What I'm Watching
Last week I was sick and I was mostly watching Black Mirror... which probably isn't the best thing to watch when you're sick... I have recaps of that coming up on Sundays... I finished up season 4 and then I went back to season 1 and now I'm on season 3... I feel like I might need a bit of a break from it for a few days though... just because it's a heavy show and the episode I watched last night made me kind of uneasy... so I'm just going to kind of proceed with caution when I watch the next few episodes.
I also started watching Arrested Development again... which has been a lot of fun. I love that show it's my favorite tv show ever... and I'm really happy with it!
The Goldbergs 1990 something spinoff special was pretty great. I just liked it a lot. I hope they make that into a tv show...
I also really liked Crazy Ex Girlfriend and Jane The Virgin this week. It was the return of both of those shows... which is pretty cool! I thought they did a great job.
News
I've been watching the Phillip Defranco show lately... I follow the news pretty regularly... but mostly I watch local news that isn't really anything I report on here... but The Phillip Defranco show had an interesting story so I'll mention that...
A girl with Alopecia was attacked at her school by a bully that filmed themselves grabbing her wig and they said "Weave snatchers." The wig was actually attached to her... so it was actually painful how they grabbed it off of her and chunks of her hair were missing and wigs are not cheap I'm guessing... so they actually destroyed this property of hers... the school didn't do that much about it- they gave the kid an in-school suspension and the principal is trying to encourage people not to share the video... he's claiming it is because it encourages this sort of negativity... when in this kind of situation it does not actually do that... it brings awareness to an actual issue... and the girl's parents are pressing charges and the girl has since just stopped wearing wigs to show that she is just as beautiful as anyone with a full head of hair... and I think that kind of reaction is awesome. I'm going to link the video just because I don't know if I got the full story exactly right... but I was saddened about the bullying situation- but I really think this girl is brave and beautiful for how she's taking it and I think she's handling it more maturely than I would have... so here is the link to that video. There's a lot of other interesting and weird things going on right now too.
Food and Drink
When I was starting to feel better last week I had a Vanilla Bean Frappucino that was really good. I liked it a lot... I also had some Ramen from a really good new Ramen restaurant near me that I'll review soon.
Favorites
I'm not sure if this is a favorite or not... but I read the book The Grownup by Gillian Flynn yesterday... that's an interesting one... I'll write about that soon.
And I already did a blog post on The Grammy's... but I did really like them and maybe I'll do a music review on some of the nominated albums soon?
Other Stuff
I did my first youtube collaboration and I'm really excited about that!
I also have a collab coming up on Friday that I'm pretty excited about too and I need to edit for that one!
Byeee!
