What’s your favourite movie from every decade of your life? (Had to give this quite a bit of thought.) 1990s: Se7en 2000s: The Dark Knight 2010s: Moonlight 2020s: Aftersun

Toronto this weekend with FIFA, Jays games, Toronto Games Week and other events. 😅

@torontogamesweek.com begins tomorrow and features 50+ events, many of which are free. Excited to attend several of them, including the kickoff that includes massive projections of playable indie games. Who am I seeing at TGW? 👋
