Rewatching Stranger Things and Steve being gal pal with Robin warms my cold heart...then El realizing Hopper is gone breaks it into a million.
Also, very few in small town, rural Midwest USA have good taste in movies at the Family Video. I speak from the horrific experience of working in one.

Ok BlueSky: what are your favorite history books in terms of sheer page-turning, narrative propulsion? Thinking along the line of Killers of the Flower Moon, etc. Nonfiction chronicles that read like novels or movies.

Terrific song from Jesse Wells.
"I put a kid in cuffs and zip-tied a woman to a van.
We can sneak around town,
hunting working folks down.
I hear they they get a great benefit plan."

Listening to mellow classic rock on Sirius XM The Bridge while reading 'Hang the Moon' by Jeannette Walls has put me into winter hiber-cozy mode.

I like to write, but would never say I'm good at it. And my ADHD brain can really immerse itself in some seriously tangential, metaphoric, and flowery prose. Yet I don't think my worst efforts have ever come off ... like this. Is there such a thing as bewilderment writing?
I should not do this to myself. I should look away. I should scroll by. I should log off.
And yet…

Someone on a true crime doc I'm watching just called Slayer a death metal band. I just don't see them as death metal, just heavy, possibly thrash, metal.

I don't care how close. It was a masterpiece of stunning visuals, stellar acting, and a heady elevation of romance over horror. I'm bummed I didn't see it in a theatre!

I've really been leaning into harnessing peace lately. This morning sipping coffee, nibbling a scone, journaling, and feeling the comforting weight and steady, light snoring rhythm of Willow Miss Kitty Fantastico on my lap was a moment of complete peace and contentment.
