The January Meme Strikes Back

[selenak]

Pick a date below and give me a topic, and I'll ramble on. I'm good at talking. It can be anything from fandom-related (specific characters, actors, storylines, episodes, which Disney Marvel shows are my faves and why, why the world should give the Tudors a rest and make a Stuarts era show or several instead, which 18th century ladies need their own series, etc.) to life-related to favorite tea brands to whatever you want.

They will probably be brief, or not, depending on the subject. Also, I reserve the right to decline prompts that I don't feel equipped to meet.

Topics: you can get an idea from my tags/from the stuff I usually ramble about/from things you maybe wish I talked about more but don't. Also, please feel free to check out the 2025 meme,  the 2024 meme,  the 2023 January meme, the2022 January meme, the 2021 January Meme, the January Meme: 2020 Edition, the 2019 one, the 2018 meme, the 2017 edition , and the 2016 January meme to see which topics I've written about in past years.

Usually I just bemoan the state of Star Trek/Marvel whatever but I don't even have the energy for that anymore. So something else that popped into my head:

Which incarnations of the Doctor would get on best with which Starfleet Captains of Star Trek?

[selenak]

Done!

[redfiona99]

They are never going to give the Tudors a rest :)

How about 5 places everyone should visit in Germany?

[selenak]

Done!

[redfiona99]

Thank you

The Brontes would be my choice. I've adored them since I was a child in Bangladesh reading the MacMillan condensed versions.

Favorite hiking spots around Munich. You know, in case I manage to come (with a working knee and hamstring).

[selenak]

Done!

[mildred_of_midgard]

Nice, thank you!

January 10th. Definitely the Stuarts! The more I learn about Charles 1st, the more I conclude he was a complete idiot.... And James was an interesting case as well.

[selenak]

The first of two Stuarts post is posted!

[aurumcalendula]

Favorite tv show you watched in 2025?

[selenak]

Done!

January 15th, Andor: Syril Karn on Ghorman, on "going native".

[selenak]

Done!

Given all space and time, and all history and fiction, which offer of adventure would you be most likely to accept - and which one would you definitely decline?

Any date would be fine.

[selenak]

Done!

If it's not too late, I'd love to hear you talk about assorted public transportation options you've taken while traveling, both domestically and internationally, and whether or not any stuck out to you for any reason.

[selenak]

Done!

January 23: compare and contrast the US right now and Germany in the 1930s.

[selenak]

Done!

Thank you!!!
