I love my fam.
I love movies, music, books.
I love editing.
I make short films on the side.
I’m always listening to the 80s music station.
After all these years, I got Wordle in one (because it finally took my word):
Wordle 1,603 1/6

I'm super delayed but I finally got around to watching Season 2 of #Shrinking, and I have to say it was an absolutely brilliant and beautiful season. It was so great to see the character development for each. And Harrison Ford's speech in the last ep was stunning.

Ok I’ve now watched the Lilith Fair doc TWICE. I’m telling you, it’s a beautiful film so lovingly put together that captures that time period so well!

Lilith Fair doc is an absolutely beautiful walk down memory lane…

So happy that “The Studio” won Best Comedy because it was uproariously funny and it’s actually a comedy whereas “The Bear” which has one this category in the past and is most definitely NOT a comedy.

On my morning walk today, I jumped like five feet in the air when a branch fell down from a tree and missed me by *that much*.

My dad died 13 days before his 49th birthday in 1978.
I am now 14 days away from my 49th birthday this year.
Cant believe I’ve now reached this point.

Anyone else wish the original Anne of Green Gables movies were available on a streaming service?

Nearly 20 years, a friend of mine gave me “A Suitable Boy” by Vikram Seth. It’s a door stop of a book clocking at 1474 pages.
It might take a bit more to finish but am nearing the half way point of this thing.
Challenge finally accepted. Gonna see this thing to the end!

This show, 10 episodes, in its first season, renewed for a second season…is brilliant from its first frame.
Go watch - it’s amazing.
This show can save lives and shines a light on mental health like no other.

Went to see Naked Gun last night. Starts off strong but kinda tanks by the end of it. Had some good chuckles at the start and Liam Neeson commits to the role really well. There’s one bit that he says around Buffy that killed me. 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Now that I think about it, the dude in “Let’s Hear It For The Boy” sounds like an ass, no?

Still recuperating from the fun of #Osheaga2025, but I want to full on state that this festival is one of the nicest, well organized and super fun ones out there.

I’m resurrecting the “one second a day” project I did a few years back and going to start it at the beginning of our vacation and capture every day until my 50th birthday next year.

Just finished watching both parts of the new #BillyJoel doc “And So It Goes”.
Wow. I always thought he was good, but I had no idea the level of his genius or the scope of his life. The film really takes its time to break down his life and his music. I have a whole new appreciation for him.

I’ve been raving about this film for months but not on here yet, so here goes: #MariskaHargitay’s beautiful documentary #MyMomJayne is soul baring, funny, full of heart, surprising film that I hope finds its way all the way to the Oscar podium.
Mariska’s made a film that honors her Mom.

Still again about this Trivago ad….does anyone else think it’s like super obnoxious?
July 27, 2025 at 12:35 PM
Random thought: that Trivago guy in the ads - his teeth are way too white, right?

I have such sad and conflicted feelings about The Cosby Show now for all those reasons, but I often think about the parts of the show that were so memorable and magical. And #MalcolmJamalWarner was one of them. Everyone loved Theo Huxtable. His passing is so tragic. 💔
