Welcome the return of Father Figure - an afternoon of dad rock and hard ____. Come out to Mary’s sporting your best dad gear on July 18th from 4-8 and enjoy a day of classic rock from the 60s, 70s, 80s… and hell maybe even the 90s and 00s. We’ll have hot dogs on the roller too! See ya there!

Finally got around to watching this last night. I think I enjoyed it as a tone poem. Great visuals, great atmosphere, but the narrative didn’t work for me. I also really didn’t enjoy the ending. I know that a lot of people were really moved by this movie, but it didn’t have the same effect on me.

I’m way behind on my Oscar nominees, so I’m watching as many as I can between now and Sunday. First up was Anora. My first Sean Baker movie. Mikey Madison was great; great directing. Makes me want to go back and watch more Sean Baker films.

I've had a lot of ups and downs this past month or so. I got laid off 2 weeks before Christmas. I actually did have a really great holiday season with my close friends. I turned 50 a week ago. Then I had to say goodbye to my sweet 15 year old dog two days after that.
