if i had a comfort sitcom, this would be it :,) sadly it only has two short seasons, so i've seen every episode at least 10 times. (if you're going to watch it, make sure to look up the right episode order because it aired out of order.)
when i'm at a loss for what i want to watch, i put it on. somehow despite having seen it a bajillion times, the gags still land. there's also something so inherently 2000s about it with its slightly outdated jokes and energy that i find charming. it's the same way i feel about 2 broke girls. it's just fun hjinks with people who are kind of messed up!!!

๐บMy friend and I watch SATC and High Fidelity (2020) whenever we want to feel better about our romantic (and just general life choices).
If you like the world of Gilmore Girls, Freaks and Geeks is so comfortable to sit in. The characters feel like how real high schoolers (I dated a guy in high school a lot like Nick from this show and we all have, I think). The costuming and soundtrack is great, the midwestern vibes are comforting, and the acting is surprisingly raw and realistic for being a comedy series. Martin Starr has genius comedic timing.
Dollface is kind of a hidden gem! Kat Dennings is a gemini queen and she creates a really lush and intricate imaginary world in this show.
Community is perfect for pop culture nerds- the first season is like a lot of sitcom shows in that it takes a bit for them to hit their stride and find their audience. It does not use the mockumentary style like Parks & Rec and The Office, which gives the show more permission to be weird and far-away from reality.

I love a good sitcom, and this one became a quick favorite!
Home Economics is also a really good one, but unfortunately it was cancelled after 3 seasons :(
I'd also toss out Raising Hope โ been a while since I watched that one, but I remember it being extremely delightful.

going to see challengers on my own today! and i'm very excited. i'm someone who actually doesn't mind going to the cinema alone. i've done it so many times over the years, and totally do not get people who say it's sad. if i lived somewhere where i could go to late night screenings on my own, i would do it all the time.
sometimes i end up making a friend, sometimes i just get to sit and get sucked in and then i get to leave and choose my favorite place to eat. it's a nice way to spend a day on your own, and i think more people (especially people in their 20s) should take themselves on little dates.

๐ชตto me figs smell like summer. i love fig scents, especially if they smell a bit more green than fruity. my favorite perfume smells a bit like the green-ness(?) but also fresh, clean dirt after the rain.
if not fig, i am very much a sandalwood person or blackcurrant one. i like smelling nice but not necessarily floral. :)

i'm pretty sure i'm far from the first to say this, but holy shit. what a movie! i think i sat in the movie theater with my jaw dropped for a big chunk of it. electric, and crackling with tension- both in terms of relationships and the tennis court. some old school 90s sexiness and sexual metaphors, with beautiful shots and impeccable chemistry. just 10s all around for me. i think it's also a perfect movie to watch on a sweaty, sweltering summer day with some lemonade and auntie anne's pretzels (which i did) can't wait to see it again.
also i'm obsessed with apparently the notes for the score being "unending homoerotic desire" uhhh yeah! i got that
