RIP Shelley Duvall, Faerie Tale Theatre Queen
This obituary may be late to the party, but I’d be remiss if I didn’t pay my respects to the late Shelley Duvall, who left us on July 11, 2024. The news of her passing both shocked and saddened me, as did a good many others who were fans of her film roles and of Faerie Tale Theatre. As someone who’s spent little over two years reviewing and ranking Faerie Tale Theatre episodes, I can attest to…

#OTD in 1896 – The City and Suburban Ground, now known as Croke Park, hosts a football match for the first time. The teams are a combination of Irish and Scots women versus England. The combined team beats England 3–2.
One of the very first blows for women’s sport in Ireland was struck in 1896, when international women’s football came to the City and Suburban Grounds at Jones’s Road, Dublin: Croke Park occupies the site these days.
The main impetus for the game came from Britain. Women’s football was particularly strong in Scotland and in some of the bastions of England’s industrial revolution. Among the great…

Systems, trailers, & expectations around D20's Burrow's End
The release of Dimension 20’s 20th season trailer for Burrow’s End caused a bit of a stir on TTRPG Twitter, and I just want to unpack it a little bit. The main tension lies within Dimension 20’s choice to continue to put out shows that use D&D 5e as its system (though often with homebrewing and hacks).
The trailer’s tone is less comedic than most seasons, starting with a solemn voiceover by GM…

Hail Dora!
In honor of International Women’s Day, I thought I might point out a powerful symphony written by the Croatian composer, Dora Pejačević (1885-1923). The Symphony in F-sharp minor for large orchestra, Op. 41 (1916 – 1917, rev. 1920; dedicated to her mother baroness Lilla Vay de Vaya), is a sweeping composition and the culmination of her orchestral writing. Pejačević has a substantial body of work,…

Da 'Toon Cup Runneth Over Again!
I just checked my ‘toon stash this morning and yep, it’s overflowing again! And I only choose the ones I think are the best of the best, probably one out of every 4-5 that I see! I was planning a bit of a rant for this afternoon, but I figured maybe you’d rather chuckle than growl, so I’ll save the rant for tomorrow! Meanwhile, enjoy da ‘toons!

SNEAK PEEK REVIEW: The Slowest Burn by Sarah Chamberlain
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
First things first, I’m not actually sure that I’d consider this to be a slow burn, let alone the slowest burn. It’s not even the slowest burn I’ve read this week, lol. So the title set me up for some expectations that simply were not met, however, I still had a great time reading this debut. There are so many strong elements – I loved the journey from instant enemies to friends to…
