Delighted and honored that my first piece for @reverseshot.bsky.social is an interview with Sepideh Farsi on her excellent new film PUT YOUR SOUL ON YOUR HAND AND WALK. It opens at @ifccenter.bsky.social this Friday. @kinolorber.com reverseshot.org/interviews/e...

oh my god they actually did it lmao

In July I met Armand Tufenkian, whose debut feature I saw at this year’s Cinema du Reel. It rarely left my mind in the intervening months, and I knew I had to talk to him. Our conversation spawned a meaningful friendship and this piece, published today. thisispublicparking.com/posts/poetics-…

dawg they’re live laugh loving the white house. president homegoods

“I hope every woman who has ever faced an abuser like Cuomo knows she doesn’t have to be ashamed, she doesn’t have to hide. Because we will beat these monsters. New Yorkers said “no more” to Andrew Cuomo, and that is just remarkable.” indypendent.org/2025/07/we-w...

Head in hands wondering how this could happen to me, the popular president who posted a video of myself shitting on everyone 2 weeks ago

A perfect capstone to what has been the most tone-deaf political campaign of my adult life.

for anyone understandably intimidated by getting off Spotify, here's what i did: — Tidal = music — Pocket Casts = podcasts — BorrowBox / local library = audiobooks & cost? less than £5pm on family subscription / totally free / totally free. so, morally & financially, leaving Spotify makes sense.

THREAD: been seeing some threads of anti-fascist textual sources that were overwhelmingly academic, so here's a list of non-academic, rooted in radical/revolutionary politics & community, literature on anti-fascism in the United States (and in some cases Canada), in no order whatsoever

He's talking about a cognitive test for dementia.

What's your favorite relatively recent books, authors, articles, (aesthetics, media theory, visual studies, etc) which advance or are at least adjacent to Benjamin and concepts like the"optical unconscious"?

Gun to my head: 1. Last Exit to Springfield 2. A Streetcar Named Marge 3. Cape Feare 4. Lisa's Substitute 5. Marge on the Lam

The vibe I bring to the function

I would posit that the reason so many people are shocked by the image of the White House being demolished is because it shows that Trump views it 1) entirely as his property and 2) that he doesn't really expect anybody else to live there.

video stores aren't "good," but going out and engaging with the world is good, while staying home half-watching the latest garbage the Netflix algorithm shoved at you while scrolling through your Insta feed is a form of cultural and spiritual malnourishment encouraged by corporate psychopaths

I had the honor and privilege of getting to sit down and chat with Jafar Panahi about his superb new thriller "It Was Just An Accident", handily one of the year's best films. For @screenslate.bsky.social.

Don’t let the frogwater that’s boiling us alive let you skip over this: we murdered another country’s citizens in cold blood, and when their leader objected, we called him a drug dealer and cut off aid to his country. That’s freakish.

Bombs are falling again in Gaza. Alaa is in the area where the bombing is heaviest. 45 people have been martyred. They are restarting the war with even less international attention. Please if you can support Alaa, she used what little internet she had to tell me this news and ask me to spread it

Hi, I'm the ProPublica reporter who's been tracking an unusual stat: U.S. citizens grabbed by immigration agents. I did it because the government isn’t. This is what I found.

Aftonbladet's interview with Greta Thunberg is now available in English - it raises many serious questions, not least about the Swedish govt. effectively abandoning its citizens to torture because it doesn't agree with their politics. A thundering disgrace. www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/a/25...

RELEASE (Nasser Taghvai, 1971)

yearly reminder to people insisting that we view Christopher Columbus as "a man of his time" that *the people responsible for the Spanish Inquisition* thought Columbus was out of pocket

Here's Diane Keaton at Warren Beatty's AFI tribute, talking about a perfect (no exaggeration) scene in Reds--taking the mystique out of filmmaking and then putting it right back in, in just two minutes. She was exquisite. www.youtube.com/watch?v=D_RS...

I love getting the chance to write about my favorite strand in NYFF for @journeyintocinema.bsky.social. Here are my thoughts on just a few of the showcased titles in this year's Currents.

What an absolute treasure Diane Keaton was. Her wit never tired, nor did her style.

I know not everyone is who they thought they would be under a fascist, authoritarian regime. That's okay. But it's time to do more than react and post about it. It's time to get organized—including mapping or creating lines of support and defense in your community.

The right to read is extremely circumscribed in America's prisons & even just getting books into them can be difficult. So, in honor of #BannedBooksWeek all orders from our Prison Book Program wish list will trigger a matching donation. Order here: portersquarebooks.com/wishlist/bri...

A new book from So is always cause for celebration! One of our sharpest minds and most generous champions of radically rethinking how we rhetorically frame history, identity, and resistance. Can't wait to dive into this new book!

Bray is a historian at Rutgers who received death threats after landing on Turning Points USA's Professor Watchlist. As a result, he announced he was moving to Europe. And then this happened. This kind of harassment and abuse of scholars is Charlie Kirk's legacy and it's only getting worse.

Let it never again be said that a woman with no real reporting experience who fell for a Twitter account called "Official Antifa" cannot be the head of a huge news organization

Scoop: Trump lost the legal battle over halting the offshore Revolution Wind project after Orsted, its developer, brought reams of evidence to court alleging the government was lying about military security concerns. It’s a sign truth can empower companies Trump targets. Via @heatmap.news

Me finally throwing on MINGUS AH UM for the first time in the past year.

The population of Germany before WWII was ~65 million. The current population of the United States is 340 million. Five fold more population. With 27 times the land area. They’d need more than 13,000,000 mobilised, organised goons to reach Kristallnacht levels of militancy

Madison Carstens, a transgender woman from Seattle, was attacked by six men in a transphobic hate crime on Sept 2. She suffered a ruptured eardrum - that may have permanently damaged her hearing - and a severe concussion that will keep her out of work for weeks or months. Do your thing, fam. (1/2)

Whether they're blaming vaccines and Tylenol, or selling dubious "remedies," what they're really doing is promoting the perception that families (and especially mothers) can prevent and treat Autism. And thus also the perception that people with Autism and their families don't need social support.
