“Thing of the week” is a journal like section where I write about something important from my week worthy enough to be shared. Most of the time it follows the format of Extremely my shit and A good place,
which are the main inspiration behind these series.
Brazil
2023-13
I recently watched 12 monkeys, which had scenes with some pretty cool futuristic steampunk props, which I really liked. This made me look up into the other work of the director, that’s where I saw Brazil.
Song Exploder the Cranberries
2023-12
I’ve already mentioned Song Exploder – a nice podcast where songs are “exploded” in parts, by the artists themselves.
This week, I listened to their last album, which reminded me of one of the best episodes of Song Exploder – the one about “All Over Now” from that exact album.
Diablo 4 Beta
2023-11
With nothing notable to share, and as I wait for the weather to fix itself, this week’s thing is the Diablo 4 beta.
Taxi Driver Soundtrack
2023-10
A few weeks ago, I watched Martin Scorsese’s Taxi Driver. It is a bit of an atmospheric film with some dark spots here and there, but to me, it’s one of the best portrays of being lonely in a big city.
Ulysses
2023-09
This week’s thing is my helper in writing these posts. The Ulysses app.
Originally, I was an iA Writer user, but for some purposes it became a bit limited for me.
Mad Max: Fury Road
2023-08
Pressing play on Mad Max: Fury Road yesterday I definitely didn’t expect such movie. I wanted to watch it because I saw it in some letterboxd lists about world building and aesthetic.
Truth About February
2023-07
This week’s thing is this video about February. I always looked at it as the most boring winter month, but this video made me even hate it a bit.
Severance
2023-06
I added Severance to my watch list the moment I saw the trailer. I had no doubt it will be good because the idea, at least for me, was unheard of.
Spotify Automix
2023-05
This week I found about a Spotify feature that I didn’t know existed.
I was listening to a Spotify made electronic playlist and started to notice that songs just don’t end.
Lisbon
2023-04
Recently, I got back from my first trip outside the country for a vacation since late 2019. I was in Lisbon with friends for a week and it was pretty cool.
