Hey @bam-bam.bsky.social , I just came on here for the first time in ages as I’m in Chicago and walked by a massive queue and was like what are they here for? I could see Juno inside posing with guests! Oh, and I miss you!

The Emory Cinematheque is perhaps the best thing about Atlanta that does such an exceptionally poor job of promoting itself. They just screened “Man With A Movie Camera” Wednesday night which I wish I could have known ahead of time - “Holy Motors” by Leos Carax this Wed though, and free.

Sometimes you have to undergo a self-assessment to understand the difference between your ideals and your actions. So it will be for me today, to determine if I have what it takes to see a showing of “The Thing” at 9:30pm tonight without falling asleep at some point.

Just got an email from LinkedIn suggesting I follow Ryan Reynolds, Vivek Ramaswamy, Barack Obama, and/or Tim Tebow (in that order). Almost refreshing to find a social media platform that apparently has no surveillance skills whatsoever.

“[ding] Unplowed road reported ahead” - may that be the first time and last time I ever hear the Google maps lady say that to me. Home in double the regular time but less than an act of “The Brutalist” and you won’t see me on national news at least.

It was not my greatest meditation experience - my daughter soundtracked it with some toenail-clipping in an adjacent room - but I did it for David Lynch…and for myself. 10 minutes went by faster than I thought. We need something positive to remember this day!

I diligently kept pumping air in my tires after running over a nail last night, and got them all replaced this morning because they needed it. I then went to a hardware store to buy a set of precision screwdrivers on my way home. This concludes all of my masculine activities for the year 2025.

My mini-marathon is concluding and I think this is how I am going - infinitesimally small gaps between the top 6!

Season 1 (including pilot)
Mulholland Drive

Season 3

Lost Highway
Fire Walk With Me

Inland Empire

Dune

Just booked a trip to Chicago for the beginning of May in order to see R. Crumb on his book tour - if anyone knows any Sun Ra tourism sites give me a planetary hookup!

About to head out to see “The Brutalist” at the Tara, a decision made solely because I like Brutalism and I saw architecture mentioned in the one line synopsis I chanced upon so it’s at least related somehow - will this be an epic misread of “Naked Lunch” proportions? Check back in 6 hours.

Woke up this morning to see a former coworker had sent me a linked-in request at 2am last night. If you wonder who you should avoid in life, it’s probably people on linked-in at 2am on a Friday night.

Why is David Lynch so mourned? He was a conduit - for a certain strain of people, he was as far out as their tastes would get. For others, he was the passageway into worlds unknown where people’s whole identities could have been formed through his influence. It’s an appropriately panoramic scope.
