Finding Yeezus

Frances Ha, Queen of New York
These days I’m so eager to share information. It’s the information age, they say, so I guess that’s quite all right. While I watched Frances Ha, I couldn’t help but make a mental list of all the people in my life that I needed to share this film with. My… [Read More]
‘Game of Thrones’ and the “Now What?” Syndrome
Okay, so the Red Wedding went down earlier this week, along with Catelyn, Robb, Talisa and one of maybe six hundred major plotlines. You’ve had a few days to decompress, reached out to those you care about, and resolved to stick with them and get through these hard times in… [Read More]
