In-between moments of righteous activism, we all have lives we attend to. What did you do last week, or what are your plans this week? Watching any good movies or shows? Go on any dates? Struggling with, or achieved, any major life goals? Survive any alien invasions?

Do you want to promote a new sub, or discuss topics that otherwise get removed? Do you want to introduce yourself, but are feeling too shy to make your own post?

Feel free to share here!

NOTE: our Rules are relaxed, but not gone entirely. Be excellent to each other!

Still following the Depp / Heard trial, which concluded with closing arguments on Friday. Fascinating to watch the opposing sides of who believes what / supports whom, which very closely mirrors the debate between GC and TRA. And similarly, the Depp supporters have paid much closer attention to facts and evidence and logic, just like the GC side does.

ETA: Except for the radfems who think women can do no wrong. They are firmly behind the Cluster B nightmare that is Amber Heard. It would be mind-boggling except that they also categorically hate men, so this is par for the course.

Anyone else watching Stranger Things?

I'm re-watching from the beginning.

So much time in-between seasons that I've forgotten what happened. I start a season premier, and have no idea what's going on.

So I'm restarting from S1.

It’s on my list, of course! Gotta get through Lincoln Lawyer and Who Killed Sara first (highly recommend those too, b.t.w.). Can’t wait! I just wish I had more time to just Netflix and chill, but when you’ve got/look after preteen kiddos, time for yourself is a rare thing. Sigh.

Y’all, go watch Top Gun Maverick‼️ OMG I don’t even remember the last time I was this entertained and exhilarated by a movie! The action/flying scenes are un-freaking-believably good (hardly any CGI)! The cast is really diverse and everyone is awesome too - no “token” minorities, the principal characters all have important and powerful roles, and there’s a woman fighter pilot, aiiieeeeeeee‼️😃👏🏼 She actually takes part in the super-dangerous mission too, instead of staying behind on the ship, or something like that.

It’s appropriate for children aged 10+, no explicit scenes, so parents and guardians can take the kiddos if they’re not too young. There’s some language, but these days nothing they won’t hear on school playgrounds.

I recommend seeing it on IMAX if possible. SO worth it! Honestly, chances are you’ll love it even if you don’t like action films.

And, ahem, lots of eye candy for both sexes.😉 Just like in the first film!
