- nowhere to sit down

I've seen Joachim Trier's Sentimental Value twice now & really enjoyed it. Trier's sense of drama is really great, it made me appreciate The Worst Person in the World a lot more.

If you really need to waste some water for your ideas, you can also do “staring at the wall” in the shower.
Instead of using GenAI to generate ideas, may I instead suggest "Staring at a Wall." Your mind will wander and probably have more relevant, fleshed out ideas than anything an LLM can generate. Join the "Staring at a Wall" movement today.

Speaking of films, some I watched this year:
- Train Dreams (my film of the year)
- Sorry, Baby (close second)
- Sentimental Value
- One Battle After Another
- The Life of Chuck
- A Big Bold Beautiful Journey (I will die on this hill that this was a good film)
Prob. a bunch I'm forgetting.

Your intermittent #boardgames post for the... month I think it is now.
Ran Patrician for folks all new to the game. I love its simplicity with just enough bite for a simple game. Great for newcomers or for a chilled session.

I saw a response to this about finding a therapist & I will yet again use this as a gateway to commenting on the accessibility of mental health services. Not only that, but "good", "the right fit" & also the affordable cost of health professionals suited to the patient.
Those who are 35+, what advice do you have for people just entering their 30s?
