I don’t know if you have gotten to some of their queer episodes but they handle them with grace and nuance. We like to think progress in media is somewhat straight but there’s a lot of backsliding.
Matt Baume does great videos about queer TV representation. His golden girls episode is great
It was pretty good. Hearing Meryl sing terribly is interesting because she’s so good
Ding dong Dear Strong Bad,
How do you type with boxing gloves on?
That is true. Sex isn’t the main focus and there’s more slow building of sexual tensional and anticipation than actual sex. The world building and story is great with some great action chapters.
When Women Were Dragons a great standalone book reimaging the 1950 based on women spontaneously turning into dragons. It’s a concept book where a sociality issue is examined by fantasy tropes which are fun. Worth reading if you haven’t done a female perspective novel or concept novel in a while.
Fourth Wing and the rest of the Empyrean series. It’s technically Romantasy (romance/fantasy) and it’s super popular now. But it’s got good world building, dragons and sex in it. If you have never done a Romantasy it’s worth a read even if you don’t think you will like romance novels.
Babel it’s a fantasy historical account of oxford. It’s beautiful and wonderful. The author also has a series Poppy Wars which is good but it’s dark. But Babel is best.
I have gone in bursts devouring those books. There’s a little too much nerd boy fantasy insert in the first book. (The skinny loner who dressed bad has WAY too many beautiful women into him). But it’s pulp so it’s expected. Besides it gets so good.
Can’t say no to gritty magic crime noir.
All Vonnegut is worth reading
I loved Fritz Leiber Swords. If you like DnD it’s definitely what built lots of tropes from it. Also the episodic nature is a fun fast read
If you haven’t watched a baby or child eat you wouldn’t understand how dirty they can get their ears. My daughter is just starting to eat solids and always get food behind her ears. She gets it on her hands and then rubs her ears so it gets covered.
So yes we have to wash behind her ears
I don’t know how blue jays can dig a hole. But who knows
Really begs the question about who is using who. The beautiful cooperation of nature is so wonderful to behold.
I recently read an interesting book about humans who land an alien planet with sentient plants. It’s worth a read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semiosis_(novel)
I am guessing it’s a squirrel. Those bitches love acorns
I love puzzles and riddles in DnD. Especially easy ones that take forever.
As a straight man I am attracted to women. I have seen plenty AFAB enbys who are attractive. I have also seen plenty of AMAB trans women who are attractive. I have seen plenty of AFAB women who are attractive.
I once heard that sexual attraction is just a vibe and I really like that description. So if they hit my vibe I am in.
It’s a hugely impactful play and the Emcee shows huge changes in it. We had so many audible gasps at the end of the gorilla number
I’ll have to look it up. It was brilliant and want to watch it again and again
The lesbian episode is a classic. One of their bests.
I watched it for the first time a few years ago and felt like you. How is this so relevant and not dated?
