So there’s this guy on here—seems nice enough— but he posts a LOT—and nothing terribly interesting or entertaining and he’s seems ridiculously narcissistic. But I kept following him because I thought he followed me, but I just found that he no longer does and it made me so happy.

13 movies to get to know me: The Maltese Falcon The Third Man Mildred Pierce Howl’s Moving Castle Christmas in Connecticut The 39 Steps Pee Wee’s Big Adventure Rear Window The Thing From Another World Invasion of the Body Snatchers Curse of the Demon (Night of…) The Big Sleep Hudsucker Proxy

“Tell me how to delete something that doesn’t have anything to delete”—actual text message from my mom about something on her phone. Or not on her phone?

I was looking up some photos of Mary Astor and found some from her early days that are quite remarkable. This one especially appealed to my gothy side.

I was just reading a comment from 2007 that the 1941 version of “The Maltese Falcon” was “overrated” and I’m spitting nails. Particularly, this guy says, Mary Astor is miscast b/c in the novel Brigid is a “22 yo bombshell”. John Huston was an artist not out to make the most faithful adaptation ever!

Stan Against Evil! I’m still mad.

The great thing about scrolling my feed in the AM is seeing what interesting things all the insomniacs were talking about in the wee hours.

I made watermelon “tuna” poke bowls for dinner that were kind of awesome. Who knew?

Remember all the people who were suddenly experts on classified documents? Imagine those people as experts on the legality of disclosing alleged recovered UFOs. Ugh.

Say hi to Eric and Ripple!
