I saw the Mr and Mrs Smith promo, and it was so rad my brain had to take a minute to catch up to the concept. It's on my list to stream, along with Barbie! Side note: am so glad I found your substack full of your hilarious and insightful thoughts. PS: your deeply discounted bed frame score reminds me of the time in college when I had to hoist a mini fridge up four flights of stairs by myself in a walkup apartment. I barely managed it, it was dicey as hell. It's those moments alone with your thoughts and a large immovable object that you really find your inner strength, and also realize the absurdity of life :D

Always a pleasure to hear from you, Miss Sophie! I cannot imagine what it was like to hoist a mini fridge up a walk-up. You are so brave and strong and 10000% agree with the absurdity of life!

I don't know about brave or strong, but there was a lot of flop sweat and cursing involved on all those flights of stairs! Why isn't there a 911 number we can call to have like an off duty firefighter (just hanging out in the firehouse post huge buffet) show up to help in urgent scenarios like this?? :P

Love Frank O'Hara. Giving into the marketing hype + your rec and will add Mr. and Mrs. Smith to the list! But mostly commenting because I cackled at the the lychee wood description.
