creativity
Nothing wasted: When creating artistic output, not everything will match the desire of the creator. Save your art. Use it later.

"I think that's the answer—the response, if not the solution—to all this anti-human momentum. Find people who haven't been bought, who do something that's meaningful to you or helpful for you, and help them do that." - @JuliusGoat
Rated A Quiet Place Part II 5/10
It's enjoyable but mostly forgettable. We do learn some new things about the creatures and I'm encouraged by what I'm seeing of the world-building especially where other people are concerned, but this needed to do more and with quicker pacing. It's great that it has something to say about young people and maturation but it doesn't do nearly enough to carry on the character development that was EXACTINGLY earned in the first film. A movie where Emily Blunt goes on to find her daughter and leaves the strange man to take care of her son and baby would've been a lot more interesting to me, but I also understand how that presents the potential for discontinuity. It is passable and holds things together, which is more than most sequels can so, so I really hope Part III builds on and expands the stakes. Give us more direct conflicts with and between humans, PLEASE.
"To allow the completion of every impression, every germ of a feeling deep within, in darkness, beyond words, in the realm of instinct unattainable by logic, to await humbly and patiently the hour of the descent of a new clarity: that alone is to live one's art, in the realm of understanding as in that of creativity" (Rainer Maria Rilke).

1. Dunkin’ Strawberry Dragonfruit Daydream Refresher, light on the concentrate, fill with more oat milk.
2. Tackled my biggest and most dreaded task first thing today - calling the IRS. (Probably not the best thing to try and do on a Monday morning as the hold time was 30-60 minutes, so I hung up and will try again tomorrow). Even tho the call wasn’t completed, I am happy I tried.
3. Started on a new art project using an old magazine as the base. Tearing out some pages so that there’s room for collaging and gluing some pages together for strength. The result will be a one-of-a-kind altered magazine filled with collages made from images and papers I love.
