  1. I am not going to be around for a bit. We are on the last days with my grandmother. She is home with us, but she has stopped eating solid food, is having a hard time swallowing, and breathing heavy. Could be tomorrow, could be next week. She is 94 (almost 95!), so this has been a long time coming. It’s still hard. Especially on my Aunts and Mom. They asked if I was okay, only to say I am about to mimic Roman Roy’s “I am fine, I pre-grieved” to “massive breakdown” to a tee. That said, I am not peacing out completely. I check the reports daily, and my Inbox and Telegram are open. I DO want to finish/post the 1993 before the end of the year. And that will be a welcomed distraction. So look for that by year’s end. ❤️
  2. The overarching issues that we — as a board, as a culture, as an existential crisis — have fractioned our society further back into tribalism. Or “Teams”. Everything is my team is right, your team is wrong, when the truth is very, very much living in between. Until we recognize that, we’re just going to go round and round going no where. And this discussion is going to be exhausting.
  3. And before books it was plays being all the rage. I think it’s less reading (also find it insulting that comics is “less reading”) and more what’s popular at the time.
  4. Same, girl. I hate Bob so much for denying this girl a full press tour. She is just everything. So good at hype. So good at spin.
  5. The other problem is that you can’t read the website anymore without being logged in. There are no more visible comments. So, even though I don’t use the website anymore, I still have the app on my phone so that if someone sends me something I can access it. Well, as someone who always thought, Tony Stark was a giant asshole, and the villain of the story, I still Elon and Tony would be besties.
  6. Pedro is an excellent choice, since his big thing seems to be “playing a character protecting a child.” And therefore, we must be getting Franklin and Val. 🥺
  7. @Porthos y’all missed the best one: https://twitter.com/taylorswiftday_/status/1723720887558353095?s=46
  8. Because I got conned into being Admin, and now I am stuck in Hotel California. Which normally is fine, and fun. But this is the first weekend in six years I have genuinely felt unwelcomed. We should also comment that for some fans the press tour IS the event. It’s just fodder for more celebrity gossip. They don’t really care about content, but they want to see their favorite actors being cute. So a HUGE part of fandom engagement never happened. No Iman, Brie, and Tenayoh doing puppy (or kitten) videos. No Hot Wings. No Lie Detector Test. No TikTok Challenge. No Instagram Cosplay Contests. That stuff might sound stupid here, but it plays big in girl fandom spaces. I will never understand why they didn’t push this to May 4, 2024.
  9. It’s almost like your missing the subtext of what he’s really saying.
  10. I got a dog now, and my grandmother is sick. Days of weekly trips to the movies are over for the time being. We’ll probably do the Waitress proshot and the Color Purple for the rest of the year. Looking at 2024 only Furiosa and Lady Gaga Harley seem like Appointment Viewing.
  11. Normal weekend threads don’t make me want to quit. Lol.
  12. The way I see it is: this is an excellent exercise in everyone showing their true colors.
  13. It’s only 1PM EST and y’all want to fire Feige? Okay. So it’s gonna be THAT kind of weekend.
  14. They are basically the same as before with some clarifications. I wrote all of them up last night, but the post didn’t save. I lost an hour of work. so I went to bed sad. I haven’t had time to rewrite them yet due to my work. So just assume the old rules apply
  15. It's almost like they were casting folks who could play the characters for a decade, and preparing longterm for Phase 5 and 6!!! Also the team is literally called The Young Avengers.
  16. Girl, I'm so deep in my Avengers Gilded Age AU that nothing can bother me. Why do I care about what boys think, when I'm dealing with the absolute scandal of Mrs. Howard Stark trying to introduce the young Mr. Rogers into Polite Society.
  17. MODERATION: See this right here. This is what we are not doing this weekend. If you post something like this ONCE, you will receive 2 warning points. If you post something like this TWICE, you will be thread banned for the ENTIRE weekend.
  18. Anyway, looks like you got two hours for the mice to play, since @XXR's Eras Tour, I am also about to go into the flick.
