It’s a shame she only reasons using her vagina.

Sigh.

Did you like it? I saw it last night. If Daniel Craig won’t play the James Bond character anymore, I take solace in knowing that he may continue as the amazing Benoit Blanc from Knives Out.

I haven’t made it to the theater yet; I’ve been out of town, sick, and busy. Maybe this weekend!
