DISMANTLE WHARF

meadows

Haven't watched Severance- I'm saving all of Apple TV for some future date, to explore en masse

Is anyone watching Our Flag Means Death? It's so funny and so sweet- by the end I had a tear in my eye. Kind of a slow-ish start so if you aren't fully amazed, be patient!

meadows

I love everything about this except the covid virus

meadows

that's wonderful

I just planted some white speckled violets... no other plans yet but I know I will get a few things once I see what comes back from last year. SPRING.

meadows

I bought a very cool and cute e-reader and hardly used it- like new, still has packaging, etc. Poke me if anyone is interested in buying it from me and we'll make a deal!

meadows

oooooooooh

meadows

I think it's a citrus fruit, right? I've never seen one IRL!

meadows

Oooh you could make bergamot infused honey or simple syrup, for tea and drinks?

meadows

both of these are exactly what I want to learn/know about the world

meadows

VERY VERY COOL

meadows

an e-reader has been purchased... will check back when I've taken it for a spin

meadows

ok one text message coming your way!!! don't wanna do spoilers for board people who might read or watch. if i had to pick one of the two I still pick the book over the show, but the show has some MOMENTS that made me cry hard. yessss yellowjackets, rich! it would be so cool if the music cuts got a l...

meadows

That's really cool, I'm hemming and hawing but also thinking about the e-reader lifestyle! For "good" books I still prefer to have the paper object but I read a lot of mediocre or shit books on my phone, through the library. As a person of many headaches it's one of the only things I can d...

meadows

If you read it, let me know... I have thoughts and questions :p

Yellowjackets has Juliette Lewis and Christina Ricci, is partially set in 1996 and paid the $$ for a soundtrack that reflects it, and is honestly scary as hell!

meadows

I love this thread

meadows

I loved the book it's based on but I've only seen one episode of Station Eleven. Sometimes hard to let go of the book/personal vision, but it's compelling thus far.

Anyone else wanna talk about Yellowjackets? I am obsessed, on the edge of my seat.

meadows

oh yeah TOM, TOM'S not going to be a punching bag anymore! Tom wants some agency and respect and a frickin baby!

meadows

I thought the finale was really excellent, and I'm not sure I'm going to rewatch any of this season right away. The darkness of Kendall's black hole felt like too much for me- I don't generally want to consume entertainment where someone might seriously harm themself. It was incredibly compelling an...

meadows

I'm not a particular fan of LG but when I heard this I thought it felt very right, such good interpretation of this song:

There's a contemporary country person that I really like, Orville Peck. He's a beautiful gay cowboy with a deeeeeeep baritone voice. He's on Sub Pop!

meadows

whoa, that looks amazing!

meadows

let's get sad and/or think about death

meadows

I thought that the board was dead, but it turns out I just wasn't logged in! I didn't see the little stars that show fresh comments and I felt so sad. I'm back at IRL work and it's good and bad. I feel really exhausted by it, but I also don't want to only live on zoom? Feels to me like mostly just t...

meadows

I loved Priestdaddy and can't wait to get the new one, whenever it's in paperback. Tell us about it!

meadows

oh my god!!! what a cruel twist of fate!! did you still go?

meadows

maybe i just go make a playlist too.......... insert cowboy emoji here

if the country music vibes feel good may I recommend watching The Last Picture Show?? What a film.

meadows

Oh shit, the country thread!! I second Merle and Emmylou and Gram. Here are some more fave faces/songs/albums: Dolly Parton, Emmylou Harris, Linda Ronstadt- Trio Merle Haggard- Silver Wings Townes Van Zandt- almost anything but CERTAINLY Live at the Old Quarter Rodney Crowell- Bluebird Wine Ricky Ne...

meadows

Greg the egg! One of the tallest men on television?! I'm also so happy it's back and that we only get an episode a week. Sometimes before the new one drops we will re-watch the previous ep, to get real juiced up. I'm happy to be back in the world of their specific language. Telling someone "You...

meadows

anyone else watching succession? any con heads in the chat?

meadows

Such an epic series of costumes. Love to see those pleasers getting use year after year.

meadows

Best book I've read in years is Hamnet by Maggie O'Farrell. It's described as being about Shakespeare, but it's really about being a witch, the plague, death, grief, nature vs culture. I've gotten a few people to read it (ritchey!) and so far it's been a crowd pleaser. I don't really know how to des...

meadows

well...

meadows

Other voices other rooms! I think my favorite is THE GRASS HARP.

meadows

My best days are weekends, Monday, Tuesday. Wed/Thurs/Fri I'm generally at work alllll day.

Sexbots are welcome to come to the talk if they have a hunger for knowledge.

meadows

I'm down to do my TED talk anytime this fall, if that still sounds fun. It's so quiet here now that we're not all quarantined!

I'm currently playing: a puzzle app on my iphone.

meadows

My all time fave was 4th grade fervent request to be a french clown, for reasons that no one knew and I can't remember. I had the black and white silky pajama suit with the big neck ruffle, a beret, and a painted face. I felt... powerful. My peers.... confused.

meadows

meadows

I don't know about that, is it good?

meadows

I have no idea who that is, but the formal socks look is HOT

meadows

The only tv thing I've been excited about is Reservation Dogs.It's funny and smart and was written and directed entirely by indigenous people. We are only a few episodes in but already very much hooked and obsessed.

meadows

Not only is that really cool and thrifty, it looks incredible and intentional!

meadows

How fun!

meadows

I desperately want to see the Green Knight in a theater but covid in Oregon is SO BAD right now, it doesn't seem like the thing to do.
Even if it were only very beautiful I think I will like to see it large.

meadows

wow... this is so cool

meadows

Anyone want to chat about the Woodstock doc??

meadows

Those cloth bag pots rule, especially for big stuff. Big plant pots are expensive! I have my cucumber in one and though it's dying from powdery mildew I still enjoy it's presence. My sweet peas finally bloomed (so late!) and they are purple/burgandy/white feathery striped with the sweetest smell, al...

meadows

goddamn I can't ever get gifs right on here, sorry!

meadows

It's her day, she is here, she's the season, and I wish her peace and joy!

meadows

I still want to do this but my summer has been unreasonably busy and stressful. Tabled until fall? I'm excited, just too slammed at the moment!

meadows

I'm also really enjoying the white lotus, which has captured both the humor and the deep, deep sadness of Jennifer Coolidge's skill set.

meadows

Yes, her eyes are like sad/expressive marbles
