Maybe that's just me who loves 22 episodes a season where not every episode was moving the plot along. Filler episodes were some of my favorites.

I know Wednesday is going to be focused more on the ongoing story between Tyler/Hyde and Wednesday, but I feel like they rushed the reveal of the stalker and Avian a little. I watched the preview for pt 2, but I still don't know what's going to happen now except continue the Tyler storyline.

Overall, it was a good movie.

Mislead the viewer. I didn't really love the jumpscares, but that's a personal taste bc it worked in the movie. I wanted to knock points off for the spiders but decided against it bc now thinking about it, the spiders were clues to what's in the tunnel! It was good, but I still hated it.

I really liked this movie. You don't really get to see the monster, only small glimpses of it and not even all that much. I love that they did this especially with how unsettling they made the atmosphere. There are jumpscares that honestly feel like their only purpose is to

Hell House LLC 1-3 in order: 7/10, 9/10, 9/10
HHLLC1: I liked this one, but I found it to start slow.
HHLLC2: This one was a bit better. The creeps started earlier, which helped.
HHLLC3: On par with the second.
Overall, I enjoyed the series and will probably rewatch it at some point.

So, for this movie to get kind of close to that experience is saying a lot! For me anyway. Entertainment is subjective, and what I like you may not like, and that's okay. Different strokes for different folks!

Which says a lot, not a lot of movies can get me creeped out. Sure, I jump at jump scares when I'm not expecting them, but horror movies don't scare me or unsettle me.
I think the last movie that scared me was Lights Out in 2016, and I haven't been able to rewatch it since.

At the top, the tag line reads "Every story has an origin" directly beneath it, it says "Exclusively on Shudder" followed by the premiere date 10/30/23.

I thoroughly enjoyed this movie. I'm not that huge of a fan of the mockumentary style movies, but this one, coupled with the found footage style, really did it for me. I was entertained. I was unsettled and creeped out.

I mean in the overall scheme of everything it doesn't matter the order you read it in but in some of Vinny's scenes it does add a little bit of context. Regardless I loved Graves too and I'd recommend it! But im biased i love Katelyn's work.😜

My main issue with this capitalistic hellscape (besides it being a capitalistic hellscape) is that I don’t want to work I want to do crafts. I want to do art. I want to watch movies and shows. I want to read books. I want to bake. But no I have to be a participating member of society 😒

Katelyn knows how to write spice that's for sure! About V yeah I have thoughts too but it's mostly in the form of a crossover book between her book Graves and the GH trilogy. What I'm saying is I'm selfish and want more from these boys and gal! Lol

The ending definitely made up for the basic remake that the middle was. Didn't see it coming but it was a good plot twist. I feel like if that part was foreshadowed and incorporated in the middle it would've been a better sequel.

I'm going to be honest I watched this bc I couldn't sleep, and I don't have many thoughts other than it wasn't that bad. I really liked the twist at the end. Will say I watched it on AMC+ and had to look up what the Dr said at the end bc there was no card

I love my coach/nutrionist/personal trainer, but if she could not message me at 5 in the morning, that'd be great. I get that she's in another country, but damn I'd love to not feel bad for missing a message.

I also some how fucked up my crochet project. It was supposed to look like a star outfit thing for my nephew, but it's way too big, so I'm gonna make it into a pillow instead. Bc at least that could be saved.

And it wasn't golden brown.
I'm going to try one more time this weekend before just admitting defeat and using a box to make the cookies. :(

I've made cookies from scratch twice now and both times I fucked up.
1st, tasted like absolutely nothing and didn't look like the cookie I was aiming for not golden brown and very round and fat
2nd the dough wasn't dough but a paste made a half sheet "cookie" tastes better but not what I wanted

Movie poster for the Chinese drama mystery movie, The Revenge. A silhouette of a girl standing in a hallway with back-lit by a green light.

The Revenge was interesting. Nothing like the synopsis said it was going to be, but it's still a good movie, albeit a little confusing tbh. It may have been bc of the language barrier. I doubt the subtitles were true to the transition but entertaining to watch. 8.5/10

Hopefully I'll keep reading throughout 2025 🤞

She's an auto buy auto 5 star author to me. But this was a great book to end a great trilogy🖤

Now I'm back in school struggling to take notes beyond just writing definitions of the highlighted words.

I really wish I learned how to properly take notes. Every time I tried a teacher or a classmate would say I'm doing it wrong but wouldn't tell me how to correct it beyond the usual "only write down the important parts" how am I supposed to know what that is?! It *all* feels important!

You know now that I think about it. I think they tried to foreshadow the ending in the beginning, but they missed the mark bc it didn't really explain *why*. I do wish there were some aspects expanded. There were were some good tiny things that happened in 1&2 that were never addressed.

A skewed box in the top-right points to a second panel on the right, with a MIRI image of that area. A tiny box in the centre of that panel is blown up in a third panel below, with a zoomed-in, combined MIRI and NIRCam image of a yellow and orange blob.

thinking about the hexagon on saturn rn it’s so strange and beautiful

Watched The Descent loved it it was great imo 8.5/10
Watched The Descent 2 eh. The beginning picking up where the first left off great where it started to head great. The whole of the middle felt like the first one but with different people. The ending has me confused 7.5/10 it had its moments

Don’t like a book? Don’t read it. Pretty simple.
