going to see challengers on my own today! and i'm very excited. i'm someone who actually doesn't mind going to the cinema alone. i've done it so many times over the years, and totally do not get people who say it's sad. if i lived somewhere where i could go to late night screenings on my own, i would do it all the time.
sometimes i end up making a friend, sometimes i just get to sit and get sucked in and then i get to leave and choose my favorite place to eat. it's a nice way to spend a day on your own, and i think more people (especially people in their 20s) should take themselves on little dates.

May not sound particularly exciting, but there is something about picking a film you want to see, going by yourself, and then getting to walk home by yourself just mulling it over in your head. My favourite solo date activity!

i get why people only think of movies as a social event, but seeing a movie in a theater alone is the most freeing and therapeutic thing that i do in my day to day life.
gone are the moments of trying to pick something that you think a group of people would like. gone is the anxiety of always thinking about what your friend is thinking of the movie as it’s going on. it’s just you and the movie. i love it

the experience of taking yourself on a solo date to the movies is the ultimate (relatively healthy) escape - you almost begin to exist in your own world. the drive home in silence as you deconstruct your own feelings, and not to mention not having to share the popcorn⭐️

if i had a comfort sitcom, this would be it :,) sadly it only has two short seasons, so i've seen every episode at least 10 times. (if you're going to watch it, make sure to look up the right episode order because it aired out of order.)
when i'm at a loss for what i want to watch, i put it on. somehow despite having seen it a bajillion times, the gags still land. there's also something so inherently 2000s about it with its slightly outdated jokes and energy that i find charming. it's the same way i feel about 2 broke girls. it's just fun hjinks with people who are kind of messed up!!!

to me figs smell like summer. i love fig scents, especially if they smell a bit more green than fruity. my favorite perfume smells a bit like the green-ness(?) but also fresh, clean dirt after the rain.
if not fig, i am very much a sandalwood person or blackcurrant one. i like smelling nice but not necessarily floral. :)

is this the best fake album ever made for a movie? it is to me. i listen to this album all the time. it's peak 2000s rock. 3 small words is my favorite. kay henley's voice is so good and even the two dujour songs rip. actually this is just a good ass movie that was unjustly hated on. parker posey and alan cumming chew up every scene they're in. i love it and more people should revisit it for a fun time.
the vinyl will always be my white whale since it was only a super limited run.
