Mandaris

I got a new keyboard yesterday. I hope my wife doesn’t tire of the new click-clack sound that I’m making in our shared workspace.

She was taking a long time so I thought I should capture the moment.

Pretty tired right now. The only reason that I’m awake is that I’m trying to be there to support my daughter as she’s working on some homework.

A quick review of Wakanda Forever

Super short review:

I liked it.

Longer short review:

I really, really wish that I had more sleep before and after watching the movie. This movie does a lot of things that we don’t really see in a “super hero movie”. You get a feeling that the people making it were really trying to convey what it means to really lose someone. That in itself can be the entirety of a movie.

But.

This movie has a lot more that it wants to do and it’s ultimately the part that some might have a problem with.

It’s 3 hours and my family had just finished a day at amusement park after spending 6 hours on the road¹. They fell asleep but I’d go back and watch it all over again.

They were sleeping on the drive there. ↩︎

I wonder how many posts are going to use “barrel of monkeys” for today’s word challenge. I’ve only played that game once and can’t say that I’m in a hurry to play it again.

I’m now using my theme for my main site. I’ve got a “short” list of enhancements lined up.

I used to call it fast-food, now I just call it franchise food.

I don’t know if this is an accomplishment or a sign of a problem with my memory, but I was looking at a github repository and it said that I was a contributor.

I don’t remember working on this at all.

I’m not seeing replies on my site and I want to know if it’s because I didn’t add it properly to the theme or not. Could you respond to this if and when you get a chance?

I don’t think there is much aluminum in this.
