Trying to be Idyllic Girl Who Writes On the Balcony but I’m being eaten alive by mosquitos which should not be a thing because it’s literally October!! Living in Texas sucks so bad I wouldn’t wish it on my worst enemy— just kidding, I totally would.
I’ve just watching Nobody Wants This on Netflix— seems my decades long campaign to bring back Adam Brody into public consciousness has paid off—and unsurprisingly left a little devastated. I do think the show really depends on the chemistry between Adam and Kristen Bell to do most of the carrying (some of the writing is so…). I just want to know how you can cast Willa from Succession and Jonah from Veep and write dialogue for them that is somehow meant to be the portion of the show that you look at your phone. Is Sasha meant to be falling for Morgan? Vice versa? Or is this a weird commentary on male/female friendships? Fellas you know when your brother is banging a girl and her hot mean sister is in cahoots with you for some reason and also your wife is not allowed to know about it… hello?? But anyway back to the leads: the impact of Brody’s character on the modern dating scene for women who date men will be studied by scientists and philosophers alike for at least two election cycles. As per usual, Bell’s flawless depiction of being a woman who is “hard to love” has left a gaping hole in my heart that I can’t talk too much about without feeling embarrassed.
I’ve noticed a small callous on my hand which is weird because I don’t do any manual labor or rock climb. Bravely not googling “skin conditions that could give me a spontaneous callous” (edit: since typing this, I have googled it and confirmed that hand eczema can cause callouses… haha! being really cool about it!) Anyway nothing important or cool to report about my life except that I need to figure out my Halloween costume this year but I’ve been too busy battling my neurochemical demons and the evils of capitalism. Maybe I’ll have something for you next time.
