The Only Good Indians by Stephen Graham Jones!!!!! It's completely different to what I usually read, I tend to go for books with female characters but this one caught my attention and it became one of my favs ever. I basically devoured it. I’ve recommended it to everyone I've encountered (friend or not) but no one has read it yet :(. Someone pls read it!!!! you won’t regret it!!!

If you’re from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Don’t! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, it’s worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because it’s cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. It’s not really anything special visually but it’s a beautiful institution and it’s so fun to be there ❤️
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loew’s Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! It’s pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but it’s a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

Again, I'm using this category as an umbrella so I can list my favorite movies that I think by watching will make everyone's life better or at least distract you from whatever bullshit is going on in your own life for a moment, and put a smile on your face. Maybe you'll even relate to what the characters in the films are going through and you'll feel a little bit less alone and it will change your life forever. These are my favorite movies that I watch over and over again: An Unmarried Woman, Swingers, Annie Hall, Broken English, Girlfriends. Last Days of Disco, and Hannah and Her Sisters. And one of my favorite theaters to watch movies in in New York City is Metrograph. A sanctuary. A safe haven. The programming is extraordinary. And they have a wonderful restaurant upstairs called The Commissary. Run don't walk.

They hit different when it’s hot af outside and you only have a small fan to cool you. Also, must watch during the day. And have some ice cream, straight from the tub. Obscure films are not mandatory but are recommended, the older the better.

it might sound weird lol but it’s honestly really fun and interesting. i started reading about it last year but haven’t had time to really sit down and practice/do the readings. you dont need any money to start, you can search for pdfs about palm reading (quitomancy), also YouTube videos as well. if you end up liking it and want to read more then maybe buy some books but overall you can find any resources online for free
