How The Great British Baking Show changed my life

The Great British Baking Show changed my life.  No, really — I know sometimes people use that phrase for fun to joke or exaggerate, but this delightful little baking show actually impacted me on a level I didn’t anticipate when I first started watching it.  The show has been around

Wrap-up: Dragon Con 2023

by Jen “Lil’ Bit” Schleusner Another Dragon Con has come and gone, and this year it took me over a month to recover! Finally though, it’s time to recap my experiences. As expected, Barbie took the lead in costumes this year. From movie outfits, Barbenheimer crossovers, mashups, spilling off the

Movie review: The Creator

The Creator is one of those movies that, the moment I finished watching it, I immediately felt compelled to start talking/writing about it. That’s not to say this is an instant sci-fi masterpiece, or something that dramatic. It didn’t take my breath away the same way that Blade Runner 2049

An evening with George Takei

I live in a town of about 50,000 in the Midwest, but because it’s a college town, I’m grateful to have access to unique experiences I might not otherwise encounter in a town of this size. Last night, I got to hear actor and author George Takei speak on the
