there hasn’t been a day that’s gone by since Jack Schlossburg said this that I haven’t thought about it:

y’all. is she not just *too* fly?

I thought I was starting to feel slightly more resolved to the idea of D’Angelo moving on. Then Wynonna Judd covered “One Mo Gin” and I’m back at square one.

re-reading this, one of my favorite novels, in memoriam. 💔

an underrated performance in this film: bud cort.

there hasn't been a week since i saw sinners that i don't hear, "... with the twins? boy, if you don't get the f--k outta my face..." in my head.

the way i screamed into the void, “face charges for what?!” when i saw this banner notification.

i love dolen perkins-valdez novels so much. another banger, as far as i’m concerned.

yeah, you are, neagley.

happened to glance up while watching this not-very-good romcom and… clock this tank top, baltimoreans. how random…

my podcast app tells me heavyweights found a new home! i know that’s right, jonathan.

i’d been waiting for this one. it did not disappoint. i’ve loved jessie redmond fauset since i first read plum bun in college, so this was right up my alley. i will say it suffered from a device that keeps me away from historical fiction: the “name-dropping.” but i get that it was necessary here.

i’m glad this one is over. if you can accept the premise, you can accept the plot, i guess. but it’s a lot to ask. this felt long and soapy.
February 6, 2025 at 2:54 PM
still obsessed. 😍

and callin it now: he’s gonna clear the grammy nods next year (if there’s any more justice coming).

this probably shouldn’t be happening. i can’t see the ticket sales being worth the effort at this point. but i am obsessed with this look on her. it’s the first time i’ve liked the platinum blonde.

i don’t usually read mysteries so i don’t know if most of them are like this one but the main character’s decisions bothered me so much & the point being made about Black women being criminalized at higher rates than white women who’ve committed crimes fell flat within the context of this plot.

this was well-written but overlong. tedious plot. had it not been for sheila atim and arinze kene, who voiced the audiobook, i may not have followed through on it.

late, late, late to this party but just finished this, too. it’s as gorgeous as everything i’ve heard and read about it.
January 25, 2025 at 4:24 PM
i’m currently reading/listening to this and loving it so far.
January 23, 2025 at 7:15 PM
i think I’m gonna go see “love hurts” in a theatre to support ke huy quan, and i hope enough people have the same idea that it becomes a sleeper hit/surprise blockbuster/cult classic.

context aside for a second, rami malek’s speech is so formal. like, i know for certain that that is a direct quote.
