2020.03.19 Dispatches From the Wasteland – Day 4

Another day of the new normal.

I feel pretty settled in, unsurprising given I was born to be a wizard-hermit, burrowed deep in the earth, muttering incantations and gnawing roots for sustenance. Others I know having a much tougher time adjusting, I suspect the “getting-used-to-the-new-normal” period will be much worse than the actual “new normal”.

This will hopefully help

Classic Tokusatsu shows are EXACTLY what you need. I got the first 3 Ultra series blu-rays when they released last year so I should dip into those soon, but the idea of sampling a bunch of weird shows appeals to me.

Both of my favorite ambient music podcasts released new episodes recently, so stick those into your ears here and here.

And here’s a movie youtuber I like doing a very in-depth analysis of the Oil Derrick Fire Sequence in There Will Be Blood (the best movie of 2007).
