Last night, Mr. Daniel “Unfortunate Events” Handler made me this Marital Status Chart for the price of One American Quarter. Anna has a very similar Delayed Chart. Believe it or not, they’ve both been very useful already.
I’m certainly late to the game, but Metropolis truly is amazing.
UPDATE: There was at least one robot.
About to see a 2.5-hour restoration of Fritz Lang’s Metropolis (1927). Never seen it before. Are there robots? I like robots.
You guys, the Castro Theatre here in San Francisco is really pretty.
So did you see they released a new TRON: Legacy trailer a few days ago? I didn’t. Listen: I know I’ve been a little out of it lately, so I’m really counting on you guys to tell me stuff like this. I count on you. I do. <3
(From the site:) The Raygun Gothic Rocketship is a rococo retro-futurist future-rustic vernacular between yesterday’s tomorrow and the future that never was, a critical kitsch somewhere between The Moons of Mongo & Manga Nouveau.

So this past week, Anna was walking to the Oakland Ikea with her headphones on. You know, as one does. Next thing you know, she was in the middle of an Impromptu photo session in the street by photographer Maurice Ramirez, helping him test a new light. He sent these on later that day. I can’t blame him, either: I’d take photos of her too.
(Sorry to embarrass you, dear, but you’re pretty.)
