I'm very slowly working my way through John Waters' filmography and this is a fun one. My mum and uncle both liked it too :-)

A delightful (82-minute) screwball (with a super-weird title). The movie made me wonder: was Molly Ringwald the reincarnation of Ginger Rogers?! She’s great here. It even features a scene where she competes in a dance contest!

The sound of music (1965)

recently rediscovered that this is the perfect movie, and i say that without a hint of irony. i watched it twice last week and then read the screenplay front to back. my mom told me she caught it on hbo (that’s something parents still do, catch things on hbo) and i almost cried. strikes the perfect balance of genuine heart and complete nonsense. the extended sequence at mamie-claire’s house is (again, genuinely) a feat in cinema. “five feet to the left and unhappy”

Finally got around to printing off a bunch of the essays and articles that I had saved on my computer for a while. I find it makes it easier to get myself to actually get around to reading some of the stuff. Paper is also a nicer reading experience, with less distractions and eye strain.

Any pi.fyi rec (by someone else, not yourself) that you saw and then acted on yourself - read the book, listened to the album, watched the movie, tried the activity, etc.

A search engine that filters out commercial websites so you can discover weird, small websites on different topics. I wouldn't use it as my main search engine but it's a cool way of finding stuff you otherwise wouldn't.
