movies and tv shows

  • Kiki's Delivery Service (1989) - my favourite movie of all time!!!
  • Grand Tour (2024) - beautiful historical drama about a guy running away from his fiancée
  • Fleabag (2016-2019) - black comedy, very meta, dry humour
  • The Talented Mr. Ripley (1999) - this is what "Saltburn" tried to be but failed
  • Addams Family Values (1993) - Gomez and Morticia are relationship goals
  • The Ninth Gate (1999) - I loved the use of orange and turquoise accents, as well as the wild satanic goose chase
  • Sex and the City (1998-2004) - despite a lot of it aging very badly, the show has its really wholesome moments and allows for self reflection by being provocative in many different ways

books and stories

  • "The Secret History" by Donna Tartt - why did they kill him and what do the Romans have to do with it?
  • "The Lunar Chronicles" by Marissa Mayer - cozy! cute! sci-fi! Check out this playlist btw
  • "Vertical" by Rafał Kosik (book in polish) - people live on ships that climb up and up, seemingly without end. But what if they decide to just... fall down?

podcasts

games

  • Simcity 4 - very stress-inducing, especially when you're a 9 year old playing this on your dad's computer
  • Cozy Caravan - still in beta, getting lots of updates but still really fun to play! You complete tasks for villagers and explore the beautiful world.
  • Zoo Tycoon 2 - my all time favourite childhood game, now abandonware
  • Go Vacation - originally I played it on the wii but now it's also available on switch!
