This is a good thread. For email, I'd add @fastmail.com (which I have used for years) and the upcoming @thunderbird.net email as alternatives to Protonmail, as I think they're going to be a lot more usable for most regular users.

Brown Sugar is literally a movie masterpiece. The dialog, framing, lighting, pacing, soundtrack.

Like such a perfect romance movie.

As much as I understand going to AI to flesh out your thoughts (guilty)

You can A) reflect solo, a pen and paper do not waste gallons of water, or B) trust a relationship can withstand the request to bend an ear, you are not a burden.

Bingley is such a boob in the movie. In the show, he seemed like a much more serious person.

Im so furious at this episode of Academy. I'm yelling at the screen about Kasidy and Sisko's child as part of the prophecy.

They brought Jake back and based the whole episode on solving the Sisko "mystery" and didnt even talk about the daughter which is super cannon.

Spotify (just left for Deezer) and I think SoundCloud were cute for the way well named lists are another way of using the platform.

letterboxd obs: there's a missed opportunity for hilarious, insightful and hyperspecific list titles to describe the movie elements like "happy endings" or "new chapter after trauma" or "movies to watch while youre ovulating / normcore"

Instead I see "random movies" and "movie poster" lists.
