Monday. You've got this.

Big snow storms are a huge boom for my local economy. People overspend on groceries. Plow truck drivers get a lot of business. Teenagers make some extra cash shoveling out neighbors driveways.

Two on a theme: Climbing tall buildings for the wow factor. Skyscraper Live on Netflix Safety Last! (1923) with Harold Lloyd

I hope you're all staying safe during this winter storm. Especially those in the south who are getting hit with this extreme weather.

This is a shot from earlier. I have about 50 birds coming by my feeders all day. Restocked at least 6 times. Raquel’s Bird Seed Restaurant remains open during the storm!

We're getting walloped with snow right now. I've been spending the day watching movies, cuddling with my dog, checking the local electrical outage map and feeding the birds.

Now watching: Gloria (2013) @kanopy.com dir. Sebastián Lelio (and yes I have watched the remake!)

Rollie likes to block my view of the television. 😭🤣

Secret Mall Apartment was just added to Netflix. Check out my review on Quelle Movies: "This film captures a unique time in Providence, RI history but more importantly contemplates the purpose of art and the importance of human connection." quellemovies.com/2025/12/secr...

Alex Pretti, the man killed by federal agents today in Minneapolis, appears to have been a registered nurse, an athlete, a son and a brother, with ties to Colorado and Wisconsin. Here is a photo he used for several accounts.

Started watching Quentin Dupieux films on MUBI and now I'm hooked! #LetterboxdFour #LastFourWatched #filmsky

Exploding head syndrome is back. Last night I was jolted awake by what sounded like both a dog barking and a bomb going off. 😭

Touki Bouki (1973) Written and directed by Djibril Diop Mambety - BOTD in 1945

I bought my groceries like I normally do because panic buying before a storm is ridiculous.

Sorry, Baby not getting even one Oscar nom is a damn shame.

Two on a theme: Vampires serve as a metaphor for greater social problems. Sinners (2025) dir. Ryan Coogler The Addiction (1995) dir. Abel Ferrara #filmsky #quellemovies

We have never needed a new Gregg Araki sex comedy more than we have needed it RIGHT NOW.

Another great Criterion Closet video. Atom Egoyan came with enthusiasm, a list and receipts! youtu.be/X0yY-bMTFq4?...

Two People Exchanging Saliva is worth a watch especially if you're in the mood for an erotic dystopian drama. I enjoyed how this short explores government control vs. individual autonomy and the brutality of capitalism. #Oscars #filmsky www.youtube.com/watch?v=RuOE...

I'm pleasantly surprised that the short Jane Austen's Period Drama made it to the final nomination list. Usually comedic shorts don't stand a chance but this one really taps into greater discussion of women's bodies and autonomy. #Oscars

No Other Choice was robbed. #Oscars

Heads up locals on Monday (1/26) Strictly Brohibited will be back at @brattletheatre.bsky.social hosting a screening of Eva Victor's remarkable tragi-comic debut feature SORRY, BABY! Join us at 6pm to celebrate one of the best releases of last year 🙌 brattlefilm.org/movies/sorry...

Good article here by Raquel about TCM's MLK Jr. Day programming this year, which looks like wall-to-wall excellence. I'm especially interested in James Baldwin’s documentary I Heard It Through the Grapevine (1982).

Happy birthday @selfstyledsiren.bsky.social! 🎉

I’m on a budget except for when it comes to spoiling my dog with toys and treats.

Living near a secret 🧊 office and a major 🧊 detention center gives me so much anxiety. Truly is a reign of terror.

I kinda just wanna...

Spent the entire day helping other people. I should feel fulfilled but I don't. Because I know I have no one to help me in return.

Glad I don't have Verizon.

I hope Abra Moore is doing well.

Watching a particularly good Criterion Closet video always revitalizes my love for cinema. I was particularly moved by Jafar Panahi choosing just one film, Bicycle Thieves, for his video. www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqH9...

It can be embarrassing having a dog with behavioral issues. Especially when your neighbors hide their dogs from you because they know yours will flip out.
