Just my big chonky, awesome cat loving her new box. A good reminder for me that it doesn't need to be hard to find things to be happy about.

We often see what we want to see, and we all have our own inherent bias and pattern recognition. That said, I went in cold turkey to the movie Thunderbolts* when my daughter and I went to see it recently. I didn't watch any trailers, avoided spoilers, etc.
And what I saw was me.
Here's My Short Spoiler-Free Review:
I was not at all expecting the amount of depth the story has
There are some very authentic-feeling portrayals of living with mental illness
It was fucking awesome
And My Slightly Longer And Still Not Very Spoilery Review:
As a person who lives with mental illness, I got to see A LOT of what I feel, have felt, have experienced reflected in a certain character's own experiences. And their journey isn’t just an inclusivity checkmark; it’s the core of the movie. I think a lot of people will see themselves reflected here, and by not explicitly stating this character’s diagnosis, they allow the story to include anyone who lives with mental illness, addictions, trauma.
And all of the thoughtful and nuanced handling of mental health notwithstanding, this is just a great movie all around. You should go see it.

Just a few reminders that:
- This is not ‘the most wonderful time of the year’ for everyone
- Whatever you have achieved this year, this month, today: It is enough
- YOU are enough

Lot of similarities between Molly and River. I endorse this. 😊

One day.
You can't be happy all the time, but this sorrow you are feeling isn't all you have. The pain demands to be felt, but it also tricks you into feeling that it will never go away. But you can find release from it when you start coping with it. Instead of believing this pain is all you will ever feel, believe in yourself and that you can heal. I know you can. One day, this won't hurt as much.

So. 2020. That happened. Here’s my review of the past year.
I wish everyone a *MUCH* better year ahead.
