As an aromantic asexual it’s good to have something to make folk aware of my aro-orientation.
Not all asexuals are aromantic and not all aromantics are asexual.
At times for me the aromantic part makes me feel more different than the asexual part.
Any questions?

Today is the start of #AroWeek (Aromantic Spectrum Awareness Week) 💚

Aro is an umbrella term used by people who experience little to no romantic attraction. Some may feel attraction occasionally, or at varying levels.

The final episode is probably going to involve a dream, shower, snow globe or all three….

On today’s BBC daytimesoap Doctors they are in a virtual world (on location) with an AI played by an actress in a top hat & suit & a terrible CGI dragon flew in. Meanwhile a technician is on an emotional phone call. It’s WILD. Apparently they are using virtual reality for health?

Like this show got cancelled and the people behind it clearly have no more fucks to give. We’ve had a furry coming out to/reconciling with his grandad episode, an episode with a stand up therapist, an episode of a dinner party of pain. It’s mind boggling.

[Valiant Entertainment @ValiantComics]

Valiant Entertainment and @alien_books are partnering to bring a NEW DAWN to the Valiant Universe. This isn’t a reboot… it’s a refresh! Look for more titles in 2024, the return of trades, and so much more!

Am I drafting a post for @BiggerThanCapes on the Star Trek Lower Decks trade inbetween watching Star Wars Visions 2? Why yes I am and my predictive text is having a hell of time working out which Star I mean.

[Angela @crpenguin]

This was just a perfect read in single issues so I’m delighted to finally have the whole thing in my hands. Anyone who is a Star Trek fan should check it out.

[Chris Fenoglio @ChrisFenoglio]

The Star Trek: Lower Decks (the comic) trade is out TODAY! From @IDWPublishing By @ryanqnorth, myself, edited by @heatherantos and Vanessa Real, and letters by @johannanattalie and Jake Wood.

If you've been waiting for the trade, now's your chance!

I was perhaps predisposed to love this anyway but yeah very much enjoyed.

[Angela @crpenguin]

G.I.L.T was one of the best books of 2022 no question.
Also #WellOiledJigsaw is my favourite review analogy.
In conclusion read G.I.L.T. You won’t regret it. It really is that good.

[AHOY Comics @AhoyComicMags]

"One of the joys of G.I.L.T. is seeing the characters choices play out. How much of this is under their own control and how much is destiny?"

The folks at @BiggerThanCapes love G.I.L.T. by @akwitney and @Mauricet34, and you should too. #WellOiledJigsaw

It was the most traumatic recording we’ve ever done. Thank god the books made up for it.

[Angela @crpenguin]

This is so on my most enjoyed comics list this year. I want more, need more. So good. Cannot recommend highly enough.

[Angela @crpenguin]

I haven’t been as on the ball with reviewing for @BiggerThanCapes lately. I blame the time suck that is dog ownership and general winter blues. Also possibly binge watching Star Trek Discovery.
Normal service hopefully will start being resumed this week.

[Angela @crpenguin]

Hey look at me attempting to clear my massive reviewing back log!

[Angela @crpenguin]

Trying a new feature over on the website.

[Angela @crpenguin]

It was a good month!

[Angela @crpenguin]

Sorry for the time it’s taken to get this review out. 😜

[Angela @crpenguin]

I have no idea what I was thinking when I used the phrase well oiled jigsaw in a review but I’m glad I did. Also go read G.I.L.T. It is excellent. And not literally oily, nor do you have to put it together. Win!

[AHOY Comics @AhoyComicMags]

“A comic that proves graphic fiction can be whatever you put your mind to”��@AIPTcomics

“A well oiled jigsaw”—@BiggerThanCapes

“With spicy, intelligent dialogue and all the quirks that time travel can impose”—@GeekVibesNation

G.I.L.T. hits bookstores and comic stores tomorrow!

[Angela @crpenguin]

For reference I blame @zachraygun entirely.

[Angela @crpenguin]

Also Lower Decks is the best current Star Trek show. Fact.

I’ve not retweeted any of my reviews for a bit so here’s my most recent one!
