Going out and Interacting With Neighbours is a noble goal and probably something I should also try to do more of. I'll have to check my own library for book clubs. I share your opinions on Bring It On and the first/second seasons of The White Lotus btw (and also didn't bother watching season three)

The first season is such a masterpiece of slow build dread knowing everything is a domino! The second is just "oh did you like the miserable rich people? what if they fuck??"

Bring It On might be the movie I’ve seen most on my life just because of how often they used to play it on ABC Family.

That Rhinoceros production sounds amazing! What a cast. I remember reading that play in school when I was about 14 as an introduction to absurdism. Feels like it would be a good time to revisit it.

@ratlands It was amazing and such a privilege to see that cast! A very timely play. Daisy doesn't hold up at all as a character, unfortunately, but you could really tell that Tatiana was working hard with what she was given.

Biggest update is the music page. I finished cropping and labeling all 2203 photos I scanned at my mom's in July so I am so back.

@ratlands Last month I learned that my mom has safely stored the Jeep in the shed for the past twenty years so...maybe it will still donut?? I remember it not having a lot of power and struggling on our grass/unpaved road though.

Oh no I did the math and it's definitely been in there for 30. She looks pristine though!!

@oopsiedoodle I had to look up if he canonically wears pajama pants and he does not.

I hadn't heard of Swan Song but it sounds good (and I hope it gets pride of place on the shelves so you can admire the creepy demon face cover). The Ben Stiller dream made me laugh. I think I would be psychically crushed if anyone ever said that to me so it's a good thing I'm not Ben Stiller

I FINISHED SCANNING. I thought I was finished twice and kept finding more books.

I get most of my new music suggestions from friends and family, or from reading reviews for recent releases. I've made a few good discoveries just by buying random compilation CDs too. Hope your mum's doing okay now.

@ratlands I plan on going through your CD collection when I'm done with my spreadsheet, lol. She's chronically ill so I fear we're just on the slow descent now, but thank you for the well wishes.
I am mostly complaining about Rise Against's lack of political message lately but its my blog so we get the content that's in my brain! Things that I didn't know how to work in: I learned their guitarist was in GWAR for a bit and a guy broke his leg in the pit at my show. On a THURSDAY night. The Rise Against pit remains rowdy, but everyone stopped and got him out.
