So many “original” independent films were released this weekend. Obviously, I say that with a huge dose of sarcasm because there are excellent independent films hitting theaters all the time. People just aren’t paying attention. The reason I think they are this time around is because they’re touting some heavy A-list hitters. Although, most awesome independent films I watch have heavy A-list talent. For some reason people are only just now paying attention…I digress. Let’s see what made the cut this weekend.
Read moreRed Hot Chili Peppers – Unlimited Love Album Review
The year was 2016 when we last got a Red Hot Chili Peppers. Their newest release, Unlimited Love, welcomes seventeen (!) new tracks and the return of longtime, off and on guitarist, John Frusciante!
Read moreFan Art Friday: Charlize Theron
No real specific reason for drawing Charlize Theron, but you should check out most of hee work. She’s a fabulous actress! My top recommendation is Atomic Blonde. Enjoy!
Read moreBook Review: Landline by Rainbow Rowell
Given that I’ve really enjoyed all of the other books I’ve read by Rainbow Rowell, I’m surprised it took me this long to read Landline! I would consider this an adult novel compared to her Simon Snow trilogy and Fangirl, but it was just as great and easy of a read!

Now that the week of streaming is complete for the 46th Cleveland International Film Festival, I can finally review what I got the opportunity to watch!
Read moreLetterkenny Live!
If you’ve been paying attention at all the last several months, you knew this was coming. Given that I binge-watched ten seasons of Letterkenny in under two months, it was a no-brainer that I was going to catch their touring live show! Yes, this tour was supposed to have happened in 2020, but the pandemic actually worked in my favor this time.
Read moreWeekend Movie Review
Well, I suppose this could be counted as a week-long movie review. I had so many films I wanted to get caught up on that I started pretty early in the week. Still plenty to be viewed over the weekend, too. Anyway, here’s a very high level review of what made the cut!
Read moreBook Review: Mrs. Fletcher by Tom Perrotta
Back during the start of the pandemic, I watched the miniseries Mrs. Fletcher on HBO. I had no clue it was based on a novel of the same name, so when I saw it discounted at my local bookstore, I snatched it up right away. In thinking back, I really enjoyed that miniseries when at first I was a little nervous to start it.
Read moreFan Art Friday: Mads Mikkelsen
Well, I drew only one day this past week, so you’re getting a repeat. Here’s an old, mini Hannibal drawing of Mads Mikkelsen since people can see him in the newest Fantastic Beasts installment. Enjoy!
Read moreDouble Album Review: The Linda Lindas & Wet Leg
This was originally just going to be a review of the new album, Growing Up, by The Linda Lindas, but then the Youtube algorithm shoved Wet Leg’s self-titled debut in my face, so now you get two for the price of one. It’s also helpful because it’s hard to elaborate on the phrase, “the whole album is amazing,” because they both were. But I’ll try.
