#MoonKnight Overall I enjoyed it. It was intriguing but also confusing for those not familiar w the comic. After Episode 4 I did research into Marc Spector's history & learned about Jake so mid-credits scene was not a surprise - esp since they showed the shaking sarcophagus in the recap.

Anyone else feel like something was missing? Maybe context of how it fits into #MCU?

So many questions. If avatars can get powers from gods/goddesses like Moon Knight & whatever Layla turned into why didn't those other avatars get into their costumes and fight Harrow in the pyramid? And speaking of Layla, why would a hippo goddess avatar have wings?

I never quite understood why Harrow put broken glass in his shoes in that 1st scene. His version of penance? Do the bleeding feet mean the gods no longer accept his penance? But wasn't that scene in the mental hospital still in Mark/Steven's mind? But didn't the bleeding let Mark/Steven know that it wasn't real? 🀯

Morning all! If there is anyone else using #Duolingo to learn languages, you can add me as a friend if you want. I’m currently learning Ukrainian. Other languages I have worked on (but not completed in the app) are German, Greek, Latin, and Irish Gaeilge. I’ve also learned some Norwegian, Spanish and French through other means.

#MayTheFourthBeWithYou

It dawned on me that I didn't put #StarWars in my #introduction or my profile. I've always liked it - I saw Eps IV, V, & VI in theaters during their original runs - but I never really considered myself part of the fandom since I didn't get into the video games or expanded universe.

Then I found myself giving an impassioned speech about why #Hanshotfirst...

...and I realized I kept VHS versions of the original trilogy because even though I had the 1997 Special Edition abominations I wanted the theatrical releases...

...and I also owned the 2004 DVD trilogy release because it included the original theatrical versions but still kept the VHS tapes...

...and I had DVDs of Hardware Wars & the animated microseries Star Wars: Clone Wars...

And so on.

I shouldn't discount my fandoms because I don't participate in all variations. I never got through all of Enterprise & haven't seen Discovery but I still consider myself a #StarTrek fan.

Updating my profile now.

Some people ask about how to get "verified" on #Mastodon but...

We do NOT have such a thing! Mastodon and the Fediverse is mainly about a social experience with a good privacy system. This includes to keep as less (sensitive) data as we can on every one of you!

We are no Twitter, we do not want personal documents or data! Everyone on Mastodon is the same "rank". There are many other ways people can prove who they are by posting from their Twitter for example! β€‹

Please, do not send any personal data to us, we will delete this right away. Privacy first! πŸ”’

If you do want a verified icon, you can simply add a custom emoji in your display name with a shortcode β€‹β€‹

I've secured my tickets for #DoctorStrange for Saturday at noon, so I only need to avoid spoilers for 36 hours.

It will be my first time in a theater since December 2019, when I saw Rise of Skywalker.

Anyone else been watching Moon Knight? I was finally able to catch up on episode 5, which I do have to admit was the strongest yet, but wow does it seem like there's still so much to wrap up in a finale episode.

For what it's worth, I think this was a good episode because it really zoomed in and focused on letting Oscar's charm and acting chops carry the whole episode instead of kind of a weak plot.
