Rahm is currently polling at 0.2%. Let me repeat that again. The former Mayor of Chicago and former White House Chief of Staff is polling at two tenths of one percent. Fuck this guy. He's chum in the water for the real candidates.

I'm sure this is absolutely fantastic and disturbing, but I'll never watch it. I've been in therapy for years dealing with being the child of two narcissistic sociopaths, and I don't need to spend three hours with the biggest narcissistic sociopath currently alive.

Good afternoon, everyone. I hope you had the chance to check out our most recent episode on the 1980 movie Rude Boy. Another new episode is coming soon, I promise. Problem is, my "recording studio" is a mother in law suite that has no AC and can still be upwards of 90 degrees at midnight...

Took my daughter to see Coyote vs. Acme last night. She loved it, as did I, and we've been watching classic Coyote/Road Runner cartoons all morning. Thanks @jamesgunn.bsky.social for making this movie happen, and to Ketchup for having the balls to release it.

TIL that Proclaimers song I Will Walk 500 Miles was originally released in the UK in August 1988, and would take five years and an appearance in Benny and Joon to even get a release in America.

There will be a new episode of the podcast coming this week, hopefully late Tuesday night or early Wednesday morning. And while the film itself might not be very memorable, the story behind the film will feel more than vaguely familiar to anyone paying attention today.

The original 1980 theatrical one-sheet for Rude Boy, a British movie best known for its footage of The Clash live just as they were about to break out onto the world stage.

Why, yes, I have roamed the streets of Vienna looking for shooting locations for The Third Man. Fun fact: the grate the hands that come out of at the end of the movie was filmed (at a different angle, of course) right in front of the doorway Harry Lime is first seen. 🎥

Me in front of the same doorway where Orson Welles is first revealed in The Third Man, October 2024.

Cousin Orson (well, like, third cousin a couple times removed) making his famous entrance in one of the greatest movies of all time.

As a film lover, I'll tell you this... as long as it's not torture porn, AI and/or more documentaries about Melania Trump, IDGAF which movies are successful in theatres. Even the Angel Studios ones. If a film is getting people back into the habit of going to the movies, I'm all for it. 🎥

My goal in life is that, upon my passing, my daughter only hears good things from people about me. How I stood up against the patriarchy, how I stood up against racism, how I stood up in support of marginalized people, how I stood up against genocide. That I was a good person. It's not that hard.
