Going to the library fucking rules. You can walk in and pick your favorite things and then walk right out without paying anything. It's unbelievable and 100% the kind of thing that won't exist in the future unless you recognize the goodness now before it's too late
Hey, as a librarian I need to tell you:

Our funding depends on usage.

So go ahead and check out that book even if you don't think you'll finish it. No one will know. Check out that DVD even though you might not like it. Get ambitious in your quest for knowledge.

Some silly rewatches, a gut punching documentary, and a movie that just killed me with cringe laughter! (Go see #friendship!)

My #LastFourWatched for #LetterboxdFriday.

Still skipping the star ratings for sanity. These movies are all doing some heavy lifting on my spirits.

Going to remove a little stress in my life and go back to just using the heart. I am going to give up on the stars unless it is 5 star favorite. #filmsky #letterboxd

This is very easy to say when you aren't the one who has to clean the theaters.
Movie theaters should embrace the ‘Minecraft’ chicken jockey mayhem — a rare, naturally occurring phenomenon bringing young people into theaters.

If you want to avoid giving Variety any more traffic after that Zegler hit piece this quote from Miyazaki says it all.
”Miyazaki said, 'I am utterly disgusted. If you really want to make creepy stuff you can go ahead and do it. I would never wish to incorporate this technology into my work at all.' He also said, 'I strongly feel that this is an insult to life itself.'"

The Google AI results at the top of searches are so pointless. We have a resource (the internet!) that knows everything, and instead of going to the source, it's like you asked your stupid cousin who is trying to recall the information from a podcast he heard last week.

My 2025 hobby is helping my pals de-centre tech from their lives.

Acquire CDs, records, DVDs, paper books, reference books, magazines, dictionaries, etc. Go to the library!

Going analog is a small way to stop relying on tech bro monsters & helps preserve knowledge they're literally deleting.
