Music, Movies, and Books

Lofi (lots of studying) star wars, dune, sci fi in general, everything everywhere all at once, parasite, most things by a24, love museums also (Ed Hopper grew up where I did. I was at an exhibit of his work at the Whitney and couldn't find my favorite painting Nighthawks. Woe and behold I was mozying around the Art Institute of Chicago to clear my head before an exam this year and stumbled upon it. Don't ever think that it left Chicago after they acquired it.
