Finally! My partner talks about this non-stop every holiday season and literally pauses the movie to back out and watch this scene from the extras section every time she re-watches it (and I love her for it ❤) and I've seen reddit threads going back several years now discussing how Disney has talked about adding it back into the movie on D+. Seemed like it was maybe just forgotten, but it's finally happening!!

If you don’t start leaking out of your eyeholes during at least ONE song from the Muppet Christmas Carol soundtrack, then I have some CAPCHA’s for you, cuz you ain’t human.

My weaknesses are When Love is Gone, Bless us All, and It Feels Like Christmas.

I also maintain that whoever made the decision to CUT the When Love is Gone scene from the movie was Evil Incarnate. It gutted one of the most emotional scenes in the movie and broke the flow terribly.

In case you’ve never seen it:

ETA:

APPARENTLY Disney+ is finally making things right and will have the FULL (“Director’s Cut” psssh!) available starting DECEMBER 9th!!! FINALLY

it’s december 1 where’s the christmas tail kitten bring him to me

Support the BBC for having a trans character in recent episodes of 'Doctor Who'

Apparently the BBC (UK) has had 144 complaints about a recent episode of Doctor Who because it contained an openly trans character.

I've made a complaint to the BBC that there weren't enough transgender characters in Doctor Who. I would love if 144 other people did the same thing. Here's the link: https://www.bbc.co.uk/contact/complaints/make-a-complaint/#/Complaint

(For your easy reference: "The Star Beast" aired on 25/11/2023 on BBC One, and the trans character is called Rose.)

Please note that the complaint form asks for your UK postcode, so only UK folks can join in with this - but if you suspect you might have any UK-based followers, maybe give us a reblog to boost the signal?

Reply when you've done it, so I can keep track of us!

Here's my complaint:

I recommend:

Avoid sarcasm or irony. Assume your post will be taken literally. If you are clearly joking or being mean you will be ignored or misunderstood.

Include some gratitude/appreciation. It's pretty great that they included a trans woman in a positive way, and they should know that they have explicit support for that.

To any suicidal followers I may have: This is a sign to not kill yourself. You are loved and the world is special because you are in it. Keep holding on.

Reblog this when it’s on your dash. You will save someone’s life.

Gahhh @dduane has been teasing us about this YW "thing" for at least several years now and I do my very best to be a patient reader but omg I am so READY 😅

Could you please confirm you were joking about having that twist from Overture in your head for 20 years I'm very bad at telling when people are joking

22 years. 1990 to 2013. I had a lot of Overture in my head waiting for a very long time.

WTF… it’s The Day That’s In It and we may as well get this over with. :)

For 24 hours (…or no, let’s tell the truth: actually until local midnight on the 30th, because what’s the rush? – and also, there’s always somebody finding out about this kind of thing a bit late…), get our whole DRM-free Ebooks Direct ebook store (35 novels and short works!) for USD $44! The info’s right here:

(…And then I can sit back and stop worrying about the fecking Marketing Season, and get back to writing and cooking.) 

(…Actually, I tell a lie. My true intention for “after I finish work today” is to activate one of these lovely gifts I’ve been sent and completely flood my screen with crabs. And then screencap the results and post the video. …So as soon as this post achieves (picks a random number) 250 reblogs, I’ll do that.

(So go forth, y’all, and act accordingly.) :) 

At Ebooks Direct: OWL BE HOME FOR CHRISTMAS

Warning! Contains:

New York City

The Tree in Rockefeller Plaza

Young Wizards grown up (okay, in their mid-twenties, be that way.)

Please note that this is your last chance to obtain the ebook at its present low price before all the prices at the Ebooks Direct store go up on January 1st.

Get Owl Be Home For Christmas

This work also appears in Interim Errantry 2: On Ordeal, as well as a standalone volume in the "All The Wizardry" bundle.*

...As usual, with regret, please note that due to Brexit, Ebooks Direct can no longer sell directly to UK-based readers. (More details here.) However, if you're UK-based, you can obtain the Kindle ebook of Owl... or the print or ebook versions of Interim Errantry 2 from Amazon.co.uk.

And a minor side note: last week's medical expenses took something of an unplanned-for bite out of local finance, so reblogs would be welcome just now, if you feel inclined. Please & thank you!

*Now that I think of it, it's also in the 2023 Pride Month package. This little bird really gets around... :)

Ok, but now how about they codify this into law so it's not so easy to flip back and forth just based on who is currently appointed to the FCC :/
