The FORT90 BROADCAST SYSTEM is ON THE AIR…

As previously stated, not only is tonight's stream too hot for Twitch, I still don't have the bandwidth to fix the multistream, let alone send out the latest film club email (that I am working on tho)

The FORT90 FILM CLUB is NOW PLAYING…

kick.com/fortninetyTe...

As previously noted, the lack of simulcast is just as well cuz the flicks on tap are too hot for Twitch, and maybe also Kick?

If so & things go dark, head back to www.twitch.tv/wondervillenyc for further instructions

The fourth film is so vile & repugnant, by a director that was equally so (before his death, he was cancelled in South Korea), that my Valentine's broadcast had to be the time to show it, aka MOEBIUS; stream starts at 8:00PM EST…

Oh, I'm sorry, did corporate media (but *not* independent journalists) *again* get snookered by Trump—for the millionth time in 11 years, like Charlie Brown with Lucy and the fucking football—on the subject of a supposed strategy shift that turned out to be BS because it was promised by a sociopath?

Anyone familiar with my ill-fated return to journalism, to pay bills while jumpstarting a career in libraries/archives that I'm now entrenched in, knows how my interview with Daily Beast was like poorly written satire re: neo liberalism, so I have zero love for the outlet... but good headline is GUD

This video, specifically what the YouTuber is reacting to, is reason number 7,012,584 why I am so, so, SO glad to no longer be a journalist

I remember the pressure of having to produce attention grabbing headlines, but also having to back those words up; folks now just wholesale make shit up…
