I can't shake the feeling that we're watching Season 21 of "The Apprentice," wherein Donald Trump looks straight into the camera and says: "America, you're fired!"

Cruel insanity -- but that's the point. Blame MAGA, not Stonewall, who are simply making what updates they must make in order to ensure they may remain a national monument.

Awaiting your arrival, I straighten the sheets, I empty the garbage, I wash the dishes: All these things I do, These simple chores, Mundane but earnest Expressions of love As if to say "Please come. Stay awhile. Dirty my dishes. Fill my trashcans. Unmake my bed. My heart is yours, Yours."

In the AI-assisted future, the accomplishments of the past will become the subject of conspiracy-theory. "There's no way humans could've done that without AI," our progeny will say of bridges, of brickwork, of literature, of art.

In Neil Jordan's "The Company of Wolves" (1984), actor Steven Rea has one of the craziest werewolf-transformations I've ever seen! This is bonkers, and the head flying into the milk-pail at the end is just... 😘💯

In Neil Jordan's "The Company of Wolves" (1984), Gran (Angela Lansbury) tells her grandaughter about wolves which are "hairy on the inside." This film is marvelous, and full of richly evocative dialogue.

"Koaanisqatsi," dir by Godfrey Reggio, tells a powerful story about mankind's restless quest for power over our environment, through technology, using no dialogue -- only beautiful imagery, and music by Philip Glass. Here is one of the film's more pointed moments:

Also find me on Substack, which might end up being my preferred new social-network. Bluesky looks great, but the benefit to Substack is, they don't enforce a thought-shrinking 300-character limit.

This 300-character limit is really gonna suck. I never did much on Twitter primarily because of their strict character-limit. 300 characters is hardly enough to contain more than a pithy quip. Yikes. I mourn the lack of substance on the Internet. Character-limits nurture shallow thinking.
