Hi friends, I'm going to have an abundance of free time on my hands while recovering from some mental health shenanigans (sobriety kick, hooray) and want a way of keeping track of some of the media I'm consuming. This is going to be a lot of me just keeping track of what I'm doing with some minor discussion. Recommendations are always welcome. This is mostly for my own tracking purposes and to remind myself what I can do with my free time, as well as maybe find some new ways.
Italics is what is currently on rotation.

My first comment is that Death and Other Details is a spectacular show. It's a great murder mystery that's got the fun of Phoenix Wright cases. It's on Disney+ in Canada and I'm not sure what it's on in the states.
My second comment is that I'm like 15 minutes into Fata Morgana but I'll try to do a light playthrough of it here as I go since it's so highly regarded. Also the kid's names being Mell and Nellie bothers me because I keep wanting to inexplicably say Mellie and Nell. Gah.
I could use some good movie recommendations since my list is short and uninspired.
we're all buds
