The next time having a bad day, I’m just going to envision Tangerine Dream scoring my life, and I’ll feel better #frightclub

Ohhh. The good folks of #FrightClub are watching Thief. Make 2026 the year you see ALL the Mann films. Time is luck!

Two episodes in and these two are already my favorite characters in any GOT story. I just hope the actors didn’t get hurt when they literally fell off the page onto the screen!! #Knightofthesevenkingdoms #HBOMax

The march in Chicago has continued on past Trump Tower and is turning back south into downtown. The snow is coming down hard now. As it does, the column chants, "say it once and say it twice, we do not fuck with ICE"

Sounds like the worst seasonal novelty song imaginable

Your daily uplift from our farm: a kind child being sweet to his favorite, beloved bantam hen. He calls her “Quick chicken, tiny bird, bantam hen!”

This movie is about the old west but also directly about storytelling and culture. Highly recommended.

Everyone I follow on Bluesky is more interesting, accomplished and genuine than Melanija Knavs.

People who abandon pets to fend for themselves outside deserve to be dropped naked into the Gobi Desert. Humans can hunt, they’ll be fine.

Our wee town had a considerable anti-ICE demonstration. All ages.

is it Lwaxana Troi because she was fantastic I really hope it’s Lwaxana Troi

Just a fundamentally evil, malevolent person. Rotten to the very core.

Now I’m thinking of that episode of TWD where Beth and Daryl get separated from everyone else, and Daryl is ALL LIKE, okay I will just eat rats in the woods forever, and Beth is ALL LIKE, this is just terrible, I rather wander off and die than live like this, and she does so, and he follows her.

I thought stories were supposed to have conflict.

Marvel needs to return to the 70's era dumb Hulk. He spoke to something in all of us.

On this planet of multiple horrors, this is a small, small, infinitesimally small point. But Apple changed the color of the Pages icon from a cheerful, reassuring buff to a kind of blood-smudged orange. Whyyy.

I have a small brain the size of a large brain.

Wait are they large or small? Is this a sarcastic callback to some other headline?

A neat list. Blue Steel: Jamie Lee Curtis dealing with psycho Ron Silver. Best Seller holds up, despite that imbecile James Woods. Mulholland Falls has some memorable characters. Illtown is a very grim and surreal journey into drug use, drug-dealing and tragedy. Can’t recall Juggernaut…

Pretty much the only cyberpunk movie that remembers the punk.

It’s tedious to always have to be this conscious of discourse, but some folks just can’t badinage or persiflage very well, and must be constantly re-educated. They often wear pricey clothes or uniforms. Yes I used nouns as verbs.

When a heckler stands up and speaks, he or she may be looking at, and addressing, the politician or comic, but the intended recipient of the message — the illocution — is the audience. It’s a prolix BOO. And it works. It says, hey fucker, you don’t define this social situation, or what has value.

I love profanity, vulgarity, obscenity and especially blasphemy, but I rarely use them. I have a pal who I can make laugh by using them at the proper moment. He’s reliably shockable in this regard. Diction of course has no relevance to intelligence or morality. ACTIONS determine your ethical status.

I’m not surprised that our outcry over the kidnapping & slaughter of civilians has been met with scolding re: tone/word choice. It’s an attempt to shame, to force silence & reassert dominance, & is straight from the manipulator’s handbook. People are being killed. The word “fuck” is not the issue.

That’s right. I spend a lot of my day sniffing paper money and speculating on what caused the smells.

The cash was in a Cava bag. Now we know the real reason why so many benjamins smell like red pepper hummus.

She’s great! Always thinking. (See also, Ozark.) Thinking, thinking, thinking.

If you’re wondering if the Yglesias who wrote the movie Fearless (and also the novel) is related to the notorious cyber-Yglesias, with the buffet of ready opinions and the square glasses and the almost-beard, the answer is yes. That’s his dad.

We need AI listeners now. Humans can step out of the loop entirely.

@lynneguist.bsky.social drey? Could be a DotD? (Or we don’t even have it at all?)

Would not? But this is exactly why the YouTube was invented!

The delightful Oscar-shortlisted short film A FRIEND OF DOROTHY, written and directed by Lee Knight and starring Alistair Nwachukwu and Miriam Margolyes, is now streaming on Disney+. My brilliant friend James Dean produced it so I am entirely biased, but I do recommend it.

Great flick.

Peter Weir's WITNESS (1985) is not just a great thriller but a great love story: Ford and McGillis's wit, warmth & chemistry burn through the screen. And watching it this week the title felt like an exhortation: that we must all, for the good of all, bear witness and keep our eyes open to the truth.

I want this horrible mustard colored sweater that Kyle Gallner is wearing in The Passenger.

Samara Weaving!

William Goldman also wrote screenplays for HARPER, MISERY, MARATHON MAN and MAGIC #TCMParty #ThePrincessBride ^JW

Turturro, Buscemi AND Esposito? And crime? Get in my California eyes, New York movie. Also I want a last name that ends with a vowel.

You may know for what OBE stands, and even IBS, but what about IBE?

It’s like the people in power read dystopian novels as kids and were inspired rather than horrified.

Liz really got me thinking. Maybe I’m not doing enough? My time. My labor. My skills. I can always do more. But really: What can I do to make the lives of the parasitic owning class even cushier?

As much as I love Thomas Jane, you can skip this one. Unless of course you’re a Trenchard completist… #frightclub

#frightclub Steamy hot hang-glider action.

#NowWatching Dead End Drive-In (1986), directed by Brian Trenchard-Smith. #FrightClub #MutantFam #Horrorsky #Filmsky

#FrightClub What if you wanted to make a riff on Mad Max but only had thirty dollars and everyone was using cough syrup instead of cocaine? Still, I like that picture.

finally a good dating app

Nice clear image of this criminal scumbag’s face.
