The logic of algorithms tends to repeat what โ€œworks,โ€ but art opens up what is possible. Not everything has to be immediate or predictable. Defend slowness when it serves a purpose, silence when it speaks and difference when evocative. Beauty is not just a means of escape; it is above all an invocation. When cinema is authentic, it does not merely console, but challenges. It articulates the questions that dwell within us, and sometimes, even provokes tears that we did not know we needed to express.

Some inspiring words on cinema in the streaming era from the Pope.

Yes, THAT Pope.

Did you wake up irrationally angry at how much energy is being used - and CO2 is being emitted - to foist upon us AI technology that most of don't even want?

PBS is an institution that keeps us honest.

I never thought I'd say this but thank you Netflix for saving Sesame Street.

AND thank you Netflix for keeping Sesame Street on PBS as well as providing SAME-DAY PREMIERES to PBS Kids for the first time in nearly a decade.

That's big. That's vital.

Now that we've had the high of Thunderbolts at the box office it means, inevitably, I'm going to have to listen to the bad faith criticism of Ironheart. Where "fans" will whine and whine about how Marvel is "so over" again because it's a female led POC project. Can't wait. ๐Ÿ™„

I'm back in my Marvel comics era, and I'm cracking up.
I can't believe all of these moments exist.

Red skull as a right wing podcaster? Iconic.

Sharon Carter saying fuck facists? Unreal.

Bucky Barnes getting carried by Carol Danvers? Incredible.

"to democratize art is not every person having a cute drawing made in seconds, to democratize art is every person having time and health to learn and make art if they chose to, and mainly to have the means to think and relate introspectively with art."

Pros to being a Captain Marvel fan: A lot cheap merch because she's not as popular. So everything is on sale.

Cons: When you wear said merch people ask if it's Wonder Woman.

After a phone alarm rang last night at GHOSTS for the entirety of the last 10 minutes of the play (Lily Rabe and Levon Hawke valiantly played through it), I am ready for every theater to institute Yondr pouches and for ushers to watch you turn off your phone. We donโ€™t deserve nice things.
