"Hard Cell" on Netflix is a pretty cool, fun series. Quite a fresh take on a mockumentary, and quite gutsy. Well done on Catherine Tate for creating it. She plays like 5 different characters. Crazy! #HardCell #Netflix

Been listening to Pennywise again. Been very fun and nostalgic experience. The lyrics always speaks to me. Here is one such example.

**Pennywise - We Set Fire**

"This is our last and dying gasp of the bourgeoisie
We are the cold and bitter souls of austerity
We're all thirsting for some difference
While drowning in our opulence
We're dying to survive eternally"
