People miss the point of the greatness of Linda Fiorentino’s performance in The Last Seduction. It is: “Oh, she’s evil and all.” But the suggestion she did quite like and care for Clay.
She never gave a shit about Mike.
But it was obvious her and Clay had some chemistry.
However, he still has to go.
She really wants that penthouse.

Asked and Answered: Nov. 15
Let's get to it: MANUEL CHACON from SALTILLO, MEXICO: For the Dec. 24 game to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the Immaculate Reception, is there any plan for the players to wear the 1970s jerseys on that day? ANSWER: The Steelers will wear their 1970s throwback jerseys for the game against the Raiders on Dec. 24, and on the front the jersey will be the Immaculate Reception 50th Anniversary patch. BOB ADAMS FROM BEDFORD, PA: In your opinion do you believe that L.C. Greenwood will ever be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame? ANSWER: "Ever" is a long time, and part of me doesn't want to admit that because it's almost as if admitting it would make it come true, but I don't have much hope that L.C. Greenwood will be elected to the Pro Football Hall of Fame.   - Download and listen to the Ask & Answered Podcast here:Apple Podcast| Spotify ERIC ASH FROM WELLSVILLE, NY: Matthew Wright or Nick Sciba? Who do you go with? And how much does the long-snapper, holder, kicker connection affect the results? ANSWER: The snap-hold-kick operation is integral to the outcome of any field goal attempt, and on Sunday it seemed to me that even if the first snap was a bit off target it shouldn't have had an adverse effect on the first of Matthew Wright's two misses in the game against the Saints. I don't believe Coach Mike Tomlin is going to pull the plug this quickly on Wright, especially after the conscious decision was made to sign him from the Kansas City practice squad, because part of that decision was the understanding of the NFL rule requiring a team to keep a player it signs off another team's practice squad on the 53-man roster for at least three games. What I expect is for Wright to spend A LOT of time this week working with Christian Kuntz and Pressley Harvin III on the snap-hold-kick process and that Wright will be doing the placekicking on Sunday against the Bengals at Acrisure Stadium. Let's wait and see what happens in that game. Tomlin doesn't have endless patience, but I know he has more patience than Steelers fans. LARRY HEMINGER FROM SAN DIEGO, CA: I'm heading into town to visit family and to see my second Steelers home game, on Nov. 20 against the Bengals. What things would you recommend I prioritize for my visit as must-see, in and around the stadium? ANSWER: There is only one must-see, in my opinion, and that is the Hall of Honor Museum that is located inside Acrisure Stadium and opened to the public on Saturday, Nov. 12. For information and to book a tour – walk-ins are not accepted – go to Steelers.com, and across the top NavBar you will see a link for "Hall of Honor Museum." Click on that link, and it will take you to a page where you will be able to click on a link to "Book A Tour." Click on that and follow the instructions. I suggest you do that rather promptly, because the Hall of Honor Museum quickly has become a very popular destination for Steelers fans, and slots for tours fill up very fast. Good luck. I'm confident you'll enjoy it. BRIAN FIORENTINO FROM VIRGINIA BEACH, VA: I see on the Steelers regular season schedule that the Week 18 game against the Browns is listed as TBD. How come the time and date aren't locked in yet and is this the case for all Week 18 matchups? ANSWER: The NFL did not announce the dates and times for any of the Week 18 games so as to be able to lock in the best matchups and slots for television based on playoff clinchings and potential clinchings. The date and time of the game vs. the Browns will be determined by the NFL, and the teams will have no say in that decision. BURTON HARRIS FROM GREENSBURG, PA: When the Steelers get in the red zone, why wouldn't they use Zach Gentry who is 6-foot-8 and can catch against a smaller defensive back? ANSWER: Because height isn't the defining characteristic in a receiver being adept at combat catches. Because George Pickens is the best combat-catch receiver on the Steelers roster. And because this is football, not basketball. KEN WAMSLEY FROM BIDWELL, OH: Do you think Ben Roethlisberger has the talent to be a head coach in the NFL? ANSWER: If Ben Roethlisberger had any interest in a coaching career, he would have had to show some interest in pursuing that at some point, because there are only so many NFL owners willing to hire a head coach off the ESPN set. Since Roethlisberger has not shown any interest in a career in the NFL as a coach, we'll never know whether he has the "talent." Because he's not interested. CHRIS HANN FROM SARASOTA, FL: I just attended the Hall of Honor Museum and also did a stadium tour while visiting Pittsburgh for the New Orleans game. I highly recommend it as a must-see for all Steelers fans. The Hall of Honor Museum is very well done. Just wanted to thank the organization for an amazing experience during our visit. ANSWER: I'm happy to hear you enjoyed your Museum visit, and just to reiterate your point, after visiting the Hall of Honor Museum for the first time, Mike Prisuta of the WDVE Morning Show and Steelers.com referred to it as "Disneyland for Steelers fans." CHARLES KIRSCHNER FROM MURRELLS INLET, SC: Understanding that the Steelers hired Chuck Noll, what other organizational changes took place in the late 1960s to catapult the franchise from a perennial loser to a multiple time Super Bowl champion? ANSWER: By the time the Steelers hired Chuck Noll in January 1969, Dan Rooney already had assumed what today might be referred to as a general manager's role for the Steelers, Bill Nunn had been hired, Art Rooney Jr. had been put in charge of the scouting department, and the franchise already had made an internal commitment to building its team through the draft. With all of those elements and people already in place, the addition of Noll was what made everything work to perfection.

