If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

A filmed production of What The Constitution Means To Me will be streaming on Amazon next week. The trailer doesn't do a great job of conveying what a phenomenal piece of theater this is - none of these clips get at how deeply personal Shreck's story is. (I swear it's not a 90-minute civics lecture.)

I honestly don't know how well it will hold up on a screen, but it is hilarious, important, and will probably make you cry.

Oh, that was a great play, I saw it at Berkeley Rep before it went to NY. So good.

Berkeley Rep is doing a radio play version of It Can't Happen Here, which I saw in December of 2016 (!). At the time it seemed a bit OTT, now not so much.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

Consuela, is that from the Sinclair Lewis novel?

Yes, it's an adaptation of the novel. Which I read for book club this last year, as well. Sigh.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

Yeah, I read that back in high school(not for class) when it wasn't quite so topical.

I just watched ep.1 of The Haunting of Bly Manor, and I am delighted. I'd love to binge watch it for the rest of the day/night, but Mr. Loomy, who gets creeped out by haunted house stories, said he enjoyed it but would prefer to watch it only during daylight hours.

(This is why we haven't seen The Haunting of Hill House run. We started ep.1, and Mr. Loomy said "I don't think I can deal with this right now, let's revisit it at some point", and that hasn't happened yet.)

Oh no! Does this mean you'll never be able to realize the dream of living in a haunted house?

He would rather we didn't, spoilsport.

I just hope he appreciates the sacrifices you make for his benefit. ;o)

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I'll just be over here in the corner bingeing "The Untamed." Pay me no mind.
