Every time I watch a Buston Keaton movie I'm stunned by what an incredible director he is. Yes, his stunts are jaw-dropping, but his comedic timing and architecture, blocking, and editing instincts are better than pretty much any director working today.
I have already listened to the new Board of Canada album ten thousand times, naturally.
Prisons have been closed for less than this. Whitmer needs to demand the resignation of the MDOC director.

This is one reason why film restoration is so important. His timing is FLAWLESS, & any change in the film speed is a huge loss. And despite the stereotypes, silent film acting could be extremely subtle; if small details like eyebrow twitches are lost b/c of film degradation, you're missing a ton.
Congratulations to Spencer Pratt for losing the LA mayoral primary, I am so glad you won't have to continue living in a city that you clearly have so much open contempt for.
Screwworm is just the tip of the iceberg. Elon took a wrecking ball to the entire global public health system. Even if you're insulated from the genocide he unleashed in several parts of the globe, it is likely that you or people you know will die in the coming years as a result of his actions.
It's possible, even likely, that he will be responsible for more premature death and suffering than any other individual on earth of the twenty first century. That's why comparing his historical impact to that of people like Hitler isn't just appropriate, but a matter of common sense.
He's also an unbelievably effective actor. You know exactly what his character is thinking; he is able to walk you through a complex sequence of ideas and realizations with just a few eye movements and fidgeting movements, even when seated. Such an astonishing guy to behold.
