See? I gave everybody here an opportunity to tell me what a bad person I am and nobody did, because I fuckin' rule.

I've started watching Gravity Falls with ltc. She loved the grappling hook bit a lot.

When Matilda first saw it, she asked earnestly if grappling hooks were real things or just cartoon, and, when assured that they are real, said, "Then I want a grappling hook for my birthday."

Well, the final season of She-Ra was really pretty epic, and it leaned way in on the ships. That was lovely, although I think they could have spent more time on Catra's heel-turn on the space ship. That needed more development.

Good job, show!

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

I'm very keen to catch up now that the series is completed! Strange binge through.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

ltc and I finished watching Gravity Falls together (rewatch in my case), and ltc has never really watched a show that had a series finale before. So, she cried and cried and cried about everyone going their separate ways in the finale. I felt so bad.

We're going to start Kim Possible next.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Awwww, poor ltc! I know that feeling. I know Kristen Schaal was pretty sad about not doing Mabel anymore.

I thought Mabel would be her favorite character, but it's actually Grunkle Stan. Although, she has been asking for a grappling hook a lot.

Now tagless for your comfort.

Liv and I are doing an Avatar the Last Airbender rewatch. Ooof.

So good! Matilda plowed through it in a week.

Of course, she'd seen it before and we had the DVD sets, but it'd been a few years and she's now more the age of the protagonists.

What would you say was a good age for Airbender?

It goes sort of dark later on and can be complex. But I'd say 6 or 7.
