@letterboxd.social I have a question. When I filter my watchlist by movies that are available streaming on my favorite services, I am seeing films that... are not available streaming on my favorite services. Examples: Never Say Goodbye (1946) and The Last Shot (2004). Why is this happening?

They should send the police to fight the fire! Maybe they can use their clubs to beat it to death.

Your reminder that bad actors who espouse fascism will eventually come for you. Even if you look exactly like them and behave exactly like them, you're not immune. Greed is eternal. People have deluded themselves by thinking that because a wannabe strongman goes after the marginalized...

THIS: “A country that just barely beats a fascist will remain on the brink of fascism, while a country that resoundingly defeats a fascist might stave off another stare-down with the abyss for years or decades.” By @brianbeutler.bsky.social www.offmessage.net/p/run-up-the...

Another note about voting and the right to do so. There are forces gathering right now to deprive people of the right to vote. Sure, you might say, those are Other people. Not me. Think again. You can always lose this right if the people in charge are sufficiently craven, cynical, and mendacious.

Do you enjoy having a say in your nation's elections, however small that say may seem? Then don't vote for a fascist. Fascists do not like people having a say in things, particularly if their say is diametrically opposed to their own.

I voted and received my confirmation. And my sticker! I hope all of you of-age Americans out there do the same. VOTE VOTE VOTE Turnout for these elections is never particularly high. We need to change that this year.

“Box of Rain” is about death and being grateful for life and I am grateful for that song and grateful for the now dead Phil Lesh of the Grateful Dead and his life for which he was grateful before his death.

For everyone who just canceled their WaPo subscriptions because it's run by a fascist who plans on being head of Trump's State Run Media, here's a paper that isn't afraid of that big giant piece of shit

Under federal election law, paying people to register to vote, including via entry to a lottery, is illegal. Under Pennsylvania law, any unregulated lottery is illegal. Under federal law, a PAC coordinating and campaigning with a candidate is illegal. I'm in the camp that says laws should matter.

Over the holiday weekend, Trump’s language became more sinister, unhinged, and unapologetic, baiting his legions of supporters with promises of violence, retribution, and purifying purges. More in today's Morning Memo...

"Whatever you thought of Donald Trump in 2016 or 2020 or even in the aftermath of Jan. 6, 2021, Trump is promising in no uncertain terms a new, more apocalyptic and unrepentant version of himself." - David Kurtz

"[S]omething is fundamentally broken when it requires a coalition that ranges from AOC to Liz Cheney to elect a pro-democracy candidate. Democracy is designed to mediate the differences among those who believe in democracy, not resolve the conflict over whether to have democracy at all." 👆👍
