Absolutely! I loved Unpacking and I totally dig the way Tabitha provides a similar kind of object-based storytelling, while also blending in memoir. It's way up my alley.

Women in Horror A compilation of horror movies that have been directed or co-directed by women. Please let me know if I misses any. Thanks!

Hi! Since it's #WomenInHorrorMonth, I updated my list of horror movies directed by women. I'm sure there's still a bunch I missed, but the list has 385 movies, from 1913 to the present. So, plenty to choose from. letterboxd.com/andreablythe...

I haven't tried it yet. It's my first playthrough. I've been playing on Easy mode, but am thinking about upping the difficulty, because I'm rather comfortable with the controls at this point and am open to more of a challenge.

Oh, that's a bummer. Thanks for letting me know.

Finally watched Blue Eye Samurai. Phenomenal, and I can't wait for season two.

Also, currently playing Ghost of Tsushima in a perfect pairing moment. Good times.

I keep seeing clips from Arc Raiders. I never play multiplayer games, but I may have to jump in on this one.

Hah! I mean, yeah, true.

And I loved The Walking Dead (up until Glenn died), but those are two shows I would never connect.

Recommending “The Walking Dead” because I watched “Bridgerton” is just… the wildest of leaps.
