The Lord of the Rings trilogy is the greatest movie trilogy ever made and is likely to retain that title for… well forever. The current and future states of capitalism will never allow for the circumstances that made the creation of this trilogy even possible in the first place.

Duskmourne felt way easier to draft a good deck in. With foundations I feel like I find my lane, and then the cards and colors I want are still evaporating. Maybe it’s just because everyone else is still unsure about what to take, but damn it’s been rough.

Went to the dentist for the first time in years (because hadn’t found a covid safe dentist). Turns out I’ve been overbrushing because I’ve been afraid if needing to go to the dentist and it’s caused some gum recession on a couple of teeth 🙃 would have just preferred to get cavities tbh. 😢

Imagine being a billionaire and having all the money and time in the world, able to afford michelin star in home chefs and doctors and nutritionists and personal trainers. And with all that, still looking like Elon Musk. Would never be me 🤣🤣🤣

This letterboxd review was one of the first things to make me properly laugh since the election. Because, is it even wrong? 🤣😂🤣

Should I make a short form series on my thoughts around how the right is way better positioned to win the modern information war as a function of the interplay between our hidden value functions and the underlying incentives of capitalism? Would need scripting first though, or it’d be incoherent 🙃
