i love hanging out in parking lots. there’s drama in parking lots - you can make friends, you can make enemies, you can play soccer but my favorite thing to do is to listen to loud music. it has to sound like the speakers are about to be blown out. when i was a tour manager, i spent a lot of time in parking lots all around the country. richmond VA had an awesome parking lot under the freeway. i also got stuck at a burger king parking lot in miami one time and it was pretty fun. my absolute favorite parking lot is the biergarten parking lot on western ave in LA. i’ve fallen in love and i’ve had my heart broken in that parking lot.

Great movie to kick off the new year, on at 9 PM on the 31st at the Studio Galande cinema in the 5th arrondissement, lots of fun and probably very nice people to meet. Come dressed up for extra fun.
As a bonus, I believe it's the only theatre in the world that's been showing the movie weekly with actors since it first came out in 1975, so that's pretty cool !

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!!

my friends send me videos of cranes and bridges all the time. it might be better than any movie before 2000. that shit is so captivating. so calming and inspiring. what are they building? when are they going to be done? will they ever be done? where did this crane come from? its so big. sometimes i sit in parking lots watching some fresh construction and think to myself, “are they building another parking lot?”

i’ve always been really good at math. people always asked me for help with math in high school and college. i think it’s strange that other people aren’t as good as math as i am. i thought everybody had to learn math. i use math all the time to make music now. i was also the captain of my high school soccer team (#8) which totally made me an asset.

i love handhelds so much i can’t even describe what they truly mean to me. for beginners, handhelds are sandwiches but as you become more advanced in the art of handhelds, you realize that the possibilities are endless. seafood handhelds, for example, could be anything from a shrimp poboy to an oyster to some baked crab hand rolls from katsuya studio city. connoisseurs understand that handhelds could also be tacos or quesadillas or even chips. the most classic, and my personal favorites, are overpriced tuna melts and cheeseburgers.