Redemption of the librarian shusher...sort of: Steven, Connie, and the missing books
Tumblr media
Connie and Steven in the library in the cover of this comic, setting the stage for the comic
In the past, I criticized the unnamed librarian of the Buddy Buddwick Public Library, in the Steven Universe episode "Buddy's Book," specifically for shushing Steven and Connie, three times in the same episode! However, I also noted in April that there was a comic "where Steven learned the organizational power of librarians," with the librarian not shushing them, being helpful, and Connie even lamenting that "all the powers of bibliographical organization" failed her. So, I set out to read this comic, known as Issue #36 which came out over a year ago on January 22, 2020, over seven months before I started this blog, in July 2020. [1] Spoilers for those who haven't read this comic, as I'm gonna summarize what happens and then give my thoughts.
In this comic, written by Taylor Robin, illustrated by S.S. Mara, colored by Whitney Cogar, and lettered by Mike Fiorentino, focuses on libraries, as made clear from the comic's cover, part of which is shown above. The story begins by Connie and Steven traveling to the library again, with Steven saying he had so much fun, Connie wanting to find a new series by the author who wrote the Unfamiliar Familiar series. Steven wants to find Buddy's book again, and Connie gets excited, wanting to find out books that Buddy Buddwick wrote. The second they walk in, the librarian shushes them and they joke about it. Once in the stacks, Connie tells Steven that you find things in the library with the Dewey Decimal System which confuses him because he thinks Mayor Dewey (the mayor of Beach City) organizes the books with math, lol. Poor Steven. Connie then declares that, no, it is referring to Melvil Dewey, who invented it in 1876, allowing books to be organized by topic, which impresses Steven.
After this, they work to find books by using the library catalog, sitting at one of the library's computers, and are amazed at how much they found. They are both excited to find books, using the call numbers, but the books are missing! Of course, Steven and Connie get nervous, and realize they both have the same problem. They are jokingly shushed by the librarian, the same one in that episode, who seems to be having some fun with them, and helps them out:
Tumblr media
She makes the same laugh and shush on page 2.
The librarian says the books should all be there, with Steven telling her they are all gone. They then retreat to library chairs, with Connie lamenting that "all the powers of bibliographical organization" has failed her. Steven floats the idea that someone stole them, with Connie unsure about that, as you are allowed to take books from the library and thinks they were shelved incorrectly. They search high and low across the library, under the stacks, and they chase a worm into a room which is closed for repairs. It turns out this corrupted Gem has been taking all the books. Steven uses his rose shield to stop it from leaving, and Connie is able to poof it by throwing a book at it. They proceed to read books in the room, including Buddy Buddwick's journal, and silently read to together, learning more about him. The rest of the comic, they share parts of the books with each other, and Steven later says the Gem felt lonely, so it came there. So he sends it back to the Crystal Temple, where it can be with other Gems, with Pearl looking at it with interest. And... that's the end.
I honestly thought there would be more to this comic, but I'm still glad I read it. In terms of the Librarian Portrayal Test (LPT), as I'm calling it, this comic clearly fails. Yes, it has a character which is clearly a librarian, fulfilling the first part of the criteria, but the librarian is primarily defined as a librarian, and I'm not altogether convinced that they are integral to the plot. Perhaps they are important to the plot, but the story could have still happened if the librarian hadn't been there, but the fact they were there was a help.
This librarian only appears across three pages (2, 10, and 11), while the comic is 22 pages long. More accurately, the librarian appears in the equivalent of one page, which is 5% of the comic. That's terrible for a comic that is supposed to about an adventure in a library! Furthermore, she is middle-aged, White, female, and wears glasses, fulfilling many stereotypes I've talked about on this blog before. I also am convinced that the librarian has some sort of in-joke with Steven and Connie, with her laughs and shushes at the same time. I'm just guessing here. On the other hand, Connie just calls her "the librarian" rather than using a name, so perhaps she doesn't know her that well? Its hard to say. I did a quick search on AO3 to see if anyone had written fan fics about this librarian, and they have one about Steven meeting a cute librarian, and the latter flirting back with him, but there aren't any about the librarian in this comic and in the "Buddy's Book" episode, unfortunately. [2]
Tumblr media
Librarian stumped when Steven tells him about the missing books
There really isn't much else I can say about this librarian, unfortunately, except to say that she had a much better role in the comic than in the episode. I wish she had more of a role in the comic, however. Until next time, fellow readers!

Notes
[1] This comic appeared in Steven Universe: Cherished Memories, a paperback book that was released on January 5, 2021.
[2] Others, apart from fics like "Drifting Across Unsettled Seas: The Off Colors’ Gargantian Dilemma" and "The Universe Runs Through It: Cheering Gargantians, Snotty Peridots, Calm Etherians, and a Perplexed Kipo", have Pearl as a librarian and Peridot as a librarian.

Adventure Time: Marcy & Simon #3 - kaboom! Comics
By Olivia Olson, Slimm Fabert, SJ Miller & Mike Fiorentino
And of course the Adventure Time Crew makes it down to Abadeer for guidance and fixing the situation. And what does he do? He gets jealous of Simon and how Simon was actually a decent person and all the years Marcy and Simon got to spend together. 
So of course he screws up the ritual they perform to fix Simon and curse him instead.
Thanks Hunson.
