the news subtitle stayed on the screen when it went to commercial and unintentionally made this meme

first thing i looked at this morning was a post on r/hotdogs where everyone was saying they overwhelmingly prefer normal size hot dogs to quarter pound ones and i’ve never felt more alone/betrayed in my life. i thought these were my people. i was so wrong

posted a new album today. i think this one “rocks” more than other records i’ve made. im proud of the album cover too monochromecathedral.bandcamp.com/album/german...

a lot of people were forced to read the awakening too young to appreciate it. listening to erin discuss it in a contemporary context is really illuminating. makes me wish kate chopin had written more

because 12 albums is too much for me to expect anyone to consume, i’ve put together a record of all the best “songs” from the albums so far and i’m posting it for bandcamp friday

imagining all the various pope candidates lined up in their stalls like racehorses, being brushed and fed carrots, waiting for the main event

im in the process of finishing what will be the 12th record i’ve released since i started posting new music last november. i didn’t have any plan when i started but it’s been really nice to be creative without any restrictions, limitations or timelines from other people. highly recommended

it would be great if an amazon guy showed up on the senate floor and delivered a copy of infinite jest to cory booker right now

there’s not a ton of things to be happy about in the world but at least King Yellowman is still alive and performing his heart out

i don’t normally go for biopics but if god provided us with an actor who could play yellowman in a movie it would be hard to resist wanting to watch that story

best of luck to whomever has to edit the nearly 2 hour Hellraiser bts interview Luke and I filmed this morning

i’m watching Hellraiser (2022) again and i’m reminded of how much i wish the movie could have screened theatrically more. if any genre festivals can convince Hulu to let them screen it i’d be happy to come and talk or whatever, but mostly i’d just like to see it again

if there’s a single person out there who completely despises white lotus and seethes in rage every time it gets mentioned i bet it’s todd solondz

just to avoid any confusion i’m going to start writing under the pen name “Joe Nesboe” my new book “Snow: Man” is crime thriller set in switzerland

no one asked me but I think they should pick popes more like dog show winners, stream the whole thing live, have the different potential popes walk around and do tricks, show off their robes, that sort of thing

We lost a really wonderful person this week. Shannon Blanks was one of my oldest friends from film school and one of the most knowledgable and passionate film lovers I've ever known. We appreciate any help you can give gofund.me/c9e5031a

chris nolan is really stepping out of his comfort zone making a movie set in a time where guys didn't wear suits

real heads know that the holiday reese’s are always the best ones because they were made fresh for that particular occasion

just saw the first page of leaked JFK files and i’m stunned

the criterion channel’s 24/7 feed is truly the best thing to come out of the entire existence of streaming media

shout out to everyone who made quinoa for the first time after watching the inland empire dvd

he was the total artist. possibly the most fully realized creative person to ever make films. we were so lucky to have him this long

i didn’t grow up wanting to live in Los Angeles. i always had more attraction to new york but David Lynch’s vision of the city as surreal and beautiful place full of mystery was appealing enough that it won me over. it’s hard to imagine LA without him

I saw Inland Empire twice in the theater during its initial release and when they put it on DVD I played it on a loop for a week straight

when I turned 16 and got a license the first thing my friends and I did was use my car to drive to every video store in three counties so we could rent all of Twin Peaks on VHS. I also started drinking coffee (always black) Life-changing summer for sure

in high school i would use my time in the computer labs to find every interview with David Lynch that existed online and print them out

RIP David Lynch, few filmmakers will ever mean as much to me

discovering the bob ross roku channel in this airbnb is the best thing that’s happened to me today

Josh Ruben is one of the best people on the planet. No one deserves to lose their dream home, but people as kind and genuine as Josh and Lauren especially don't deserve this. Donating to a Josh Ruben GFM? NO PROBLEM. www.gofundme.com/f/show-love-...

the state/city government should raise the pay to firefighters across the board as a thank you and to make it an attractive career to other people. also do some kind of program where cops can switch to jobs as firefighters but maintain their same pay benefits or something

palm springs seems to be filling up fast but it’s a chill and surreal place to be during all of this

any person serving in elected office in California should be judged on how they handle this situation. We will not forget

whatever the fire budget was it wasn’t enough. just like the 8 hour advance warning about the storm wasn’t enough. there may not be one person to blame for all the reasons this all got so bad but there had to be a way the city, county, and state could have handled it better

having cats in a hotel room is actually pretty wonderful imo

we got our cats and drove out of LA this morning. i’m watching the news from a safe distance and hoping for the best

plans to quit vaping this week have been cancelled

not going to sleep tonight

this fire shit is getting scary af

stay safe in los angeles today. lots of downed power lines and fires in this wind

recently learning that there are yellowstone themed frozen dinners is the only thing that makes me interested in watching the show

for people who like jazz youtube is such a fucking miracle. i remember in college i had a professor who let me borrow a bootleg vhs tape of miles davis live in europe in the 70s and it was some of the only video i ever saw of that band. now anyone can watch basically anything from any era any time

maybe we should all start worshipping the drones, just to see what happens

hi posted on my substack for the first time in a long while, read for writing on ego death, compound grief, and the loss of ambition in the face of death: open.substack.com/pub/thankyou...

no one cares about this movie or talks about it anymore but every once in a while i remember how intensely and viscerally i hated the triplets of belleville the year it came out

one's relationship to cottage cheese is almost certainly an aspect of one's relationship to their mother

cottage cheese aka the most underrated food god ever created

i love looking at this

Hey it’s a @bdaviscollins.bsky.social and Luke cameo in The Night House!

i like playing individual notes more than i like playing chords

Hunter Biden’s win is a win for all chaotic black sheep kids
