🆕NEW FLITE FRIGHT ON PATREON!🆕

This one has been in my library for nearly a year after I blind-bought it on sale, and I've got a lot of thoughts, including my revelation about Sosie Bacon, and how this movie thematically speaks to a problem we ALL need help with.

🆕NEW FLITE CHAT!🆕

Who’s really obsessed with Zack Snyder’s Instagram account? How much did Alfred Hitchcock influence Hollywood? And why do all of the aliens in older Star Trek shows speak English? All of that and more, this week on FLITE CHAT.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

Gentle reminder that in the late '50s, the U.S. government did not censor comics. Comics companies censored themselves.

Not sure why that crossed my mind today but there it is...

Back in school, I wondered how German citizens could so blindly fall in line as the Nazi regime took control. Now, after watching businesses, media, and everyday people in my own country grovel under a self-serving fool and wannabe authoritarian, I see exactly how it happened.

The biggest divide is not between “right” and “left."

It’s between democracy and oligarchy.

The billionaires who control our economy and democracy seek to divide us.

They want us to turn on each other so we don't look up and see that they have all the wealth and power.
