Love these takes. There's a Marxian/socialist book-length interpretation to be written on all 3 Twin Peaks seasons.

Celebrating the arrival of autumn with the glorious Liv Ullmann, photographed by Philippe Le Tellier in 1969.
Liv Ullmann looks directly at the camera in this portrait; she's wearing a black turtleneck and a golden brown coat. She is standing next to tree branches with similarly gold-brown leaves.

What's an example of perfect casting? Mitchum as a classic film actor slotting so well into the seventies film revolution is so cool.

Dolly Parton used her gift for music to highlight the challenges of poverty, inequality, and struggle in ways that uplifted and inspired working people. “And I told 'em all the story / Momma told me while she sewed / And how my coat of many colors / Was worth more than all their clothes”

The Library is devastated to learn of the passing of Dolly Parton, a music legend and titan of children's literacy. Her Imagination Library program has earned multiple Library Literacy Awards and, in 2018, she visited us to donate its 100 millionth book to our collection and host a story time. 🦋❤️

ALT version.
The accusation that I am antisemitic is appalling and fundamentally dishonest. Criticizing the actions of the Israeli prime minister, a military technology contract, or the executives who supply it is not the same as criticizing Jewish people. This critical and necessary dialogue is then dishonestly framed as being anti-Israel.  To be clear, my views come from my own political convictions and should never be interpreted as hostility toward Jewish people, for whom I have deep love and respect.  Everything I know about acting, activism, and humanism has been profoundly shaped by the Jewish friends, colleagues, and loved ones who have been integral and family throughout every point of my life.


This merger has real consequences for real people, and for the entire country. Scrutinizing the Ellisons, including Oracle’s business built on data, surveillance technology and government contracts, and the serious threat to editorial freedom and the loss of a livelihood for thousands of families, is fair and necessary. The $111 billion deal would hand one family control over CNN, HBO and Warner Bros., backed in part by foreign money whose influence on editorial decisions has never been fully explained to the public. 

Lawmakers on both sides of the aisle have called for serious national security review, and regulators still haven’t given the public a real answer. Until they do, the merger shouldn’t move forward. Now is the time to dive boldly into all these issues, not step back or concede.

Figure of a woman with rollers in her hair and a cigarette in her mouth pushing a shopping cart filled with food. She wears a pink shirt, black skirt, stockings and blue shoes. A yellow beaded necklace is around her neck and her purse is hung off of her proper right wrist.

Joan Crawford and Jeff Chandler in Female on the Beach (1955)
Black and white film still. we are looking over the shoulder of Jeff Chandler's character Drummy. he is a tall sinewy man wearing striped t-shirt. he is looking down at Joan Crawford as Lynn Markham. Lynn is wearing a nightgown and  standing in the middle of a home that looks much more upscale than Drummy looks. 
the subtitles give us a couple lines of dialogue 
Drummy asks:
"How do you like your coffee?"
Lynn replies:
"ALONE"
