THE MOVIES: Let your whole mind sag into a single durable pool of images, bristling with meaning and detail. Give that brain a rest, let your dream-levers work. 📽️
I do feel like a plastic bag sometimes, but I don't have the means to buy a novelty space flight or date a prime minister. Help?

Having what could gently be described as a challenging week.
Grateful for friends, distractions, clean water, therapy, the privileges I enjoy in this life, and my own stubborn refusal to live on anything but my own terms.

I'm pretty jaded at this point. But the Chomsky stuff still made me go "huh."

Grayson's done some incredible scholarship on a topic that goes way broader and deeper than I expected. 🧺
This one was a genuine rabbit hole, very fun to research and write. I did not expect "underwater basket weaving" to connect to basically every social issue of the mid 20th century

I’d like to apologize up front to all the liberal arts majors reading this, surely flashing back to the most annoying conversations they’ve ever had...

📽️ SALO is important (and not just "extreme cinema") because it shows that fascism is the intrusive thought that must violate every boundary of humanness—decency, autonomy, kindness, family, vulnerability—to sustain itself.
Take care of yourself if you read these Epstein files. Pasolini knew.

Catherine O'Hara's monologue at the end of For Your Consideration rearranged my psychology.
She was proof that at its best, comedy illuminates humanity in all its frailty and self-regard.

I soloed Mogh. Whew. I eventually started working on the Maliketh and Malenia fights but my brain was hitting the "Okay I proved my point and also I'm tired" button pretty hard, so I went and soloed Alecto to get Black Knife Tiche, who beat the rest of the game for me. Thanks, Ti! 🔪
I've switched to the Godskin Stitcher and soloed Adula, Ekzykes, the Falling-Star Beast, both Astels, the Fire Giant, and Morgott.
Currently working on Mogh, Rykard. On the horizon are Maliketh...and Malenia. 🌺

Soloed the Valiant Gargoyle twins after spending all day learning the move sets. Not sure who I am right now but I like her.

Beware the machinations of the evil wizard Discurso, who traps us in a stone labyrinth where we can hear each others' half-formed thoughts and then sells ad space on the maze walls while we drive each other to the brink of madness. 🧙🏼

Mads Mikkelsen's Hannibal Lecter sometimes appears in my dreams as a kind of moral arbiter, which is about as weird as it sounds.

I believe this is important to our understanding and that it's worth the viewing time—not just for the specific examples of "textbooks" and other erosions of a shared reality, but the overall picture of a childhood lost. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pcmb...

In Seattle I programmed my own little film studies degree by deep diving into things I found fascinating at my "campus library," @scarecrowvideo.bsky.social.
I'm satisfied with how far I got, but it was fun to find this old list plotting my next adventures.

The world isn't great right now, but let's take care of each other and enjoy life with each other, too. Not just scare each other.
I'm saying this directly to myself. This is what I need to hear.

What I realize about the Twitter format is that it's a blog for me. I mostly use it to read back fun things I said, and I delete things I don't need anymore. But I think I want to get back to reading chapters instead of sentences, and writing in longer forms.

I call these hangnails. I'm sorry.
Do we need a name for one of these annoying pieces you get when using literally every single paper towel roll holder? How about “tearsail”

Just took out Starscourge Radahn by poking him with a weird stick (Antspur Rapier). That felt tremendously great.
