Right. Piano. Because that's what we used to kill that big demon that one time. No, wait. That was a rocket launcher.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

-t, welcome to the genius of cross-pollination. *grin*

I was thinking about downloading the pilot ep of shear genius. Ya'll have almost convinced me.

Is anyone watching Work Out? It looked to be a very crazy season.

SA, I started watching "Work Out", but I bailed. Jackie's behavior really turned me off. I don't think I'm going to watch the show again.

I saw the first season and pretty much enjoyed it, but I can't take her power play ways.

Thrive to spite them

Any one watching Survivor right now?

Because books.

I am. Sort of.

It looks like it could be interesting.

Thrive to spite them

That was really good strategy. Well played.

Because books.

I missed some of it due to noisy children and the phone ringing, but yeah.

I love watching the challenges, though, and the endurance ones are so boring. All you get to do it guess who's going to drop next based on how much they're sweating.

I watch "Work Out" when I catch it. I couldn't believe Jackie was still with her girlfriend when the season started.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

EXCELLENT Survivor strategizing and pulling it off. Alex & Co. are dumb. Why did they assume they had Stacy's vote? Earl & Co. are SMRT. I wouldn't trust Dreamz not just keep babbling to each other till they sat down at tribal council. So, way to go. I love Yau Man and Earl. And if the preview is right (do I spoiler font previews?) I will CUT THEM if they steal Yau Man's immunity idol. Also, heh, to Dreamz STILL trying to play both sides! Dude, you are done. Just own it.

That was fun. I always love the "painful question" and "knock out your enemies" challenge.

Art Crawl!!!

Hey, I just watched Planet Earth: Shallow Seas, Planet Earth: Great Plains and most of Planet Earth: Jungle "On Demand". There are two more episodes On Demand -- how many have run so far?

I loved the Tibetan Fox, the Pygmy Hogs, the wild asses, the crazy displays of the birds in the jungle and all the fig tree fans.
