I feel like we have the opportunity to turn David Lynch's quote into this moment's "Keep Calm and Carry On" and it's a far better rallying cry too.

With more films being in Public Domain and able to be uploaded to YouTube, I really wish that more YouTubers did a Movie Host (think Elviria) Channel where they give some insight to the films.

Word of the Day is ‘catchfart’ (17th century): an obsequious individual who sucks up to the boss and always follows the political wind.

Just got reminded of the time during COVID when we started WFH and my friend pranked me on 200+ person call saying my camera was on
But I'd just done a home workout out and was topless so I ducked down beneath my desk the entire call because I was paranoid it was on (it wasn't)

Just seen this clip of the Labour councillor going to the shitter during a meeting with his camera still on. Lovely stuff.

Incredibly interesting film. You can really tell there's a leftist perspective and criticism of capitalism in this film.
Especially as the entire film is about a truck of apples that results in so much drama!
I'm keen on watching and analysing more 'film gris'

![Films gris offer a leftist criticism[3] of society in general, and of capitalism in particular. They typically examine such themes as the psychological damages of class, the false promises of middle class happiness, and the pitfalls of materialism.[4] The politically-active John Garfield was frequently cast by producing partner Bob Roberts as the leading actor in this sub-genre.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:giehsar4ms6h5p7djivimpor/bafkreiakiafj52wdvpvgv3wqzvcaps7bfsmzpgnrstlbtb2d5f6etbozqq@jpeg)

Teesside Live taking that Bella Culley to some random house to do a "coming home" Photoshop in the middle of the night is massively irresponsible. What were they thinking?

Mamdani's speech is incredible. It's the way he builds up the working class of New York while attacking the far right at the same time.
He makes the actual people feel bigger and better than those win power

I know British politics is very bread and butter compared to US politics but we definitely need more energy like Zohran Mamdani
