Friday Favorites

July 13, 2018 By AJ Leave a Comment

Welcome “Friday Favorites” devotees and a happy Friday to you from Dante’s Inferno. It is HOT-HOT-HOT in Los Angeles. I know everyone lives here for the weather, among other things, but this is unreasonable and I am not about it. Nor is my dog. Or any rational human being.

It is worth noting that as I wrote this post, I was watching W. Kamau Bell’s Netflix special and it is BRILLIANT. I think listening to him speak made me smarter. So get on that.

Friday Favorites

WHAT I READ

  • Saw that Spotify is opening a regional HQ here in Los Angeles, and that’s pretty cool.
  • Honestly, the more I read about Sacha Baron Cohen’s new series, the more I want to watch it. I was actually quite adverse to it previously.
  • I started another new book called Providence and it’s so heartbreaking and lovely so far. I always fear picking it up and I have trouble putting it down.
  • I was oddly fascinated by this piece about “Dallas” and “Step by Step” star Patrick Duffy’s theater and upscale bar. Who knew?

OTHER BLOGGERS & INFLUENCERS

  • Lindsay went to IdeaWorld — it looks like fun, right?!
  • My friend Alyssa got her sleeve surgery date and I’m so excited for her! You can follow her journey on her blog.
  • Jessica tries to be all tough but check her out being a sweet softy….
  • I really enjoyed Oceans 8 but even more so after reading this analysis of it.

PR & SOCIAL MEDIA

  • A little PR 101 for y’all – know your audience. I cannot stress this enough.
  • IHOb is back to regular ol’ IHOP and the world breathed a collective sigh of relief. Or they ceased caring one way or the other because no one was going there for burger, amiright???

  • Twitter got savage about fake accounts, which is a good thing, but it’s gonna disappoint some of y’all who’ve been paying for your followers. Don’t avoid eye contact — I know who you are.
  • Instagram added an “AMA” (ask me anything) type feature and people are using the hell out of it already. CALM DOWN.
  • Mashable has called out how awesome Britney Spears’ Instagram is. They are not wrong. She’s a delight.

EARLIER THIS WEEK

  • So…. I was interviewed. I’m not crazy about the piece, to be candid, however the feedback has been flattering and you may read it if you wish. 😉
  • I tortured myself by trying to watch Justice League. It’s so, so bad. Affleck is terrible. This version of The Flash? Terrible. Everyone is terrible. As such, I sought out the Honest Trailer for the film, which I enjoyed a zillion times more than the movie.

  • I saw a beautiful independent film called Hearts Beat Loud that I can’t recommend enough. I am also addicted to its soundtrack.

VIDEO SPOTLIGHT

  • Obviously this movie was made for me:

  • As was Christopher Robin. Did you know I’m a ginormous Tigger fan? Any chance I get to see him, I’m in. And this looks adorable:

And if I look flushed and awkward it’s because I realized as this was happening that the man across the table taking the photo was JOHN LANDIS (Animal House is my favorite comedy EVER). 😭😭😭 So I met TWO ICONS today.

A most unexpected experience this week when I went A most unexpected experience this week when I went to get a massage. In the waiting area, there were two journals on a table and I opened them to find that throughout the last few years (they date back to 2018 but there’s a huge gap of time in 2020-2021), women from all walks of life have been jotting down notes and letters in these journals about a myriad of things. Everything from miscarriages and failed marriages to the joys of friendship and self care advice. I might have spent more time reading those journals than I actually did on the massage table. They’re quite beautiful. #choosehappiness
