It's a review-less day, but I wanted to take the time to wish all my friends in the Bookish Community a very Happy Christmas with my very Bookish tree! #Bookthreads #BookSky#Bookstagram #Bookstadon #BannedBooks #ReadingRainbow #MychalThreets #LeVarBurton #PBS #Christmas2025

ADVENT24/12_DEC24

Mistigram: when they hang the mistletoe on the #NCC1701D, #GeordiLaForge finally has a good excuse to kiss the hologram of #LeahBrahms, as in the #STTNG S3E6, “Booby Trap”. Darkman Almighty drew the moment for this date in last year’s ADVENT24 #ANSIart #AdventCalendar.

A propos ***nothing at all***, yesterday I left copies of ON TYRANNY: TWENTY LESSONS FROM THE TWENTIETH CENTURY by Timothy Snyder in three of our local Little Free Libraries.

Reminder: "Read the books they're banning. That's where the good stuff is."
--LeVar Burton

Found these in a box of old mugs that I'd previously packed away. Brought them back out to use.

I had so much #TwinPeaks merchandise, pretty much anything I could get my hands on.

I saw #PatrickStewart in his one-man show of #AChristmasCarol at #CalTech way before he went to Broadway. Such a great intimate venue for that show. And then when the lights went up after the show was over, it turned out that #JonathanFrakes, #MichaelDorn and #LeVarBurton had all been at the show as well.

Mug with fuzzy blue cloudy image with the vague outline of a man pointing a finger forward. Text says "Change these shadows... by an altered life." Charles Dickens

Mug with the words

Patrick Stewart
"A Christmas Carol"

Y'know who actually -deserves- a Nobel Peace Prize?

LeVar Burton.

READING RAINBOW debuted on this date in 1983.

Levar Burton hosted this Emmy-winning kids’ reading series for 23 years and 155 episodes.

"No young black men were taking the lead in this kind of show,” producer Cecily Truett said in 2017. "He was like Fred Rogers, talking directly to the audience.”

Wow, this checks a lot of boxes for me.

If you need a bit of joy right now, I can recommend the #queer #math #scifi short story "The Simplest Equation" by Nicky Drayden, - I listened to it on the podcast #LevarBurtonReads . You don't need to be a math fan / nerd to enjoy this.

Young Levar Burton with a very 80s haircut and mustache wearing a purple tweed suit coat and matching blue tie in the backseat if a cab, saying "Pulitzer prizes are made, Mrs. Fletcher." He has one eyebrow lifted and is smiling.
