Mandaris

I wanted to try making a collection and put it in a post.

Just making small changes here and there tonight. I think I’m going to make the index only show posts that have a title.

Creature Commandos (2024) - ★★★☆☆

It looks cooler than it actually is.

If you liked The Suicide Squad, then you'll probably like this one as well. It's a similar premise and it's not trying to hide it. You could even say that's the point of it, and that's ok.

I don’t need everything that I watch be a completely new idea. Sometimes, there is a comfort in having a similar narrative.

But, I feel this one has a less satisfying ending.

In this one, we have damaged people causing damage.

Some plot lines end with little fanfare and the ones that really pull at my heartstrings end with nothing really changing the status quo.

And, I feel that’s saddest part for me.

Overview

Follow the exploits of the Creature Commandos, a secret team of incarcerated monsters recruited for missions deemed too dangerous for humans. When all else fails... they're your last, worst option.

What is your next action?

It feels like some the more popular writing applications are getting a significant update. As someone who feels like they are bouncing around from one to another, this is great as I don’t have the added FOMO for features.

Who knows, I might get my writing workflow under control.

The Best of Intentions

Back in December, I wrote a post about becoming more intentional in my day-to-day life. Sadly, I didn’t specify how I was going to go about it.

I made a couple of changes, but overall, I’m still finding myself getting into the same habits.

Thankfully, it’s never too late to start (or in this case restart) something new.

Here are the Actions that I’m going to do to get things in order.

Mornings:

  1. Wake up and stretch
  2. Drink a glass of water
  3. Write about what I’m grateful for and excited by for that day
  4. Begin the other morning routines

Throughout the day:

  1. Checkin on what I’m doing. Am I doing what I set out to do?

Evening:

  1. Review my wins
  2. Prepare for the next day
  3. Relax

For over a month, I wasn’t seeing any comments on my blog post and just thought that it was because everyone was busy with other things.

Turns out, I just didn’t implement that part in my theme.

🤦🏾‍♂️

Seriously considering making “Have a good weekend!” the way that I end my emails.
