  • It was fine. I’ve seen all the shows so I get the backstory and references.

    That being said, there are just too many Star Wars and movie cliches to be bearable:

    Oh wow she cut her hair dramatically, she’s such a rebel and such a badass. (Cheap and overused character moment)

    Staring pathetically at a spaceship flying away after a lightsaber duel (has happened four thousand times in Star Wars)

    “Get ready!”

    Lightsabers are harmless

    Fixing a bomb under a ticking time clock (false peril)

    Ancient artifact leads to the location of a place or character in the present (another cliche and cheap writing)

    Another star map mcguffin (overused cliche)






  • Oof, going way back here. The first time I fell in love? It was insane. I was 16 and so was she. It was crazy stupid love. So much passion, but it was ugly too. My favorite part was losing my virginity to someone I cared for deeply and visa versa, second favorite part was finally getting over her years after the breakup. It was an awful one, embarrassing and cringe inducing in a lot of ways, but it also made me a better person. Wouldnt give all that happiness and pain up in a million years, and this is 25 years later.











  • It’s 10:35 pm here in Chicago. Just had a lovely summer thunder shower. Cubs lost because they’re fucking losers. Had a nice bagel today. My cat is curled up in a ball next to me sucking on his tail (its just a thing he does)

    I went to the UK for the first time back in Dec 2021, it was amazing but Big Ben was half covered up. Stayed in Shoreditch, had a great bagel there too (you know the place). Couldn’t believe the graffiti was everywhere but I guess it’s a thing. I felt like Sherlock Holmes or Jack the Ripper the whole time (didn’t act like it though).

    I saw my first firefly yesterday and it was amazing.

    How are you? Hope you get some sleep.

    From,

    Chicagoan
