beyond the ant hills of the dawning of this plague

3 REASONS I'M SCREAMING INTERNALLY


I: STAR WARS

Veronica Ngo (Ngô Thanh Vân) will play Paige Tico
resistance fighter pilot sis to Kelly Marie Tran's character, Rose Tico
we might barely see her but SISTERS IN STAR WARS
FELLOW SOUTHEAST ASIAN SISTERS AT THAT
IN THE RESISTANCE

also she was a cool action actress in what I've seen of her before

oh and THOSE PORG THINGS
(related: the Star Wars park and the Wrinkle in Time trailer. darn Disney owns too much)


II: THE MARS VOLTA

was getting back into the Mars Volta after hearing the latest At The Drive-In album (it's ok but not quite my sound) 
but while fruitlessly searching for the latest Algiers CD (The Underside of Power), I FINALLY picked up a copy of Frances the Mute and it is an awesome rebirth stage of my music dive recovery phase rn

so in moments I'm all SINK YOUR TEETH INTO THE FLESH OF MIDNIGHT/NIGHT FOREVER MORE and I feel powerful again


III. JODIE WHITTAKER

I burned out of Doctor Who some time during Clara's time there (I liked her and Capaldi, and what I've heard/seen of Bill looks promising, but Moffatt...)

but I've really liked Whittaker for a while and THIS IS A MAJOR CAREER TURN I'M HAPPY FOR HER

now...who's the new showrunner
