This TV show was inspired by the movie Skate Kitchen, and it sadly only got two seasons. It had a wonderful diverse cast. The way it was shot and written was so refreshingly realistic & natural, in a way I still haven't quite come across since. I hesitate to solely say "written" (although I'm sure most of it was), because some of those dialogue exchanges felt so natural that they reminded me of improv. It was like the directors had turned on a camera and started filming an existing environment. (Was gonna recommend I Am Not Okay With This in this thread as well but someone else in the comments already gave it some love <3)

Watched this on Hulu the other night. Starts off with Welcome to the Dollhouse vibes, but then takes a really endearing turn.

wonderfully weird, takes place in nyc, so funny in a cringe yet very real/relatable sort of way. stars Alia Shawkat from arrested development. 5 seasons and it’s finished so u dont have to worry about cancellation. so good! (ps i’m only on s2 but i’m watching with my gf who has seen it all and rewatching it with me, so take her rewatch as a co-rec!)

I love doing collages, cuz all you really need are magazine cutouts and glue. There's a very low barrier to entry, skill-wise AND supply-wise, unlike painting. Digital collages are fun too, but I try to have less screentime by doing the paper ones. If I want to re-use pieces instead of gluing them down permanently, sometimes I'll just take a picture of the current arrangement to immortalize it, and then start over on a new composition. That way, I don't have to constantly buy new magazines to get new cutouts. This is one of my favorite ones I've done so far:

This is the only thing that keeps me sane at work. It's so slow right now. If anyone is wondering why I've posted like 9 times today.

i always get stuck choosing which stuff to watch/read/get into next when i look at my huge former watchlists & TBR's. a lot of items are things i put on there years ago and never got around to, so usually by the time i check the list again, my tastes have totally changed. i realized it was hard to get myself excited or motivated about half the stuff i put on there anymore, but i felt indebted to knocking it out anyway just because it was on the list. i'd recommend letting your current feelings/impulses take the wheel, and trust that you'll come back around to any of the other options if they're right for you later on.
