white lotus season 2

Season 2 of this acclaimed show had a few great characters and was entertaining in a much more over the top way, which I'm sure helped make it very popular but to me kind of ruined the lovely storytelling and subtlety of the original - the writing just took too many easy shortcuts.

Seeing Like a State by James C. Scott

By Leli
This historical treatise has a lot of notoriety but I found it unnecessarily dense, and ultimately flawed, in that its focus on states and state power ignores a related discussion of capitalist power, such that altho there is a useful perspective to glean here about how a drive for social legibility can transform a society, I wouldn't recommend the book overall.

I Saw The TV Glow (2024)

By Leli
Creepy slow and artsy, well-acted altho some of the monologues and artistic choices tried a little too hard, overall just different  which I really appreciated, deep and heartfelt and not afraid of some discomfort.
