Recently watched The Draughtman’s Contract (1982) and I’m so struck by its Barry Lyndon-ass beauty and bits of total weirdness, a well-constructed murder mystery nestled inside exaggerated 17th century life on a British estate. Big recommend! (Also my first Peter Greenaway.)

Very Oz-like. Pay no attention to the human-robot hybrid behind the curtain.

If Roy Batty was British.

"I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Dropped toast landing butter-side-up, trains arriving on time, Arsenal beating Real Madrid 3-0.

All those moments will be lost in time, like Boris Johnson's WhatsApps. Time to die."

I love (hate) how Legal Thinkers are complaining about everything being too woke when three years ago I had to sue the state of Illinois to get judges to stop demanding to see my genitals and threatening to hold me in contempt for "perpetrating a fraud upon the court" by saying that I am a woman

They were careless people, Tom and Daisy- they smashed up things and creatures and then retreated back into their money or their vast carelessness or whatever it was that kept them together, and let other people clean up the mess they had made.

After massive public backlash, the Social Security Administration is rolling back its disastrous cuts to phone services.

This is a huge victory for the public against DOGE's rampage.

Keep up the fight.

Autism didn’t make them do it. Mental illness didn’t, either. This personal piece from The Big Picture cuts through the excuses and names the real issue: some people are just hateful, and we need to stop giving them cover.
Neither Neurodivergence Nor Mental Illness Made Them Bigots—They're Just Awful People
It's hard to admit your heroes are jerks, but the mentally ill and neurodivergent shouldn't be collateral damage.
