🎮 It’s happening.

Facebook Live museum tours on my calendar today, The Dark Crystal exhibit at the Center for Puppetry Arts and Tim Burton at the Neon Museum.

Because it’s seasonally appropriate, today we’re listening to Christo Graham’s Muppet Christ Superstar.

Guess I have to not Internet until after our copy of FF7R gets here… See y’all later, probably with lots of thoughts on books I’m reading to take my mind off not having the video game, I guess?

📺 My wishlist for Picard Season 2:

1. Geordi
2. More Spot II

Feeling like hiding today, but I worked on recruiting for my dissertation and put my CV on kimberlyhirsh.com. Also tried avocado-based chocolate “ice cream” and it was delicious. I radically prefer it to any other non-dairy frozen dessert. Marco Polo continues to make me happy because it’s kind of like texting with somebody’s face and voice. Plans for future blog posts include continuing my series of Steal Like an Artist for scholars (and then moving on to Show Your Work and Keep Going), advice on streaming aquarium cams, and watching Groundhog Day.

I definitely have some sensory processing problems & they’ve gotten worse since isolating. I have to hide when my kid gets loud & chatty after dinner & suddenly I can’t stand the feel of fabrics that never bothered me before.

I’m reading Lori Morimoto’s (@acafanmom on Twitter) book, An Introduction to Media Fan Studies and it’s so good. Highly recommend, look for a + review once I’m finished.

Something about watching Picard gives me the same feeling as reading a novel and I love it. 📺🖖
