All I want for Christmas is engagement! Your favorite Christmas movie sucks! Your favorite Christmas song is overrated! Here's why some random movie I like is not only a Christmas movie, but the only good one!
Merry Discourse to all!!

For my first Substack release, I yapped about how it’s kind of weird and mean that the villain of Singin’ in the Rain is a silent film star whose career doesn’t survive the transition to sound because of a thick accent.

When people think they’re allowed to loudly talk and sing at the movies because “tHeY pAiD fOr tHeIr tIcKeT”
It doesn’t seem like they find you at all 😂
My first New Year’s resolution of 2025 will be to spread a rumor that I’m a nepo baby to stir up some intrigue and controversy around my career.
The internet’s pretty dumb so I think this one photo of me and Luke Wilson will do the trick.
My most chaotic music take this year was that I didn't like The Tortured Poets Department at all EXCEPT for "So High School," which I loved but everyone else clowned on.
Make fun of the lyrics all you want, but that 2000s soft pop rock sound works so well for Taylor. Very Aly & AJ.
Annual awards show reminders in honor of Golden Globes noms: If you did not see all of the movies nominated in a given category, you don't get to accuse them of snubbing the movie you liked.
And no, you can't just be like "that's my opinion" because it's not an informed one.
I’m open to the possibility of a higher power, but I don’t think an all-powerful God should have an opp. That’s just me, though.
And yeah, there are influencers on other apps, but I feel like the clock app is just better at feeding into FOMO and parasocial relationships. The Gram fancies their reels a competitor, but they’re delusional. It’s like McDonald’s thinking their McCafe is competing with Starbucks.
As much as I enjoy a lot of the creators on the clock app and think the ban is bullshit, I hope one positive outcome is that some of y’all are forced to come up with your own style, interests and general sense of identity instead of needing influencers to sell it to you.
One of my controversial music takes is that "Thrift Shop" deserved to be one of the most cherished one hit wonders of our generation, that kind of novelty crowd pleaser that kills at every karaoke night, but Macklemore ruined it by having more hits.
Thank you Sara 😭 Guess that means it’s time to start posting on here.
