Flow 2024
When we got Okkie🥰 his foster said she was glad he’d be going somewhere he’d have a posse, and I’m so happy Flow had one, too. Lemur is my favorite, as Leigh’s house is full of old crap, like mine 😯! Also, “lemur” backwards is “Merlin”, and so it’s cute and fun fan service that Leigh lives in something like an apothocary before joining the crew, with potions and a magic mirror and stuff. Anyways, Flow is my favorite and…

I had a first date with a big crush 😻 at this show at the long-gone Evanston Theatre on Central, and two dudes just in front of us sat with a empty seat between them lest anyone get the wrong idea.

But not too sad because the tone here’s all wrong, right?, and I don’t know how else to get off this train, and I’m sorry, but your other brothers feel the same. Ok, gotta go, I’m dead…Your Brother

Crossing Delancey 1988
Pure S(c)hapiro propaganda, but, still, THAT’s a rom-com, wherein a simple pan of Amy Irving and Peter Riegert walking along either side of a chain link park fence facing one another until they reach the post marking its end and the pair and the camera STOP when the space opens up brought me nearly to tears. Has a quality romantic trichotomy and the colorful supporting characters intrinsic to the dreadful genre (and is, as ever, and here explicitly, aspirational), but…
