I'm still not over yesterday's obscene SCOTUS decision that our government can deport people to prisons in countries they're not from. How is anyone walking around going about their day?

What actor’s expression in a movie will stay with you the rest of your life?

At this early hour, these are what I consider my 10 favorite movies from the 21st Century. This could change at any moment In The Mood for Love Portrait of a Lady on Fire Blade Runner 2049 Licorice Pizza The Favourite The Wolf of Wall Street Lady Bird Tar Oppenheimer Star Wars: The Last Jedi

I mean... the toys were cool

"Levon"... pretty much the entirety of MADMAN ACROSS THE WATER. I'd call that a perfect album.

Look, I'm keeping up with every step of current events, but if I didn't read a 22-page comic about how Superman's dog Krypto landed on Earth, I'd lose my mind.

I guess we're not going to Mars, guys!

Something I am thinking about right now is that a 3 million dollar program that allows abused women to take their pets with them to domestic violence shelters is about to be cut because “we don’t have the money” but the government is about to spend 1000000000x more than that to bomb people

GET YOUR WAR ON by the great David Rees, nearly 24 (!) years ago. www.mnftiu.cc/category/gyw...

Was a good night to get depressed and watch Easy Rider.

Do we think Nashville would be safe from the nuclear fallout? Probably not.

Really liked THE LIFE OF CHUCK. It starts off (or should I say ends?) kinda slow but the second and first acts are knockouts. Actors really love to dance! We should let them!

Seeing THE LIFE OF CHUCK today before it disappears!

Happy 50th to JAWS, my default answer to proof that sometimes the movie is way better than the book.

I feel like Celine Song is making movies just for me.

Yes. I am right. I am seeing how Chat GPT is ruining students critical thinking and writing skills in real time. It is not the future. It is a tool designed to render the populace helpless, to make people doubt their innate intelligence, and to foster overreliance on technology.

There is actually a very accurate historical document of the post-9/11 vibes. A clipart comic called Get Your War On. Click on through: www.mnftiu.cc/2001/10/09/w...

I know I should be using my PS5 to play the most up-to-date games, but that ain't gonna happen when the mediocre 2002 STAR WARS: BOUNTY HUNTER is right there.

So much bullshit. Just so much.

I love the cheese of Mellencamp's "This Time"

How the hell am I supposed to be a Red Sox fan? What is there even left to root for!?!?

No Kings But Kirby.

Made it home. Somehow I made it through an entire week in London with the most amazing, rain-free weather imaginable, but it's lightning and raining here in Nashville now.

I wish I could go to a protest but I'll be in the air. #NoKings

During my first time to SXSW back in 2015, Richard Linklater said "excuse me" to me on his way to the bathroom before a screening.

disappointed in myself as a Beatles fan for not visiting Abbey Road during this trip, but I was only here for five days and it doesn't help that I got sick after spending one of those days in Canterbury.

The HUD screening at the #BFI might be my favorite moment from the trip. As if the movie wasn't devastating enough, it is even more so with a crowd. When Paul Newman turns and says, "I had a mama who loved me, but she died," you could feel the emotional punch hit everyone at once.

Do I need to leave tomorrow?

I'd really love to bask in the happiness I felt after seeing the greatest movie ever made on 35mm in London (IN THE MOOD FOR LOVE), but I can't think about that anymore because stuff is getting even worse at home.

leftists: that thing you teach us in school to be terrified of is happening historians: that thing is definitely happening star wars: here is a beat-for-beat breakdown of how the thing happens, but with pew pew lasers. we know you watched it news outlets: these protesters are out of control

I can't handle losing Brian Wilson while I'm on vacation. I can't even put into words how much his music helped me get through high school and college. Seeing him, Al and Blondie play the entirety of PET SOUNDS live in Boston in 2006 was one of the greatest nights in my life.

W.E.B. Du Bois on Robert E. Lee: “Either he knew what slavery meant when he helped maim and murder thousands in its defense, or he did not. If he did not he was a fool. If he did, Robert Lee was a traitor and a rebel–not indeed to his country, but to humanity and humanity’s God.”

I bought records in Canterbury. There was a zero percent chance I would make it through this entire trip without buying records.

I'm at St. Pancras right now and thinking how the greatest mode of ground transportation exists and the U.S. just said, "Nah."

Fight the Empire.

Walking by a brewery that's older than the U.S. really puts things in perspective

My Alma mater just posted AI slop. Incredibly disappointed. We don't even have a football team and yet this is set at a football stadium. WTF.

Why isn't Trump's clear and open call for federal law enforcement to arrest a Democratic governor based on zero lawbreaking of any kind leading every single news site right now?

Tate Modern kinda blows MoMA out of the water. Yes, there are a few pieces from the stalwarts, but the vast majority of the collection on display is from artists I'd never heard of.

I walked 10 miles today in London and I just wish more American cities were that walkable.

Nothing makes you realize how ridiculous monarchy is like seeing the Crown Jewels, which includes a giant gold punch bowl.

This place is kind of neat.

Why do they need so many different coin denominations here!?!
