How I deal with movie recommendations now:
You have to watch this movie, it's so good!
"Cool, I've save it for later."
You have to watch this movie, it's so insane I thought I was going to lose my fucking mind!"
"I will watch this immediately."

I had a really weird dream where me, my fiance, and my friends were all eating at a table in a restaurant with Elon. I was trying to convince him to read Neuromancer to understand why people were afraid of what he was doing, and his reaction was to do the worst improv rapping I've ever seen.

Can't wait to see the version where Blofeld is just a misunderstood technocrat trying to bring order to the world, while Bond is depicted as an even bigger misogynist, drunkard, and overall bigger villain than the antagonist himself.
Dumb nerds: "Uh...Blofeld was right actually lmao!"

Biden was very deliberately positioning himself to be a modern Eisenhower giving a "military-industrial complex" speech, right down to assuming the identity of "guy very solemnly warning about the thing he probably should have been doing something to prevent this whole time"

Considering the "substantive discourse" happening right now, this was probably a bad time to be bed ridden with an ankle injury with only my phone and TV for company.
