🎉 Weekend Edition Vol.048

anyone else's brain hurt?

Welcome one, welcome all. It's been another week. A week it has been...

We ended up getting a refund for our Captain America tickets and went to see Heart Eyes instead. Feeling pretty good about that decision. I imagine neither film is going to knock your socks off, but all the middling reviews of Captain America just had me questioning why I want to spend my time and money on that. Heart Eyes was at least a fun time at the theater bridging together rom-com and slasher genres together. I'm excited to see what director Josh Ruben does next when he has a better script and cast to work with.


First up this week, our second installment of our Consumption Gumption interview series, this time with the developer of the wonderful Sequel app for iOS. Given Romain makes an app for tracking consumption of Books, TV, Movies, and Games, I was super excited to have him join the "program" this month.

This weeks short story might be the weirdest thing we've ever published. The first time I read it, I didn't really know what I was reading or what was happening, but the words flowed in a way that was a bit mesmerizing.

And I slacked a bit this week... so no RoL...
