No comment on the films, most of which I haven’t seen, but it always seemed laughable that whenever they have filmmaker-curated collections on Shudder they mostly pick Shudder originals. Do they think we’re stupid?

This is great. I only saw it once as soon as it hit DVD and was mildly traumatized, but it seems ripe for a rewatch now

Again, it is a full-blown federal felony crime for anyone in the White House or Executive Office of the President to order tax investigations into anyone.

And it's not just a crime to DO it, it's even a federal crime for an employee not to REPORT such an order to the Treasury Inspector General.

Long story short, an actual Nazi doxxing ring. Enough people reported them that they went away for like 12 hours and then Elon personally brought them back. The site is dead. If you’re still on there, go lock your account right now

Roberts has always felt that the suggestion that white people might discriminate on the basis of race is a profound moral injustice, much greater than black people being denied the right to vote bsky.app/profile/jayw...

The dollar amount of the embezzlement crime Le Pen’s party committed, for which she is responsible, over 12 years is roughly the same as what Elon Musk illegally spent on a single state Supreme Court election just yesterday

if the democratic party had a functional propaganda arm it could make a lot of hay of the fact that a non-trivial number of MAGA personalities and politicians are child sex offenders

4/ who they are, whether they’re even American citizens. They all seem to be Thiel and Musk protΓ©gΓ©s. And I’ve had multiple references to their refusing to identify themselves by anything but first name. The rationale given is that they could be doxed.

3/ different pieces fit together. There also seems to be a significant amount of downloading government data onto private servers, etc, totally outside any cybersecurity regime. Additionally it’s unclear to the people inside whether the people doing these things actually work for the US govt…

2/ they already have over key computer systems, payment systems, etc. and with the press picture it’s not that things aren’t getting out. The stuff abt the Treasury payments systems and control over certain computer networks has been reported. It’s more putting together the big picture abt how …

Several conversations today w people in the key executive departments. And while the particulars are hard to pin down my impression is that the Musk take over stuff is considerably worse than is being presented in the press. By this I don’t necessarily things they *done* yet but the level of …

Excited to see John Zorn has a new complete string quartets recording with the JACK Quartet, one of the best modern music ensembles out there. Fantastic performances of some of the most challenging β€” but fun β€” music around. Looney Tunes fans need to listen to Cat O’ Nine Tails

If you are
1) a federal civil servant/contractor ordered not to release scheduled data or reports, or
2) an academic who has lost access to government data in the past week

The corollary to "don't obey in advance" is "don't obey more than you have to" - do the minimum legally required, and make them fight you for everything else

Just days after Trump returned to the White House, Instagram is censoring abortion content. This is what Aid Access' account looks like right now - posts about how to get abortion medication has been blurred out.

It’s cool that Trump and Republicans are just saying openly that they don’t like the concept of civil rights. Anyone who’s not an idiot already knew that, but maybe a few idiots will also realize that

Charlotte’s Place: Living with the Ghost of a VΓ©ritΓ© Pioneer For the filmmaker Charlotte Zwerin, being known as the β€œthird Maysles” was both a calling card and a curse.

In this week's New Yorker, a labor of love. The woman who used to live in my apartmentβ€”and died thereβ€”was named Charlotte Zwerin. She was a jazz buff, a chain-smoker, and a vΓ©ritΓ© pioneer, whose work on "Salesman" and "Gimme Shelter" made her the "third Maysles." www.newyorker.com/magazine/202...
