@lorimajewski.bsky.social A GWAR reference so early in the morning! It could only be April 1, lol!! I went to high school with the bass player for GWAR (formerly with the band Rigor Mortis). I can only imagine how that interview went!!

@sluggodoug.bsky.social My pick for a Lynch film is a tie between Mulholland Drive and Blue Velvet. Lynch mastered writing texture into his movies…clearly his superpower. Both these movies make me feel the scenes. Very powerful, often disturbing yet undeniably brilliant.

My one wish for the inauguration is that there is a gift bag under the seats of Bezos, Zuck, Elon etc, with a single, embroidered , padded knee pad
Need to protect themselves when they are on bended knee, kissing the ring 🤷😆

What’s the difference between a gov controlling an algorithm, silently eliminating reach for things it doesn’t like, vs the same gov using its power, to demand that the platform remove the things it doesn’t like.?

@sluggodoug.bsky.social Atomic Blonde (2017) popped up on my Amazon suggestions and while not exactly a film made in the 80s, it sure does feel like the 80s. Cold War Berlin, punks roaming the streets and an absolutely killer First Wave soundtrack!! Oh…and Charlize Theron 🐈

@sluggodoug.bsky.social Lots of 12” 45s whenever and wherever I could get my hands on them! THE record store in my hometown of Arlington, TX was Fantasia Records where I found gems like these!
Recreated my dream 70s-80s system to spin them still today.
