Today we say goodbye to Loretta Swit, our one-and-only Major Margaret Houlihan. She took the character that started out as "Hot Lips" and turned her into Margaret, elevating her from a bawdy sex joke into a woman all her own: strong, capable, self-assured and self-reliant, a character whose whole identity no longer relied on a man or the men around her, those she had pursued romantically or otherwise. A woman dedicated to her work, to being an Army nurse, an Army major, and a woman who refused to let herself be outclassed or outnumbered by the men who surrounded her. In a sense, Margaret Houlihan was Katharine Hepburn in Army fatigues. Only one of four people to last from season 1 to season 11 - the others being Alan Alda, Jamie Farr, and William Christopher - Loretta Swit brought great depth to the role of Margaret Houlihan, not to mention passion and love, and for her work, she won two Emmy's for portraying Margaret (for the episodes "Are You Now, Margaret?" and "The Birthday Girls"). No doubt Margaret played a large role in the lives of many as the show aired, and no doubt she played a large role in countless others during reruns, and a large role in our own, here. To see the love an actor has for the role they play, the character they breathe life into, it will always leave an indelible impression, and there is again no doubt Loretta Swit left behind an incredible legacy during her 11-year tenure as Major Margaret Houlihan. To Loretta, to Margaret, we salute you, and we thank you, for everything. May you rest in peace.

the trees you grew up with have not forgotten you. their branches still whisper your name in the breeze and their roots remember the paths your feet once traced through their shade.

Let us all raise our wand for Michael Gambon (Albus Dumbledore) who brought light and happiness to so many, including the young actors he worked with and inspired. 🪄

Rest in peace, Headmaster.

Sooo I’ve been like. Obsessively watching the new Jumanji movie with Jack black and Dwayne Johnson.
watching Jack black play BETHANY is just another experience. I forget it’s a guy because he does it so fucking wonderfully. I can see Bethany in my head reacting and saying lines as Dr Shelly Oberon.
Yes, all four actors portray their “younger versions” so well, the little ticks and quirks they take on based on the kids, but Jack blacks acting is just *chef kiss* immaculate
#jumanji#kinda just a little rant as I got too stupid excited watching this movie#I was so worried about this movie coming out but I’m so happy with how it turned out

Hey so just a thought…
I haven’t seen anywhere else but I have a theory, Sebastian is somehow descended from Isadora. Like the last name wouldn’t be passed on, but if she had a kid and someone else raised it blah blah.
BUT this would also explain his thirst for magic knowledge- yeah his parents were professors but like he has a DARK pursuit. The obsession for it, like Isadora had.
I only heard that they might feature Sebastian as the villain for the second game but if there isn’t a redemption or some kind of “break the cycle” type thing I’ll probably cry

Hi,
It’s your friendly neighbor fanfic author here. In the light of this apparent new trend of people feeding unfinished fics to AI to get an “ending,” and some people even talking about “blanket permissions,” let me just say this:
I EXPLICITLY FORBID ANYONE TO FEED MY FICS TO AI. DUDE, THAT IS ABOUT THE LEAST RESPECTFUL THING YOU CAN DO. IF YOU DO IT, SHALL YOU BE EXCOMMUNICATED FROM YOUR FANDOM AND WALK ON LEGOS BAREFOOT TILL THE END OF DAYS.
That is my anti-permission.
Thank you for your attention.
