My day started at 2:40AM with a high temp alarm at a site an hour away. Once I fixed this, an outage came in an hour from that site. And now I am working on that.

This is a daily post for “casual” conversation. If you want to post or talk about something non autism related this is where to do it. For example if you want to info dump about your special interest but it doesn’t fall into “autism related” then you can post it here in the comments. All other rules are still active, be respectful to each other.

    I’ve been continuing to water the tomato plants. I’m hoping they’re doing well but I have no true idea how they’re doing, it’s the first time I’ve ever planted anything myself. The planter box has some things growing in it but I forget what. Dill is one of them, pretty sure.

    I rewatched Nope (again) this morning and it is, from a storytelling perspective, just. so. incredible.

    If you haven’t seen Nope, there’s a huge twist that changes everything and nothing for the characters. Y’all know what I’m talking about if you’ve seen it.

    The director wasted nothing. Everything from costumes to background details either foreshadows something, reinforces a theme, or pays off later in the movie.

    The characters are great. The dialogue and character dynamics are realistic and relatable. There are some jumpscares in the first hour-ish of the movie, because it’s nominally a horror film. But, like an ogre, the movie has layers. It’s also a commentary on the entertainment industry, while also being a commentary on something i gotta elaborate on after i figure out how to do spoiler text.
