Take a minute to appreciate how deep the bench of talent was in the cast of the INDIAN SUMMER (1993).

The Murder of The Washington Post Today’s layoffs are the latest attempt to kill what makes the paper special.

Yesterday, I was wet-eyed (obvi) on the Metro, wearing my Post beanie (obvi), and a woman, a stranger, leaned over and hugged me.

Which is to say: The entire city understands the scope of this devastating tragedy… www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

CASABLANCA was released 84 years ago. One of the biggest and most iconic films to ever come out of Hollywood, the story behind the scenes is like the beginning of a beautiful friendship…

Two important things:
1) after tomorrow the sun will not set before 5pm again in the UK…until October
2) if you’re struggling just now *please* be kind to yourself

https://collections.artsmia.org/art/136482/stoops-in-snow-martin-lewis :
Published in 1930, Stoops in Snow is a tour-de-force of Lewis’s intaglio printmaking oeuvre, a perfect balance of compositional originality and technical virtuosity. Depicting an ephemeral moment in the life of the city, the scene features several men and women walking beside a row of brownstones, heads bowed, bundled against the driving wind, cold, and snow of a New York blizzard. As in many of Lewis’s urban scenes, people and architecture are its principal subjects, but here the print’s aesthetic and conceptual qualities largely derive from the pictorial effects of light and weather conditions. Lewis’s masterful interpretation of wind driven snow accumulating on the city’s streets, sidewalks, and open-air stairs plays on the viewer’s memory and recognition to convey the raw sensations of a winter storm. Additionally, there is an unmistakable air of mystery in the scene’s fleeting activity, a sense that the city is alive with stories large and small, mostly hidden from view.

The arrests of journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort are a test for every MSM member with a platform. If you are not voicing your outrage at this blatant violation of the First Amendment, you are utterly discredited as a journalist.

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.
