I can’t recommend it enough tbh. I went in there to return a few I had rented last week and got to spend 10 minutes lost in the shelves, just searching through films. There is such a great feeling of comfort I get by being surrounded by so many physical reproductions of the medium I love so mucchhh. It’s like my version of a museum.

Shaker square cinemas aka the old colony theater in shaker heights, oh

I have another indie theater that I prefer because it’s cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. It’s not really anything special visually but it’s a beautiful institution and it’s so fun to be there ❤️ But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loew’s Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! It’s pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but it’s a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

Nerd out on a secret HOBBY

for example - I find music theory very soothing - it’s only a hobby - i don’t intend on sharing my results with anyone - it’s like a puzzle for me - it is math - it is so fun to practice the shapes of the triads into my fingers - i love all the different ways these sounds can go together - i never lead with this as a conversation bc it’s only mine - i skip parties to study it - i stop scrolling bc i’m like - can i move my fingers faster in this pentatonic scale? - it’s literally so fun to have a secret hobby - nobody has to know

body neutrality

body is a vessel who carries me through life. i’m grateful for the body i live inside and she needs me to be responsible for her. body positivity is difficult if ur looks oppose the standard of beauty in your region. and i've observed a tendency to ricochet into body negativity from there. Literally no - that is full trash - shame, hatred towards yourself is painful and inconvenient and lame? so in body neutrality - thoughts become ‘what do i wear tonight to feel good? does this meal need to ground me or energize me?’ and suddenly life is more sensual because one is more embodied in every moment. there isn’t that outside - looking in at yourself to monitor your perfection or lacktheroef - vibe which keeps us out of our intuitions and impulses. suddenly you are liberated and …it’s scary at first bc u have thrown away the point of comparison which you’ve measured life against? if that makes sense? idk

use astrology the way you would use a calculator

the sky is a mirror people aren’t a way because of a planet, things aren’t happening because of planets astrology is a tool - planets are a mirror to what is happening on earth - in the same way one uses a mirror to pick spinach out of their teeth there are many branches of astrology in the same way there are many kinds of engineering it is not scientifically proven bc empowering ppl with a free tool (developed and utilized by cultures globally for 1000s of years lolz) would result in a huge economic loss for whoever funds the science tests. literally Duh if u vibe go further and if you do not vibe, stop being so angsty about it
