Rewatched this recently and it’s still an absolute belter of a budget creature feature!

I find it interesting that because I let someone know that I was unhappy about their behaviour towards me (during an incredibly hard time), that suddenly I'm deluded and the problem. The fact I'm happy to take accountability for my actions, but they are not (we were both at fault), boggles my mind.

Look, I really enjoy both of the Tomb Raider films with Jolie. Sometimes, you just need some adventure fluff with beautiful people. It also gets plus points for using an original NIN track (Deep).

This is one of my hopes for my own book and that others pursue their own projects because they believe in themselves. I’m still a little disappointed with how BB turned out (I really want to re-edit and expand on it)

Btw, I’m always happy to chat and give advice to anyone who wants to be an author.

Today was the first time I listened to my body when sensory overload started to bubble up. Despite registering it early, I’m still exhausted from today (I’m so glad weighted blankets are a thing). Anyway, I got to sit in a captain’s chair today. Good times!

Sometimes, I feel I'm the only one who likes RZ’s The Munsters (and I'm totally cool with that). It has become such a comfort film!

I am loath to do this, but I need your help. My 20+ year marriage has unexpectedly imploded. There's a kid involved. Aside from Lupus, Autism and a shitty 2009 Mazda, I have nothing. Things are fairly desperate right now, so if you can help out now in any way at all I'd be really grateful ❤️

Could be worse, you could have Cuban Pete (from The Mask) stuck in your head (like I frequently do).

I’m not entirely sure why taking yourself out for a dinner date is seen as an act of defiance (societally), with some people still seeing it as a lonely or isolating thing (when actually it's rather liberating).

The hardest thing is learning to be comfortable in your own company again.

Tonight’s bizarre double bill, because I’m working on essays for both. I also love each film for numerous reasons.

I’ve said it recently, but it’s genuinely great to be writing again.

I’m also available for commissions, if anyone wants to hire me. Action film theory is my speciality 🤘🏻

Sadly, I don’t yell about mine enough because more recently, I’m disappointed in how it turned out and I’d love to do a revised version. I don’t think my publisher would approve it though, since it hasn’t sold well enough to warrant a revised, expanded edition.

Great news, Dalia. It's always fun to get the views back from beta readers 🤘🏻

Right, i’m absolutely 💩 it 😄. I’ve decided to pull together a crowdfunder for the next book project. I've taken previous zine ideas and gone in a more interesting direction. May be something very cool!

Apart from a few people I'll be contacting, I’m keeping this close to my chest for a bit. LFG 🤘🏻

Whatever I’m taking at the moment has very much increased my ADHD traits (but once that’s calmed down my Autistic side goes into overdrive). It’s better than having consistent anxiety issues/meltdowns.

Another side effect - I’m planning way more writing projects and ventures. Yay, I guess? 😂😂
