🎮 Played/Read/Watched

• The crane wife by CJ Hauser
• Ted Lasso series 3: was a fun watch as usual, and I enjoyed the ending 😊
• Grace and Frankie series 7: was a fun series, but I think I’m kinda done with this show.
• CODA: really enjoyed this one, I love Marlee Matlin, so was treat to see her as a lead.
• Jury Duty: I started watching this cause the premise was funny, but I kinda trailed off halfway.
• Atlanta series 3: this series had a bit more abstract / disconnected stories, but I really enjoyed them, as well as the main character stories, which were great as usual.
• Fire of love: this is a beautiful documentary! I knew nothing about them or much about vulcanology, so it was really interesting, and all the imagery is very striking.
• Boom for Real: The Late Teenage Years of Jean-Michel Basquiat: very interesting doc about how Basquiat started his career, and the people who surrounded him at the time.
• Me before you: this was a sad romcom of sorts, but both leads were great in it, it was a good watch.
• Finished God of War: well kinda, still need to kill the Valkyrie Queen and the Berserker King, but I got a little distracted by Zelda so I’ll do it later. This was great fun, the story was good, and there’s nothing more cathartic than cleaving monsters in half with a big fuck off axe 🤷‍♀️
• Suits: wanted some easy background TV, and this fit the bill. It was most fun at the start, and then it jumped the shark a couple of times.
• Nothing drains you like mixed emotions by Arthur C. Brooks
• Smiling to death: the hidden dangers of being ‘nice’ by Joanna Cheek
• How this woman creates God of War’s sound effects - WIRED
• The Royal Tenembaums: this is Jonathan’s fave and I hadn’t seen it, so we watched it together, it was a really fun watch 💛
• Make love not war: talking with the creator of the first software easter egg by “Critical Kate” Willaert
• Horizon Forbidden West: Burning shores: I freaking love horizon, so any excuse to play more is a treat, plus we got 🌈 GAY ALOY 🌈
