For no reason I can at all fathom, I’ve started naming my sleeping positions. So far I have:
• Elfin
• Elfin with Chimney
• Four (see also Four Locked)
• Straight (which isn’t really)
And so on. They don’t make sense to me either, but there it is. 😄
“I don’t have a six-pack, I have a keg, which is objectively better.” 🤣
Mmm…breakfast cakes!! 🥰
Do you enjoy tense original revenge thrillers where everyone involved is an amateur who doesn’t know what they’re doing—which adds yet even more tension everywhere? Then may I recommend Blue Ruin, a film that is tight and focused and will hold you from start to last scene.
Do you enjoy high quality low quality monster movies that don’t have any room for a plot because of all the close calls and chomped victims? Then may I recommend Thrash, which has a surprising budget and some nice SFX, but brings nothing more to the surface than a smorgasbord of cheap thrills.
Do you enjoy crime thrillers (not heist) with moving parts and a well-acted ensemble that’s a bit poorly paced? Then may i recommend Crime 101, which is engaging but could’ve done with a bit of a tightening trim to get the minutes down and keep things sharp. Anyway, good acting carries it.
Good job, Pakistan. Damn tough job but you’re doing it.
Good morning from Seattle-ish! 😃☀️
Tonight, the all-new exciting mystery series, #BrindlewoodBay, premieres with episode 1 “Dad Overboard!” Join the Murder Mavens at 10pm Eastern / 7pm Pacific, right after the latest episode of M.AS.H.
It’s a new kind of TTRPG for us. Wish us luck! 😄
I’d love morning—but everyone else is evening! 😕
Additional wife and I can’t wait for it! 📽️
Do you enjoy comically over-the-top hyperviolent WWII period piece Finnish-vs-Nazis action films? Then may I recommend Sisu, the prequel to Sisu: Road to Revenge, which is kick-ass through and through, featuring ridiculous stunts, wild kills, a saddle bag full of raw gold, and a raggedy dog.
Do you enjoy comically over-the-top hyperviolent WWII period piece Finnish-vs-Soviet action films about revenge where the main character says nothing ever? Then may I recommend Sisu: Road to Revenge, which is kick-ass through and through, featuring ridiculous stunts, wild kills, and a raggedy dog.
TIL there’s such a thing as professional cornhole playing. 🧐
Update: Mr. Chase Cricket has joined me. 😊
Goodness, it’s a bit chilly today. Glad to be home and snuggled under blankets. 😊 Just need a certain cat to come join me… 🐱
More than any other feature #Blizzard could make for #WoW, I would appreciate roleplaying mechanisms the most. I’m not super sure what I would specifically want (though I do have some ideas) I feel this area has always been lacking. Put the RP in MMORPG, I say.
Mixed! It seems more geared toward experienced roleplayers since it’s the players who actually determine who the murderer is, not the Keeper. It’s very improvisational. I watched a YouTube of actual play and that cemented things. Will know more after an actual play session, I reckon.
Tonight, on an all-new #Dn— nope! No more D&D! We’re playing #Brindlewood Bay, the sinister murder murder mystery game!
Tonight was session zero, character creation. Next week, the pilot episode: “Dad Overboard,” starring Pearl, Maxine, Rose, Opal, Ruth, and Earnestine—the Murder Mavens!
Super dense fog this morning—zombie leper pirates are sure to be out and about. Don’t answer the door and keep pets inside! ☁️🧟♂️🦠⚓️
Do you enjoy masterworks of big budget Hollywood smart sci-fi thrillers? Then may I recommend Project Hail Mary which does everything well. It marries hard sci-fi with soft expertly, has funny moments that’re not too much, and I guarantee will make you weepy-eyed more than once. It’s a great watch.
Do you enjoy super good French Quebec crime drama movies? Then may I recommend Red Rooms, which is super good. The acting, writing, and directing all come together to elegantly hide the main character’s motivation. The not knowing makes it different kinds of movies at once. Well done.
Do you enjoy ponderously slow Olga Kurylenko movies? Then may I recommend Other, which spends the first 75% setting up the last 10%. I’m not even sure where the other parts went. It’s an easily guessed mystery, and a bit nonsense. Olga Kurylenko does spend an unnecessary amount in her underwear tho.
Do you enjoy cops vs demon in urban decay found footage movies? Then may I recommend Bodycam (2025) which is made of things you’ve seen before but starts hard and wastes no time. You’ll find rather standard fare that doesn’t have usual disappointments—which is good if that’s what you’re looking for.
I’d never even heard of it before I saw the movie poster. 😄
Do you enjoy movies that throw away a creepy premise? Then may I recommend The Mortuary Assistant which starts well and pretends it will get more interesting but instead kills that idea right quick and devolves into the scary movie equivalent of oatmeal. I mean, you could consume it…but why?
Do you enjoy simple human-vs-aliens action films? Then may I recommend War Machine (2026), whose mechanical monster is very teenager-drew-in-study-hall but nevertheless the movie has a good premise, good action, is appropriately tense, and a not-terrible main character. Good popcorn fare.
1.25-hour drive home from work tonight. Ergh. ☹️
Do you like ridiculously low energy prequels with dialogue more wooden than a forest? Then may I recommend Hope Valley 1874, which I was looking forward to but found it cringe to watch. No one on screen is excited to be there—their faces say they all regret their decision. Don’t blame ‘em.
I have a leftover mini cupcake and you do not!
