The Amish aren't playing around

I'll tell myself that I'm over you / Because I'm the king of wishful thinking
Bonus: Carly Rae Jepsen's cover.
Not a bad cover, but it could have been more upbeat. I'm guessing she never bothered to record it for an album.
Nerd Trash Icon of the Month: Velma Dinkley
Don't call it a comeback because I in all honesty don't know if this is will be a regular thing again.
The choice of Velma Dinkley is entirely inspired by Tim Knight's photo dump over on HeroPress, so you know, blame him. Velma has always been my favorite Scooby Doo character and it should be pretty obvious why: She's a nerd. Just look at her.
Mary Jane shoes, the skirt, the knee high socks, and of course, that ever present turtle neck. Throw in the glasses and even back then Velma probably would have been a wallflower. And yet, she was cool and smart. She made being smart cool.
Then there's the cosplay!
😍

A blogging roundup
A round up of posts on my other blogs from the month of June...
Nerd Trash:
RIP Adam West
Michael B. Jordan is serving looks in Black Panther
Henry Cavill mustache you a question
That 70s aesthetic
SCREW
The story behind Farrah Fawcett's famous poster is interesting
So the Han Solo movie is chugging along into disaster territory
Anyways, here's a photo of WWE's Carmella riding a bus with her newly won (again) Money in the Bank briefcase
And now, a moment of culture: The Tyger by William Blake
Rayguns and Space Suits:
I can't believe I have to wait a year for John Scalzi's next book, Head On
Just a good ol' country doctor
Update on my reading progress
I wouldn't reserve your tickets for the Han Solo movie just yet...
Adventures in Books:
Currently reading: Pacific Vortex! by Clive Cussler
Finished: Pacific Vortex
Killing Floor by Lee Child (Jack Reacher #1) or I think I figured out why the movies aren't as successful as the books
The Mediterranean Caper by Clive Cussler (spoilers)
I'm not exactly setting the world on fire with my content, but it is what it is.
