if they were actually teaching Marx everywhere we wouldn’t have to see shit like this every day
"Standing here now, holding a salve made from plants that have been harvested, dried, infused, and waited on, I recognize the feeling immediately. The farmer's market is full of people trying to make a living from devotion. The sourdough. The coffee.
The salve. Customers spend money on an item but what we're actually buying is someone's relationship to time."

every time I pick up a contemporary debut novel the point of view is like “I didnt feel anything” and “I didn’t know what I thought.” Why did someone write this and why am I reading it!!

from Spatial Systems in North By Northwest by Fredric Jameson
this sequence of spaces generates a sense of completeness (or a 'totality-effect) which can scarcely be explained by its content alone. Comparable formal problems (and 'solutions') can be found in Raymond Chandler's equally episodic (and spatial) detective stories, where the successful mapping of the Los Angeles region
- in other words, our sense that, in spite of necessary selectivity,
'totalization' has been achieved - is structurally dependent on the inclusion of some ultimate boundary or verge of Being itself (in Fare-well, My Lovely, the sea).' In the Hitchcock film, the stereotypical or imaginary frame is clearly some phantasmic United States, about which one might argue that the open-field sequence sets the Midwest in place, while the mountainous landscape of North Dakota does double duty for the Rockies (and the non-specific popular accent of the minor characters might also open up a space for the South). Yet here too, as in Chandler, the completeness of the enumerated elements (of such a map-phantasm) is not enough: we must also come to the ultimate edge of all this, in order for it to recohere retroactively as a satisfyingly exhaustive itinerary.

what’s good about the first 2 movies is the Boys Own Adventure vibe, with goofy comedy & corny romance & dudes being bros. The family dramas and stuff about governments and the force and outer space were the worst parts. I don’t have opinions about the other movies because I don’t care about them

One of my thoughts on 4/20 is that the general cultural mode of a guy who likes drugs has moved from a kind of hippy let’s all get along sort of guy to a “I am better than you because I do drugs and have become the ubermensch” sort of guy and it’s been a pretty big catastrophe for the human race

there may well be people who insisted on helping her; there may be some continuing to do so right now. HDW is an autonomous adult—what do people think effective “insisting” would look like in this context?
what i don't understand is why no one in her life flew to amsterdam to help helen dewitt do the stuff she needed to do in order to receive a life-changing amount of money????????? jesus christ i would have

this reminds me of how it’s not really a compliment when someone says a movie shot is “like a painting.” it shouldn’t be like a painting, it should be like a movie. because it is a movie
from Spatial Systems in NxNW by Jameson: “In contemporary image culture, there are evidently good and objective reasons why this temptation should be so strong: anyone who has leafed through Hitchcock stills, however, in the attempt to illustrate - or at least to peg for memory's sake - this or that significant moment in his films (including this one), learns, with a certain salutary astonishment, that the isolated frame in Hitchcock conveys very little of what we then rapidly come to identify as the crucial matter: namely, movement itself. In spite of the fetishization of the visual and the voyeuristic in Hitchcock (or perhaps because of it), these films rarely work towards the supreme moment of the production of the modernist image as such, the dissociation of the moment of vision from the narrative which becomes its pretext, as in the Dance of Death in The Seventh Seal, or the dramatic caricature of the whole process of image-production in the unexpected Last Supper of Viridiana.”

The latest TikTok trend is called "Millandstanding." It's when you try to list as many Ray Milland roles as you can think of in under a minute. I have to admit it's nice to see young people take an interest in Ray Milland
