I’ve always loved reading. Getting lost in a book is one of the greatest things about being human. Our imaginations are these infinite machines that allow us to read a sentence and create universes in our mind’s eye.

If there has been one unsung hero through this entire shit show of a health crisis, it’s been my old pal Netflix. Netflix has really stepped it up by changing absolutely nothing at all in its programming, reminding me of better days.
