I’m not mad or anything, but I would have voted for Demi.

I never saw Center Stage, so I’m going to say Zoe Saldana’s Oscar is for the 2009 Star Trek.

One Oscars thought: I don’t think it’s been appreciated how buckwild Best Director is. Here are the last English-language movies from the nominees: Red Rocket, Vox Lux, Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny, The Sisters Brothers and N/A.

So I am fairly certain Yellowjackets is a follow-up to Orphan Black as shows that critics tired of after Season 1, but I will take as much of this as I can possibly get. (I’m actually only halfway through S3E2, but Callie just spiked Misty’s drink, and this is awesome.)

Nah, fuck that. Support the trans folks in your life and your community. Erasure is not an option.

@emilystjams.bsky.social Hey, my copy of Woodworking showed up today! Awesome! Although I still haven’t finished @sepinwall.bsky.social’s book yet. And I stopped 3/4 of the way through Long Island Compromise last year and haven’t gone back yet. (Don’t tell Taffy.)

From Peterr's great reflection on the entire ceremony of which Bishop Budde's plea was just one part: "They protected a poor, vulnerable refugee-to-be from a vengeful tyrant who feared for his own power." www.emptywheel.net/2025/01/22/h...

A commercial about all the stuff that will be on Peacock in February 2026 is not doing much to get me to subscribe now.

Some people would have you believe women’s football would be better off without Barbra Banda But they picked the wrong sport. The view inside the game is the reverse. Women’s football’s history of inclusion gives it a unique place in trans rights and gender debates www.nytimes.com/athletic/601...

I don't watch The Traitors, but I can recommend Emily Yoshida as a great podcaster, so if this aligns with your interests, you should definitely check it out. (HT: @spooloflies.bsky.social, @sophygurl.bsky.social)

Explain your user name: I used to use Boise State Fan as my username, but when I tried to register for an ESPN message board, it made me put a number at the end. My fantasy football team was the Boise Spuds, so I used spudsfan, and have kept it ever since. I do also like most potato products.

Listening to a year-old podcast on A League of Their Own where @emilystjams.bsky.social says “Tennis movies don’t work because there’s not a lot of great metaphors.” Correct at the time, but not so much now. 😄. (What if you made the whole movie out of the metaphor?)
