Tried Hades.

Fun, but too much eye fatigue.

I wore out the needle on my turntable. A sign of success.

The week in film.

Shaun the Sheep: The Flight Before Christmas
1776
Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom
Lego Movie 2
Call Me Kate (Katherine Hepburn documentary)
Dirty Dancing
Pulp Fiction
Mad Max: Fury Road (rewatch)

Audiobook: Tess of the d’Urbevilles

Why is Gen Z turning to old media? Because there's always somebody who thinks that's cool.

There's nothing to see here.

Wrapped up playing Dordogne. It's an indie French game presented in a watercolor style. It's low key and low stakes.

The week in film.

Frankenstein (2025)
Paddington in Peru
Inglorious Bastards
WMGSO Fall Concert (livestream)
Persuasion (2022)

I was charmed by the Dakota Johnson "Persuasion" from 2022. This is because I'm a complete ignoramus of the book and I generally don't know what I'm talking about. Regency-esque is a thing that shouldn't really exist, and I love things that shouldn't exit.

Today in useless yard work, I pulled up the soaker hoses from the blueberry (wild grape vine) bed. Ugh.

Not insane, but abusive. Not crazy, but manipulative. Not demented, but cruel.

Last week in film:

Wizards (Bakshe)
The Shape of Water
The Only Girl in the Orchestra (short documentary)
The Road Warrior
Peter Pan
Annie (2014)

Annie (2014) was cinematic pain.

<b>The Road Warrior</b> paired with <b>Peter Pan</b> thematically works.

Misspelling is not a sign of stupidity. English hates everyone equally.
