More than 100,000 children have been separated from their parents during the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown, a new analysis by the Brookings Institution suggests. Roughly three-quarters of those children are likely U.S. citizens. nyti.ms/42CBGKt

Filmmaker Ildikó Enyedi discusses her film which investigates the ever-evolving relationship between a botanical garden and the humans who spend time there across the centuries in a conversation with Arun A.K.

This is as much about Bluesky as it is about Threads, and the outlook is not good. https://apptopia.com/en/insights/threads-is-bleeding-users/

Nobel lectures are a minor art form, and Krasznahorkai is the master among masters. So happy this is now in book form by @ndbooks.bsky.social www.ndbooks.com/book/enough-...

What could go wrong

The 100 restaurants we can’t go to now because the sheep will be lined up out the door.

A quiet and beautiful film, and I particularly appreciated: To distinguish the time periods cinematographer Pálos shot them in 3 formats: - 1908 German Empire segment filmed in b&w 35mm film - 1972 West Germany segment filmed in 16 mm film - 2020 Germany segment filmed digitally 📽️

Seeing Chungking Express again tomorrow as part of "THE GRANDMASTER: TONY LEUNG" at @filmlinc.bsky.social Probably fifth or sixth time seeing it, second in a theater. It's such an odd film and so very oddly compelling. #wongkarwai #tonyleung 📽️

I DISSENT BECAUSE CONGRESS ELECTED OTHERWISE I DISSENT BECAUSE THE COURT BETRAYS ITS DUTY TO FAITHFULLY IMPLEMENT THE GREAT STATUTE CONGRESS WROTE I DISSENT BECAUSE THE COURT'S DECISION WILL SET BACK THE FOUNDATIONAL RIGHT CONGRESS GRANTED OF RACIAL EQUALITY IN ELECTORAL OPPORTUNITY I DISSENT

So sweet to be included in such excellent company! ❤️🙏🏻

📽️ Movie night pairing: capitalism weary "No Other Choice" and the wealth fetishizing "Devil Wears Prada 2" "No Other Choice" is brilliant, though I'd guess that both films achieve what they set out to do and DWP2 at least has great people in it.

“SOME Fans” Elon Musk’s near-daily online posts about race are turning off some fans

Sirāt is the movie that has really infected my brain, out of all the greats of the past year. You really need to see it in a theater or good sound system though. 📽️

We're heading into our learning zone this week where Álvaro Alberto @film.fiasco puts #ilfordHP5 through it's paces to find out just how wide that exposure latitude really is. https://www.ilfordphoto.com/d-r-a-2-testing-hp5-exposure-latitude/

Of course they are concentration camps. And @anatosaurus.bsky.social is right that once you accept the euphemism you are halfway to normalizing the thing.

“Riddling Heart” is a perfect description here.

“Riddling Heart” is a perfect description here.

🎬 Hegseth copied Tarantino who copied “Chiba the Bodyguard” Tarantino 'borrowed' the source material of the "Pulp Fiction" monologue that Hegseth delivered at a Pentagon prayer service Tarantino's words essentially came from “The Bodyguard”, a 1973 Sonny Chiba karate flick 🥋

The Youtube Algo doing its thing at the end of the new Massive Attack/Tom Waits video “Boots on the Ground”

The intensity… Film created by Massive Attack (working with US photo artist thefinaleye)…comes in the aftermath of the largest public protests in American history - focused on opposition to ICE raids, the militarisation of domestic forces, and state authoritarianism.

The old aphorism about how long it takes an aircraft carrier to turn around might be why the nation seems relatively stable...the full impact is yet to come...it will start taking on water or listing badly or hit an iceberg, or perhaps the iceberg has been there all along...Donald Trump.

“Anthropic had the ability to hack into basically anything, in a situation in which no one would have known such a thing was even possible, and wouldn’t be looking.They made the decision to give up that power and start Project Glasswing. They want to take The Ring to Mordor. “

Ron Howard has made a film about the #photographer Richard Avedon. Oddly, doesn't seem like much info about it, other than it premiering at Cannes www.festival-cannes.com/en/press/pre... www.imdb.com/title/tt4159... #photography

"The Invite" looks good. Maybe an updated Carnage, though that was great. 📽️

Went to the Center for #Photography in Woodstock last weekend to see Ocean Vuong's exhibition as well as Nona Faustine's. Both were wonderful in their own way.

Oh how I love the sweet sounds of spring, the gentle hum of the environment being destroyed by gas-powered lawn tools.

This is an actual post. This is not funny. This is beyond desperate. This is a deeply unwell man who doesn’t belong anywhere near the levers of power. Every member of his cabinet and Congress is complicit in not demanding his removal now.

hmm

Going to two of these. Double feature with: Silent Friend (Q&A with Ildikó Enyedi and Tony Leung!), and Chungking Express (how many times does one need to see this, I don't know, but I lost count). 📽️

This quote from Apollo 14 astronaut Edgar Mitchell has been in my head the last few days

What a wonderful lineup! 📽️

Wow, what an interesting/outspoken #photographer! If you didn’t know (like me), Oliviero Toscani is known mostly for the Benetton campaigns, but his career is basically one of bravado and great talent. www.thedarkroomrumour.com/en/film/oliv...

More Banksys please: …a quote from the artist on the matter of his anonymity. “I have no interest in ever coming out,” he once said. “I figure there are enough self-opinionated assholes trying to get their ugly little faces in front of you as it is.” www.newyorker.com/magazine/200...

Zohran Mamdani just dropped a spoof of the Smile films called "Municipal Grin."

Amused by the Republicans who are jumping ship now. So…the concentration camps (etc!) weren’t enough, but high gas prices really do it?

"This court forces you to hand over a list of the Jews" is pretty goddamn scary.

At the least, we should give them pharmaceutical names. So, instead of "Tom," it would be "Tomavisvex." We could call "Claude" "Clodrivanasty" and every time they advertise list a long set of warnings in fast-talk.

I bought three roles of #Leica Monopan 50 last August on backorder at B&H. Just delivered, and they're sold out on the site already. Been on the waiting list at a Leica store for months. Why use a film at all when it's so rare? Utterly ridiculous. I still #believinfilm, just not this film!

As an aside, I really think we need to get away from humanizing our robots with names.

This quote rang in my head as everyone around me started singing “This Little Light of Mine” today at the #nokings March. “These Hate America Rallies are where the far-left’s most violent, deranged fantasies get a microphone,” NRCC spokesperson Maureen O’Toole said.

Today's the day. America has no king. Come out and stand together in solidarity for freedom. #NoKings Find your event: www.nokings.org

I'm in #photography agony right now, because I took some portraits in my Large Format class and I know I did a bad job but don't have time to develop for a few days to confirm. #believeinfilm
