Sinners might be the best movie in a decade and if Michael B Jordan doesn't win best actor for Smoke and best supporting for Stack then I'm giving up on film as an art form.

I don't normally post many pictures of myself but my stylist yesterday knocked it out of the park, as usual. ❤️

If you got any type of curls in DC I would literally die for Angie at Chic Belle.

The nearby shopping district has outdoor communal working space that even offers shelter for homeless people because community spaces are rad. More places should have these!

Trying to decide if readers would understand/enjoy a subtle Diogenes in a long-form essay about salad or if they'd be normal.

God no one's going to read this 🫠.

God I needed to hear this thank you 😭

I'm currently working on a long form essay on the history of salad and how we can categorize pasta with mayonnaise alongside three tomatoes and basil.

I swear it's interesting. I promise I'm fun at parties.

So hi friends. As of last week, I no longer work at Pew.

No idea what this is going to be, if you're just here for me sharing Pew facts, I get that. Hope you learned something valuable. ❤️

But hopefully you stick around. I'm pretty interesting I swear.

Wanted to take a second to thank y'all. Never had over 1000 followers anywhere before, it's cool that so many people on Bluesky are interested in weird numbers. <3

I'll post more weird numbers today, but since I tricked you all here now you have to meet my cats. Ben Solo and Leia Organa!

My girl is DRINKING POTIONS and CASTING SIGNS. I know you can't have a Witcher game without Witcher stuff but god damn did she take the Trial? And she SURVIVED??? Of course she would she's perfect but do we get to SEE THAT??? God I love Ciri so much.

The trailer has me so hype specifically because:
- I love how much the Witcher world doubles down on old European pagan imagery. Shows a care for Polish tradition I love to see.
- Ciri cases as Yen style spell like in the books! So a Witcher with chaos magic. That's incredible.
- and.... (1/2)

Witcher 3 is my favorite video game of all time. Bar none. I love it so much I bought a day 1 PS4 physical copy of Cyberpunk without really looking into the game because I wanted to avoid spoilers and I trust CDPR that much. I still do. And now we're PLAYING AS MY GIRL.

I may finally believe in Christmas miracles.

Finally Geoff provides!

I know y'all follow me for actual like, data and facts and important things but Witcher 4 was announced at the Game Awards and I'm taking 24 hours to officially not be normal about it on Bluesky.
