If you're in Chicago, I'd strongly recommended seeing TRAIN DREAMS tonight @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social if you can. For one, it's in 35mm. For two, the film's theatrical life will be very short before it goes to Netflix. For three, it's really quite good. www.chicagofilmfestival.com/event/traind...

I had some overlaps boxd.it/tC76o

this is amazing. feels new.

I was just at a panel w/the director of a doc about the WTO protests in Seattle in '99 & it shows how quickly the media re-configured protesters' joy & creativity as silly & unserious.

Even liberals were like "oh boy, here we go w/the puppets" &c

The post 9/11 Republican loves to call Democrats pro-terror, but if you say they love dead kindergartners because of their NRA-money-funnel, well here’s a big bunch of pearls the press will clutch for them

Eventually You're Going to Have to Stand for Something On accepting the fascist offer and being better than Ezra.

I wrote about why the regrettable conclusions of Ezra Klein pissed me off so badly in the last couple weeks.

ICE shot a woman, that part is true

so everything I heard about the incident was a lie. EVERYTHING.

Claim: 10 cars rammed ICE

Truth: She did not have a rifle

Claim: ICE returned fire
Truth: Only ICE fired

Claim: She drove herself to the hospital
Truth: Paramedics found her

The skeleton key to unlock the Trump administration is to understand that everything it does is for the sake of posting. It wants to get likes and shares. And it is specifically captured by a neo-Nazi, fascist audience that wants images of torture, violence, and murder, especially of minorities.
