Just a friendly reminder as we go into the holidays:

Folks don't have to explain to you why they don't drink.

If you offer them a drink and they decline, don't ask them why. It's not your business.

Just offer them something without alcohol to drink instead. And move on.

Uh so yeah, this happened with very little fanfare and smack in the middle of all the black Friday sales! 😂 This is -not- on sale because it's a new release; I bought it immediately anyways. A right proper faithful remaster of Outlaws was NOT on my bingo card and I couldn't be happier about it!
Outlaws + Handful of Missions: Remaster is available NOW on all platforms! 🤠

I saw the most delightful forgotten Christmas movie last night: NOËLLE (2019) starring Anna Kendrick, Bill Hader, Kingsley Ben-Adir, and Shirley MacLaine.

Imagine if BARBIE (2023) were a Christmas movie about someone from the North Pole instead of Barbieland. 11/10, add this to your Christmas list.

This is one of my favorite sets in my collection. Somewhere out there in the 1960s, a kitten and bird were pals. 💕

The actual secret to why I know stuff is that I ask a question any time I don’t understand literally anything. I don’t care how simple it is. Anybody who makes fun of you for asking a simple question likely doesn’t know the answer either

Is there anyone good with tree parasites here? This American Sycamore on Ohio State’s Columbus campus appears to a have one growing from the trunk. I’m used to mistletoes growing in branches more than on the main trunk, and we’re northwest of the mistletoe core range by quite a bit.

PSA dudes: if you genuinely want women to believe you when you claim to be “one of the good ones” you should probably be backing up your female colleagues when they ask a genuinely important question and get back “quiet piggy” in response

I visited the Met for the first time last year.

The staff, from the interpreters to security guards and other people who keep things comfortable for guests to the café workers, left a huge positive impression this international visitor will never forget. They are treasures as much as the art is.
Workers at The Met are trying to unionize, citing “long-term pay inequities, lack of job protection, and ever-increasing workloads.” If they succeed, their union would be one of the largest museum unions in the US.

Staffers at the New York City institution have filed a petition for a union vote with the National Labor Relations Board.
