Oh, this is a tough one. He was a good guy. Early in our relationship, my partner bought me an autographed photo of Mr. Mantooth. It's one of my treasured possessions. KMG-365, sir. www.hollywoodreporter.com/tv/tv-news/r...

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. Stay free

I'm watching "Ryuichi Sakamoto: Opus" with some friends in Discord. I was prepared for the music to be powerful. I did not expect the cinematography to be equally moving. This is a beautiful, beautiful film. Highly, highly recommended. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ryuichi...
A black and white image of Ryuichi Sakamoto seated in front of a piano, mostly in shadow.  Close frame of Ryuichi Sakamoto's face while he is playing.   Closeup Ryuichi Sakamoto playing the piano.  His hands and the piano keys are visible.  They are also reflected in the piano. Ryuichi Sakamoto seated at the piano, playing.  Most of the image is shadowed, except for the acoustic wall panels in the background.

Also, a happy 90125 Day to those who celebrate. I remember my 8th grade brain exploding at both the song (THE VOCALS OMGGGGGGG) and the video (featuring a dizzying tour de force of video special effects at the time - six years before the Video Toaster came on the scene).

Happy Labor Day, y'all. Hug a union today.
A triptych portraying a person at work, a person sleeping in bed, and a couple in a boat on a lake.  The panels are captioned "8 hours for work", "8 hours for rest", and "8 hours for what we will."   A figure in the lower right corner holds aloft a banner that says "8 Hours."  

The artist is Ricardo Levins Morales, his initials can be seen next to the figure holding the "8 Hours" banner.

Happy Zero Cool Day to all who celebrate.
A triptych of screen shots from the movie "Hackers."  

The first frame shows Dade saying "I've got a record.  I was Zero Cool." 

The second frame shows Lord Nikon saying "Zero Cool crashed 1,507 systems in one day.  Biggest crash in history." 

The last frame shows Lord Nikon saying "Front page New York Times, August 10, 1988."

Turns out that the database I'm using to drive the new iptv clipbot has a few rightwing bullshit streams in it, which is clearly not a desirable outcome. So I've rewritten the bot to deal with those appropriately when they come up.

Puffin's Bluff
A puffin stands on the edge of a cliff overlooking the ocean. "I always thought I'd get wiser and braver with time... but I'm only becoming more neurotic". We see its perspective, looking down at the rough water below. "Why am I like this? Does it help me?" A close up of the puffin's face, looking momentarily cheerful. "Maybe overthinking IS wisdom! I AM the contemplative figure, gifted with great insight". They look down again "...and nervous bowels".
