Podcasts

Movies

• Long Day’s Journey Into Night, 2018 - ★★½. Lonely, heartbroken, aimless, beautiful, but very long and in no way interested in explaining itself. I dig this sort of thing but nobody else I know seems to, and I think they’re getting annoyed I keep clicking on stuff like this on Kanopy.
• WarGames, 1983 - ★★. I think I might not like the 80s.

TV Shows

Caught up on Letterkenny. I want to make a few videos about that one. Began watching Oresuki. Not sure about that one.

Video Games

Finished Fire Emblem: Three Houses. I’ll definitely have a blog post later on that one. Going to take January and maybe February off of video games. I really overdid it with Game Finishing Season.

Youtube

• The Impact of Final Fantasy 7: The Game that Changed Everything.
• Letterkenny: Roald Saying STERRT Compilation.
• The secret to desire in a long-term relationship | Esther Perel.

Good Tweets

• I’m basically never more a Karen than when I just grab a bag of grapes and then later I’m like, oh, seeds.
• The update is a few months old now but I love the subtle UI updates to Kobo. Bold headers and bigger buttons are https://t.co/3IP2D8S1Mb
• I’m all over the place with music, but I always tend to come back to The Soft Bulletin. It’s like, my home album. It re-centers me, and reminds me what I love about music. https://t.co/9QT3VX2dkl
• I want Fire Emblem Three Houses’ UI as an app. Tell me how much energy I have, what quests need to get done, my friend score with everyone I know and how best to level that shit up.
• The good Twitter https://t.co/xTspbLXrWe
• Choose, choose the form of the Destructor #unionstation #toronto https://t.co/0qZ4bBAPcH
