If I Had Legs I’d Kick You is probably my favorite movie of the year so far. It takes such deep understanding of the human condition to make a movie that is this unrelentingly dreadful and stressful and anxiety-inducing and infuriating. 10/10. Met and passed my hyped expectations. #filmsky

Just saw After the Hunt. I get why people are meh on this (it’s bloated, meandering, random annoying soundtrack, lots of thesaurus dialogue that’s trying to be intelligent for the sake of being intelligent, skin deep on a fair amount of its commentary) (1/2) #filmsky

Just finished reading I Who Have Never Known Men and I’m feeling a little crazy. What a disturbing but great read on survival vs. living and what makes a person a person. #booksky

Believe the hype with One Battle After Another. A fabulous movie in so many ways—music and sound, cinematography, humor, characters, themes, performances, wit. It crackles with something special. 10/10 #filmsky

These RaptureTok video are a nice real-time example of how algorithmically-enhanced short-form social media content is literally driving people insane :)

Just finished Bring the House Down by Charlotte Runcie. This one took me a while because I didn’t love it lol. It has some good moments and the main hook of the plot is solid, but unfortunately the protagonist was kind of boring and dragged the story down whenever it started to gain speed. #booksky

Wanted to see HIM for myself and yeah, I can understand why this movie is getting bad reviews. The first act is a good setup with interesting sound design and some clever moments but after that it devolves into… (1/2) #filmsky

Wrapped up the weekend by finishing The Rachel Incident by Caroline O’Donoghue, a funny and witty coming of age that made me feel like I was living in the year 2010. Also, reading always cures my Sunday scaries without fail. #booksky

The Conjuring: Last Rites was mehhhhh. Not terrible but pretty bland scares and so many constant drawn-out sequences of Lorraine having a psychic vision, like I get it you see demons. 5/10. #filmsky

Lurker is not a perfect movie (it didn’t know how to wrap together its third act) but I thought it was very very good. The obsessive, anxious energy of it all, its commentary on what makes a good friend and not just a butt kisser #filmsky (1/2)

Other people wearing a hat: frames face, adds texture to an outfit, the person looks more muscular
Me wearing a hat: a thumb, like he looks like a human thumb, my god, the shape of his forehead, what is that

Just finished reading Open Wide by Jessica Gross. Thought this was going to be a grounded literary dive into obsession and it ended up making me feel insane in a very impressive way. What a trippy read. #booksky

Just caught the Shin Godzilla 4K re-release, that was a great way to make a Monday night fun. A very politically-oriented approach to telling a Godzilla story. #filmsky

Weapons is my first 5 star, 10/10 movie for 2025. Scary, hilarious, great camerawork, amazing pacing, and an ending that goes there. There was a moment about 65% in where I thought the writing was gonna fall apart but it ended up tying together well. Cregger is such a talent! Go see it! #filmsky
