And his next one, Grace Pervades, will too!

Obvious question, but not David Hare the playwright and screenwriter?

If memory serves that was pretty much an arrow to its mark.

I wish there were more middlebrows in Hollywood. Admittedly the only film I've seen this year is Mickey 17, however it would be nice to have some films without obnoxious amounts of guns in them. I'm not averse to a good action or war film, but they might lose their power if that's all film is.

@contrapoints.bsky.social - if my suspicion based on historical precedent is right, we could be looking at the slaughter of every minority in the US - about 100m people. That's the absolute worst-case scenario.

238 people sent to CECOT that we know of. There may be significantly more than that, just the family members are afraid to put identifying details online because they will go next.

@contrapoints.bsky.social - was there a cypher in the video, perchance? Also, yet another masterpiece. Take as long as you need over 'em. The rewatchability makes it all worth it.

And now would be the time of all times to play 'Little Dark Age' by MGMT. Shame it ended up being co-opted by the same sort of people with the ideas the song was against a couple of years back.

This was a great double-bill! It's nice to see video essays increasingly resemble plays, whether they be in monologue with props, or filmed in one take, or with an interval.

How the hell is this the only reference for Brotherless Night on this whole site?

Speaking of... can you direct me to a few Big Cheeses? Many thanks!

The great thing about BlueSky is you can just type in 'societal collapse' and get amazing quips like that one.

Hey @theabigailthorn.bsky.social - I loved the pacing on this. Fast, theatrical and fun. More, please!

Waiting for the new, @sparksofficial.bsky.social album, Edgar. Oh, and outlining a novel as of the moment I write this.

You took the words right out of my mouth, Sonja. I hope Ron and Russell release more BTS stuff like this clip.

Thank you for this series. And what a tremendous final video. Well done.

By that, what I mean is current affairs move so quickly now, we can look at the news and see examples developing right before your eyes. Amazing video, by the way. Well done to you and Abigail.

Oh, this has aged scarily well already, considering the social climate...

Massive spin-off one. Your best stuff normally tends towards the feature-length.
