TIL about the Japanese band "Bialystocks," named after Zero Mostel's Max Bialystock in "The Producers" (1967), one of the bandmember's favorite movie that he can apparently quote from memory. Incidentally, Max's surname comes from Białystok, the 10th largest city in Poland.

Keitora Gang sound off.
my personal jihad is to make a world where most people cycle places or use public transport and if you absolutely must have a car its either this or a kei truck
pickup trucks for the average person should not have been allowed to advance past this. if you need anything bigger, you should have to provide some kind of documentation showing you have the license and need for special heavy machinery, otherwise you get the 1990 toyota hilux

"Men have it so hard."
Lol what? I often feel like I'm living on Easy Mode.
"We're not allowed to show emotions."
I cried in front of my family and friends when I got overwhelmed and no one thinks lesser of me b/c I surround myself w/ good ppl.
"Can't get a gf."
Skill issue. Married for 15y.

It is with great sadness I inform you that the great Tatsuya Nakadai has died. You might remember me mentioning him frequently during Kurosawa Month when I reviewed every Kurosawa movie. Nakadai was the face of the director's later works, incl. my favorite "Ran." We will never see such talent again.

If you'd like to fall in love with Tatsuya Nakadai, here are other movies besides "Ran" that I highly recommend. He was a genius. He was a powerhouse. He could do calm and introspective. He could do psychopathic. He could do honorable and wounded. He was amazing. This one really hurts.

Terry Pratchett's "Hogfather." I never looked at the world the same way again after reading the part about Little Lies and Big Lies. It's like a semester of Existentialism in one page.
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!
tell me about a book that changed you
for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"
