Stay tuned!

Reading CUJO for the first time since I was a teenager and I don't know if I have it in me to finish it.
I'm 34, married and with an almost two year old son and the weight of everything that unfolds is a whole new level of horror to me now that goes beyond killer dog..
Damn you, King!

It's that time of year! Spotify Wrapped has dropped and every year I'm blown away by the stats.
In 2020, I had 358 listeners and 1.9k streams. This year, I'm lucky enough to have 18,000 listeners and 54,000 streams! WHAT!

I understand the argument of "don't go see your favourite band for £1000s, go see your next favourite band at a bar instead" but that new band isn't the soundtrack to your life. People want a sure thing and would rather pay big money to hear a song that takes them back to a special time.

Just watched the new Crow movie and I liked it. I think it got unfairly judged out the gate but that opera house scene was cool and if I saw this as a teenager I would be even more hyped on it.

Jesse Daniel knocked it out the park with this line and has been something that's been knocking around my head this whole year to know when something is at its end and just be glad it was fun while it lasted.

Me: Urgh why are they rebooting How to Train Your Dragon as a live action film? That's fairly new.
*Googles it came out 15 years ago*
Oh...fair enough

We've just moved house and one of the biggest and bulkiest things we've had to move is the DVD collection because I'll be damned if I have to rely on streaming
There are currently only 22 films streaming on Netflix made before 1980 and not a single one made before 1960, with the oldest film on the platform currently being PSYCHO. I know I’m a broken record but: buy physical media, support your local library, etc etc
