Movie Review: The Deliverance (Netflix)

Image
  "The Deliverance" is a gripping supernatural thriller that follows a struggling family plagued by demonic possession. The movie takes an unconventional approach, departing from the typical depiction of happy families beset by evil forces. Instead, we're introduced to a household ravaged by hatred, poverty, and despair, making them vulnerable to malevolent entities. Review: I was thoroughly captivated by "The Deliverance," thanks largely to Andra Day's phenomenal performance. Her portrayal of the protagonist is mesmerizing, eliciting a rollercoaster of emotions. Initially, I found her character unlikeable, but as the story unfolded, Day's masterful acting transformed my perception, leaving me invested in her fate. A pivotal scene, which I won't spoil, when Day's character had her breath taken away was powerful. The film's dark, realistic tone and departure from traditional exorcism movie tropes added depth to the narrative. However,

Laughter Without the Profanity: Nate Bargatze Shines in "The Tennessee Kid"

I recently watched Nate Bargatze's stand-up comedy special, "The Tennessee Kid," on Netflix, and I was thoroughly entertained.

I'm That Creep

If I could sit in a crowded place, the mall for example, and watch people all day without them knowing it, I totally would. For someone that doesn’t like to interact with strangers or people in general, if I can help it, I do find them extremely interesting. They especially are when they don’t know that they are being watched. Everyone acts differently when they feel like they are not being observed.   Even when they know I am standing there watching they are still interesting to me. I like to study people and see their little quirks. For example, there is a young lady that I work with that I like to watch. To be honest, she didn’t make a very good first impression with me. She seemed a little chaotic and high strung for my taste. Now that I am getting to know her a little better, I like her. She seems to be a kind-hearted person who craves girl time. In fact, I overheard her speaking of this the other day. She was talking about how she has to have a girlfriend to talk to.

Roles and Goals

I was reading a blog yesterday about how to prioritize your day. The author said that you start off by listing your priorities, of course. Then you want to determine your goal s for each of your role s in life. This step really got me thinking.  First of all, what are my role s? I am a wife. I am a dog mom (yes, this totally counts as a role ). I am a housekeeper, for lack of a better word. I am a writer and I am a Wiccan. Is this all? Why do I feel like I do so much more? When I write it out, it seems kind of bland. To compartmentalize my life makes it sound so dull. Why am I not doing more with my life? What can I do? How can I change my life to make it sound more important?   But wait, my life is important. My husband tells me that he couldn’t live without me, so there’s that. If I wasn’t around, how would he be able to function? I mean, what kind of horrible bachelor life would that be like without me there to tell him to put the dishes in the dishwasher and t
