In the Mix with YouTube
Music mix channels are some of the best parts of YouTube. They keep you company when writing or studying. They’re great for finding new music, without having to dig through tons of other channels, or Spotify. It’s often the best part of my day to put music on and write.

The Godfather's Brilliance: A Critical Appreciation
"The Godfather" is a cinematic masterpiece. With impeccable casting, writing, and directing, the film's brilliance shines through. Marlon Brando and Al Pacino deliver exceptional performances, supported by an outstanding cast. Even in my critical eyes it's a perfect ten, as it flawlessly captures the essence of power, family, and crime.

My Fair Lady
My Fair Lady is abuse, misogyny, and an alarming age gape all concealed in delightful musical numbers. Alas, despite these glaring flaws, it delights and warms the heart. Join Eliza, a poor flower girl, as she rises up in social ranking with the help of a berating phonetics professor, Henry.

Dune Book Series
A true masterpiece, Dune can sometimes be confusing, shifting between multiple characters' points of view mingled with made-up jargon. However, these five books spanning fifteen thousand years are truly fascinating stories worth the thousand hours spent reading them. Warning: There is a bit of incest, but only for breeding purposes.

Hocus Pocus
Spooky season is almost here, and what is it without Winnifred, Mary, and Sarah? The perfect blend of goofy and fun with iconic characters and just enough heart to put a spell on you forever. Gary and Penny Marshall are icing on the cake. But the sequel is absolute garbage.

The New Human Resources
Netflix is a streaming service that provides its customers with an abundance of original content. Under the "adult animation" tab is a show: Human Resources. Once you get past the grossness, the situations are relatable. The first few episodes touch on post-partum depression, infidelity and alcoholism. Worth a watch...18+

(Mostly) Good Omens: the show
A delight to watch the characters interact, their reluctance to admit genuine care for each other’s well-being, amidst a humorous struggle to handle a world on the verge of cosmically falling apart. However, my appreciation of it relies too much on what it promises, not entirely upon how it delivers.
