i think my inability to rate things on a 0-5 scale reeeaaallly holds me back from being more active on the app. for example, my experience/enjoyability of a movie could be at a 4, while still acknowledging that the actual, objective quality of the movie could is a 2 (or vice versa). a star rating doesn't have enough room to convey that, so i'm not always sure how to rate things in those scenarios. i also always notice myself feeling much more positively about a movie as i'm coming out of it than i end up feeling about it a couple weeks later, so i'm constantly having to change my ratings around. think i'm gonna try the method of simply reviewing with no rating and <3'ing movies if i liked them

On letterboxd. Like how do you rate the Virgin Suicides or Killer of the Flower Moon?! So heavy and devastating!
Fully sticking to just saying whether i like a movie or not going forward!

Rotten tomatoes is so ghetto. Sometimes 7%s are like 80%s. I use >3 stars as I definitely wouldn't hate this movie it's worked for me so far

In the original tweet that inspired this app it was about letterboxd for all things. I love PI but wished there was an option to put stars on my posts. 5 stars for eating grapes.

I love doing collages, cuz all you really need are magazine cutouts and glue. There's a very low barrier to entry, skill-wise AND supply-wise, unlike painting. Digital collages are fun too, but I try to have less screentime by doing the paper ones. If I want to re-use pieces instead of gluing them down permanently, sometimes I'll just take a picture of the current arrangement to immortalize it, and then start over on a new composition. That way, I don't have to constantly buy new magazines to get new cutouts. This is one of my favorite ones I've done so far:

This is the only thing that keeps me sane at work. It's so slow right now. If anyone is wondering why I've posted like 9 times today.

i always get stuck choosing which stuff to watch/read/get into next when i look at my huge former watchlists & TBR's. a lot of items are things i put on there years ago and never got around to, so usually by the time i check the list again, my tastes have totally changed. i realized it was hard to get myself excited or motivated about half the stuff i put on there anymore, but i felt indebted to knocking it out anyway just because it was on the list. i'd recommend letting your current feelings/impulses take the wheel, and trust that you'll come back around to any of the other options if they're right for you later on.
