Ana Ng was the first one I fell in love with, but Nightgown of the Sullen Moon will forever make me happy and bop around, so marking it as my favorite. youtu.be/a5IuGW2kt1Q?...

A movie that takes place where I’m from? Bowfinger has a scene that’s on the same street (10 blocks away) as my childhood home. But Cinemapper says that it was closer to the filming location of The Godfather. Given it’s the Paramount lot, I would imagine it’s not the only.

We built a little empire Out of some crazy garbage Called the blood of the exploited working class Now they’ve overcome their shyness And they’re calling me your highness And the world screams Kiss me, son of God

I think I spew my unhinged lore too much but it’s been a rough week so, sure. Like = Guck Fact(tm)

I saw a joke on TV (likely an HBO thing) about advertising is work for people who could have been writers, directors or artists but decided they wanted to be able to eat instead. By 8th grade, I figured that sounded pretty good to me.

RFK jr is an insipid little pervert who shouldn't be in charge of a hot dog stand

Instead of Twitter-like fuckery, imagine if Bluesky implemented LiveJournal-style privacy controls and how next level awesome that would be.

Oh, actually, in Roberta Williams’s Psycho-themed guest bathroom. It’s at least the coolest place I’ve thrown up.

Motion sickness + migraines, I mean, where haven’t I? I have had more than 5 situations where I have been meeting with execs of a Fortune 500 company and secretly thrown up in the nearest spot I couldn’t be seen. Once 8 times in the bathroom just outside of the 250-person training I was giving.

Yeah, Steve Martin may be good at the banjo, but who has taken up the legacy of the banjoline from Eddie Peabody, king of the banjo? youtu.be/IPYfgSuiL_I?...

Repo Man (1984) Evil Dead 2 (1987) The Shining (1980) Dogs in Space (1986)

It's not a sink *hole*. It's a sink *home*

I didn't know they rebooted Dead Milkmen's "You'll Dance to Anything." Banger.

Mood.

99 Francs is basically How To Fear and Loathing in Advertising and the truest encapsulation of what ad agency life was like in the '90s and early aughts.

Imho Jackass movies are cathartic and hilarious and Jackass 2 is the gayest movie that isn't porn (as measured in amount of M4M assplay.)

I took a 70s analogue synth to a sound bath and totally forgot my phone. It ended well. Like, how things should be.

I really can't stress how important it is for progressive and leftists to contend for school, library, water, etc etc boards. Hyper local involvement in our communities where we can actually influence lives.

Escape Gay's Farm. Do crimes.

I have absolutely lost this bet. Enjoy your 14 days of turkey tetrazinni, weirdos.

There's a weird algorithm of how close you were with someone and how long ago it was when they died that governs the right time to take their birthday off your birthday reminders.

1) How do you become a politician and not understand how FOIA works? That's the one thing they *should* take you in the back room to explain. Just get a personal email, bro. Gmail is right there. How are you corrupt *and* bad at corruption? 2) Are they, like, dating?

Decorating for Christmas as a kid always involved me having to stick whole cloves into oranges and I haven't until today gone "Wait. WTF?"

The Kid (1922) is one of the many times Jackie Coogan acted the socks off everyone around him. (Every time a child actor is treated like a human being and not their parents' cash cow commodity, Jackie Coogan deserves a thanks.)

There used to be a little thing called consent

But could absolutely argue The Day The Earth Blew Up, too.

Universal Language, hands down.

Settling a bet, so please respond: Do you like leftover turkey?

The last meme I saved as my moral philosophy? Fits.

We are the daughters of the cats Alf couldn't eat

I am not sure why, but my social feed is benevolent masculinity this morning: Persian beat boxing, Slavic badass knitting, an impressive Atlanta dance troop, Japanese dad training a puppy to howl along with a toddler and my standard feed of frog care vids. I guess I need optimism too.

I know that this is 1000% better than having shingles, but getting a shingles shot is like "I get to schedule exactly when I will feel like horrible garbage and have a fever that could cook an egg on my forehead."

Boxer Santeros: "That's a funny joke."

Spite Optimism sounds like a punk zine from the '90s that includes how to make wildflower seed bombs to lob at empty city lots. And I am here for it.

I am now completely immune to the Washington Nationals. In fact, I already have no idea what sport or level they play at. Just stole the reference.

Get sports bet away from people's pockets. It's a sad, stupid lie. At least make them go somewhere to be surrounded by gambling addicts so they can understand where it ends instead of a weird fantasy of a financial panacea. Or make them sit through a 30 sec clip of Uncut Gems before every bet.

Time to enter the 21st century!

That time that KoKo and Bimbo destroyed gravity on earth.

Sorcerer (1977) dir. William Friedkin

I dunno. This version of It feels real off from Stephen King's book.

Going back to traditional values

A Star Wars droid called 501C3 that doesn't ever do anything

Nothing profound. I just love my little dudes (gender neutral).

When I was 16 or so, the aurora (not nearly as clear as y'all's pictures) made a large portion of the sky red, so my friend and I pulled over at the parking lot at White Hen and just stared, assuming we'd been nuked and were about to die. I think growing up under Reagan broke me more than lead.

The Demon-Haunted World by Carl Sagan rewrote parts of my brain around understanding. Hogfather by Terry Pratchett and Franny and Zooey by JD Salinger rewrote parts around belief. Coney Island of the Mind by Lawrence Ferlinghetti changed who I am. And Cruddy by Lynda Barry understood who I was.

When I talk about the invention of "AI" as an attempt to manifest the Infinite Money God, this is part of what I'm talking about. Private equity achieved the ability to make money without a good or service—AI is the attempt to make money without even customers or employees.

Maybe *I* don't understand what they mean by this, but...?
