I like movie watching and bird watching 🎥 🦉 I spend my days writing code at Slack and my evenings making the pinball tournament app Match Play Events: @matchplay.events 📍 San Francisco, CA (via Denmark) 📸 Canon R6 Mark II, RF 100-500
I really liked both of these as well and feel like they’re underseen? Night Call sure because foreign films just are but Relay I expected more folks to talk up. Just solid fun movies more people should see!
Thank you!

I watched The Narrow Margin and someone ordered a glass of milk. Got me to the edge of my seat, but the drink was consumed off screen 😭

One-legged California towhee at the Fort Mason Community Garden. No idea how it lost a leg, but it was jumping around seemingly unbothered 🪶 #BirdOfTheDay
There is perhaps also a preference to introduce extra risk into every process?
It was streaming on Criterion for a hot minute a couple of years ago and I fell in love with it. I am impatiently waiting for someone to do a boutique blu-ray release. Please, just take my money 💸
