Ugh, I’ll get around to making this post eventually.

This post is for casual conversation if you don’t feel like making a post of your own.

    Good things going on! I been selling old games, CDs and such and those have gotten sold way better than I dared to expect… And I treated myself and bought two games (PS3 RDR & GTA IV) for as cheap as I have been selling my games, kinda like a good trade.

    Also getting fresh salad, herbs and strawberries from the garden, yummy! Gonna make tortillas next, maybe watch a movie with fiancé. Feeling very good.

        PS3 and PS4, then CD’s and manga stuff. I collect myself so yeah, have been trading a bit but selling way more than what I’m deciding to keep. I have some vinyls too but as I’m selling online, not going to risk shipping…

    We went to The Odyssey last night. Incredible. Pretty close to flawless. The myth deserves a movie, and the movie did the myth justice.

      Really? I find this surprising only reading negative about it. I’d be interested too

        Your comment surprised me, because not only did we love it, at the end of the film, our theater heavily applauded. I’m reading through some negative reviews, and they seem to be complaining that the film is not “realistic”? Yeah, it’s an epic. A fantasy. A myth. A story. A well told, beautiful story about man’s struggle with honor, justice, punishment, and destiny. If someone can’t suspend their disbelief that gods, magic, and magical creatures are real, or can’t accept that we can take different ideas from the story today than what people would’ve taken from it 2000 years ago, that isn’t the story’s fault. It’s a good story.

          I grew up with Ulysses 31, I don’t expect realism from a myth 😁.

          Thanks, I will keep it on my radar!
