Finally watching Halloween: The Curse of Michael Meyers (a.k.a. Halloween 6 a.k.a. Halloween 666: The Origin of Michael Myers) for the first time, and it's a whole special kind of awful. Still pretty amazed that Paul Rudd makes his debut here ...

I've read either excerpts or paraphrasings of John Lennon's comments about punk and new wave, but it's very cool to hear the audio where he expresses his admiration for Sex Pistols, B-52s, Blondie, etc. It makes you wonder where his music might have gone in the 1980s. www.youtube.com/watch?v=UD2z...

Hosting the first annual Jan Smithers Film Festival, which so far involves watching WHERE THE LILIES BLOOM (1974) before it leaves @criterionchannl.bsky.social this week. Now I need to find a copy of OUR WINNING SEASON (1978), which also crosses over with the annual P.J. Soles Film Festival.

Poster for the 1974 family drama Where the Lilies Bloom, starring Jan Smithers, Harry Dean Stanton, Rance Howard and one-and-done wonder Julie Gholson.

Rewatching Halloween 5 (The Revenge of Michael Myers, a subtitle not in the film), which enraged me in the theatre, and now just seems exceptionally silly. I hated it so much at the time, I skipped the next two, and never learned what the point was to the mysterious "Man in Black" character in 5.

AP Stylebook warns against anthropomorphizing AI systems: “Avoid language that gives them human characteristics… Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.”

APStylebook @APStylebook

Artificial intelligence systems do not think, feel, want or understand. Avoid language that gives them human characteristics. This is called anthropomorphizing, when we ascribe human traits, emotions or behaviors to non-human things, such as animals or inanimate objects.
Instead, explain what a system does, how well it performs, who built it and who could be affected by it.

Pompeii is a UNESCO world heritage site not because it was remarkable in its prime, but because it survived to our era untouched: one moment, preserved for all time. But future generations won't know what OUR world was like unless we do the same. This is why we MUST bury Toronto with a volcano

From 2021 to 2025, Stephen Miller was making $567K/year as head of his America First "think tank." He owns $100K-$250K in Palantir stock alone. His estimated net worth: ~$2 million. The immigrants he's deporting to third-party countries to be tortured and disappeared don't get an attorney at all.

The president of the White House Correspondents’ Association is Fox News’ Jacqui Heinrich. She’s married to a Republican congressman, Brian Fitzpatrick. Expecting the WHCA to forcefully fight Trump’s ban on CNN, MSNOW and Politico is like expecting your goldfish to cook your dinner.

O hey Reminder that in (homophobic) '94 as Dookie was blowing up, Green Day picked queercore Pansy Division to open for them + a lot of venues pressured them to drop them as openers -- Green Day told the venues they wouldn't play if PD didn't - and the venues (mostly? all?) backed down. huh.

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time. I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.
