Notes from the Post-it Wall | Week of July 31, 2022

Letting your feelings guide you is a wonderful way to parent and a terrible way to influence other adults.

I Often Wonder

A year prior to my acquaintance with E, I had fallen in love with a girl whom I will refer to as J. She was a goddess and the first woman in our school to develop breasts–the primary source of my friends’ envy when I eventually began dating her.

I Believe... [Jake & Harry's Tap]

...that when you name one son Harry and the other son Jake, you better be investing in a bar for them instead of college.

The Personal Grievances That Fuel Ideology

So, I asked myself "When did I become a Nazi?"

Ask us about our class action suits for sperm.

I Believe... [The Mobius Strip of Trauma]

...that your trauma doesn’t make a good excuse for your poor behavior. No trauma in existence requires you behave like a screaming child yet enduring an adult screaming like a child can be traumatic. Like a Mobius strip of trauma.

Live Your Life as If It Were a Comedy

The world is ridiculous. My life is just as open to mockery. Maybe that's the trade-off. If I can find myself to be a legitimate source of comedy, I get a pass on finding everyone else as a source of hilarity.

I Like to Watch | Thor: Love and Thunder (2022)

While the world may be oversaturated with too much MCU, I'm not. I am, however, thinking Waititi might need a break. He is almost the MCU Joel Schumacher.

Crisis Headlines Are Not Helping

Despite the desperate need to spin reality, perspective is essential to keep your head from exploding like that dude in Scanners. Perspective is about wondering what the headlines might look like from a different angle than your baked-in certitude of moral authority dictates.

I Believe... [No More High School Drama, PLZ]

I believe... that with the state of society in 2022, a moratorium on high school dramas is in order. I get all the bitchy, judgmental bullying I need in line at the grocery store.

Without Honors

It’d been 5 days since the assembly fuck-up. The house was like a morgue. Nobody’d talked to nobody. I worked as much overtime as they threw at me just to stay away.

Poor Ivanka, Don Jr., and Eric Trump. The wrong parent died.

I Like to Watch | Elvis (2022)

Like The Greatest Showman—a movie musical that completely reframes the huckster P.T. Barnum into an equity-chasing social justice type—this is not intended to be an accurate biopic. It is a meditation on the legend that was Elvis Presley.
