April 19-25, 2026

Truth and Lies: Fatal Dive to the Titanic - You know how sometimes you watch spin-offs just for the cameos of characters already loved? I don't really care for Stockton Rush, I'm just here for Patrick Lahey and Victor Vescovo. Also James Cameron just ranting and giving 'I told you so' vibes the entire documentary is funny.

Thrash (2026) - Oof I almost got a Netflix subscription for this. Good thing I didn't pirate it instead. Shark thrillers are already ridiculous by themselves, but this one managed to be the most. CGI was bad, writing was bad, plot was bad. The sole thing I liked about this was that one sequence where they wrap a dynamite with steak. That's it.

What Remains of Edith Finch (2017) - Finished. Left me staring at a wall for hours. At some point, Walter's story made me scream in shock and I had to cover my mouth (if you know what part, you know). I can't stress out enough how much I love this game - from the plot to the mechanics to the graphics and voice acting. It gave me that same eerie melancholia that I got from Haunting of Hill House (2018). My favorite Finches (in order) were Lewis, Walter, Calvin, and Molly. God, all the Finch kids deserved better. I'll probably make a separate blog post when my thoughts are coherent enough and are less like ramblings.
The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood (2023)
Lost in Play (2022)
Stardew Valley (2016) - This is my fourth major save I think? I finally remembered to save five gold star parsnips on Spring, Year 1.

Attended two interviews this week, received another invitation for next week, and passed on one.
Took Haku to his first haircut (face trimming)! My son's so grown up now I'm crying.
