My wife and I went out to the movies tonight. What was supposed to be a fun and relaxing evening turned into a very intense and somber evening. The movie was beautiful. We were just not prepared for a cinematic drama.
I suppose we should prepare ourselves better next time before buying box office tickets.

I was inspired by @andycarolan@social.lol ’s ‘User Manual’ he posted here a few weeks ago. I started working on one for myself as well, but I prefer to call it my /about page for now. To me, ‘user manual’ sounds too rigid. What are the implications if someone doesn’t follow it?
We had elections today in the Netherlands. I voted early this morning.
Late this evening, but by tomorrow morning in my case, there should be clarity on the outcome and the potential formations of our new government. While I hope for the best, I do have some anxiety about getting the worst, again.
