RIP Patrick Stewart. What an actor. I still can’t believe he agreed to do this scene. And he didn’t even mind when I ruined every take. Legend.

Very sad to hear of Patrick Stewart's death. A great actor, and a truly inspiring life story. He played a lot of popular parts, but the one I really remember him for is "Green Room", playing against type as a Nazi skinhead.

The US is the only country in the world where people believe government-funded healthcare won’t work because people with government-funded healthcare told them so.

basically the campaign was driven by the upper 1% wanting to lower taxes; aligned with "culture wars" propaganda via rightwing media. it seems to have worked dazzlingly well: MAGAs are more terrified of "trans" persons (barely 1% of the population) than of ICE, losing Medicare & even Social Security, or toxins in their drinking water.

So how did it happen that the non-illiterate 2/3 allowed the illiterate 1/3 to take the presidency, congress and judiciary from them?

Follow the money: Musk keeps calling Hitler a "socialist" in an effort to discredit socialist (or social democrat policies) because he doesn't want to pay more tax. It's very simple.

My thoughts exactly. I mean, how much more does he want? It's pathological.

The US will never become Communist. It just won't happen, and nor should it. But it might adopt a fairer, more compassionate form of capitalism. That would be a good move.

MULHOLLAND DRIVE turns 25 today. David Lynch originally made it as a TV pilot, but ABC rejected it. French studio Canal+ funded additional filming, allowing Lynch to transform the abandoned project into a feature film.

As a homicide detective, I can say with all of my being that there is no lesson learned in seeing someone die. But there is a price. And that price is your peace. Your decency. And the soul of our society. We don’t have to be this way, this fake tough but real ugly way. Stop

When I look up a film on Wikipedia, I wish it would have a big banner saying YOU'VE ALREADY SEEN THIS ONE, so I don't tell my wife, "I've got a great movie for this evening!"

Guillermo del Toro: “Be very angry about how the world is being fucked, how your craft is being pulled away from you, how people are trying to move you away from the arts and tell you they’re not important. Be angry that things are being controlled by socially barely functional people that have a lot of money. Be angry about something. Be enraged about something” (Video: anakinspadawan / TikTok)

Tarkovsky's Nostalghia must be one of the most visually beautiful films ever made.
