Hi, BlueSky folks: I'm a Missouri-based journalist who loves the following: - dogs - all animals, really, especially doofy ones - food - baseball - soccer - movies - Tom Clancy novels - Star Wars - Tolkien - Star Trek - Marvel - traveling - movie soundtracks - kindness and respect for other people

Journalist in mid-MO; Latter-day Saint; doggo dad; honorary Russian; dessert expert. Nuts about STL Cardinals, STL City SC, Celtic FC, Arsenal, Mizzou, and against many others. Will talk Tolkien, Star Wars, just about all of it.
I have been SO negligent on Bluesky. I suck and will try to be better.
Crew, I try not to do this a lot - I have a sister in the hospital dealing with a gnarly foot infection/abcess. She'll be there another almost-week, and will then have to be off her feet for several more, and her job requires her to be on her feet. So prayers/good vibes for her?
I am so invested in Freddy the footy superfan and his American adventures that if it turns out to be fake or a setup (which is a non-zero possibility in the stupid realm of social media), my faith in humanity will be irreparably broken.
With all the talk about Arsenal winning the Premier League this year, let's not forget the losers. I, for one, hope Erling Haaland remembers to stay humble. #COYG #Arsenal @arsenalfc.bsky.social

Goodness, wisdom, and honesty are the three qualities of statesmanship, qualities this country needs more than ever before. May we be wise...in the electing of those who would lead us. May we select only those who understand and will adhere to Constitutional principles. - Ezra Taft Benson
"Let the people of the whole Union, like the inflexible Romans, whenever they find a promise made by a candidate that is not practiced as an officer, hurl the miserable sycophant from his exaltation." - Joseph Smith
When I heard the news that Ted Turner passed away, my mind immediately went to Turner's greatest lasting legacy: Stopping by Conan O'Brien's TBS set and berating the host while astride his stuffed buffalo, Teddy Jr. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uvqn...

On the last Sunday of this month, Latter-day Saint congregations have been asked to "discuss...the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution and how these documents support religious freedom and our God-given agency.” Guess who gets to lead this for my congregation.

I really want to make a joke about a woman's water breaking and the doctor turning it into wine but I don't know if that's taking things too far.

Imagine you're Riley Gaines, the big-time anti-transgender athlete activist, who has - spoken at a Trump rally - been introduced at CPAC BY Trump - publicly supported Trump - spoke at the RNC in favor of Trump And then you read this:
You be the judge, but for my money, the intro/credits/music for the Netflix seasons of Daredevil are better than the "Born Again" intro/credits/music (Born Again theme still slaps) Netflix: www.youtube.com/watch?v=KFYF... Born Again: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-eCp...

I apologize to anyone who has been interested in the daily poems I've been doing; I wanted to try to do one a day for a whole year but lately it's started to feel more like a chore and I haven't felt as inspired. I may pick it up again here and there.
I swear if I didn't have a good grip on that leash, Biscuit would have done a Leeroy Jenkins right into the lake.
Yes, that is a fully intact spinal column and skull (and more) of some long-passed critter (raccoon?) that my dog found on a trail and started parading around like he's freaking Sub Zero from "Mortal Kombat" 🙄
I love the Star Wars OT, prequels AND sequels, all of them. I love the Hobbit movie trilogy. I believe golden Oreos are better than classic Oreos. I cheer for the STL Cardinals, Celtic FC, St. Louis City FC and Arsenal. I hate - HATE - olives. I have no use for Raising Cane's.
If you are into - a little or a lot - any of these, let's be Bluesky chums: Tolkien Star Wars Star Trek Soccer Baseball Tall ships Cosmere Movies Animals Food (esp. dessert) Being awesome to people, esp. marginalized I am Mormon, I hope that's not a dealbreaker, I try to be chill. #promosky

every shot-on-video, made-with-a-camcorder horror movie that's just some teenage friend group fucking around in the woods with some fake blood and a monster mask contains more artistic merit, human joy and creative light than anything AI has ever made or will ever, ever make
