Can’t recommend this new beginning episode of The Soundtrack Show from @davidwcollins.bsky.social on the brilliant music of The Phantom Menace enough. It’s just as good as you’d think it would be and I can’t wait for this series to continue.
Wow we’re just barely under

Christmas is almost here.
In Ukraine, it begins with Sviat Vechir — a Christmas Eve dinner that starts once the first star can be seen in the sky💫
Ukrainian Christmas is rich with unique and centuries-old traditions, many of which date back to Pagan times🧵
Ukrainian defenders sang Christmas carols beneath the walls of St. Sophia Cathedral in Kyiv.
As the holidays approach, this is a powerful reminder: no enemy can steal Ukrainian traditions. Thank you to our defenders for this moving performance.

Happy thanksgiving, everyone! And last call for Secret Santa — get in today if you want to participate!
