I’ve thought about this prompt and the fact is that there are none, because I have an extremely low tolerance for bad movies and will bail at the first glitch in attention span. We only get one wild and precious life lmao

Places you traveled in your reading - Iceland, Mexico, New England, Netherlands, France, UK, Germany, Austria, SF, LA, Japan, India (kinda, it’s complicated) China, Kenya, Nigeria

And an awful lot of places that do t exist on a globe, starting with Middle Earth and going from there

8) a book you would like to see turned into a movie - they already did several from this years list (Remains of the Day, LOTR, Les Mis, Power of the Dog if we count TV) so I’m going to go with The Bewitched, although I’m not fussy which Moreno Garcia gets picked up, it is TIME we had a MOVIE of hers

Waiting for Godot is a good one. I also forgot R&G are Dead and I’ll loose my theatre kid license for that

It can keep you full longer if a real meal isn’t an option right now, and trans men will report craving protein at the start of MHRT due to increased muscle formation. But in a cultural sense? Totally a Real Men Need Protein thing

It is, body builders will use it for increased muscle mass, combined with the Real Men Eat Meat Bloody From Their Kill carnivore diet thing, which I suspect to be linguistic in derivation (from the phrase red blooded man). There are legit reasons to make high protein choices…

Masturbation? Doing *things* with his [ranch]hands? Say what you will about the morality code, and you’re right, but it did encourage the seductive quality of language and loaded writing like that

I feel like there’s also a fine place for a garden hermit. Mandatory three hours a day with his hermit who would say things like “okay, now we’ll do it slower today. How do vaccines impact public health? And can you explain the difference between socialism and communism? No? You pissant ignoramus”

That’s awesome, I’m so happy for you! Congratulations!!!

And it would be helpful if she started passing things to your son to keep at your house for a bug out bag/ general safekeeping. Extra clothes, chargers, small sentimental stuff

Maybe you could reach out to a local LGBT or Trans support org? They might have lawyers they like and they know the area. It could save you time in picking a lawyer if things go critical
