@thebethocracy.bsky.social I'm glad I found an SPS parent on BlueSky! Can you point me towards anyone else to follow?

Smallville season 4: Lex tells Lana he narced that she was dating a teacher because she isn't grown, he has to protect her from abuse of power. Lex is grooming Lana and she calls him on it. Too bad they end up dating later. 🤢

Walk-on ferries out of Seattle are amazing. Transit options on the islands and peninsulas, not so much. I almost got stranded in Poulsbo this weekend but a friendly bus-driver warned me the bus stopped running at 4 PM on Sundays. I hate to have to bring my car on my next visit!

I'm 16 years late, but I watched The Social Network for the first time ago a week ago. Then today at Spider-Man I was surprised by a trailer for the sequel, The Social Reckoning. I'm looking forward to the follow-up to the villain origin story.

I am finally onto a Smallville season 4 episode I remember! Jynx, which introduces Mxyzptlk from comics lore. I thought the name was so memorably unusual I read up on the character on KryptonSite.

Watching Pokémon: The First Movie with my kids. I noticed Meowth says, "Send in the clones!" This was also the title of a Xena episode about a year or two later. Where did this expression come from? Play on "Send in the Clowns"?

The attack on trans girls is an attack on all girls and women. I would not let my cis daughter undergo such an invasive exam to play sports--neither would many parents. Destroying trans people AND women's sports is the endgame.

An initiative on the ballot in Washington state in November would require all athletes seeking to play girl's sports from kindergarten to high school to undergo "genetic screening, a testosterone-levels test, or an examination of their reproductive anatomy" before they can play

I'm on the Smallville episode where Clark Kent and Lionel Luthor switch bodies. Tom Welling is so funny! I hope the writers give him more camp. Also as Clark, Lionel hits on two high school students and gets so turned on by smelling Martha Kent's hair he has a fire-eyes erection.

Watching #BB28 on my 21-year-old TV on honor of "What's a VHS?" Lyric. My favorite part is the #TAR39 commercials. I'm comin' for ya, Phil!

Smallville circa 2004: Lois Lane quips about Martha Stewart's prison time. Was it really that long ago? Not quite as head-turning as when Willow said, "Have you Googled her yet?" a year earlier on Buffy.

Several family friends are evacuating in the city of Spokane due to the Old Trails fire. They live in neighborhoods in the city--not rural locations. Stuck in gridlock evacuating.

The other thing about this presser is the media is so clearly wanting to make Wilson look bad. They ask why miscommunication happened on Sunday. The answer is right in front of them - Chief Barnes failed - but they want to pin it on Wilson instead.

Gotta say, @mayor.seattle.gov is doing a great job with this press conference. Not only is the content solid, she's delivering it with confidence and assurance. seattlechannel.org/watch-live

On to Smallville season 4 episode 3 "Facade." Unfortunately back to high school we go. I was ready to be done with it. Got to get our new cast in there. Lois Lane is a super senior. Jensen Ackles gets a job as the football coach to date a student. At least Freak of the Week is back! #Smallville

Mayor Wilson is being held to a different standard, for sure. Katie is being transparent. And taking actions to fix communications. But there are so many sharks with other agendas!

When Bruce Harrell was mayor, SPD kept information around a potential serial killer in Capitol Hill and First Hill from the public for a number of weeks, something that did not get as much media attention as a press conference being delayed for three hours. www.capitolhillseattle.com/2024/05/poli...

Lois Lane is searching for her cousin Chloe's alleged killer. No justice for her uncle (Chloe's dad)? I didn't know if he was dead or alive until they showed his grave next to Chloe's. #Smallville season 4!

Found my Final Fantasy VII piano album burned in high school. Got to sing "I'm bored, so bored, right out of my brain" during the "Descendant of Shinobi" theme in honor of reboot Yuffie. #FinalFantasyVII

My impressions as a newbie: this is getting less interesting with one side dominating and ppl afraid to vote against the house. I agree w/ Jason about the season being boring w/o him. I might take a break--already watching feeds less and instead relying on #BBSky recaps. #bb28

On to Smallville season 4! I adore Erica Durance as Lois already. And I went WHAT when Jensen Ackles appeared on the credits before he was introduced in the episode. I have fewer memories of the show at this point so I'm excited to be surprised. #Smallville

Smallville introduces Adrianne Palicki's "Kara Zor-El" (Supergirl) while walking up to Clark's house naked because... Kryptonians don't wear clothes?

Got this red Pikmin in Nintendo Today and couldn’t resist

The year is 2026 and I am watching the Social Network for the first time. #hdcrt #dvd

Rewatching Smallville, it's funny how Chloe, Lex, and Lionel are so obsessed with finding out Clark Kent's secret. The town is full of "meteor freaks." Why would they think Clark is anything different?

I finally watched Better Call Saul because I loved Pluribus and wanted another show that rewards attention. Kim Wexler was a great character and I'm really glad she was her own downfall.

I finished Better Call Saul. Despite everyone reassuring me it is was the better show, I didn't really want to revisit Saul or Breaking Bad. It was indeed satisfying overall, but I wish I'd stopped when Jimmy and Kim split and he truly became Saul.

Is Backrooms accessible to those unfamiliar with the creepypasta or YouTube series?

I'm almost done watching Better Call Saul for the first time. I was surprised to see The Amazing Race made a brief cameo in the penultimate episode. BCS doesn't go too hard on pop culture references or reminding us it is a period show. #TAR #BetterCallSaul

The next press conference on the Seattle Center mass shooting is today at 11, streamed on the Seattle Channel. Police Chief Barnes flew back from his home in Chicago.

What is going on with this "accessible" parking spot? Spotted in Fremont, Seattle.

The local news is inadvertently revealing that Bite of Seattle vendors aren't from #Seattle. They're waiting around Seattle Center waiting to pack up their booths. Wish they'd had a better welcome to our city.
