Some things I've watched: 

Live action Aladdin -> ( why, oh why did I watch this? )Though it did make me want to watch the cartoons afterwards, and those sequels really aren't great, but I have basically every original song stuck in my head at some point during the day for the last several days.

Spies in Disguise -> ( it was real cute, and yeah, I ship it. + fic rec )

the_rewatch_job is starting up the first week of February, and even though I'd gotten through the first season already on my rewatch, I'm going to follow along. If you've never watched Leverage, I'll bet this is the way to do it. You can watch it free with ads on IMDB TV, you just have to sign in with them -> I watch it on the Amazon Prime app IMDB channel.

( 'What your MCU ships says about you.' But I am also just tickled with this dude's dead eye stare delivery. )

I think the last time I referred to myself as trash it was in a comment to a post someone had made about the new Terminator Dark Fate trailer which features this song that haunts my dreams:



But I called myself Terminator trash. If there's a terminator movie I'm going to watch it whether it's good or not, for me it's because I like the idea of terminators so much. I remember my mom leaving for work and telling my older brother not to let me watch the movie because I was too little and it was too scary. So we immediately watched the movie. Was I too little? Was it too scary? Yes. Emphatically yes, and I have ongoing occasional nightmares that a terminator is after me that leave me in a cold sweat and necessitate easy to reach nightlights even at the presidential age of 35. (Similar story with Jaws, though in that case the cartoon Street Sharks made the nightmares super weird.)

So trash. I have good feelings about the word, but probably because it's my label and hasn't ever been used against me. It releases me from having to be good or good at something as valued by others. I can just try my best, or accept that the things I like aren't the best, but I like them and that makes them worthwhile to me. This probably isn't news to y'all, but I sat at the kid's table for years when it came to understanding my media consumption.

I was thinking about trash during Toy Story 4, which was not exactly what I wanted due to the lack of funny, but Forky's existential crises about whether it is trash or toy is what I wanted based on the trailer. I liked Forky's character arc, kinda wish it had been more the point.

All of this was brought on by this article: Used Sporks in the Hands of an Angry God: Toy Story 4, The Good Place, and What it Means to Be Trash

Not my response the the sunshine challenge, but related. So how about it? Trash, yea or nay? And if yea, what sort of trash are you?

I don't know, I can't imagine that these haven't been passed around before, but I just found them so I thought I'd share too. : ) Because who doesn't need a few mostly naked Disney princes to brighten up their Sunday?

( Here are two of my favorite. )

Peter Pan is kinda adorable too, but Will Turner scares me. So who is your favorite? : ) Who missed the cut?

ETA: In something that might be relevant -> disney_kink.

So, I’m curious. Michael Shanks wanted time off from Stargate so that he could make such cinematic gems as those two Lifetime movies and Megasnake?! If so, then I have a bone to pick with whoever made and encouraged that genius decision. *rolls eyes*

Not a lot to say. This episode seemed kinda like filler for me.
