IDK right now all I've got since I'm at my parents' house is "my dad's opinions about random movies" which would include that My Dinner with Andre is the worst movie of all time, he didn't understand Everything Everywhere All at Once, he can't remember what happened in The Old Guard and as such doesn't care that the sequel might actually released, and apparently that Chariots of Fire was too slow (and my mother for some reason thought it was a movie about white supremacy????). But I have a feeling I am about to get yelled at to go on a family walk so no post from me.

I'll do a post when I get back to my house LOL - but make sure you request an outage credit if you don't have internet, it's been a month now! We got an entire month's credit from Optimum without even asking when it was down 6 days.
