100% human filter feeder in Portland OR who just wants LiveJournal back. I mostly yap about movies and my feelings.

If you find me boring/annoying, please just block me. Thx! 🙏

NEXT STEP: okay, so release 22H2 is out of date. Got it. How am I supposed to progress to a newer one if it’s not being offered? Are they dropping hardware mid-11? Am I missing some UI? Am I not licensed somehow? Do I need a manual installer?

How do people live like this?

After a complete re-reinstall that led me to the exact same brick wall, I gave up and did some other shit.

Turns out it was actually doing shit completely invisibly and resumed loading sidecar .MSIs about 10 minutes later.

Peace returns to the realm.

OK, China finally got me. Full recommendations for the Ninebot Max G3. Absurd acceleration, built like a tank, low maintenance, sane design, $999.

Two huge minuses: it's ~60lbs and the handlebars don't fold, eating 24" and keeping me out of some restaurants. Sigh.

Furthermore: I wouldn’t need to do this recovery drive except that a dead fucking new 2024 Lenovo laptop cannot properly engage recovery mode by any of the documented methods because:

BREAKFAST ON PLUTO (2005, DVD, #film)

Merrgh. An orphaned chaos goblin trans girl (Cillian Murphy) pingpongs Forrest Gump-style through The Troubles, eventually finding some peace in addition to Lots Of Violent Transphobia. Interminable, rather surface-level, and Ruth Negga keeps pulls focus hard.

WICKED: FOR GOOD (2025, theatrical, #film)

Starch, fillers, extenders, analogs, padding. It’s fine, it’s boring, it’s very occasionally great, and it’s going to print another billion dollars.

Top top top marks for costuming, makeup, styling, production design, and a killer tornado sequence.

did you like Slay The Spire but wish it had the aesthetics of an unrefined WOW expansion paired with far too much (satisfying) gameplay frippery? You’ll love the $8 Monster Train!

Did you love Monster Train? You’ll love the $25 Monster Train 2! Out for every platform and controls great on Switch.

we punched up tickets this Sunday and these were the showings for Wicked at *one* theater for *one* day, NOT counting IMAX, 3D, 4DX, etc. And they were all booked hard until 8pm.

The mega releases displace everything.

Neighbor swapped us some Senegalese ‘ndambe’ for our tortilla soup and this stuff is damn good.

RAWHEAD REX (1986, Shudder, #film)

Gem! A wry author traveling with his family on a research trip around rural Ireland stumbles upon an eldritch demon terrorizing (and pissing on) the populace.

Better scripting and performances than expected balance out the wonkiness.
