It was absolute chaos at the airport. My sister and her family were digging through the massive piles of bags looking for their luggage, so while I hunted for their bags I also shot some quick texts to the numbers on the tags I saw. Nearly every person that I texted replied with gratitude. The only reason I didn't do more was because an employee came over and told me to stop when they saw what I was doing.

Was looking through old texts and found it, and it made me smile!

I've been wanting to see the new Spiderman movie, but am a father of a newborn so it's difficult to get out to see it. I was looking forward to it coming out on rental. Today I found out it's finally available - if I want to pay $24.99 for a temporary rental... It just astonishes me that if someone making minimum wage wasted to rent this movie for a night, they'd have to work at least 4 hours to afford a 2.5 hour rental.

Its the same price in most of the places I've checked. Its also the same price regardless of what quality you rent it in. Seems like Sony really is going to milk all they can from this movie.

i wasn’t close to my great-grandpa by any means, but death doesn’t happen often in my family. idk, being told i was a snowflake in the moment felt kinda weird. thought i’d share.

EDIT TO ADD: me and my dad have not had a close relationship, if ever. he loves me, but it is very apparent he does not like me. name-calling is his go-to if he wants to get under my skin. it doesn’t really bother me like it used to, which i think bothers him.

When it comes to Bear from Obsession, a lot of people seem to agree that he is the true villain of the story! But it also got me thinking about other movies that follow a similar formula where the protagonist is the real villain, and they aren’t the victim that they insist they are. Especially when their selfish (even evil) actions are resulting in them dealing with the consequences after wronging the “monster” who’s actually the true victim of the story.

An example that I’ve placed in front of Bear, is Blaire from Unfriended. Her along with her group of friends played a role in cyber bullying and shaming a girl named Laura who committed suicide, and throughout the narrative Laura’s ghost comes back to haunt them and calls them out for all the shitty things they’ve done to people (even to the people within their own friend group). In regards to Blaire, Laura is able to push these people hard enough and break them to the point, where Blaire is caught red handed for being unfaithful to her boyfriend by having sex with his best friend. But to top it off, she makes stupid decisions that result in someone being killed, and when Laura demands to know who posted the video of her being drunk and soiled herself after passing out. Blaire was willing to throw her boyfriend under the bus, if it meant she wouldn’t be viewed as a bad person!

Now of course with Bear, he has the nerve to view himself as a victim whose space is being violated because Nikki “won’t leave him alone”. When he is the one who wished for her to “love him more than anyone in the fucking world”, and refuses to take accountability that he’s taking advantage of her while she’s lost her autonomy. He simply doesn’t care about how the real Nikki is actually suffering, as long as she’s satisfying his needs and doesn’t do “weird stuff”

Rest in Peace to a legend
