I don't really watch movies. My attention span is more for TV. I like shows I can get a lot of information from quickly, and don't drag out the storyline forever, which is why I love Forensic Files. It's easy to follow, it's logical, and I learn something. It's also short and typically solves the case in 30 mins. I'm pretty satisfied after I've watched an episode. But let's be honest, I never watch just one. And when they investigate a significant case, I'll deep dive and go down a rabbit hole for hours. I also like watching shows about air disasters because they focus on learning from their mistakes and fixing their problems as preventative measures for the future. And when I have time, I watch short documentary films or weirdly specific documentaries about religion, cults, and underground sports.

🎬okay okay i have many recs depending on what u want to watch next.
thriller/short series: mindhunter on netflix. INSANEEEE, perfectly shot and well acted. real interviews and lines from those interviews were used in this show, and it’s just an utterly fascinating look into the FBI and the term “serial killer” in the 70s.
growing up/comedy: GIRLS. look, i know lena dunham is a controversial figure, but she managed to create something that perfect encapsulates what it’s like to be going through your 20’s. sad, hysterical, and real.
just insane: the rehearsal. if you haven’t yet acquainted yourself with the world of nathan fielder: please do so. it will change your life. cringe comedy on a whole other level, and this recent season of the rehearsal is possibly the best season of television i have ever seen.
light/mystery/drama: big little lies. a classic, layered with drama, scandals, and surprisingly good writing, cinematography, and plot twists.

☠️12 seasons of forensic anthropology goodness (this was like a comfort show for me in high school and i’m starting to get fan edits from the show now on tik tok and it’s pushing me to rewatch it)

♻️People know that I buy a lot of my stuff online, especially since almost everything I purchase is resale, second-hand, or vintage to use in my work. But I have a secret love for second-hand retail store displays. I have a giant Croc, Vans slip-on, Jansport backpack, and more. I get excited and inspired by them. I love that they're so massive, but they were probably made exactly like standard production pieces. It's also a childhood thing for me, and having them brings that part of my youth back to life.

🚰This water bottle is the best. I got it as a gift and will probably take it with me to my grave. And it sounds a bit boring, a water bottle, but trust me. It's 40 fluid ounces, and two refills make up your daily intake; I usually drink three and a half. It's so easy to drink out of it, and the spout component is so simple to clean. You can put it in the dishwasher and not worry. But honestly, when you drink from it, you feel quenched. Avex got bought out, but you're still able to find this model under the Coleman name.

🎵Ever since I "accidentally" downloaded one of their songs from a Torrent site when I was 14, I've been obsessed with this band. I was looking for the most popular hardcore songs of that year, and one of their songs ended up in my iTunes, and I liked it. You would think it was a phase, but it's not. It's just great music, very energetic, and a good beat. All their albums are currently on repeat at home and work. I planned to see them last March when they played in New York, but you know how that story goes.
