Yes. A couple pics from the recent No Kings protest...

At the risk of being cliche...

Yes, folks. It's real...

Remind you of anything, Star Trek fans?

Yep!

And sometimes red. Beautiful shot, Cosmic.
Here's a shot from the lighthouse on Martha's Vineyard - the same one from Jaws (1975)...

It's a beautiful memorial. I visited it back in 2011...

When I was there a couple years ago there was a line of a couple dozen to touch the statue. Mostly women & kids. I remember thinking "This would never fly in NYC". Here's a picture of what it looked like then...

Punisher aside, there's a history of using skull imagery, somewhere. If I could just think of it...

Hey cool, yes fantastic. A bit of a mentor. I saw the Synch tour too, Hartford, CT. Here's another shot from that final reunion show...

Followed, for that handle.
Another drummer, from the last night of the reunion tour. Madison Square Garden, NYC. August 7th, 2008...

I agree with you. Trump is an amoral, degenerate, criminal sociopath. But he's also a distraction. He's not smart enough to do 10% of what he's doing. Among others, THESE are the people who are calling the shots...

September 11th again.
Two shots from my rooftop in the East Village/Lower East Side (before & after), and one from 20 years to the day later...

My favorite Wilder film. And the one where I fell in love with Shirley MacLaine. I watch it every year.

Even if they saw it that way, there's something more...
They're using him. He's given them more than any president has. All for temporary veneration (which he can't get anywhere else). And they're just getting started. Does anyone think these people aren't using him?

Yup! Saw Jaws in 1975 at the Rocky Point Drive-in when I was seven. Saw the 30th Anniversary outdoor screening at Bryant Park, NYC. And today saw the 50th Anniversary IMAX screening in Times Square. After all these years it's still my favorite movie. Here's a sloppy shot I couldn't resist taking...

Yup, as a film fan I'd agree. But in retrospect, I see it as a gift considering what was lost.

Of course, there's a 'slight' chance I might be biased.
From 2013...

Here's a couple shots of me in 2013, at the location of his last (unfinished) film, Dark Blood (20 years later). Factory Butte, Caineville, Utah. Happy Birthday, Riv.

River Phoenix - musician, actor, environmental & animal rights activist - would have been 55 years old today. After River died, I stopped eating or wearing animals. I decided that since he didn't have the chance to change the world, he could at least change me. That was over 30 years ago now.

It's a meme. Almost word for word...
