But why didn’t they voted a year ago?

The logic of algorithms tends to repeat what “works,” 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.

Won’t you give us a hint?

Literally a year too late.

Babylon Berlin.

Thanks to Diane for all the great memories she gave us. And despite everything, Annie Hall will always have a special place in my heart, because now that I’m getting older, it’s meaning is more important. RIP

Le prix Nobel de la paix décerné à Maria Corina Machado, opposante vénézuélienne Celle qui vit dans la clandestinité dans son propre pays depuis la réélection contestée du président Nicolas Maduro en juillet 2024 a déjà reçu, l’année dernière, le prix Vaclav-Havel et le prix Sakharov.

Republicans are fighting to ensure that Americans in Texas, Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana, Georgia, South Carolina, Tennessee, and a raft of other red states pay DOUBLE what they paid before for healthcare.

That’s what they voted for, let them enjoy it.

There has not been one single Republican administration in my lifetime that's created more jobs than a Democratic administration. Since I've been alive.

People to get rings before the Dallas Cowboys this century:
- The Patriots dynasty

- The Chiefs dynasty
- Taylor Swift

Good news for everyone who believed that Trump felt your pain during the campaign-- food and housing prices might be rising and tariffs might be making everyday goods more expensive, but at least Trump is getting a 90,000 sq ft ballroom for himself!

If Obama, Comey, Brennan and Biden wrote the Epstein file to destroy Trump, as he claims... why didn't they release it and destroy Trump? Not exactly airtight logic.

Ah, the golden age.

Please

Mommy

There it is. Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) says Republicans’ next goal is to kick seniors off Social Security: “Get off of Social Security. Get back into the workforce.”

New York Post headline: I Hate My X! with an illustration drawing a lacy heart, split down the middle, around Musk and Trump.

I don't want to be the "That's not funny!" guy because, frankly, a lot of it IS funny, and a lot of it comes from people whose heads and politics are largely in the right place. On the other hand, something like this...yeah, ha ha ha and screw you, NYPost.

If you only followed the mainstream media you’d have no idea whatsoever that Trump has committed dozens of illegal acts as President this year. It’s legitimately horrible.

"This is a distraction."

Yeah, a fucking great one!

Elon calls for Trump’s impeachment.

Wow.

Get your popcorn ready.

The world’s richest man just basically said Trump is a pedophile and Trump threatened to take all his contracts away. I feel like this is all going to put a small dent in the seismic shocker about Biden’s former press secretary registering as an independent. Guess I’ll have to wait for the book!

Why can’t it be both?

David Lynch's gravesite, with the expected offerings.

Groundskeepers are going to be picking up coffee cups forever.
