I came across this gem while looking for something to listen to while crocheting. Yes, I've taken up crochet. No, I'm not very good at it. At any rate, MEF is a YouTube channel run by Jeb (significant pause here) Ediah! Jeb summarizes movies for millennials, realists, slackers, and anyone who might not know who Vincent Price was. Or what a land line is. Damn, I feel old. Here's his interesting take on A Star Is Born (not the one with Lady Gaga), and be sure to like and subscribe.

Some movies are trashed because they're misunderstood . Most are just trash . Judy Garbage gets to the bottom of a very stinky pile of films for your viewing pleasure and your olfactory salvation with her movie reviewing YouTube channel, Dumpster Dive Film Reviews . My favorites include her review of the  Thief in the Night series  and her most recent review, Battlefield Earth . Give her channel a look if you're interested and don't forget to subscribe.

Emerian Rich, author of Dusk's Warriors Baby Steps for New Authors I’ve spoken to hundreds of authors over the years... new, old, mid-career, famous, struggling, you name it.

I didn't play her very well as I'm not much of roleplayer, but the character background was...interesting: Image found on Tumblr Lou Tai (or Tai Lou, if you are not Shou) is a twenty-one year old Human of half Shou descent through her mother, Lou Mei Mei (or Mei Mei Lou).

Mei Mei likes everyone to think she is all about the money (her motto is “Money Up Front”), but she is soft hearted when it comes to those who are down on their luck and in need of a good meal. Tai takes after her in that respect. Her father, Ander “Horny” Hornraven, is a Human traveling bard of even more disrepute.
