๐ Book Review: Without Feathers by Woody Allen // bradley-andrews.com
๐ Letโs goooooooo
๐ I am officially hooked on humor writing. I cannot believe that I have never explored the genre before, but diving into it now feels as significant (and as exciting!) as stumbling into philosophy was as a teenager.
Came across this classic from Woody Allen today that is an absolute must read.
๐ Itโs Halloween yโall. Here are some good short stories appropriate for the holiday that you can read right now:

๐ฅ๐ฟ My very low-stakes review of “Weapons' by Zach Cregger.
Warning: Spoilers!
๐ฅ๐ฟI wrote a brief analysis on Ari Aster’s Eddington:
Indeed, at its core, Eddington is a tale about communicationโor, rather, miscommunicationโof our desires, identities, and realities. The settings and personalities are held distant enough to let us laugh at the caricatures, but not held so far that we lose sight of our own reflections. Delightfully non-partisan, Aster manages to take the mick out of both the far right and far left in order to illuminate the subtle, but exponentially more influential, technological forces at play.

๐ต๐ฅ Machine Gun Kelly having one of the best dance sequences in a music video in recent memory is so unexpectedโฆ but so enjoyable.
Shoutout also to Travis Barker of Blink-182 who is credited on the song. A fellow Inland Empire native who made it out and became a legend. ๐ค
