My poor wife’s eyes glaze over every time I talk about whatever it is I am into at the time, lol. For instance now I can’t shut up about a federated Reddit alternative ;-) She supports my nerd-side and it’s great to have a spouse that is even slightly into whatever I think is cool, but yeah I’m a dork …

Oh I love movies! I just finished one that was restored by Mosfilm from the 60s, based on this Pushkin poem… tonight I’m gonna finally check out Jeanne Dielman since it topped the Sight and So-

What? Oh yeah cool another Marvel installment 😬
