Avant garde films from the 30's to 60's might be the most punk rock shit ever if you think about it, these cats preceded the ease of means we have today to make DIY shit and not only did it anyway but radicalized their form under the nose of strict moralistic restrictions. Respect.

On February 24, 1989, FBI Special Agent Dale Cooper arrived at the wonderful town of TWIN PEAKS to investigate the murder of Laura Palmer. The events that he would live there from that moment would mark the course of his life forever. #TwinPeaksDay

From food safety to air travel to environmental protections, Trump and Musk have gone on a firing spree at agencies that protect nearly every facet of American life. This has nothing to do with "efficiency" and everything to do with lining their own pockets at our expense.

I think the stunts in silent films are the most impressive era of stunts because you just know there wasn't a single safety measure in place, these motherfuckers were really running on moving trains and the studio was like "if he dies, he dies"

It seems almost unavoidable at this point that we are headed for a deep, deep recession. Just based on 200K+ federal firings & pullback of contracts, the March employment report (to be released April 4) seems certain to show bigger job losses than any month ever outside of a few in 2008-9 and 2020.

I'm watching Shin Kamen Rider and it's convinced me that even when Anno isn't making Evangelion, he's retelling it to some degree 20m in and the plot is about, and I shit you not, a government agency gone rogue directed by a madman with a misguided view of humanity's path to happiness

I hate how gross the lyrics to Hey Little Tomboy are, because it is 100% one of Brian Wilson's most fun songs melodically. If you don't speak English, this song has to be an all timer

The older I get, the more I realize Eleanor Rigby is the best story any of the Beatles ever wrote - not the best song necessarily or even the best set of lyrics, but as a story it's so immediate, like holy shit

One GOP proposal takes aim squarely at parents raising children on their own by eliminating the “head of household” filing status to reap some $200B more in taxes over a decade from single parents and other adults caring for dependents on their own.
