Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Rebel Ridge on Netflix is yet another movie that makes me sad that ita wasn’t around to see it.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Just finished Umbrella Academy. I agree that it's a fitting end but not entirely satisfying. I think I will consider it an AU ending.

Though honestly, I think I liked the versions of these characters from S1 better than any subsequent season.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hm, I would need to rewatch the whole thing to decide that. Which I kinda want to do anyway. But I loved season 2 the most, I think? Which may or may not mean I prefer those versions of the characters. Hmm.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

IF became available on Amazon Prime. I was impressed. Very affecting.

I started watching Heartstopper - so sweet, I clearly need to make time to binge it all

Heartstopper is delightful!

Our wings are not tired.

The past month, and most of the summer, I have spent an extraordinary amount of time on distraction. NYT and WaPo puzzles, and lots of streaming. We're talking probably 3 hours a day or more on puzzles with either music videos or streaming tv in the background. This and filling a big chunk of time listening or reading my current books.

The latest 10-episode stream was Nobody Wants This on Netflix with Kristen Bell and Adam Brody. Checked all my boxes for easy on the brain entertainment. With a second season to come at some point. Woot! Two thumbs up.

I binged it so fast! It's so fucking good. Kristen Bell and Adam Brody have INSANE chemistry. (My favorite comment I read about the show — on Tumblr, of course — was "I haven’t shipped straight white people this hard in a long time." And it's true — I hadn't!) Also, I'm 110% obsessed with Morgan's (Joann's sister) hair. It's PERFECT.

I've also read a lot of criticism of stereotypes, particularly among the Jewish women, and while I obviously don't have that POV since I'm not Jewish, it sure did seem to me that they were riding those stereotypes kind of hard. I hope S2 is better about that.

I can't start my work day until I do a chunk of the NYT puzzles (Wordle, Mini Crossword, Letter Boxed [my current favorite], and Spelling Bee).

Wait, I have a subscription to WaPo but I did not know they had puzzles...
