I cannot overstate the mental health benefits of spending time with a person who just thinks you're neat.

Haven’t done a Letterboxd Friday in a while because my movie viewing has been way down. I was on vacation this week and watched a bunch, though.

I hit an unexpected milestone in my Letterboxd stats. It's been a year since I went a week without logging some kind of film. I only really thought of my film viewing as ramping up in December of 2024, but I guess I was being consistent prior to that.

I’ve replaced the blood in my heart with joy. I’ve never been happier. Also, separately, I’m dying.

It’s incredible what you can accomplish when you’re on a roll. It’s disheartening how difficult it is when you’re not.

The thing about the Mass Effect trilogy is, by the end, you are excited to play it again, partly because you’ve already forgotten what a slog the first game is.

Letterboxd Friday! It’s been an incredibly light week for movies, with literally nothing Mon-Wed.

Letterboxd Friday! I’ve been on vacation this week, but it hasn’t significantly bumped my film viewing.

Screw ADHD, we’re watching Barry Lyndon (or at least half of it).

Sometimes you make a joke and your partner laughs for a full minute, visibly shaking. It’s the best feeling in the world.

I went from not having to think very much about my spending to having to studiously budget in the last six months. And that’s with a raise thrown in.

Letterboxd Friday! Slow week, but I’m on vacation next week so maybe I’ll watch more.

I started working my way through a DVD of Paramount comedy shorts in pre-Code era. A lot of them fix a camera to a point and watch two people in medium shot go through the most stilted vaudeville routine you've ever seen.

@dropout.tv Hey when is Play Ot By Ear coming back? I yearn for it.

Letterboxd Friday! A very light week. I’ve mostly been working through the Bioshock games again

Letterboxd Friday! Rounding on 400 for the year.

Letterboxd Friday! I started working my way through a set of eight Edward Everett Horton silent shorts.

Replaying Borderlands 2 (one of my all-time favorite games) and I’m running into the same issue I run into every time — after Control Core Angel, I’m not as engaged. I have this issue with a lot of games, where they make it so big and I want a tighter narrative experience.

Letterboxd Friday! Cruised past my year goal of 365 films logged. I don’t think I’m setting a new goal, though. Everything from here on out is gravy.

Letterboxd Friday! I mostly took the week off except for my continued run through the Crime Does Not Pay series.

My ADHD brain is taking on a 133 minute film. Let’s do this.

Letterboxd Friday! I passed 350 this week, cruising for my goal of 365 for the year.
June 27, 2025 at 4:08 PM
Letterboxd Friday! A week away from 350, roughly.
