FATHER MOTHER SISTER BROTHER: Jarmusch works for Hallmark now?
I did not even know that one! But yeah, THE PURGE guy actually got his first feature released in France. It was not good.
Proud of myself for recalling this particular Hawke film...
I don't see the problem. The kids just prefer Link Wray.
Those words smell like the beach.
This has been Nicolas' Counterpoint.
This is not against the original poster BTW. It is a well-meaning enough sentiment. But if everything is out in the open, there for the taking with no guiding force or resistance to overcome for access, and every opinion is valid, it just validates the status quo.
"Duurrr... you think you're better than me?"
Yes. Yes, I do.
We gave the people all the access. They can see everything they want, can listen to large swathes of the recorded music, knowledge at their fingertips. They don't want to discover. They want mommy to spit the same prechewed goo in their gullet. You get called a gatekeeper for pointing this out.

"I have always tried to live in an ivory. But a tide of shit is beating at its wall, to the point of having it crumble."
Flaubert to Turgenev, Nov. 13th, 1872.

βJe cherche en mΓͺme temps lβΓ©ternel et lβΓ©phΓ©mΓ¨re!β
[I seek at once the eternal and the ephemeral.]
β Georges Perec, Les Revenentes (1972)

"Stupidity being eternal, that I understand. But the same brutes persisting through it all, here's what astounds me."
Gustave Flaubert to George Sand, July 25th, 1871.

I was told the man has a sensibility. Discuss.
Remembering DANIEL AND ANA, the product of a turbid mind.
Listening to someone summarizing the new Michel Franco as if it's an incredibly raunchy joke.
The sordor is almost palpable.

Neither have I. Is it something I want to welcome in my life?
I suppose if you are to go for disgusting might as well go full, erm, boar?
