Criterion — founded in 1984 — is courting a "new audience of cinephiles” via streaming.
And it’s working.
Criterion Channel “has grown steadily” — and created a "low-churn subscriber base” that has "eclipsed the company’s physical media business”.

They blame pollution but cut the EPA and clean air and water regulations. They blame poor nutrition but cut SNAP and programs to bring local produce to schools. They blame increased screen time while destroying public infrastructure that connects people. All while they take millions off healthcare.
The White House blamed exposure to environmental toxins, poor nutrition and increased screen time for a decline in Americans’ life expectancy Thursday.
White House says food, toxins among reasons for poor U.S. health

We need indie presses. Certainly more than we need government funds to be spent “foster[ing] AI competency” or “empower[ing] houses of worship to serve communities,” whatever that means.
Along with many other nonprofit arts organizations, we learned last night that our grant from the National Endowment for the Arts—$40,000 toward the publication of our books in 2025—has been terminated. While this news was not unexpected, its message was chilling.

Sen. Cory Booker just entered hour 16 of his marathon magical girl transformation on the Senate floor. He has spent all night slowly spinning around in a field of twinkling stars and striking cool fashion poses. So far he has materialized one long opera glove and a silver tiara with topaz inlay.
