The Giants’ Double-A affiliate is playing this week here in Altoona. The @GoSquirrels bullpen taped up a sign to opposing fans, saying “We cannot give you a ball. We just traded for Devers and he cost a lot of $.” pic.twitter.com/Qhwfw3I47u

fine, damn 😩 When the movie was still in early production, we all had the opportunity to pitch different versions of Jinu and Rumi’s date. I wanted them to have a classic aquarium one and even wrote little lines 😅😅 it was such a fun exercise! #KPOPDEMONHUNTERS #rujinu #JINUMI https://t.co/uO6oJCuW8l pic.twitter.com/vEYuts8RHV

I will share more later this week, but one of my favorite assignments on #KPOPDEMONHUNTERS was to design ancient hunters! We did a lot of research on Korean historical fashion and I hope we did it justice 💜 https://t.co/rlu80Rxvdd pic.twitter.com/rScRpYEH1y

("The Saja Boys, comprising members Jinu (Ahn Hyo-seop), Abby, Mystery, Romance, and Baby, were inspired by Korean groups such as Tomorrow X Together, BTS, Stray Kids, ATEEZ, BIGBANG, and Monsta X. There’s always a muscular one who shows off their abs; one who was the romantic type (“I purposely gave him these bangs that were meant to be heart-shaped”); and, the baby of the group.")i’ve gotten a lot of questions on inspirations for Saja boys, so look! our director @maggiemkang answered a lot of them here 😚https://t.co/eU1kRWy3mq

("For some of the songs, we did as many iterations, or close to, as on storyboards because you had to. Some of the story keeps changing and we needed some of the lyrics to be a little different, and when you do that the rhythm of it could change. I don’t know if the songwriters were told that from the start. Some of them were like, “What? That’s not how we work in pop music!” But we do an animation!") ("We worked really hard to create mouth shapes and eye shapes that were very Korean. So even though the girls are speaking in English, they were mouth shapes that you would only make as a Korean person, with our Korean language. ")The directors of ‘KPop Demon Hunters’ discuss the unexpected challenges of making an animated K-pop film.https://t.co/2dWwyM4xMa

Wonderful audiobook for Tamsyn Muir's "Princess Floralinda and the Forty-Flight Tower"
A princess with no real skills is imprisoned by a witch atop a tower packed with monsters, and realizes no one is coming to save her. Performed by Moira Quirk. Available at Amazon, although I listened to it in Libby.
