The single greatest use of Chekhov's pane of glass you'll ever see. It's beyond me how someone didn't die filming these stunts. What's Up, Doc? (1972) | Peter Bogdanovich

Just realized I tried to kill myself on 4/20, so for the rumor mill: Yes, I was smoking weed with Hitler. He still has the same beliefs, but he's gotten way more New Agey. He said, "I wouldn't even want to be the Führer now," and I said, "Dog, you are Hitler, but I feel you"

Anyone who's shaken up about Chomsky: I'm sorry, I don't mean to chide you, but you still haven't learned The Lesson. NEVER believe in anyone, ESPECIALLY not yourself. It MAY be permissible to believe in your mom. I don't know her. Yet.

Important to call this shit what it is: ICE is a paramilitary organization carrying out a state-sponsored campaign of ethnic cleansing. They’ve now killed two people and seem to be escalating every day. Just so we’re clear.

thinking of several friends no longer living, all of them men, & all very gifted, distinguished writers, who'd refused to acquire cell phones, disdained email & computers, but managed to make their way with the assistance of spouses or children; in their lifetimes it was still possible to remain "off the grid" --even using, not computers, but typewriters. their independence was a kind of arrogance & did depend upon others' helping them out. with their deaths, there remains no one whom I know in that category of older male curmudgeon disdaining "modern gadgets."

Thanks to @Vinncent for obliquely reminding me of something: a 2019 study established that the European slaughter of indigenous Americans, the genocide to BEGIN all genocides, was so unthinkably enormous that it *changed the temperature of the Earth* bbc.com/news/science-environ…

They took Gaza out of the news so they could kill slowly, with hunger and disease, with exposure and decay, with the inevitable slow murderous burn of pneumonia and and typhoid fever and kwashiorkor and marasmus. Gaza is dying without a flash or bang xitter.cf/amjadhamad_111/status/…

And yes, Dick Cheney was self-evidently involved in preparation for 9/11. He spent a third of his fucking life on it. If you can't admit that Cheney would kill 3,000 people to realize every Nazi fever-dream he spent his life incubating like a sac of spider eggs, I can't help you
