One Battle After Another is available as VOD today. I have mixed feelings about this. It's my favorite movie so far this year, but damn, it should be seen on a big screen. It deserves to be seen on a big screen. Sit really close to your TVs, people and get a great sound system.

It didn’t go far enough. It never went far enough.
Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.
So much work remains to be done.

Listening to Dropkick Murphys because apparently that's what you do when you live in MA. I'm really enjoying these guys. I like punk, love Celtic stuff, this stuff is right up my alley.
As always, a bit late (and a dollar short).

JFK’s grandson- son of Caroline is running for congress. I feel like everything in my life is coming full circle.
the words `` this has all happened before and it will happen again '' are on a black background .
Alt: the words `` this has all happened before and it will happen again '' are on a black background from Battlestar Galactica( the remake not the cheesy 80s show).

Some time, long ago, when they first invented houses, somebody looked at the place where they would build fires and decided to just call it the “fire place” and that is some seriously lazy shit right there.

Good morning. I'm mad that I missed the aurora last night due to being asleep. However, solar storms must be good for me because I slept really well.

Bruce the Cat has spent the last half hour kneading my lap frantically and now he’s finally relaxed there and I can’t get up. Please send advice.

I can tell I’m old because I find myself kind of detaching from reality. Tired of it. Tired of my brain. I’m not tired of music but that’s about it. I want to fade away gently.

Absolutely correct
American politics makes a lot more sense when you realize that the GOP is afraid of pissing off the GOP base, and the Dems are afraid of pissing off the GOP base, but neither party is afraid of pissing off the Dem base.
