The Bride is an awesome movie! Definitely made for the big screen and not for laptops, so go see it right now. #TheBride #Letterboxd #filmsky

Een witte vrouw (ik) in een park met op de voorgrond een boom met gele bloemen en op de achtergrond bloeiende amandelbomen. Ik draag een grote zonnebril, een shirt met regenboogstreepjes en een lichtgeel colbert. Ik lach mijn tanden bloot en heb lang, donkerblond haar.

Storygraph screenshot of my March reading wrap-up. I read 18 books this month, my favourites were Sick to Death by Chris Bridges and Private Rites by Julia Armfield. I read mostly children's books, lgbtqia+, horror, poetry and literary fiction.

March reading wrap-up! I definitely counted all the picture books I read to the kids at school. #booksky

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

Every time I post my #LastFourWatched I gain some followers, which is great, but I should warn you I watch movies for fun and I once gave a movie a bad rating for having 'too many boys' (I'm letterstomiriam on Letterboxd if you want to read more of my insightful reviews).

I think I would have liked it a lot more if I had watched it in 1998.

I thought the concept was great, but I just couldn't bring myself to care about all those cops.

De schande van Nederland.

"... zo’n 445.000 mensen door ziekte of handicap niet kunnen werken, maar geen recht hebben op een passende arbeidsongeschiktheidsuitkering. Van hen ontvangen 245.000 mensen geen enkele financiΓ«le ondersteuning; nog eens 200.000 zijn aangewezen op de bijstand."

Nothing Mike Flanagan can do to top Melissa McBride's 90 seconds Oscar worthy performance in The Mist 2007.

Sixteen books a month is usually something I only achieve in July and August, when I don't have to work, so this is proof that January was 800 days long. #Booksky

Letterboxd screenshot of my review of Hamnet which says 'cried so much I thought I was going to throw up right in the middle of the cinema. Also, Jessie Buckley, the woman that you are'. I obviously rated it 5 stars.

Letterboxd screenshot of my review of the 2025 movie Dropbear. It's a one star review and it says 'this could have been Zombeavers good, but it was Winnie the Pooh: blood & honey bad'.

Letterboxd screenshot that says I watched 97 movies this year. Norman Reedus is my most watched actor. Chad Stahelski is my most watched director (which is funny because I have no idea who that is).

Letterboxd screenshot that says I watched the most films in weel 44 (oct 27 - nov 2). I watched 7 movies in that week, which makes sense because that's Halloween week.

I didn't watch any movies this week, so no #LastFourWatched today, but instead I'll share my Letterboxd wrap-up. You think I like horror movies? #LetterboxdFriday #Filmsky
