Lost track of time and had to binge watch Sundance shorts yesterday before my viewing window expired. I wanted to get to all 48 but I only made it to 38.

I desperately want to binge watch Schitt's Creek just to spend a bit more time with Catherine O'Hara.

I'm glad this film is getting the attention it deserves!
“It’s a movie about what it means to love someone forever in a world that’s temporary. It’s about the unimaginable tragedy of every love story that must end with one partner predeceasing the other,” writes @mangiotto.bsky.social who reviews the 4K release of BIRTH.

It's wild to me that people can't see images in their head. I conjure images all of the time. Can even do so with my eyes open. Maladaptive daydreaming is one of my favorite pastimes. 😂
