Movie - X-Men: Dark Phoenix (2019) [/] During a rescue of a failed space shuttle mission Jean Grey/Phoenix (Sophie Turner) absorbs a mysterious energy that vastly increases her powers which causes her to realize that Professor Xavier (James McAvoy) has been lying about how she came to his school. She searches for answers, hooks up with the alien Vuk (Jessica Chastain) who really wants to steal the Phoenix powers, and battles the X-Men and Magneto (Michael Fassbender)... Like the rest of the current incarnation of the films, Dark Phoenix lacks something. Even though it has lots of CGI and a big story it is not as impressive as other big budget blockbuster type movies.
Trader Joe's Channa Masala [/] Chickpeas in an onion and tomato sauce. I don't like chickpeas (though made into paste like humus they're not bad) but in this package the sauce makes it edible with some rice.
Apple Arcade - Down in Bermuda (2019) [-] Yak & Co. followed up the excellent Agent A with a less stellar puzzle game. It's isometric view, though you can pinch to zoom in and use two fingers to rotate. There are some puzzles but I found it tedious panning/rotating the view and tapping everything in order to find all the hidden orbs. I quickly tired of it.
