Frankenstein . . . Beautiful, artistic, creepy. I never had to read the book in high school, but my son said that he felt it was “loosely based” on the novel. Changes were made that he didn’t necessarily hate. And Jacob Elordi was surprisingly good as the monster.

Just for the record . . . an “underage woman” is an oxymoron. If she is under 18, she is a MINOR. A GIRL. A CHILD.

Tom Pelphrey - good lord that guy knows how to play damaged. And make you root for him.

Who okay’d these pants for the Steelers uniform? Oof.

As much as I love all things, Jason Bateman, I really did not care for Black Rabbit. I think that has more to do with the fact that I do not care for Jude Law.

I am still thinking about this play days later. Sean Hayes was next level. Brought me to tears

If you find yourself in New Orleans, please make this one of your stops. We had the berry cheesecake stuffed and praline stuffed beignets. Delicious!

Proud to say that I took part in the No Kings protest in Chicago (if only for a short time). Tens of thousands of Chicagoans joined in this peaceful protest.
This is what democracy looks like!
This is what CHICAGO looks like!

Watched Anora over the weekend. Really liked the movie and I thought Mikey Madsen did a great job with that role, but I think Demi Moore was robbed of the Oscar

Tell me you hate your kids without telling me you hate your kids 😆

One of my favorite Chicago traditions . . .

Just watched “Devil in the Family: The Fall of Ruby Franke”.
She was a monster. I can’t believe how easily her husband was manipulated. Those poor kids 😢

Watched The Substance tonight. I thought it was great up until the last 15-20 minutes. Then again, I generally don’t like/appreciate horror movies. So maybe I am missing something. But, Demi Moore should 100% get that Oscar

Enjoying not being in Chicago right now . . .

This is why I call them the party of hate. Elez is an employee of a “government agency”. Instead of condemning his comments, JD Vance simply “disagrees” with him and wants to give him another chance. Even knowing that one of his posts was “normalize Indian hate”. He must be a really good hacker.

A stranger made my day by complementing my parallel parking. I’ve lived in the suburbs my entire life, so I rarely have to parallel park. He even began by asking if my car had one of those automatic park assists. He was an older gentleman, so I will give him some grace on it being kind of sexist.

Watched A Different Man on my flight because Sebastian Stan just won the Golden Globe and I had not heard of the movie so I was intrigued. I get why he won, but I thought the overall movie was just okay.

Golden Globes: Nikki Glaser, who I’m not a big fan of, wasn’t terrible. But whoever wrote the banter for all of the people presenting? Oof. I was uncomfortable watching it. I can’t imagine what it must’ve been like for them to read that prompter

Is this his solution to his recent statements about immigrants getting tech jobs because Americans aren’t smart enough? So instead of changing the education system, let’s blame the women for giving birth wrong

Women have been giving birth naturally since the dawn of time, but let’s start cutting them open because Elon is playing fake doctor.

Just binged Shrinking S2 in two nights. Predictable ending to the season, but the writing and acting more than make up for that.

Started watching Somebody Somewhere. I can’t believe how giddy I get when I recognize a location they shot at in Lockport. Like, “I know that place!”

Wicked Little Letters is worth the watch. Great cast. I adore Olivia Colman. Predictable, but also funnier than I expected.

I love Adam Scott #benandleslieforever and his character on Loot is wonderfully douch-y (sp?). He plays these types of tools sooooooo well.
