Strongly held personal belief: four and a half star reviews on Letterboxd are cowardice. Either a film is Great (4 stars) or Perfect (5 stars). To place a film in between is weakness.

I had a dream that we were in Katamari Damacy, which I have never played, and I was dealing with daily struggles & thinking like, “god… we better hurry, cuz shit’s about to start rolling all around”. It was exactly like this
Screenshot of a tweet that says “Tried to watch "Shin Godzilla" on the plane only to realize by the end of the movie that it actually a drama movie called "Tears for you". Words can't describe the feeling of watching an incredibly sad movie while constantly thinking: "Damn... This is depressing. Plus, they'll probably have to deal with Godzilla at some point too..."” followed by some very dramatic romance screenshots

I think it would be better for the country if the economic prognosticators straight up said, "We have no idea what the fuck this demented idiot is doing, and neither does he."

President Deals is doing great!
JPMorgan has thrown in the towel after attempting for months to forecast how and when the Iran war would end. “For the first time since the start of the Iran conflict, we don’t have a baseline view,” said Natasha Kaneva, head of global commodities strategy, in a Thursday note. “We simply don’t know how to model the endgame.” JPMorgan assumed at the start of the war that several economic redlines would force President Donald Trump into an agreement to open the Strait of Hormuz sometime in June, Kaneva said. Those redlines included oil above $100, gas near $5 per gallon and 10-year Treasury yields above 5%. “Six months later, many of those lines have been crossed, yet the exit strategy is less clear, not more,” Kaneva said.

Humaning.
A four-panel comic. In panel 1, a Northern Cardinal and American Goldfinch perch above a busy crowd in a city, looking down. The cardinal says "It's a nice day to go humaning." The goldfinch says "Just look at them. Majestic." In panel 2, a close-up of the two birds. The cardinal says "Nobody tells you that you'll reach a certain age and suddenly get into humaning. I hit 3 years old, and then bam."The birds are looking out over the crowd scene. In panel 3, the cardinal says "Their calls sound funny to us, but each one has a unique meaning." Below, people are saying various things: "I'm tired." "Where's my phone?" "I'd murder a burrito." In panel 4, the birds look down excitedly at a man walking by. The cardinal says "Wait, is that a guy who got dressed in the dark and put his shirt on inside out and backwards?" And the goldfinch exclaims, "Holy... that's a lifer!"

The Endgame is to maintain the copyright to Miracleman now that they can no longer publish work from the last writer due to him being a massive creep.

Wait, so Marvel is making an imitation Captain America character an imitation Miracleman (who is himself an iteration of a Captain Marvel imitation). I wonder what their endgame is, because I just don't see it. Can't see him catching lasting attention.
