    Perfect Days 2023

    ★★★★½ Watched 06 Feb 2024 17

    Having trouble staying focused lately. Staying alert, staying grateful, staying content. Just staying still and looking around. It's always an issue but the world more and more feels like it's surely impossible for anyone, not just me. It's a low-grade—often not so low—anxiety, paranoia, gloom, just kind of throw it all in and shut the blinds kind of way. There's no room for small things, no time for plain tiny pleasures.
