For As Much As I (and Seemingly Most People) Love Columbo, I Even More So Love Stumbling Upon The Exceedingly

thank you so much Sherman Potter for agreeing to be the diversity hire🙏🙏 it must have been so hard to be the only heterosexual in the cast

I think my favorite part about winter break is feeling the love I have for my family slowly turn into blood-boiling rage as I'm forced to spend more time with them.

Audrey Hepburn vs Eartha Kitt is an actual crime against humanity.

You bastard!

*goes back to weeping over the choices this round*

You're welcome!

All quarterfinals polls are now up:

Audrey Hepburn vs Eartha Kitt

Rita Moreno vs Marlene Dietrich

Hedy Lamarr vs Anna May Wong

Lauren Bacall vs Diahann Carroll

I am convinced that the universe, knowing that I only have two weeks left before I go back to college, has decided to make those last two weeks an absolute living hell.

Then again, I see really pretty nights like this and I feel a lot better.

Tornado Alley baby LETS GOO!!!!! 🌪

@archie-the-menace I would literally die to do that with you yes.

Doug Rattmann Appreciation Day 2025

A new year is upon us, which means another Doug Rattmann Appreciation Day!

Every February 19th, it's a day in which we Portal fans take time to appreciate Doug Rattmann. The man hiding in the walls during the first game, the only member of the Aperture Genetic Lifeform and Disk Operating System team who had some sense to think "maybe we shouldn't give the computer neurotoxin after we were mean to her", and the man who risked his life to set the events of Portal in motion, and helped ensure Chell survived the long sleep until Portal 2.

So on 2/19, celebrate Doug! Make fan art, write fics! Canon or au, it doesn't matter! Whatever you can think of to give Doug some much-needed love.

Be sure to tag your creations with #drad25 and #Doug Rattmann appreciation day!

And remember: In case of Rogue AI, dial ext. 219.

Man, I hope Taylor Mac doesn't turn out to be problematic or anything because I've watched Taylor Mac's 24-Decade History of Popular Music documentary on Max 5 times now and it is definitely one of my new favorite comfort shows.

Mac's performance, the accompanying musicians, and the costumes are all so amazing.

I'm forever going to think about the perfect casting in Stargirl and what a waste it was that the show was canceled and buried. Johnathan Cake as The Shade and he never made main cast or got that spinoff with Jade and Obsidian?! Criminal. Absolutely criminal.

And it's not like Gunn's in a rush to bring any of those characters to the big screen, let alone cast anyone who isn't an A-tier recognizable brand actor.

I'm telling you, every once and awhile my heart weeps.

I've got good news and I've got bad news:

The good news is that I'm no longer on my hands and knees crawling after Jeffrey Combs.

The bad news is that that particular obsession has been replaced with Tony Hale.

Thank You.

So for one of my college finals we get to do a creative project. One of the options is to write a screenplay for a scene that could fit into one of the shows we watched this semester (basically fanfiction in my opinion) and I'm choosing to do Dawson's Creek.

So I'm looking up technologies and stuff from the late 90's that teens would have adopted as the were introduced and that got me thinking about videogames which got me thinking about Half Life.

Looking it up, evidently Half Life was Valve's first game? How can they have been founded in 1996 and then 2 years later dropped one of the most influential video games of all time and then continue to put out mostly wonderful stuff until their seeming partial retirement?
