I have the MoviesTVNetwork on my antenna lineup, and I spent 7 hours today watching 3 Film Noir films that I have never seen.
Robert Montgomery, as Philip Marlowe, from the film Lady in the Lake, is looking into a mirror. He is wearing a white shirt with suspenders, black pants, and his tie is undone. Audrey Totter, as Adrienne Fromsett, is just behind him and to the left of Marlowe. Her hair is pinned up, and she is wearing a print dress. No colors as this film is in black and white. Humphrey Bogart as Phillip Marlowe and Lauren Bacall as Vivian Rutledge in the film The Big Sleep. Marlowe is sitting in a desk chair, dressed in a suit and tie, holding a piece of paper. Vivian is sitting on the desk wearing a checked suit and a black blouse. Jimmy Stewart as the character P.J. Jim McNeal, a reporter for the Chicago Times in the film Call Northside 777. He is wearing a white shirt and a striped tie, holding a piece of paper in his right hand and a large coffee cup in his left hand. His left wrist is adorned with a watch on a black band. There is a desk lamp casting a stream of light on the scene. There are file cabinets in the background.

Literal cages. Not even metaphorical ones. Literal ones.
Jason Delgado (Florida Capitol reporter for Spectrum News 13) on X: "Quick look at what inside a detainment tent looks like here at Alligator Alcatraz." What is shown in the picture is a long tent structure, about 50 feet wide. There is a corridor running down the middle. On each side are three rows of bunk beds. The bunk beds are sectioned off into cells which are constructed out of chain link fence, with chain link on the ceiling as well, making each cell a literal cage. It looks to me like each cell contains 9 bunk beds, so has capacity for 18 people each.

I have had this book on my living room shelf for a few years, and decided to give it a whirl. Wow! This author is amazing. It takes place in 1936 Berlin, and to have the cajones to write a scene with Herman Goering is wild. Bernie Gunther is my new favorite historical private eye. ⚡📚💙
The cover of the first three Bernie Gunther novels in one book. The author is Philip Kerr, written in yellow in the middle, and there is a small photo of a man sitting in a car looking out the window.

They thought masks and no name tags would protect them. ICE agents are being unmasked—names, faces, badge numbers, and insurers. When the reckoning comes, they won’t hide behind “just doing my job.” There are more of us than them. You can run. You can lie. But you can’t hide. icelist.info

Compton, CA: A masked, heavily-armed man wearing body armor jumped out of a SUV today to kidnap a local resident. He forgot to put the vehicle in park, causing it to roll down the street damaging other cars. He jumped in the vehicle (which had no platess) and drove off without identifying himself.

We won’t amplify it, but the president posting that Dems are “sick of mind” and “hate our country” immediately after 2 Dem lawmakers and their spouses were shot in their homes is the opposite of leadership. Gas on the fire.

Jesus. The juxtaposition of these two posts back to back is just...
10:30am:

"Brevard County Sheriff Sheriff Wayne Ivey: "If you throw a brick, a firebomb, or point a gun at one of our deputies, we will be notifying your family where to collect your remains at, because we will kill you graveyard dead."

10:49am:


law enforcement officials say they made a proactive check at Rep. Hortman's home after a lawmaker who lived nearby was shot and found a "police vehicle in the driveway with emergency lights and what appeared to be a police officer at the door coming out of the house." He was actually the gunman.

Hey hey! CANADIAN and US friends. GODS OF THE WYRDWOOD is a Kindle deal today, others'll be price matching. I took a quick look at Netgalley reviews of the last book and its all people being gobsmacked by where it goes. So if weird worldbuilding and strangeness are your thing... Spread the word!
The cover of GODS OF THE WYRDWOOD, a strange woody face looks out of a white cover at you. The book is full of weird ecology and social systems that differ to ours. Its the low key start to something that will only get bigger and weirder.  And if the message of, it's not about one person, it's about community that runs through them is important to you, this might float your boat.
