Had a little watch party for Night Watch (2004), and my DVD copy saved us – YouTube wouldn't even let us project it (via AirPlay or HDMI)! Had to do USB DVD drive -> HDMI... and during all this, we got to watch the classic xtreem anti-piracy clip a few times 😆 Whatta vibe. image

I need to get better at social media apps, because I keep forgetting I was checking out someone's posts and then liking 8 things in a row like a frickin creeper >_< It's happened a bunch now and I will probably do it again!! sorry!!! * Edit: to be clear, I love it when people do that! Please like away. I'm just getting self-conscious about being Perceived lol image

Wow!!! Back from the offsite and I caught some #aurora from the plane. These photos are way more intense than it looked through my meat eyes, but it was still cool. ...Also got stuck on the tarmac, & I was once again v grateful for the Flo Mask Pro 🙃 Bit of an investment, but it's been doing the job well:
