world’s leading transmasculine Sacramento Kings fan (he/they)
i saw benedetta alone at the opera plaza theater which felt overindulgent

seeing ELVIS (2022) with my buddy who was all-in. we kept turning to each other in the first hour and being like “this fucken rules”

F9 was the first movie i saw in theaters after lockdown and that audience was so fun
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

i’ve never worked for a coffee shop that wasn’t losing money and only one that wasn’t losing a LOT of money lol. maybe he just means starbucks idk. i thought this guy was supposed to be smart
It's so weird that we traded delis for coffee shops entirely because no one knew how much a fancy coffee cost and so they could just charge whatever for it.

i felt the tiniest little shake unexplainable by anything going on in the house or on the street, suspected an earthquake pretty far away and i was RIGHT

a thing about me is that i didn’t grow up christian but i was adjacent to a lot of christians who were also emo kids. which is how i get weird opinions like “forget and not slow down by relient k has no skips and is a top 5 breakup album”

i’ve been lucky to read a lot of books that have been eye opening in vastly different ways in the past few years but i didn’t know anyone could do what delany does in (everything, but especially) stars in my pocket like grains of sand
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

tell me about a book that changed you

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"
