Welcome back to #SciFiSaturday! I've been focused on #StarTrekStrangeNewWorlds this week, but I also got to sneak in some anthology horror with #TheOuterLimits and #TalesFromTheDarkSide. I also finally got around to watching #TheNightStrangler TV movie. How about you? #StarTrek #nerdlyfe

A 1980s woodgrain TV. Approximately 20 or 25 inches, and has analog dials on the front.

It's been a week. We lost Oliver to metastatic cancer around 5 am last Monday. I've had him since he was a baby & he's always snuggled w/ me like a baby. The 1st picture was taken when he was ~3 months old. The last picture was around last Christmas. So grateful for the 16 years we had w/ our boy.

It's hard to beat Hopper IMO for the best TV dad. Tell me your favorite TV or movie dad.

#SciFiSaturday is upon us! I was able to get to the theater a couple times this week for #MOTU and #Backrooms! I also enjoyed a good bit of anthology TV horror. Stay tuned for why next week! How about you? #nerdlyfe

Ashley Thomas@thenerdyblogger· Jun 16

Date night with my best guy. 🥰 @andlooksaround.bsky.social hasn’t seen MOTU yet, so we need to fix that. 😊 Nyaaaaaah!

It's #SciFiSaturday! Throwing it back this week with some classic TV #SciFi---the 90s #OuterLimits, #TalesFromTheDarkside, and #FridayThe13thTheSeries. How about you? #nerdlyfe

Played Monica’s “Like This and Like That” in a DJ set tonight because I was trying to get the crowd to guess my age. This was the first album I bought w/ my own money. I’d like to think 10 year-old me would be proud of 40 year-old me for grooving all the way home to this straight banger of an album.

Screenshot from Spotify of Monica’s 1995 album, Miss Thang.

To celebrate Mother's Day, tell me your favorite TV/Movie mom. No better TV/Movie Mom in my opinion than Joyce Byers. How about you?

I am not joking or exaggerating when I say that this movie healed something in me the first time I watched it. It is still encouraging to me as a weird girl who never fit, but found her own tank to drive and friends to ride with eventually.

Today is Tank Girl Day! On this day in 1995, #TankGirl hit theaters. While it wasn't appreciated in its time, this is a film that means a great deal to me. I'm grateful it's getting a renaissance now, but I wish it could have been appreciated upon release. 🧵

Happy Galentine's Day!!!!!

Amy Poehler as Leslie Knope from Parks and Recreation, answering the question, "What's Galentine's Day?!"

“Oh, it's only the best day of the year. Every February 13, my lady friends and I leave our husbands and our boyfriends at home, and we just come and kick it breakfast style. Ladies celebrating ladies. It's like Lilith Fair, minus the angst. Plus frittatas.”

@tpforyourearholes.com Since y’all are talking about this on the show this week, thought I’d pull out my laserdisc copy to watch since it’s been a minute.

If you see this, re-post with your model of positive masculinity. (This is during an interview for @fangirlish.bsky.social where I ask David Ajala & @actordougjones.bsky.social about what it means to be two of the best examples of positive masculinity on television).

I hope you and yours have a fun and exciting Thanksgiving today!

This is giving me Dance Party vibes.
