Notes

Watched The Innocents (1961)
We decided to watch The Innocents (1961) for halloween evening film watch last night. A bit of a left field one, but is considered one of the top horror films. I thought it was okay. Good creepy vibes throughout and lots of abiguity. I was surprised when the ending kicked in. I guess I was…

My website (this website) does not track you in any way. I have even disabled access logging in my server config. Until today I did use Matomo, which was self-hosted. But then I came to the conclusion that I just don’t need it. At the same time I both care about the people who visit…
