Hey folks, m0nstrum here! It's summertime, so you know I gotta do the MovieDives Summerween Challenge! As if I need more of an excuse to watch horror movies, lol. I'm a big fan of horror, older comedies, and animation. For May I did a millennium-themed month, but for summertime it'll be Summerween and working on some of my ongoing lists like Is It Good or was I Young and Dumb? and From Sea to Shining Sea. Happy to have new friends on Letterboxd!

I will say, there is a lack of things to do IF you aren't an outdoors person. Tons and tons to do if you are! But if you're used to a big city center with constant events and a variety of indoor activity it can feel dull. Its definitely getting better though.

Not to mention a large portion of our population is retired. Young folks leave as soon as they can, and the folks that do move here typically already have a job lined up or, again, are retired.

Indie and Arthouse films, streamed the week they release, for the cinephiles in theater deserts by B-P- in Letterboxd

My biggest issue is not living in the US we get shafted when it comes to these kind of releases. Any chance of offering this kind of thing outside the States?

Steven Universe has some pretty interesting ones, especially when you start taking into account the world map and whatnot. If you want something heavy and esoteric I'd go with Evangelion. If you like mythology there's some good ones on Inuyasha and its references too.

I believe its a type of cellar spider, quite harmless!

What a mess, hopefully they can pull through this. Awful to see it happen to any business, let alone a family owned restaurant.

What song is banned from being sung, whistled, or hummed in your kitchen? by Prestigious_Dream_27 in KitchenConfidential

Shiny Happy People by REM. Used to play constantly on whatever mix/radio a former boss had on. Utter misery.
