spy kids

2001 - robert rodriguez

film rewatch - march 28, 2025

devastatingly for me, carmen and juni’s dynamic is almost identical to mine with my own little brother, with whom i watched this with today. i think i might cry its genuinely making me feel things. also funny as fuck. i cannot express how exhilarated i am. my brother, whose attention span is awful, was also fully captivated, he really loved it. my life is better because i rewatched spy kids with my brother today. alan cumming as floop is giving ryan ross sorry. please dont ask me the specific reason why i rewatched this

alice by heart

2025 - HIGH SCHOOL PRODUCTION - original show by duncan sheik, steven sater, and jessie nelson

musical watch - march 21, 2025

live theatre is sooooo wonderful. the duchess was the tallest and funniest in the cast and also really fucking hot but only when in drag. im in love with the queen of hearts. brillig braelig was SO threatening and chilling it gave me goosebumps argh and the mournfulness of another room in your head destroyed me. the choreography, staging, and lighting were just. mwah. i got to see one of my fav musicals live im just so happy. argh

between the lines

2025 - HIGH SCHOOL PRODUCTION - original show by elyssa samuel, kate anderson, timothy allen mcdonald, and jodi picoult

musical watch - february 28, 2025

Lifechanging Experience. the cast recording does not convey how good this show is. my friends and all the others at my school are the most talented people in the world. i could go on for so long talking about how masterfully the themes of existentialism and the nature and power of stories and storytelling are explored in the book and music of this show, i'm constantly in awe of how tight and insightful and power the writing is, each individual element excellently coming together and building towards the conclusion that says "write fanfiction" . i sobbed throughout the majority of act 2, no joke i did not stop for like 4 songs straight. this is my new favourite musical.

lockjaw

2024 - matteo l. cerilli

book read - february 2025

one thing abt this book is that it is a ghost story. and you will forget that it's a ghost story until you're halfway through and you feel how it's wrenched its teeth around you and then doesn't let go until the end. another thing abt this book is that it is a story about marginalized kids neglected and cast aside, abused and uncared for, and no matter how they show it, they are all angry.

mika : revelation tour

2020 - stéphane bohée

concert recording rewatch - january 18, 2025

this is THE best mika concert proshot i've ever watched i'm falling to my knees my breath taken away sobbing tears of mirth it has everything : gorgeous cinematography, a setlist that is equally delightful and devastating, the use of colours as a recurring motif throughout the whole show, and a tiny bassist who i wholeheartedly believe would die for his singer (yes in a gay way)

aim and ignite

2009 - fun.

album listen - january 17, 2025

i'm out here saying "i can't believe i enjoy fun. so much" when i was literally a fun. fan before i was even a fob fan (just never wanted to admit it) so listening to an entire album is like a natural full circle moment for me actually.

album relisten - november 27, 2023

last of my and my brother's mika discog speedrun. me when sitting by the seaside drinking up the sunshine youre here so why dont we go dancing in sanremo

the origin of love

2012 - mika

album listen - november 25, 2023

apart my and my brother's mika discog speedrun. the origin of love is strange because it's relatively more toned down than mika's first two albums but it's still so all over the place relative to the ones that come after it. the title track origin of love is still mika's best song and like the greatest queer love song i've ever heard btw.

no place in heaven

2015 - mika

album relisten - november 24, 2023

apart of my and my brother's mika discog speedrun, we listened to no place in heaven, which he had never listened to in full. for me however it was a relisten! it's my fav mika album! there's just something so special about an album about blatant gay joy and melancholy. joy. melancholy. both catharthic when for so long you've been made to hide it.

life in cartoon motion; the boy who knew too much

2007; 2009 - mika

album listen - november 24, 2023

my brother and i were left alone to clean the house, so we decided to finally get around to that mika discog listen; his newest album is coming out in like a week so we did a bit of a speedrun. i think i liked life in cartoon motion a little more but both albums were very silly and just a little unhinged and full of heart and all that...

picture us in the light

um. fucking lifechanging. if you even care. oh my god. oh. there's so many things i could say about this book that actually i can't say anything at all. but just. every act committed in by the main characters always always always being proof of their love. oh.
