Jonas Kyratzes @jonaskyratzes.bsky.social · 30/09/2026As we plunge deeper into a very obvious crisis at the highest levels of the system itself, it is increasingly important for the priests of that system to tell us that we can't understand or change our reality, and it's perfectly natural that we're returning to the Middle Ages. 062

Jonas Kyratzes @jonaskyratzes.bsky.social · 01/08/2026I don't think I'm projecting. He's not subtle in his concerns, they're pretty explicit (too explicit) in the text. Odysseus basically summarizes the movie's points in his conversations with Penelope at the end, and Penelope earlier also comments pretty explicitly on the collapse of institutions. 010

Jonas Kyratzes @jonaskyratzes.bsky.social · 13/07/2026Sam Neill was one of those actors where every moment you got to see him on screen felt like a privilege.
