this extremely stupid little joke had me thinking about how good the infernal affairs movies were and I happened to be browsing criterion and they're all there!! amazing!!

just renewed grimoire.computer which I still think was a pretty cool project and will always be glad it introduced me to @Mer__edith

happy may day everyone!!
