Today involved a 7am meeting that I absolutely had to attend. Thank goodness I didn't have to be on camera. Said meeting has caused a low-level migraine, even tho' I went back to bed after it and slept for another two hours. Fucking international timezone considerations, grumble grumble grumble.

Last night we watched Tragedy Girls, which is a teen buddy serial killer comedy. It has some interesting things to say about social media, and I, of course, am always here for young women being ... terrible isn't the right word. Maybe "unhinged" is. I had seen the movie before, and was happy to share it with the Stroppy One. Alas, he didn't enjoy it as much. Even weirder, when I talked about how much I enjoy that movie, he looked at me and said, "Y'know, sometimes I really am a little uncomfortable with your choices in comfort media". I tried to explain that these sorts of movies, women accepting and reveling in becoming unhinged and evil, are not only soothing catharsis for my current stress levels, but are a power fantasy for the sort of girl/teen I was. He's still a little unnerved by it all.
