hand-drawn cards are so endearing and make whatever ur saying that much more meaningful! the drawing doesnt have to be perfect or even that good. i treasure the stick-figure cards my 16yo brother who cant draw gives me on my bday. you can also buy a sketchpad of postcard size paper (around 4x6 inches iirc) and then make ur own postcards to send to friends whenever ur thinking of them! as long as its the right size usps will accept them, u just have to draw the lines on the back and add a stamp 👍
edit: omg also added bonus to this is being able to tailor art to the receiver's interests- this card is for my grandmother hence vintage looking flower pattern but u could make cards themed around shared interests or inside jokes or whtever u want

The best $25 I spend every month. Literally pays for itself if you see one movie
plus if I see a bad movie I don’t feel like I wasted money

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!!

wikirace is a browser game where you try to get from one randomly generated wikipedia article to another by clicking through links on wikipedia. im not great at it but its so fun and a great way to find new & interesting topics to read about! its nice finding articles about mundane things i probably wouldnt think about otherwise, like a hydroelectric dam in pakistan or the denmark national badminton team
