Check out the divide new york caucus, it’s hilarious

Now take a break

I take every chance I get to recommend Dark Water (2002). It’s a supernatural movie that takes advantage of our inherent fear of drowning, but more importantly, it’s about the main character’s struggle to hold onto her daughter in the face of the paranormal events she’s experiencing, the paranoia they’re causing her, and a custody battle with her ex in the aftermath of their divorce. Maybe I was just going through a hard time when I first watched it, but it had me in tears

frog and cranberries it must be fall

I like Aldi but I wish I could get tofu there

I haven’t seen it, thanks for the rec

Solaris (Tarkovsky, 1972). Easily one of the best movies I’ve ever seen. It’s available for free on YouTube with subtitles in English and a few other languages. Silent Running (Trumbull, 1972). This movie inspired the original set of Mystery Science Theater 3000. It’s not a masterpiece but it made me really emotional. The Fly (Neumann, 1958). A classic in sci-fi horror. There’s a 1986 remake by Cronenberg, but I can’t vouch for it as I haven’t seen that version yet. Asteroid City (Anderson, 2023). Very Wes Anderson. Made my eyes hurt when I saw it in the theater. 2001: A Space Odyssey (Kubrick, 1968). A visually stunning classic featuring evil robots. M3GAN (Johnstone, 2022). A horror story with a sci-fi premise. I like when robots get to be completely selfish.

Late Victorian Holocausts looks fascinating, thanks for bringing it up.

You’re right. I overreacted out of frustration, but it’s true that misogyny is not a necessary part of manhood, and that men can and should be educated out of it. We CAN hold them accountable, and we do need to, but I’m frustrated that it rarely happens. Most people seem to think that misogyny is not a big deal

How so? Misogyny is not inherent to being a man, but when men are surrounded by a culture that insists they’re better than women by virtue of being men, they come to believe it
