The best part about modern TV watching is when you start a new season and watch the recap bit and get to go “well I don’t remember *any* of that.” (This is a House of the Dragon post.)
I’ve way more Tshirts than is really needed (over 50!) but couldn’t resist this from @flanaganswakepod.bsky.social. Such a fun dark shirt from poking fun at @mikeflanaganfilm.com best show Midnight Mass. Good news is money is going to charity but still might not wear it to work at the Vet Clinic!
RIP Perry Usher. You were… kind of a lot, honestly. youtu.be/3WK8GLZaVUA?...
