From there, I can earnestly recommend or not recommend a movie to friends when it comes up in conversations. We've each had the room to mull it over. From there, it's easier to have a discussion and gain new appreciation, while it's less likely to trigger a silly and futile competition about taste

More earnestly, I love leaving a theater and having the time, space, and quiet to process what I just saw. Did I love it? If so, what did I love about it? If not, what bugged me? I can do this on the way home without someone hearing me say "I liked it" and responding "Actually, you're wrong"

Solo trips to the movie theater are a treat for many reasons, not the least of which: I don't find out who among the friends I love are the kinds of assholes who talk and text during the movie

I'm in my 40s, in generally good health, with mild-to-moderate anxiety. I can count on one hand the nights in the past decade I've slept all the way through

as a kid, I slept like a rock through thunderstorms. I miss it so much

If you're in the game industry and use LinkedIn, please do me a favor and share my post about Sentona Games screwing me out of money I'm owed. Thank you

while we can think of multiple things at once, perhaps more of your focus should be on the 80-something kids and staff killed while they were at a school

A lot of the stuff Cameron does is dope as hell. And the financial success is clear. But as triumphant Roman generals had a dude next to them whispering "memento mori", guys like Cameron need an anti-hype man to smack them in the backs of their peanut heads when they do or say stupid shit

Semi-recently, Cameron was discussing supposed criticisms of Avatar scripts he heard from studio executives, how the scripts don't meaningfully advance the plot or expand characterization. His response is, and I quote, "I want to see it."

That's the tantrum of a child who wants chocolate for dinner
