"This is where I’ll stop until part 2 of the Villeneuve adaptation comes out later this year—definitely looking forward to watching this not knowing anything.
What’s apparent from reading this so far is (1) the 2021 adaptation took great care condensing the movie script into something that stands unique (2) the book is so rich in lore, that it makes for a fun and intriguing page-turner. Until next time!" — Apr 02, 2023 02:31PM

I’m just good at habitually shifting the weight I carry around from one side of the fulcrum to the other, distributing it. Maybe this strikes others as cool. But it isn’t an easy operation. It takes more time than it seems. And even if I do find the right balance, that doesn’t lessen the total weight one bit.”
