I love Neil Young for a host of reasons but this is pretty cool "New York Times used to be where I went for news. Now I go to 'The Guardian.' I suggest you give it a try." neilyoungarchives.com/news/1
A Message from Neil
1-26-26
Folks, I would love to get back to writing about Music for you all. Our country is in turmoil. If you watch FOX, try another channel for your news for just one day.
Untruths are abounding on FOX. New York Times used to be where I went for news. Now I go to 'The Guardian'. I suggest you give it a try. Forget the news
"shows" on Media. They are all about posers and good looks. Remember "News Programs"? where it was not all about posing. America needs some truth. Not media obsessed with satisfying
everybody. CNN? Trash mostly. Look deeper. There is real coverage. Go to independent journalism. Get some relief from white washed 'news shows'.
Love Earth, Be well,
Neil

Love this from Guillermo del Toro
“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”

Rewatching "Children of Men" for the 1st time in almost 20 years and OMG, the opening lines. "Day 1,000 of the Siege of Seattle. The Muslim community demands an end to the Army's occupation of mosques...the deportation of illegal immigrants will continue." The movie takes place in 2027.
Frame from the 2006 movie "Children of Men." Under gray city skies, illegal immigrants are held in open-air cages while riot police hold off protesters.
