Protecting Soldiers and Mothers, Slavery by Another Name-there are so many astonishing books that touch on the subject. In terms of nonfiction, I’m mostly reading books that have to do with the book I am writing, which is about administrative complexity, bureaucracy, administrative harassment, and paperwork. I pick good stuff to read! As for novels, I adored Hamnet. īest novel I’ve recently read, and the best work of nonfiction: I am terrible at picking favorites! I love everything. As for the art film, I’m going with Into Great Silence, a documentary about monks living in an isolated monastery in the French Alps.
#Bluey sleepytime book movie#
I’d argue that it’s not just a great movie it’s a perfect movie: perfectly structured and perfectly paced, with perfectly formed characters whose arcs wrap up perfectly, in several cases because the character gets eaten by a dinosaur, as they fully deserve. I must have seen it a hundred times by now I can recite pretty much the entire thing. My favorite blockbuster and favorite art movie: Jurassic Park for the blockbuster. It is also the music playing when Jeffrey “The Big” Lebowski gives his “strong men also cry” monologue, by the way.) Īn actor I would watch in anything: Helen Mirren. The guy functionally wrote his own funeral mass! That’s got to be the most metal musical act of all time. (Fun fact: Mozart died prematurely while he was writing his Requiem. The upcoming event I’m most looking forward to: I just moved to New York with my family gosh, is there a better city for music? Among the many things I have tickets to and am pumped to go see: this small experimental-music festival, this Fleetwood Mac–heavy dance night, this performance of Mozart’s Requiem. “The only productivity hack that works on me”.Cover story: “I never called her momma.”.She was also telling it to Lucky, whom she birthed as symbolized by this hatched planet, and whom she loves but cannot raise lest the entire charade of their civility collapse. Chili wasn’t just telling Bingo “I’ll always be with you, even if you can see me” in this episode. As Chili drags Lucky’s Dad away, he screams “I don’t know about this!” He obviously assumes Chili is attempting to drag him away for another night of passionate love making (it happens at night after all), and he protests because he has already found forgiveness from his wife. Even further evidence can be found during the episode Aparagus. She has seen him shake it before, and in the midst of an alcohol fueled arousal she longed for the unforgettable gyrations of the one and only Lucky’s Dad. Further evidence can be found when Chili shouts “Shake it, Lucky’s Dad!” during Stumpfest. Lucky is secretly the product of a tryst between Lucky’s Dad and Chili, which both Lucky’s Family and the Heelers have decided to forget about for the sake of their children and marriages. So long as we don't lose sight of that, all good! We can happily discuss the logic of it all, but it's important to remember that the main goal is enjoyment and connection.


It's reasonable to argue that it's a cartoon show with dogs and Sleepytime is about two parents doing their best to support their children while still getting rest. It's reasonable to argue that it's Bingo's dream and it wouldn't make sense. It is reasonable to argue that Mercury could represent a miscarriage. If it works for you and you have some explanation that gets you there, excellent. The author's confirmation that it meant something specific for them is unnecessary to let it stand as a metaphor for something else. One of my favorite quotes is from John Green: "Books belong to their readers."Ĭonnect with a character because you see yourself in them? Go for it. I'm talking specifically about how people get frustrated with how other people derive meaning from something. People should just go with whatever they can justify that brings them meaning. Yeah, this is where it gets interesting to me.
