Scott's review of Calling In - BookWyrm
This book is advocating, and hoping to start a movement of activism, based less in call-outs, and more in call-in. Bascially, less shunning and insulting of an opposing believe, political or otherwise. And more leaving room to a discussion. Sometimes based less in opposition, and rather finding areas of similarity. This of course is for people open to such...

Scott's review of All the Ways to Go - BookWyrm
This was a good book. Very much written for kids. But still smart, and well made. If you can read it as your kid self, you can get much out of it. Or just learn where kids are now.
The characters are well done. Even some of the more ancillary ones. It does a good job of presenting annoying characters. Then humanizing them. It doesnt do this by...

Scott's review of Inside Out : A Memoir - BookWyrm
Demi is very honest & generous. For a woman who has been hounded by tabloids, she gives alot of herself here. Even bad behavior on her part. Even moments some might consider embarrassing. And she tells it unflinchingly in the audiobook. I think she tries to explain rather than give excuse. She willingly accepts blame for the things she did.
She also offers the hope...

I live in Louisiana. And I just experienced 9 inches of snow. And I had the day off. And I have gone buck wild making snow ppl. These are the first I have ever made. I am so proud of my dudes.
I cant mention enough how rare snow is in my area. And this much snow is really rare. And most of the times it has snowed in the last 30 years, I couldnt play. But I reeaally got to today. And I had so much fun. I am so glad.

Scott's review of Predator's Gold - BookWyrm
I liked the movie, so I read the book (1) version, and was glad there was more of this interesting world. And this book continues it. Tho maybe a bit unevenly.
This takes place 2 years after the the first book. And for a good while, it seems uninterested in picking up book 1 threads except for Hester and Tom. Who I was glad to see are keeping on with...

ehhhh... Initially, i was upset at that, but that's when i thought it was everyone's stuff, across the board.
But this, this can be a layer of privacy. One that is optionable. Whiiiiich is good if one wants that kind of curtain. At least it's not a site exclusivity.
It's less a wall of the garden, more a privacy curtain.

#WarOfTheRohirrim is a great #movie. Very true to the visuals of the trilogy. And also very focused on its story.
When a call of the Rohan nobles comes together. A ill fated challenge goes wrong. Which tears a family, troubles a people, and causes the death and suffering of many.
Great fights, fantastic backgrounds, voice acting that is in line w/ the trilogy. The pacing is slow, but pays off in the end. Well told story.

I dont want to shun the ppl on Threads. But I also dont want to play the game of "either you give us a way to you, or you're a bad person for being rude to our users."

I should have worded that better.
I meant would Threads/Meta the company be able to data mine me if a Threads account follows or engadges with my posts.
Of course the company has the resources & motivation to make an apperatus to do that. There is also the question if legally they can do that (not that that nessicarily stops them). There are GDPR considerations. But also, I'm guessing the Threads user has an agreement w/ them, but I dont, and it's my data.

So, does anyone know if a Threads person following &/or engadging with me means they can or will datamine me?
Trying to decide if i want to blanket ban Threads accouts.

I think it's more I dont see this kinda thing often. I dont expect to see gulls eating like this.
It's still a cool pic. More so that it's not a meme.

Behind The Scenes: #OverTheGardenWall | 10th Anniversary Stop Motion Short | Cartoon Network
A look at how ⭐#Aardman put together the anniversary special short. From how the puppets were made, how they were animated, the VFX involved, level of detail in the sets, even the logo.
I'll be honest, I didnt watch too much, cause I want to preserve the magic of this short. But if you are interested, it is interesting.

#Alien #Romulous is pretty much aces. I didnt have high hopes from the trailer. Might not have seen it if not for a view party. But now, I had a ride. This was something. Scares so good, I was still recovering an hr after. A damn good script. Ties to the wider mythos that doesnt feel cheap. It has flaws, but ~easily~ forgiven by how good everything else is.
