Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, it turns out that there are new Simon’s Cat videos! I don’t know how I missed them. But I’m rectifying that mistake over the next few days.
Here’s the first that I missed.
Have a lovely Wednesday!

Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, THE NEXT STAR WARS MOVIE IS NOW FILMING!!!!
In case you couldn’t tell, this makes me happy.
Also, the official link has a touch of behind the scenes footage! Only about less than 10 seconds. But still worth checking out.
Have a lovely day!

Hiya, Fluffsters!
I’m obviously still not done with Star Wars Fangirling. Duh.
AND I was just introduced to a YouTuber I was previously unaware of. And this video did a 99 second long summary of the first 6 Star Wars movies, using the various medleys. You should listen. It’s FANTASTIC.
Have a lovely Monday!

Hiya, Fluffsters!
I just found a new comic-y thing that I have absolutely fallen in love with. Seriously. It is ADORABLE.
It’s about “Ichabod, the Optimistic Canine.” And I’m not sure how the artist does it, but the character is like the cutest thing ever. I think it’s practically medically guaranteed to brighten your day!
There are about 24 comics; I linked to the first. You can find the others in the left hand side of the page of the comic. Or just keep scrolling down.
Have a lovely Saturday!

Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, I found this. And it was amusing to me.
I hope you enjoy!

Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, this Summer is going to be fun. You see, there’s a new Harry Potter story coming out in book form!
Technically, it’s a script for a play. From what I understand.
But, it’s still the characters, and the universe, and stuff, so it should be fantastic.
Have a lovely Thursday!

Hiya, Fluffsters.
Somebody came up with a fan theory that supposedly connects Disney’s “Beauty and the Beast” with “Aladdin”. The theory is that Belle’s book is referring to Aladdin. The theory was popular enough that it even made a “trending” tag on Facebook. And got a “distractify” article. And other attention.
They cite the lines “Far off places, daring swordfights, magic spells, and a prince in disguise!” and “Here’s where she meets Prince Charming, but she won’t discover that it’s him ’til chapter 3!” as evidence.
My response:
No.
That is PLAINLY false.
The entire point of Aladdin is that he’s in disguise as a prince. He is not a prince in disguise. I don’t think Aladdin ever qualifies as Prince Charming, actually. He never truly becomes a prince, because the Sultan decrees that Jasmine (and any princess) can marry whoever she pleases. Aladdin also wishes Genie free, instead of becoming a prince.
SO THE ENTIRE PREMISE IS WRONG.
Furthermore, it’s always been clear that the book Belle is reading actually has a lot more to do with her own story. She meets a legitimate Prince Charming who is (somewhat) in disguise, and doesn’t realize it until the third act. She’s basically reading her own story!
And if it has to refer to a different Disney Movie, then Sleeping Beauty works at least as well. It takes place in England. That’s relatively far off, compared to provincial France, where Belle is. (Ok, so it’s not as far as Aladdin. But it’s still a ways away.)
Concerning swordfights: The prince fights a dragon with a sword. If that doesn’t count as daring, I don’t know what does.
(As a friendly reminder, I don’t recall Aladdin actually doing much sword fighting, either. He wins by using his non-princely street-smarts.)
Next, “Sleeping Beauty” definitely has magic spells. The entire premise is built around magic spells.
Finally, and more to the point, it has a prince in disguise.
Prince Charming comes waltzing into her life, but she doesn’t realize who it is.
But, he is still a prince.
FROM THE BEGINNING.
And that is actually one of the plot-points of the movie. Unlike Aladdin, where the plot-point is still the reverse.
So, the fan theory does not work.
Any questions?

Hiya, Fluffsters!
So, technology is fun. You see, there was an interesting Podcast that’s been going on for a while, apparently. It was investigating what may have been a mis-trial. It got a lot of attention. It’s called “Serial.”
Anyway, much to my surprise, I found out that it’s actually real. I thought it was all scripted and stuff. Turns out, it wasn’t.
And now, because of it, the case that was investigated in the show is going to trial again.
Interesting time we live in, isn’t it?

Hiya, Fluffsters!
As you may recall from Yesterday’s post (and the post from the day before), there was a rather well done YouTube music “battle” done a few years ago.
Yesterday’s post was the first of the weirdly absurd instruments.
The two competitions afterwords were not as spectacularly bizarre. (There was an Ocarina response, and a Zither response.)
The last two, however, well…
Here they are.
They are masterful.
I mean, seriously. That one was played with cellphones.
And not even smart-phone app technology.
And this next one… Well, part of the reason I’m sharing it today is in honor of who’s singing the National Anthem at the Superbowl.
And… I’ll just leave it at that, and get onto the video.
I mean, seriously.
So, yeah. I think there’s probably a bit of modulation that happened with that video. Maybe. I’m not sure how else the higher notes would have come out.
But isn’t that really well done?
And terrible? (In an epic way?)
Alas, there has been no response. But on the other hand, I’m not sure how anyone would respond, so it’s not too surprising.
Yup.
Anyway, have a lovely day!

Hiya, Fluffsters!
I’m continuing today’s post. And this is where it starts to get… weird.
In response to the Glockenspiel, the original challenge-video-poster plays Moonlight Sonata on… Crockenspiel.
The subsequent reply is then played… on the Gameboy. I kid you not. Check it out, it’s pretty fantastic.
And it gets better.
But that’s for tomorrow.
Have a lovely day!
