Oh how I hate voice messages. There’s a reason I disabled voicemail for my phone. If you wanna talk, call me. Otherwise: write. And if you’re driving: don’t! I can wait.

I never started using it. It’s the cancer version of messaging.

I sometimes get weird looks from people when I tell them I refuse to use it.

Signal is the way to go.

Thousands of 130kph highway kilometers in my Polestar 2 on adaptive cruise control without a single phantom braking. You are claiming things without evidence.

As an avid Dune books reader (all of them), I think Villeneuve did the best adaptation possible. As a character, Chani is much more fleshed out in the films and Rebecca Ferguson CRUSHED it as Jessica. Oscar Isaac also was a very good Leto.

My big gripe is with Stilgar and Paul. Stilgar in the second movie was almost relegated to comic relief. Yes, he is also portrayed as a believer in the books, but it felt like a caricature in Dune Part 2.

As for Paul, I had hoped for more focus on why he actually went to drink the water of life. In the books he wanted to avoid it. But events he couldn’t foresee and put people he loved in danger pushed him over the edge. In the film I didn’t get any of that.

Still, loved both parts. Definitely worth a watch.

I admit it: I’m a lurker 99% of the time. I do partake in the up- and downvoting though.
