop my year in review, I will have…

After feeling like 'Loot' and 'Nobody Wants This' fumbled most of their new seasons, 'Man on the Inside' has been SOLID so far. Characters have continued to grow from where s1 stopped, it's still funny but still full of heart. Thanksgiving Break episode was so smart and sweet.
