My publisher @intellectbooks.bsky.social must know some terrible info about the state of the world as they have brought my book Post-Catastrophe Film: Cinematic Visions in the Aftermath of Disaster forward to May 4th (may not the reason).

All of the points that define Trump's fascism in this article have been prominent throughout his first and second term. It was and has always has been fascism. Good for The Atlantic for calling it, but, it could have been called years ago.

Yes, It’s Fascism
Until recently, I thought it a term best avoided. But now, the resemblances are too many and too strong to deny.

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carny's speech at the WEF is getting a lot of attention. And rightly so. It is measured, pragmatic, and realistic. It's not good news. Liberalism is over. Maybe always a lie. I guess this marks (Mark's) the real 'end of history.'

Interesting. My 2016 book on Dennis Hopper which was published by Amsterdam Uni Press is now, after an acquisition last year which I didn't hear about, published by Routledge. Its's cool. It means both Hopper books are now under the same umbrella. Like having two albums out on the same label.

I did my anxiety about impending war and nuclear conflict no favors by watching Miracle Mile last night. The tone shift was remarkable and the familiar faces of numerous character actors of the era was somehow reassuring.
