I also watched Ad Astra. It was toooooo looooonggggg. Not recommended.

Finished The Sixth Extinction. It was super interesting, depressing, but also at peace with itself and our collective assured doom. Recommended.

I watched The Lighthouse (2019) last night, and I gotta say – what the fuck was that? I loved it.

From now on whenever I hear people talking about “AR” I’m just going to assume they mean Antiques Roadshow

If you’re wondering what to do with that 1400 XLM in your keybase wallet: you can send it to bitpay and use it to buy gift cards from PlayStation, amazon, etc etc. It’s currently worth $85, so not bad for free.

strong feelings on the opening question of this survey

Quick preview of the weeks news:
- Bolton testifies, dems claim “smoking gun”
- Republicans demand “proof”, there is none
- Republicans vote for acquittal

watching ratatouille in honor of the chinese new year

The impeachment trial might be the thing that makes me stop paying attention to the news completely. The constant, XL-font, breathless coverage of what is an entirely foregone conclusion is really bumming me out.

happy to share that it's the time of year when i listen to nothing except broken social scene records for a few weeks
