My letter to HBO re: Mad Men, FWIW:
Like many of your viewers, I am disappointed by the restoration of Mad Men, but not for the reasons that are making headlines. While the VFX goofs are bad, at least they are limited to select scenes. The more egregious error is how heavily compressed the show is.

Come senators, congressmen
Please heed the call
Don’t stand in the doorway
Don’t block up the hall
For he that gets hurt
Will be he who has stalled
There’s a battle outside and it is ragin’
It’ll soon shake your windows and rattle your walls
For the times they are a-changin’
Please heed the call
Don’t stand in the doorway
Don’t block up the hall
For he that gets hurt

Hey @mmflint.bsky.social, if you're in NYC on 2/27, I highly recommend seeing Blum: Masters of Their Own Destiny at Doc Fortnight, a pro labor film about Emerik Blum who founded Energoinvest, a worker self-managed engineering company based in the former Yugoslavia. www.moma.org/calendar/eve...

Sea otters have a superpower—an insatiable appetite! 🦦 These fluffy foodies are keystone species, keeping kelp forests healthy by munching on sea urchins. See how their endless hunger helps balance ocean ecosystems in the latest episode of Word of the Bay! mbayaq.co/4dljOXu

It’s no surprise that Trump’s Supreme Court would welcome the opportunity to approve mass arrests of people simply for being homeless. What’s surprising is that our Governor, Mayor, and City Attorney would request the Supreme Court hear this in the first place.
