this is the pitch that got so many companies on board and investing in the bubble. This is the naked truth of what capitalists want: pure unhindered income once the annoyance of people needing food, shelter and healthcare is removed. They'll be able to sequester themselves away from us permanently

This is the kind of thing a rich CEO says at the beginning of a science fiction movie to establish for the audience that he is a sociopath and the villain.

If you like sad, creepy, sometimes abrasive stuff like my flick MAY, you might dig the sad, creepy, sometimes abrasive music of our band OogLaDaar.

Our band’s newest EP WHY is now available on Bandcamp and everywhere else in 2 weeks. Really proud of this bonkers little album!Check it out! oogladaar.bandcamp.com/album/why

The credits on some of the songs are hilarious. Screams of the tortured, victim… Lucky’s credit for a single lyric on “why” 🤣

I do write great lyric.

I don’t know if we’ll ever figure out what the magic sauce is for BlueSky engagement but this new album is going over really well! Really proud to be a part of this group and supremely thankful for the folks that have been listening and encouraging us! ❤️

check out my friends' band!

guys if you need some music, this is perfect. Check it out

Here’s our new OogLaDaar EP “Why”. This one has a much more bonkers mix of tones than previous releases, which makes me VERY proud. ❤️ oogladaar.bandcamp.com/album/why

Good talk with a good friend of mine. Enjoy!

New OogLaDaar EP hitting BandCamp tomorrow. 🫡

Here's my pencil artwork of Joan Crawford in the killer Strait-Jacket from 1964 🪓

Our band OogLaDaar entered the Tiny Desk contest because why not? 🤩 tinydeskcontest.npr.org/2026/browse-...

OK, that's enough of that for the night. Another commission in the books, or in this case, ON a book. Next.

Here’s one from a wayzzz back, “Slow Drift,” oil on linen, 30”x24”.

In case anyone still doesn't know, aside from being a stupidly talented filmmaker and visual artist respectively, @luckymckee.bsky.social and @vanessamckee.bsky.social have a stupidly fantastic band called OogLaDaar. Can't think of a better group for a TD show. 🙌🏻

This is so cool and the plant adds a nice little framing touch

Remember the Pee tapes? We thought that was what he was trying to cover up. We were so naive.

Ocasio gang rise up 🙌🏽🇵🇷

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

Does anyone else feel that in recent decades movies rarely depict average working people? In the 70s and 80s we had movies about struggling families, stories about people most of us could understand. Not necessarily about the struggle, but where it was an obvious factor.

Now finally reading! I should probably be reading Cannery Row since it’s referenced about 57 times in Whalefall, but I don’t have a copy and have put East of Eden off for way too long.

Great book!!

I’m really enjoying this one!

Found this when my kid and I were browsing a used bookstore yesterday.

I deleted that post because I don’t want attention anymore and it’s been a shitty fucking day.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley. Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo. Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles. Get them out!

We were outraged by Liam, but Diana is a young girl that has been in an ICE prison even longer. The wee girl still is in prison. Be loud! Share! Justice for Diana Crespo Gonzalez!

Just finished this in a waiting room and am desperately trying to keep it together in a room full of strangers. It is as heartbreaking as everyone says.

Joan incoming

He’s so dang cute

The President shit himself on live TV. Melania bombed. The Epstein files are sending shockwaves through the Alt Right. Liam and his dad are back home. A Texas district that was DEEP red for 35 years flipped blue. Pretti's killers have been identified. Small wins, but you can feel the change coming.

Even if it doesn’t end up qualifying I WILL finish my painting tonight (Because if I don’t finish it today I never will)

Heed my words: If you're doing it right, film criticism is a full-contact sport. Let the professionals take this cinematic concussion for you. It's not worth it, I swear. My review of MELANIA, the feature film version of that creepy obsessive wedding video from LOVE ACTUALLY, is at @thewrap.com.

Just a reminder, the greatest living American historian filmmaker, Ken Burns, released a 720 min exploration of every facet of the American revolution using zero generative AI and paying for all of its assets instead of cobbling it from stolen data, then he gave it away for free on PBS this year.

I cannot tell you how much doubt was consistently directed at the Gaza Health Ministry’s casualty numbers and how much pressure was put on news organizations to couch those numbers as unreliable. Biden himself said they were fabricated! www.haaretz.com/israel-news/...

Was so honored to get an early peek at Daniel’s wonderful new book. Get it as soon as you can!!!

I love @luckymckee.bsky.social. And he loves Partially Devoured! Or at least he’s doing a good job pretending!

My friend @numbersys.bsky.social printed it for me! The thing is amazing. Sounds terrifying and LOUD.
