Met my first online friends on a forum about Narnia while I literally counted down the days until the release of Prince Caspian. The Meryl Streep as Aslan news didn’t affect me because I genuinely forgot that movie was happening. 🫠

Both Dolly Parton and Tim Curry had such a genuine enthusiasm for performing that it was impossible not to love them for it, there were things more highly and lowly regarded in their bodies of work but both of them threw themselves into everything because it was pure joy for them and that rules

We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.

It's Textile Tuesday, and you know what that means: a piece by artist Faig Ahmed called "The Dragons of Karabakh" that's woven to look like an antique Central Asian carpet is melting off the wall into a puddle. More about the artist here: faigahmed.com

The Belgian waffle was introduced in 1962 by a vendor at the Seattle World's Fair. In 2026, when the Belgians came to Seattle, they made the U.S. toast.
