You’ve probably seen this in the other places I’ve shared it, but I’m bringing back my old music blog. I’m working on lining up some interviews with artists and musicians and helping arrange a show at Oxbow in Portland. More to come! Most stuff will be over on factoryportland.com and Instagram.

Ducking frustrating

Great band name.

I’m aware of more than one person in my circle who have already left the country and know others who have/are considering it.

Still recovering from finding out Willem Dafoe is 5'7".

Who wore it better?

They started in 1988, I wonder if someone messed with the chalk and changed it

"The Substance" and "Challengers" (and I'm guessing "Anora") should not be in the Musical/Comedy category. "A Complete Unknown" is more qualified to be in that category than those movies.

I know awards shows suck, but they exist, so, therefore, I'll comment on them. I'm about 2/3 of the way into "Emilia Perez," and it's not better than Wicked or The Substance. It would also have been better without the music, although its trans representation would still be dated.

Movies set at Christmas and filmed in Portland, Maine A list of 3 films compiled on Letterboxd, including Reindeer Games (1996), The 12 Dogs of Christmas (2005) and The Preacher's Wife (1996).

Woman Flying, by Katherine Bradford, 1999

What’s the third one? I know the others but can’t place it.

You could make a pretty good Christmas movie with the cast of Candy Mountain!

I mean, now they have Robert Frank’s “Candy Mountain”!

That said, he nailed the way he smokes a cigarette in this photo.

I love that they make fun of this

Me too (+10)!

This picture is equal parts hilarious and frightening.

Today's accidental double feature: 3/4 of the main cast of "Halt and Catch Fire" in "Speak No Evil" and "The Fall." Sorry Kerry Bishé, not today!

@legialerts.org is an extremely important account to follow if you care at all about rights in The US. While its account name suggests a focus on LGBTQ+ rights, it covers a lot more, too.

The movies are great, very excited to watch this!

Oh, @coraliefargeat.bsky.social is now on Bluesky!
