Seems like a good weekend to find one nice thing to do for others, and one nice thing to do for yourself. Rest up if you can. Mask up if you’re in a crowd. Watch some birds. Fix something with your hands. Look at something beautiful for a while.

Every moviegoer gets a toggle switch and if you flip it, the movie is suddenly about transgressive French poet Arthur Rimbeau.
