Saw Mission: Impossible - Final Reckoning tonight! It had some high highs and some low lows, but was entertaining on the big screen! The submarine and airplane sequences are bonkers.

I realize posting this here is preaching to the choir. But after the Grok White Genocide thing & Ye essentially launching an exclusive Neo Nazi single on the platform... I felt motivated to write about X and how bizarre it is that so many people (news outlets, celebrities, politicians) use it

Congrats to Kingston Animal Rescue on 15 years! Their annual fundraiser, The Forever Gala, is coming up on Saturday, June 14. Tickets are available through their website! I'll be there taking photos. 📸 www.kingstonist.com/news/the-for...

Pickup with the old dads tonight. 👴🏻🏀💪

Interesting mix of movies for this summer's Movies In The Square!

Maniacal.

Photos from drag bingo at Daft Brewing. 📸

Cool old photo from the Old Ontario Series Facebook group showing downtown Kingston in the 1960s. I should try to take the same photo as a comparison!

Took Parker to the Infinity Saga concert experience in Toronto yesterday and it was even better than I thought it would be! The Toronto Symphony Orchestra sounded incredible and it was a fun reminder how awesome the movies (and music) are, despite some negativity around some recent movies and shows.

Happy 18th birthday to our favourite boy! He is old now!

Your choices, your actions, that’s what makes you who you are. #Superman - Only In Theaters and Imax July 11.

Parking lot sunset.

Saw an early preview of Friendship at The Screening Room tonight and it was so dark and so funny! Definite Cable Guy vibes but with I Think You Should Leave insanity. 😂

These banners downtown look pretty good! 📸

ANDOR is without question to me the story of our time. It’s, sadly and urgently, the story of all time. But it’s the story of our time and if you’re not watching it because you think Star Wars is for kids/not for you then you’re missing something extremely vital and impactful.

Ontario shouldn't fund Catholic schools.

Me coaching Lauren's Impact basketball team to their third win in a row by reminding the refs we will be substituting players every five minutes.

Trying a new soft pastel film recipe on the x100vi from the comfort of a living room chair.

Finally catching up on Andor season 2 and got through the first block of three episodes last night. Man, this show is cooking.

Bought some art from Jack Bishop, a very cool artist from out east that I follow on Instagram. #SupportArtists www.instagram.com/j.bish?igsh=...

Lots of talk about AI in our school board. Here's a poem.

Me to my wife: Hey, want to watch a show with me? I think it's the smartest thing on TV! The show:

Sun Setting over a Prairie Landscape Robert Newton Hurley 1973

Happy Star Wars day! The Screening Room is showing Empire Strikes Back if anyone in #ygk wants a retro big screen experience! screeningroomkingston.com

BFFs.

Saw Thunderbolts last night and it was good! Not great, but totally average and enjoyable MCU film that Florence Pugh carries on her back.

One of Lauren's photos from driving home last night. 📸

George Lucas' reaction to the fully digital vs physical performance of Jar Jar in Phantom Menace. From season 2 episode 1 of the Light & Magic docuseries. 😂

Nice sunset tonight!

These NBA playoffs have been incredible. What a finish to the Pistons/Knicks game! If they go to 7 games I don't know if there will be anyone left standing.

Just give him all the Emmys now.

You and me both, famous actor Paul Rudd!
