It’s been I think a week? I’m not sure I’ve lost count since I deleted social media. Unfortunately I have gotten into the habit of scrolling YouTube shorts out of desperation which is also a habit I didn’t necessarily want so now I’m left with the issue of needing to delete YouTube too… gosh it’s like a freaking parasite I mean YouTube shorts?!? Now if I want to watch my beloved Mia Maples I’ll have to tune in on the one tv we have in our house. We don’t have a tv in our bedrooms or living room we have a “den” that doubles as a library/tv den since we don’t watch tv literally ever and didn’t want it to be a focus point in our entertainment space. If you don’t know who Mia Maples is she’s one of the most wholesome creators doing everything from baking to sewing, to eating only at a 7 eleven in Japan for 24 hours, very versatile and feel good content!

@Tim i'm sure you already have seen this, but if you haven't this was a fun watch

What are some of the cool things you all are working on?

Check out my daughter’s new track. 🔥🔥🔥

Apparently I have a thing for media that tries to address urban inequity, homelessness and mental health because between this and Joe Wright's The Soloist (2009), I am far more favorable a viewer than most. I get that there are flaws, but they seem relatively trite to all the bold swings I think are pulled off here. Eric is awfully bleak, and even with an ending that satisfies all of its many plot threads, I found the final of its 6 episodes to be the most depressing. It's also at the end of the series that the symbolism supersedes the literal storytelling, but I didn't mind. There's probably something to be said about how some accuse Eric of being too short & filled with ideas while others claim it's too drawn out and repetitive. Some do it in the same breath. Maybe another episode or two might have curtailed some of its more coincidental turns while a leaner run might have forced out some of its themes to streamline its social conscience. I don't know. I think it gets a lot right, and I think there's enough meaning to be mined from all it presents. I'm bummed folks don't seem to give it a second glance.

I came across this study and created this video several months ago while writing a paper unrelated to politics, but I’m circling back around to reshare this concept with politics in mind because it is so incredibly relevant right now.

Caught this at the local underground theater on a Monday with a crowd of maybe two dozen. This movie demands to be seen with jovial company. I had a blast. I could criticize the occasional moment that tried my patience or made my eyes roll, but there was always an insane moment of hilarity in the next moment that made me forget.

Consistency is louder than confidence.
