I’m sorry but Bluesky did like 1% at most of the work it was mostly the excellent canvassing operation so thank you NYC DSA

My coverage of TWIN PEAKS continues with Season 3, Episode 13. I started the essay with Ed and Norma and their doomed romance. Lynch understood that for people to really feel love there had to be distance, and for these two, there's been twenty-five years of it.

Funniest detail to me re: Thom Yorke's weird relationship to Israel is that it's the first place Creep really took off so Israel kinda launched Radiohead's career. Israeli music fans could not get enough of a song that asks "what the hell am I doing here" and answers with "I don't belong here."

It is clear that Trump will never be held accountable for a single crime he has committed and his cult will support him unquestionably.

i dunno, in a year where two of the director nominees are Justine Triet and Jonathan Glazer, it feels weird being annoyed that Greta Gerwig didn't get what would have been a very deserving nomination
it's like back when the Academy would snub Spielberg for like Fellini... we gonna be mad?

"Why wasn't the film this?" is a really common criticism of, like, every movie and always has been, but I encourage you to look past it to figure out what the movie is doing and engage with that. You don't have to like it! You just can't assume you've defeated the film in intellectual combat.

As a non-fan of the first three seasons of TRUE DETECTIVE, I couldn't get enough of the new season, subtitled NIGHT COUNTRY. It's no shock that Jodie Foster is compulsively watchable; what a wonderful surprise that newcomer Kali Reis is just as magnetic. www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
