I always think back to the Paige Williams piece in the New Yorker, about all the profit-seeking forces that descended on him immediately and turned an awful thing into an even more awful thing.

And, finally, also last night, I discovered "The Long Goodbye" is a great movie for bedtime. So lulling that I was ready to close my eyes as soon as the credits rolled. I would have a beer with Elliot Gould's Marlowe.

Then last night I watched "Cleaner," which, mostly, lol. Happy for the '00s-era Strokes to get a plug with that shirt, though.

I said I was gonna post more reviews, and then I promptly forgot again. Since this post, I've watched three movies. First one was "Born on the Fourth of July," which was quite powerful in exploring the personal costs of unquestioning belief in grand mythologies. Want more people today to see it.

Can't say since I haven't seen it yet, but I feel at least "28 Days Later" would be worth your time first, since Garland and Boyle were involved there as well. "28 Weeks Later" is kinda nothing.

The military advisor was so bloodthirsty.

The amount of time I spent bringing other nations to heel, I tell ya. But I brought rail and improved farmland and all city improvements to my conquered territories! I was a benevolent dictator! (I was also seeking to maximize output.)

It *is* a positive sign that things are maybe finally getting boring enough over on Twitter, though.
