I'm revisiting Top Chef S8 All-Stars and genuinely believe my boy Richard Blais would have seriously psychologically spiralled and fallen apart if he didn't win the season. And I say this as a die-hard Richie fan with a huge crush on him.

Things I love about my friends. I send them voice chats while grocery shopping, and their hearing is so attuned they recognize - and dig - the Canadian New Wave "killer flashback jams" / "dad rock/yacht rock" (to quote said friend) blaring in the background.

Today’s catcall: some guy on the street who made up a love ballad about me on the spot. I reckon it’s a titch better than hollers and gross comments.

One of these days, salespersons and randos on the street and such will stop calling me “Miss” and will instead refer to me as “ma’am.” Today is not that day.

When one of your content production jobs forces you out of your charming little habit of shooting with a full bells-and-whistles crew, to the point that you railroad your producer into playing DP and shooting b-roll w/ her personal Canon - bc, in your words, “this ish gotta look tea.”

Being a grownup means rejecting an invitation to a splashy film premiere because you have a hair appointment you can't change and hair needs to be tea, blarsrhgskhjgdfkhgfdk

Today’s catcall: I don’t think I’ve been catcalled in my parents’ town for decades. That is, until today, when some guy driving past at a stop sign blew a kiss at me with a loud, smacking kissy noise. I guess an influx of gross people will always trump a provincial housing crisis. (Pun intended.)

Product review: I’m not sure if this stuff is working or if my hair is thicker bc I now double-shampoo each wash. (Apparently scalp buildup makes you more prone to shedding.) Note: my hair isn’t thinning but I do shed a ton; moreover, I wouldn’t mind restoring the crazy ass lion’s mane of my youth.

Sometimes, writing scripts is pulling teeth. This was the case when I tried to write a funding-friendly screenplay that hit all the right indie notes. And then there are screenplays that are a joy to write - the beats practically invent themselves and all you want to do is keep working on it.

I just had a bone density test done (the proper kind with like scary machines) and my results are excellent (knock on wood). I’m trying to convince myself that it isn’t an excuse to routinely eat cake for dinner.

No I am not rocking out to the Talking Heads music blaring from the speakers at Loblaws. It’s your heat mirage, obviously.

Earlier this year, a short doc I made got accepted to the Oscar-qualifying Big Sky Documentary Film Festival - an experience for which I'm profoundly grateful. I did feel self-conscious tho, given the personal (and, I feared, self-indulgent) tone of my story amidst those legacy media-calibre films.

Today I learned that "liberal bubble" means not wanting to see nazi trolls post that people of my ethnicity are subhuman filthy feral scum who should all be deported to Brown Person Land.

Today in annoying GO Train commuter tales: grown-ass men who doomscroll loud TikTok vids without bothering to wear earbuds or headphones. (I will concede that they’re somewhat of an improvement over the snotters with disgusting hygiene I keep encountering.)

A bunch of people I know are partying it up at Veld. I on the other hand am trying to stream Jeanne Dielman, 23 Commerce Quay, 1080 Brussels, as I feel I need a Studio Ghibli break. (I don’t necessarily want one, but a respite from constantly wishing I lived in Ghibli-land might be beneficial.)

Suri P @suriparmar.bsky.social · 31/07/2026

I just got bloodwork done. It is perfect, knock on wood. This confirms that my body wants to move and needs to keep moving, uggghhh, however tedious exercising might be for me.

Suri P @suriparmar.bsky.social · 29/07/2026

Can we please stop filming & doxxing people being affectionate in public and rationalizing it as outing "cheaters"? We don't know their lives? Maybe they're in abusive or open relationships? Maybe not? Whatever's going on - it's NOBODY'S business, and, moreover it's incredibly creepy and violating.

