I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

What is the difference between a cape and a cloak, anyway? I know I could look it up but I feel certain I have looked it up before and have a vague sense that the results were unsatisfactory in some way.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Maybe a cloak has a neck?

I looked it up again. Cloaks are longer, below the knee; capes are shorter, just to waist or mid thigh. I will not retain this knowledge.

I thought it had something to do with the hood or neck or something.

Upon reflection, I think the difference *should* be that capes are for making you look good and cloaks are for keeping you warm and/or hidden.

It's weird - with the beard, he's 100% Dr Strange to me, but clean-shaven I just see Cumberbatch doing an American accent.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

That looks quite entertaining!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Someone else in the theater after said, "It's giving Everything Everywhere All At Once" and that movie may have spoiled me for multiverses, tbh.

The She-Hulk CGI looks a little iffy but I'm hoping that's just the trailer because I am so excited for Tatiana Maslany to be back on my tv!

I respect TH out of Tatiana but I'm dubious about the tone of this thing...
