Zohran Mamdani standing beside the President of the United States just said that the US is funding Israel's genocide and yet can't take care of its own unhoused children on live television. I never thought I'd see something like that in my lifetime

Autumn is not a mourning for summer. Autumn is not a fear of winter. The witch holds each season sacred, harvests joys and magics from them all.

“Every film is political. Most political of all are those that pretend not to be: entertainment movies. They are the most political films because they dismiss the possibility of change. In every frame they tell you everything's fine… a continual advertisement for things as they are.” - Wim Wenders