I put my hair in fat rollers last night. I left them in for an hour and then blew out my curls into perfect beachy waves, which I smoothed w/ oil. Aaand then today, I went out (to see my GP to make sure this damn demon bug infecting me hasn’t mutated). Within a minute, the rain murdered my hard work

Suri P @suriparmar.bsky.social · 27/07/2026

Okay so I’m still wrecked from Only Yesterday, and now consider it my favourite Studio Ghibli film. It’s seemingly abt everyday ppl but sneakily clobbers you - knowing that the average person carries so much baggage and pain. Also, reconciling who we want to be as kids with who we wind up becoming.

Suri P @suriparmar.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

I watched Studio Ghibli’s Only Yesterday & can’t stop thinking about it; it hits hard. But imo, the ending downgrades it from quietly devastating & life-changing to - simply - a great movie. The soundtrack’s Hungarian & Romanian folk songs are painfully haunting - the best Ghibli music I’ve heard

Suri P @suriparmar.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

I abhor exercising. But weekly Pilates has killed my lower back and knee pain and fixed many weak core issues. Now, on top of class, I need to work out three more times a week and walk x-thousand steps a day or my ankles and hips get stiff and I feel weird and bereft and gross. So I’m never happy.

Suri P @suriparmar.bsky.social · 26/07/2026

PS - my snark in my previous post in no way discounts the immense talent of said filmmakers, who are truly the real deal

My BFF is messaging me as he watches the Evil Dead remake (aka - in my words - that movie made by those guys who went on to make that gross ass film abt that old white dude with a turkey baster - oh the notoriety, heh).

Given that my recent bout w/ COVID made me look pretty dull, zitty, and grungy, I’m happy to report that hard work and dedicated occlusive, ceramides, and hyaluronic acid toner layering have restored my complexion to a dewy, bouncy baseline. (My cushy BB cream/foundation and blush also help a ton.)

I sat near the most insufferable teenage boys on the TTC last night. They loudly used “gay” & “autistic” as insults, chatted up young women in their 20s & showed off fake IDs (the latter were annoying too - they told the boys they were “fun” 🙄), & tried to see who could yell “penis” the loudest, ugh

Pro-tip. If you wear unusual looking sunglasses, be mindful that strange men will view them as a conversation entry point and follow you down the street being weird.

I'm curious what triggered North America's ongoing obsession w/ two-decade-old popular culture/fashion. Was it George Lucas's American Graffiti? Did that film beget Happy Days? Is Ron Howard the common denominator and catalyst? He did go on to direct Cocoon, which is *kind of* a nostalgia exercise?

Day 8 of COVID. People are messaging to say that they, too, have been hit with this horrific and grossening aberration of a beast bug. Not to fear-monger, but be careful. And if you do get it (you won’t - I’m manifesting it to stay away) - just lie in bed without moving for a week.

Day four of COVID. I am still sick as a dog and quite the sad panda. I’m finding solace in hugging my BLÅHAJ IKEA shark (whom I call both Chompy and Sharkey, depending on my mood).

Toronto folks - please be on guard. Not just because of the horrible orange atmosphere and air quality that are giving Cormac McCarthy dystopian novel, but because the extreme heat and wind are conducive to bad house fires that can take down a whole neighbourhood.

I have COVID. Thankfully - & likely bc I’m so vigilant abt being vaxxed - I have no fever, runny nose, or cough. Just one hell of a sore throat, plus I’m tired af. All the same, I’m a very sad panda who feels quite sorry for myself (I’m soothing myself w/ reality TV reruns a BFF graciously provided)

At the grocery store, I chanced upon a group of exuberant men lugging a plastic kiddie pool and debating which flavoured pretzel bites to buy. I told them whatever they had planned looked really fun, whereupon they laughed and said it’s summer and to make the most of it.

I’m wearing a dress today and had an inadvertent Marilyn Monroe moment walking over a drafty subway grating. Let’s just say it was nothing like a classic Hollywood movie - the blown-up air was dirty and smelly, plus I don’t imagine I looked very graceful running away while holding my skirt in place.
