Watching 2001 at a sold out theater at @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social, discovering how HAL is straight up pure comedy.

It’s a Wonderful Life at the Music Box as well.

Watching my kids dance in the aisles of The Oriental Theater at a showing of Stop Making Sense.
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?

Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.
It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

Art Institute membership is by far the best way to spend money if you live in Chicago. And coming here for the members' hour is the one thing I ought to do far more. Even if the Monets make me homesick

This is so f’d up—people being singled out, essentially for their race, on what is supposed to be a joyous day of their citizenship ceremony and being told they can’t proceed
“She showed up as scheduled, and when she arrived, officers were asking everyone what country they were from, and if they said a certain country, they were told to step out of line and that their oath ceremonies were canceled.”

it's how we end up talking about Sinners and Nope like they're naturally aligned, instead of talking about how Nope, Barbie, Oppenheimer, and Sinners together mark the dawn of a new age of existentialist blockbusters
black creators of various stripes are often forced into categories so as to make them legible and (i’d say) shrink the ambitions of their work.

obviously plenty of other things should have already been disqualifying but people willing to defy Trump publicly and appeal to decency as their reason for doing so both seem pretty good

Stephen Miller's message is that people from certain cultures – non-white cultures is what he means – are human poison rather than refugees looking for a better life. The history of our country shows he's wrong. The history of fascism shows he's dangerous.
