this is an obvious overcorrection that misleads the polling data and will lead to disaster in the Heartland. the results of tonight show that the Democrats should moderate: adopting two or at most three of the five pillars of Islam

It's insane to watch conservatives on my feed freak out that a city that they don't live in (and openly despise) might exercise its democratic right to elect a different person than conservatives would have elected.

Orwell 2+2=5 - Official Trailer (2025)
YouTube video by IGN Movie Trailers Orwell 2+2=5 - Official Trailer (2025)

If you're as sick as I am of people quoting Orwell who have clearly never cracked open a single one of his books, this feels like it might be a strong antidote. However, you can bet your ass that the people who need this film the most will never watch it.

Reverend David Black has a Bible open and is preaching to the police now, inviting them to join him in standing with the persecuted inside the detention center.

"I am an old woman
Named after my mother
An old man is another
Child who's grown old
If dreams were thunder
Lightning was desire
This old house it would've burned down
A long time ago."

A โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜… review of One Battle After Another (2025) I've been a PTA hater for some time nowโ€”when his films aren't thuddingly dull they're pretentious and melodramatic, which has the added effect of making it difficult to justify his famously controvers...

Holy SHIT this was a good movie: boxd.it/bw2GmD

"I died happy in my sleep
I died happy in my sleep
Our children around and you looking down
Heaven's a julep on the porch
Heaven's a julep on the porch
You and me rocking
A grandfather clock is tick, tick, tocking to time
We used to wind it."

Few of life's pleasures beat hearing all 3 of your teenage boys yelling at the screen while watching ALIENS for the first time.

Please stop sharing this fake, problematic โ€˜Screwtapeโ€™ political โ€œquoteโ€ [not just spurious, but beneath Lewis morally and literarily]

If you share this quote all you're really doing is giving away that you haven't actually read much C.S. Lewis to speak of (it's also a dumb quote that represents the exact sort of mealy-mouthed moral flabbiness that Lewis hated).

NEW: Pope Leo Set To Break Up Opus Dei If Pope Leo does indeed approves a plan that effectively dissolves Opus Deiโ€™s structure, it would be the most significant internal action of his short pontificate to date.

The Conquest of Chicago Can a deep-blue city fend off Trumpโ€™s ICE crackdown?

Once upon a time there was a version of America that would have refused to tolerate the unprovoked invasion of our cities by federal forces. Does that America still exist? We're going to find out pretty soon, but I don't have high hopes.

"I just don't know who or what to believe anymore" is often just another way of saying "I spent decades stubbornly defending positions that were clearly in bad faith until I was finally forced to abandon them but admitting that the other side might be right is still a bridge too far."

PAID MODELING OPPORTUNITY:

I need a woman, 65-90, THIS WEEKEND for a very short photoshoot in Baltimore, MD. All the model would need to do is pose beside our lead actor as his wife for a few key production photos.

PAID $$$

We used to have a saying in college that in order to read a G. K. Chesterton book, all you really had to do was read the first and last sentence of each paragraph and I gotta say the same has proven true about everything Mike Flanagan writes.

A โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…โ˜…ยฝ review of Weapons (2025) This is, hands down, one of the best horror movies I've ever seen. Cregger took everything he learned on Barbarian and turned it all the way up to 11, resulting in one of the scariest, funniest, most ...

I fucking LOVED this movie. WOW.

There's a disconnect going on between the strategic ineffectiveness of the regime not really changing day-to-day life yet for most people (although for those in the crosshairs, it's changed very dramatically!) and the absolute nightmare totalitarian vision it plainly desires

One week left of the River Maid campaign! Nows the time to push, especially since an anonymous donor has promised us a $750 Matching Matching Gift Challenge. So spread the word!

Our campaign for River Maid has a week left. I couldn't be more excited about this project, especially since I get to include footage from the actual movie in the pitch video now! Check it out and donate if you can, or at the very least spread the word! seedandspark.com/fund/river-m...

If you care about free speech, you should care about this, regardless of where you are on the political spectrum.

Except, of course, if where you are is "only I get to talk, everyone else must be silent." If that's the case, you're gonna love this.

This post that a friend of my partner's shared on FB potentially explains the Kristin Chenoweth thing, and is frightening.

Something Is Very Wrong Online The cycle of violence will continue as long as the medium doesnโ€™t change.

Charlie Kirkโ€™s shooter doesnโ€™t appear to fit neatly into any political ideology. This ambiguity makes him, at least for the purposes of the rage-baiters that control our national dialogue, the perfect shooter: someone who can simply be whoever you need him to be.

River Maid - Film and Storytelling | Seed&Spark River Maid tells the story of a grieving widower, whose encounter with a mermaid rekindles the boyhood wonder he thought he'd lost forever. We believe myths and fairy tales should be alive, not relics...

Hey all, I'm finally making my dream project, River Maid. This short film is 10 years in the making and it's a meditation on grief, hope, and renewal, with a little urban legend thrown in. If any of this interests you, our Seed&Spark is live now!
