I highly recommend this album: https://music.scenesat.com/album/the-sound-of-scenesat-volume-7

And the 6 volumes preceding it also.

Also, listen to SceneSat Radio, it's great.

The Netflix Depp v. Heard documentary is hilarious at face value. Faced with the writer strike, they just threw together a clip show based on a trial that everyone stopped caring about a season ago.

I watched the first episode just to see how bad it was. Not a single line of original dialog. Just a bunch of trial footage, news clips, and youtube highlights glued together.

Honestly, this does so much brand damage to them as documentary makers it can't be worth it.

I ordered a swamp cooler to help deal with this summer heat, but now I worry it might have chosen one that was too big. Should have looked at their marketing materials before I hit buy.

Can check.

Oh, and you can see it at the West Sound Film Festival on August 4: https://filmfreeway.com/WestSoundFilmFestival/tickets

If you live in or near #Seattle, I am highly recommending that you go and see the movie "Fantasy A Gets A Mattress".

It is a charming indie film about Fantasy A, Seattle's undisputed king of hustle, getting a mattress.

A wonderfully absurdist depiction of Seattle that you are absolutely missing out on right now. Better cinematography that I was anticipating, and a hilarious performance from their local actors from beginning to end.

Tickets are still available here: https://thebeacon.film/calendar/movie/fantasy-a-gets-a-mattress

Yeah, I know, context is everything, and there's virtually zero chance that anyone thinks we just dropped a literal H-bomb capable of reducing Europe to dust.

But c'mon now...
