šš½ Hello There
Honestly this issue is sponsored by vibes because time is flying by so fast. How is it June already?! Iāve been lazy with my summer planning but if I channel the Virgo in my astrological chart then Iāve buckled down and finally booked a flight or two by the end of this week.
I mentioned SesameLA in the last newsletter but found out it closed down about a week ago. You can still visit Sesame Dinette in Long Beach, CA, though. Itās the owner of SesameLA parentās restaurant. I feel like a lot stores or restaurants are shutting down before I can go to them or return. Itās gotten really hard out here for people running a business or going on tour (speaking about J.Lo and The Black Keysā cancelled tours) as a lot of peopleās livelihoods are dependent on someoneās purchasing power. Plus, the entertainment industry is still dire after the strikes. I feel like someone needs to do a Thanos snap. Reset things back to summer 2021. The vibes were just right then althoughā¦COVID (itās still here but you know what I mean).
If you didnāt know, Ticketmaster was hacked so change your passwords ASAP, okay? Speaking of music, Apple Music released their top 100 albums. With the number one album, I overplayed this album when I was in elementary school which most likely annoyed the shit out of my mom. I was singing lyrics so passionately about things I knew nothing about at the time. Now, Iāve had some or many life experiences so the album hits differently and still love it from start to finish. I also didnāt realize how many songs I knew from the Stevie Wonder album that made the list. I shouldnāt be surprised IYKYK lol.
Here are some of my current obsessions because I know youāre interested š

Oh, and one last thing - a quick poll regarding referral program

P.S. Why did I just find out Kali Uchis is from Virginia?! Between her and Tommy Richardson, Virginia has become cool again. Pharrell, Missy Elliot and Timbaland made it cool when I was growing up then it wasnāt lol.

A man and woman share a wall and the sound proofing is non existent. She a pianist and he an inventor of unique games. Itās the classic from enemies to lovers troupe ā FYI movie is in Spanish Poor Things (Hulu) - Such an interesting movie. Not sure if I mean that in a good or bad way yet still š¤·š½āāļø. Itās definitely an art house film in itās full kookiness. TV Dead Boy Detectives (Netflix) - If you like mysteries being solved plus witches, ghosts, and more - this is for you. A fun supernatural procedural show. Fallout (Amazon) - Based on a video game where a nuclear bomb was dropped in the 1960s. I enjoyed this more than I thought I would, definitely takes two episodes or so to get into if itās your type of show. The music from the 60s serves as an interesting contrast to the desolate world full of violence and people (ghouls too) trying to survive. |
