I was SO TICKLED when I stumbled into this exhibit in Lisbon and discovered that there was a pre-internet-meme Goose Game!
There are/ were several other examples of the game in the book/ exhibit, including a chess combo from 19th c China.
They're bonkers! They go from that deep fuchsia to the palest translucent pink-y ecru, and some of them unfurl to just gargantuan dimensions. This is one bundle I bought at Trader Joe's a few years ago, day of purchase to a week later.
So apparently if it weren't Marine Layer Season in L.A., we WOULD have a good chance at seeing the aurora in the Basin! This is a shot from the Mount Wilson Obvservatory cam!
He's quite a bit taller than (putatively 6'1) Cavill, though? I only threw Affleck in there because he seems much LESS taller-than-Cavill and I actually have a bead on how tall Affleck is IRL. Oddly, men who work as models/actors also usually lie *downward* about their height when they're over 6'3.
2020 was the first year my cat experienced presents and a stocking bc she's usually in L.A. with a sitter when I'm home for the holidays, and she had always been Very Excited about ornaments/ the tree, but all those boxes and tissue practically had her singing A Whole New World.

The Criterion Channel isn't really up over here, but this is an absolute banger collection of movies coming in Feb, including one of my newer all-time favorites, A Matter of Life and Death:
LOL, I never have these on hand, but I happen to have been telling a friend last night how ABSURDLY hot Lawrence Olivier was when young, in Technicolor, and flailing/charming his way through a screwball comedy instead of brooding.
DC had some REALLY great leaving-the-Bechdel-test-in-the-dust full issue comic books this week (Birds of Prey! Poison Ivy!), but my brain snagged on this moment in Fire and Ice #1. Is this an already established bit of back story? Bc it's perfect, and I would read that romance.
