There's nothing better than not knowing where a movie I'm watching is taking me — except watching it and then having so much to say and think about it for days on end. The layers are copious, the messages are uncomfortable and the observations are sobering. #Eddington #movies #film #moviemovies

Dear every politician,
I would read your emails if you actually gave some quick and important updates containing insight into your progress and positions. But the formulaic and pressure-filled donation request emails are all getting "unsubscribe" responses from me every single time.

Went for a double feature today …The Phoenetic Scheme and 28 Days Later. The verdict? Yes, I have amazing taste in movies. The diamond-in-the-rough was definitely 28 Years. I am pretty sure I’ve never cried in a “zombie movie” before. But it’s much more than that.

@mayor.lacity.gov Mayor Karen Bass keeps saying how small the footprint of affected areas actually is.
So show it with a picture.

I’m watching 2073 and it’s hard for me to believe it will actually take that long. It feels right around the corner, this imminently dystopian reality that has already begun.

“Monty Python and the Holy Grail” turns 50 so I decided to write about it, an exercise as misguided as Arthur’s search for the grail itself. And I still don’t know the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow!

Analysis | ‘Monty Python and the Holy Grail’ turns 50 but still hasn’t grown up
The movie changed comedy forever. More importantly, it made us ask: What is the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow?

Book banners cost this library over $100,000 of your tax dollars.
The library moved books to “social sections” in response to the demands of book banners based on their "extreme and malevolent view of the Bible” and violated the 1st Amendment.
The legal fees now exceed $575,000.

Yoda is Obama or Bernie, yes?? And I’d love if Buttigieg would be Luke, but I suppose the galaxy isn’t quite ready for his powers. Who will rise?
"The irony is that the Second American Revolution seeks to resurrect the tyranny the First American Revolution stamped out. 1776 was Star Wars; 2025 is The Empire Strikes Back. We need Luke to finish his training & Han Solo to thaw right quick, or we’re looking at a bleak, Darth Vader future."
Field Notes from the Second American Revolution
Trump, Musk, Bannon, Flynn, and Project 2025's Kevin Roberts are actively transforming the structure of our government. When, and how, will we fight back?
