re: Life Lessons

Thank god it's Sunday, because I got NO sleep last night. Replenished my popcorn reserves, though, and Materialists was pretty good, so hopefully the night out will be enough to carry my spirits through the rest of the week on buttery wings.

Thinking about the scrapped Amblimation CATS movie in the wake of 117 pages of character sketches from it surfacing online. We could have had it all.

AEW's been on a kick of throwing amazing old pay-per-view matches up on YouTube for everybody to see of late, so if you've got an hour to kill and want to watch two very formative bouts for me personally, might I recommend Kenny Omega & Hangman Page vs. The Young Bucks from Revolution 2020, which cemented my obsession with the Elite and their ridiculously dramatic bullshit which I could scream about for days, and Kenny Omega vs. Will Ospreay from Forbidden Door 2023, the single best match that I've gotten to see in person so far and possibly ever. They're good graps!

re: Where to Live

Quiet Saturday. Very rainy, which is nice when I'm stuck indoors at work anyway. Materialists tonight. The trailers make it look like total dogshit, but the reviews are very good and I really liked Past Lives so I'm insanely curious about it! I was able to convince my mom because at the end of the day, all moms love Pedro Pascal. Halfway through the week! Less than a hundred days to All Out! Five hours to POPCORN!!!!

Lee and Kirby were not being subtle, and right now I'm not in a mood to be subtle either. If you're anti-LGBTQIA+ right now, you damn well know whose side you're on and I'm not interested in sugarcoating that... -- Al Ewing

[488] where my poor restless heart's gotta run

Settling into the 'brain-death' portion of the work week. Need to snap myself out of it. Not sure if I will. Not sure if I'll be going to the movies tomorrow, either, since I'll want to see Materialists, my mom will want to see How to Train Your Dragon But It's Brown Now, and neither of us want to see the other's choice even remotely. Hopefully I can convince her to meet me in the middle and just go see the OG HTTYD, which is also playing, and in an improbably late enough slot for me to go after work. We'll see! It's Friday the 13th, why are there no horror movies out this weekend???
