Art is resistance. Write. Meditate. Pray. Read. Journal. Listen to music. Play music. Draw. Paint. Knit. Sew. Run. Lift weights. Take a cooking class. Stretch. Go for a walk. Yoga. Tai chi. Whatever. Don’t let pessimism and cynicism consume you. Over and out for now.

Donald Trump signed an executive order eliminating tariffs on dozens of foodstuffs. Amid recent voter concerns about inflation, Trump had been scrambling to make his own affordability pitches, @johncassidysays.bsky.social writes. https://newyorkermag.visitlink.me/6WV05C
Donald Trump Can’t Dodge the Costly K-Shaped Economy
After insisting for months that his tariffs weren’t raising prices, the President has virtually admitted the opposite by moving to scrap the duties on beef, coffee, and other foodstuffs.

Great article.
Reports of Hollywood's AI Apocalypse Have Been Greatly Exaggerated. Studio execs and major media outlets claim that AI is "inevitable" and poised to take over film and TV. The reality is much different.

Yes, David and Millie were talked to. Make it look like you’ve made amends. The ratings for this last season depends on you two making nice.

People’s hate for the team that won is funny.
I agree they shouldn’t go. They shouldn’t have last year. You can call us fans whatever. Even if the owners were different you’re still just a salty fan because your own team didn’t even make it half as far as the Blue Jays.

So much stems from no one ever teaching what socialism and communism actually are. They stopped at “they’re evil, and you can’t own anything.” Makes it really easy to slap that label on whatever you want. (And miss slapping it on when the government demands ownership of national industry.)

I need more Betty Gilpin in my life. Her IMDb needs more films. Hire her.
And her writing just elevates her even more. She’s a badass. Read her stuff.
“Discovered” her earlier this year. I need more, please.
The Hunt, not for everyone but I think it’s fucking brilliant. #FilmSky

A ★★★★ review of The Hunt (2020)
If been putting this off ever since I “discovered” Betty Gilpin earlier this year. She’s an excellent writer, by the way. The history of its release sucks because it was released March 13, 2020, delay...

My annual complaint about turning back the clock an hour isn’t that it gets dark so early, it’s that people complain about it every year like they haven’t been alive for the previous x amount of years. How old are you? Is this your first one? Deal with it. It’s the least of our problems as adults.
