I mentioned once to a coworker that American kids should all have K-12 Spanish instruction like they do French in Canada* & if silent, stony stares could injure I’d have spent weeks in the ICU. *I know it doesn’t really work like that in Canada but that was my dumb-Yank impression at the time

life is still worth living after severe injury/disability. a lot of people have trouble envisioning life after a permanent health whatever ("I'd rather be dead...") and: you cannot let the bastards win, ever. fuck them.

Favorite short story talk’s coming around again & I got a bunch of those among the most popular school textbook/sci-fi anthology choices, but my go-to recommendation is always Diane Oliver’s “Mint Juleps Not Served Here.” Don’t read anything about it, just go in blind & it’ll haunt ya.

Last week I saw The Rutles: All You Need Is Cash for the 1st time, which means through no fault of The Compleat Beatles it's hard to now watch the latter for the 1st time without laughing. Favorite moment so far is one girl who doesn't start the frenzied screaming until she realizes she's on camera.

in Carrie, do you think newly inaugurated President Gerald Ford would be able to cope with a teenage girl killing some 500 people in a small town in Maine because it turns out ESP is real or do you think Ed Muskie eats his lunch in the following 1976 election?

If you watch Point of Order, & you should watch Point of Order (still on Criterion), nothing about the Senate hearings will look unfamiliar & also instructive is the bipartisan groveling at the mere mention of J. Edgar Hoover’s name.

Our society is disastrously utilitarian. We can no longer distinguish the ad from the entertainment, the front cover of the national magazine, in which an actor poses to plug his film, from the back cover in which an actor sells cigarettes and indirectly also plugs a film. (1965)

Last night's movie was Godzilla vs. Mechagodzilla II & the Heisei Godzillas are so incredibly my shit--they have a very particular new-agey goofy weirdness with a dark kernel at the core that for some reason suits me perfectly. Release a box set like you did for the Shōwa, Criterion, c'mon.

Somehow, in the year of our Lord 2026, professional politics workers convinced themselves that the Shah of Iran could return to power through popular uprising. This is the power of motivated thinking. The same motivated thinking from the same people that gave us our last disastrous war.

We report: the moon rose as it was already getting dark, and it was drizzling. It was only by chance that we saw it glowing through the clouds, and decided to wait until the wind pushed them away. It was a full moon yesterday, but as usual, it seemed equally full tonight.

Digital painting: a yellow full moon is glowing brightly in a dark blue sky, the light bouncing off the edges of some dark clouds.

[POPEYE] Shelley Duvall takes the funny-page drawing of Olive Oyl and breathes her own spirit into it. Possibly she can do this so simply because she accepts herself as a cartoon to start with, and working from that, goes way past it. (1980)

It is false that artists (musicians, writers, etc) do their best work while young, but true that few can continue to do their best work after a certain level of success and recognition. The age-related decline is an illusion; success is the real killer.

Your feed now contains one Red Deer and several complimentary ferns. Enjoy.

A Red Deer looks through a curtain of green ferns with its antlers tangled in leafy fronds, giving the impression it's accidentally wearing a woodland hat. The softly blurred background creates a peaceful forest scene.

I think this is still on the Criterion Channel, go watch it & then read Edward Bunker’s No Beast So Fierce, the source material which has a radically different ending than the film but both are well worth it.

First time cooking with tamarind, an ingredient that thanks to a long-ago bad encounter with stale Mexican candy I thought I hated but tasting the concentrate was like “SOUR! GODDAMN! Hook me up, son!” The food blogs are right that lemon/lime juice just isn’t a good substitute.

Emily, my kindred spirit

Fall, Leaves, Fall by Emily Bronte
Fall, leaves, fall; die, flowers, away;
Lengthen night and shorten day;
Every leaf speaks bliss to me,
Fluttering from the autumn tree.
I shall smile when wreaths of snow
Blossom where the rose should grow;
I shall sing when night’s decay
Ushers in a drearier day.

Even with (motions to entire planet) it’s amazing how much easier it is to think straight & care about anything when the weather finally starts to cool down in earnest. Summer makes me a sick pig, the “waaahhh I wanna move somewhere it never snows” dead-enders can have it.
