  @nerdseyeview@screenwriting.space Pam, heads up that I'm unable to follow the account, as it bounces me back to this one. Tried to follow you via other buttons but says the action is not allowed. Not sure what you need to do as I'm no expert!

  Lately we’ve been in a phase of watching easy, entertaining action films—last two we liked were Edge of Tomorrow and Dungeons and Dragons: Honor Among Thieves. Would love more recommendations, old and new, especially ones that aren’t like 3 hours long! #Movies #Film

  @charles222a203 T2 and True Lies are my faves. Embarrassed to say I’ve actually not watched Point Break. Thx!

  Where have people in the #EastBay successfully gotten a new #COVID booster? Kaiser website says "early October" and there's no ability to schedule appts either. Walgreens refused my Kaiser insurance. CVS locations have no appts.

  @webuiltthiscity Thanks! I might try another Walgreens. I told one in Berkeley that I'd pay out of pocket but they told me to leave and wait until Kaiser offered it.

  "I was looking to understand something greater: what any of us are looking for when we visit places we’ve only ever seen on screen, and how the desire to go to such a place might be sharpened in grief. I pushed open the door and stepped inside."
