Guided
I tried two tricks. I used one of them- turning the picture upside down- for the last picture. This time I added an 8×6 grid to give me 48 squares to keep me on track. Much less stretchy. I guess it’s better than tracing.

The main thing I learned: I have hairy ears.
Now I need to figure out how to do it right side up without the grid.

Hey, did you know you look like…
Jordan Morris is a writer and the co-host of the Jordan Jesse Go! podcast. This week he was complaining about how often people say to him “Hey, you look like Zach Galifianakis!” And he kinda does, not in a “you might get confused enough to ask him about working on Baskets” way, but in a “if they were casting a movie he could reasonably be picked as a Zach Galifianakis type” way.

Movie Pass Adventures/Walk of Fame Movies: The Plague and Destry Rides again with Joe Pasternak

The Plague

I’m sure no one would call this movie a fun watch, but it was incredibly rough as a middle school teacher to watch and recognize the bullying and shaming that happens in this movie. I seriously considered walking out, and I never walk out of movies.
I don’t mean that this is a poorly made film. It’s very well made, and the performances all feel real- but more than a little PTSD triggering for me.
Destry Rides Again

Jimmy Stewart at his Jimmy Stewartest. A very enjoyable ride. Also: I’d never seen this before, so I had no idea how much Madeline Kahn in Blazing Saddles was channeling Marlene Dietrich’s Frenchy. Mel Brooks got some very delayed laughter out of me.
