today's fit + haul
It's me! A smiling white woman wearing a black shirt that says "directed by Buster Keaton". Witchfinder General 4K, Suspiria (2018), EO (2022), Super Mario Bros (1993). The Mario one is a huge purple brick of a box set. I won a $50 voucher for Dead End DVD so the first three cost me $10.
