Bugonia: holy shit

Man, this script has had my brain highjacked for months

Finished another draft of my script and feeling good

saw the trailer for Bugonia and I am hooked already. I'll have to try to find someone to go see it with me when it comes out

Finished the script last night. Rough draft version, but I'm proud of what I got
October 16, 2025 at 1:00 AM
I'm up to 6 pages now. Feeling good about the direction the script is going. Didn't write nearly as much as I wanted to, but that was largely out of my hands. Pretty eager to get this baby down while it's in my brain :>

This is an abuse of our military and obviously puts civilians at risk.
Maybe having a Fox News idiot with masculinity issues run the Defense Department wasn’t a good idea.
“Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth considered sending an elite U.S. Army strike force to Portland, Ore., to quell protests that President Donald Trump has characterized as ‘lawless mayhem,’ according to images of messages provided to the Minnesota Star Tribune.”
Trump officials discussed sending elite Army division to Portland, text messages show
A high-ranking White House official was indiscreetly texting about the Portland, Ore., planning last weekend, according to messages shared with the Minnesota Star Tribune.

Now that Bari Weiss has ascended to a powerful position at an influential network with a PR machine, I am seeing outlets that cover media like Puck and Mediaite present her as a "centrist" who might even challenge Trump.

That is such a deep and willful misreading of her oeuvre.

Rodney Taylor still needs our help!

He’s still locked in an ICE camp.

He’s still going without his new prosthetic legs.

He’s still facing deportation to Liberia.

He’s still having necessary disability accommodations ignored.

Please keep sharing his story. Public pressure works!
Help Rodney Taylor, a Disabled Double Amputee Being Held by ICE
Rodney has been in the country more than 40 years. He's in solitary confinement in Georgia, being denied disability accommodations and having his medical needs ignored. He must be released.

Dear #Bluesky, what's your favorite music video?

I personally can't pick, but right now I'm totally enraptured by the music video for Santigold's "The Keepers"

Been doing some research off and on, including listening to music, for a short film I'm working on writing and I have this particular song stuck in my head and it will not vacate the premises no matter how much I try to get it out

The Josef von Sternberg collection is on sale and I'm broke (for now). How dare real life >:(

Finally got to watch György Fehér's Szevendély. I liked the overall look, especially the chiaroscuro and how it leaned hard into noir. The performances are great as well.

Wrote about one incredible shot midway through "Sinners" that functions as its visual, musical, and thematic centerpiece. One of the best things I've seen this year: joysauce.com/the-incredib...
The incredible long-take that defines Ryan Coogler’s ‘Sinners’
Midway through his vampire western, the “Black Panther” director brings music history to life—from hip-hop, to Chinese opera.

I'd really like to see some English language YouTubers cover UFA's history because, with what very little I do know, it is very interesting
