Is Gotham Knights worth $7? I know it wasn't very well liked, but $7 is pretty cheap.

Got the results of an MRI today and they nonchalantly staye "you have two fractures in your spine, but they're too old to be what's currently causing you pain, so..." I'm sorry I have two WHAT?!

It feels like this Bricks & Minifigs thing is actually kinda important, because it's teaching a bunch of white teens that the police are a corrupt institution designed to protect rich people and not them.

Good shit:

We already know that Americans have shit insurance and spend too much money on medical bills, but I wonder if people in other countries also have to pay to park at hospitals and clinics. That shit adds up quickly. $10 I wasn't planning on spending today.

ICE Killed Lorenzo Salgado Araujo on a Houston Street yesterday. It's Using the Same Script It Always Uses. migrantinsider.com/p/ice-killed...

NEW REVIEW!! Classic Eurowestern mash-up Red Sun on 4K UHD from @arrowvideo.bsky.social:

Hell yeah everyone

RIP Tony Rayns, one of the few English-language critics who genuinely knew what they were talking about (most of the time) when it came to East Asian cinema, especially Hong Kong's.

Justice Smith, Caleb Williams, and Karl Anthony Towns starring in a movie called "Three Similar Looking Guys of Vastly Differing Size" I don't know what the plot will be, that's the writers' job.

Watching Arrow's Red Sun 4K and I'm pretty sure that this throwaway wanted poster has a picture of Tony Musante from Sergio Corbucci's The Mercenary on it. Recycled prop? #spaghettiwestern

The Apple TV Cape Fear show is soooooo trashy that I'm reluctant to recommend it, but I will say that I was not surprised to learn that the creator worked on Hannibal.

Ten years ago tonight, police fatally shot Philando Castile in front of his girlfriend and her daughter during a traffic stop near the MN State Fairgrounds. Protests occurred immediately, Summit Ave. vandalized, I-94 was taken over & people occupied space in front the Gov Residence for ~23 days.

I can't wait to be governed by an A.I. Mitch McConnell that permitted to vote from his supposed hospital bed and decides to run for reelection after all.

Kristine made what she called "gumbo skewers" and my friend grilled up a mess of veggies. Possibly the best July 4th meal I've ever had. There was also a dog.

A wonderful fan of Wizard Jail made a gif of Cravex running with gigantic scissors!

(A man awakens in tattered clothes, covered in blood, his friend standing over him) "...wha...what happened?" "You became a werewolf. A creature of the night. You ...killed so many people." "Oh my God. Did...did I look cool?"

#LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched Two for review, one (very bad movie) for the podcast, and one because I wanted to dance!

WIZARD JAIL IS BACK!! The penultimate episode of THE Visionaries Knights of the Magical Light Rewatch Podcast!! I bet you forgot we were even doing this!

When people find out I grew up in Arizona they always ask "how can you handle the winters here!?" and I always replay "the humid summers are so much worse," because they are.

Mississippi police shot and killed a 1-year-old child who was in the car with his mother. Autopsy reports reveal the child was shot through the side of the car, contradicting officers' claims that the car was heading towards them.

NEW REVIEW!! Early Jackie Chan star vehicle The Magnificent Bodyguards, in 3D from @88films.bsky.social

Had a dream that there was a prestige tv show that was basically Twin Peaks meets Ultra Q, and the premiere episode had a newborn kaiju tearing through town, dragging its massive umbilical cord through buildings.

Wizard Jail is back and you can hear the new episode on Patreon now! Otherwise, I'll have it up on Friday:

SUPER jealous of anyone who can see this:

I talked to the other straights and we're gonna let queer folks have the remainder of the year.

Guaranteed: 1) Black girls will be harassed and demanded to be tested over and over again regardless of how competitive they are. 2) Winners from public schools will be relentlessly hounded by the parents and coaches of losers at private schools, with the goal of making them quit the sport.

The ban is heinous for what it does to transgender athletes. But if you think cisgender girls and young women won’t be caught up in the fallout, too, you are woefully ignorant

Saw a guy in a Tesla throw garbage out of his window right in front of a panhandling homeless guy, then run a red light.

NEW REVIEW!! Tsui Hark's nihilistic early shocker Don't Play with Power (aka: Encounters of the Dangerous Kind) on Blu-ray from Cult Epics:

Got a little OCD tonight an updated some of my letterboxd lists. This one feels more "me" now:

1990 - Baby Blood 1991 - Silence of the Lambs 1992 - Braindead or Candyman 1993 - Return of the Living Dead 3 1994 - Cemetery Man 1995 - Day of the Beast 1996 - Scream 1997 - Perfect Blue 1998 - Bio Zombie (not a great year...) 1999 - Ravenous

Not me going to a drag event for the first time in a couple years, forgetting you're supposed to bring ones, and desperately trying to get Venmo to work on my phone!

The Terminator

15 fuckin loser do fuckin loser shit

If I was on Dropout's Smarty Pants, I'd do a presentation on the best & worst fictional characters to gain Goku's power. Given that he gains power through practice, fighting spirit, belief in himself, and near-death experiences, I think Harpo Marx would be the worst case scenario.

I've never really enjoyed Jackass, but there's a bit in one of the movies where they're in India & notice men tend to walk together arm over shoulder, so Knoxville starts walking & grabbing strangers, create a bigger & bigger line of guys walking arm over shoulder. Wish I could find a clip.

It’s funny how “reflecting pool” can have two meanings and they managed to ruin both of them.

Hell yeah, Breakaway Music Fest at Alianz Field! Bunch of raver kids in the neighborhood and I can hear untz untz from half a mile away in my apartment with the windows closed. This sounds like sarcasm, but I'm genuinely hyped.

“After several rounds of clinical trials with a control group, we can confirm that anyone marked by the imprint of suffering from Ranggnarr, The God of Mosquitos, is far more likely to be bitten by the insect deity’s loyal worshippers,” said Entomology Department Head Marcus Falwell

Can't wait for the REAL great American state fair (the Minnesota state fair).

I'm gonna miss Naz Reid.

Watching the uncut version of Nightmare on Elm Street 5 for the first time since I rented it on VHS. It still rocks and the extra gore is great. Third best in the series behind Dream Warriors and the original.

NEW REVIEW!! Classic Aussie psychological shocker Wake in Fright on 4K UHD From Arrow Video:

Literally every Somali person living in the Twin Cities has more value to society than Tom fucking Emmer.

Emmer can eat shit. Somalis cared for me when I was dying in the hospital for five weeks. They have a nice shop down the street where I eat sometimes. They've never treated me with anything but kindness and warmth.

Ruggero Deodato didn't instruct his actors to slaughter a sea turtle in Cannibal Hol... ...I don't think I'm doing this right.

Walz seems like a nice enough guy, but there's nothing he likes more than deploying in the national guard. Cops killed a guy? Deploy the guard. ICE is occupying the state? Deploy the guard. Stubbed your toe? Deploy the guard.
