This week’s episode of 2 Cents Critic has aired! @fatdudedigsflicks.bsky.social has returned for the 2026 Oscars recap. This awards season is finally over, and I think it’s safe to say it was better than the messy toxicity from last year (ohhhh, Emilia Pérez…). podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/2...

Something about the NASA astronauts suggesting names for the newly discovered craters and people’s reaction to it reminds me that there is still good here. No matter how much Donald Trump wants to destroy goodness and empathy and care… there’s still some fucking good here.

Got out of the meeting to news that someone on my caseload passed away this morning. Someone I spent a lot of time with and got to know them and their family really well. This is the tough part of this job. So… basically I’m going to burn all of my PTO pretty soon. I’m… spent.

So I woke up and stressed out immediately because people were already getting on my case about the technical side of things. Went to meeting for someone who has shown VAST improvement over the last couple of years, so I got to pump him up a little bit.

I work in the field I work in because I truly care about the people I support. I want them to get the proper care they need and to be treated like human beings in the process. It’s the paperwork and inner office side of things that I hate and that’s the part that usually causes me stress.

Kinda crazy how I went from feeling stress-free and happy to be alive this Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, to instantly wanting to jump off a cliff as soon as I woke up today to check my work phone. Maybe that’s a sign.

The epilogue is usually the button to the end of the story. What happens next? Where does life go for these characters? These posts from people saying they skip them HAVE to be kidding, right?

Fat Dude Digs Flicks @fatdudedigsflicks.bsky.social · 03/04/2026
This “prologue” and “epilogue” discourse is the stupidest fucking thing. How can these idiots not comprehend that these are essential to the story? Think of it as a movie or TV show — the prologue is the cold open. In Law and Order, that cold open sets up everything you are about to read.

We really were spoiled for movies in 2025, so I can’t be mad at how things shook out. I’m just so happy all of these wonderful films exist.

I’m seriously happy for all the Sinners wins on Sunday as each one of them has an incredible story, but I’ve been locked in for a long time and MBJ’s win, speech, and general demeanor on Oscar night made me cry.

Listen, I don’t know him and maybe this is just the haze I’m in being a fan for so long and am so damned happy he got his win, but Michael B. Jordan strikes me as the kind of guy that greets everyone by name on a set or at a function and just… radiates a truly positive vibe.

Someone had an Oscar Bingo card posted and I saw a couple of options that made me go, “No way those’ll happen.” Conan said 6 - 7 and Grogu appeared. Sigh.

Watching a popular YouTuber do a MST3K-style watch of a bad movie and they didn’t get a Mulder and Scully reference. Am I really this old, or is there really this big of a pop culture disconnect between generations?

I know it’s not cool to say, especially as I get older, but I think I would like one of those. Even just one more moment like that in my life would fill my cup.

I know this isn’t the time or place for this, but just got filled with envy for a crazy intimate scene in Killer of Sheep. Two people dancing as she embraces him fully, her hands caressing his skin tenderly as they dance. There is a kiss at the end and they part ways, her longing for more.

Can’t watch it now tonight, but did see that Jurassic World: Rebirth has the dumbest opening text I have seen in awhile: “Dinosaurs have been back for 37 years. Humans have lost interest in them.” Are you fucking nuts? I still get excited when I see a squirrel. We would NOT be over dinosaurs.

Just saw someone with a Captain America profile picture make a pro-ICE, pro-Trump comment on social media. Media literacy is at an all time low. Cap would knock you the fuck out.

With everything going on in the world, it feels so lame to say, “How do I meet someone these days? I’m feeling lonely and would like to click with someone,” but alas, it’s true. Just another factor adding to my overall general mood.

TTRPG friends, Matt, our friend and community member @nurdrocks.bsky.social has been taken by ICE while his back was turned, peacefully protesting. Matt is the founder of Justice Frontline Aid that provides aid & education in the MN community. I've linked the video footage below. Do not stay silent.

Because I recently finished the book, I decided to finally watch The Leftovers on HBOMax. While I definitely find myself a little irritated with the changes from the book and the 100% increase in dog schmurdering, it’s still a good show. But man… they sure are schmurdering a lot of dogs.

I hope people protesting ICE segue into a campaign for public office. They would get my vote, especially if their campaign was established on the foundation of prosecuting these violent, fascist fucks. Many of our leaders aren’t doing shit and are remaining silent. I want people committed to action

Does anyone use XBOX Cloud Gaming? I can’t really afford a video game system right now, and my desire to game comes in waves. Is this worth it? I just need a controller and a subscription and I can play on my iPad. I’m all about that life if people say it’s good!
