I honestly believe our most powerful position in a toxic time that feeds on cynicism, apathy,& despair is to genuinely care and act for a better world.

Cynicism is our enemy. We should check it, incl. on the left. It’s not intellectually superior. It’s the virus they’re trying to infect us with. NO

The correct way to enjoy Skeleton Crew. #Starwars

I think I've peaked.

As a longtime Warhammer player I can say with certainty that the painting of your Warhammer figures has always been a reflection of who YOU are: colors of your favorite sports teams, nationalities, and sexualities.

Tonight me and my, utterly enthralled, 8 year old daughter reached The Force Awakens in our Star Wars journey and then read the Riddles in the Dark chapter of The Hobbit.

Not sure how long I'm going to get away with such self-indulgent parenting but I'm going to enjoy it while i can, my precious.

@letterboxd.social check-in.

161 films so far this year, need to go some to break that 200 mark.
