Raging that I’ve just found out that Kubrick was lined up to direct a biopic on Napoleon, but lost his financing because of the commercial failure of the 1970 film Waterloo. Waterloo fucking ROCKS.

If it’ll make the mods/admins just shut the fuck up about it. do it.

I love Giraffes, they are kings.

Also, if I had an option to punch any animal, it would be a giraffe. Need a boxing glove and a ladder.

I Think You Should Leave with Tim Robinson is the best thing Netflix has produced. In other news I’m re-watching it for the 100th time.

Forcing the clerks to read the entire bill is a great bit. Very funny.

In the grand scheme of things the sexual harassment shit against Cuomo is small fry compared to killing those old folks. But that’s where the media attention has to go since every leader and every state has so much blood on their hands. Can’t draw attention to that.

Detroit: I Do Mind Dying is a great book about some of the organizing in the factories. I highly recommend it.

here’s an upcoming recruiting campaign / event i’m brainstorming with my org.

April 30 - Biden’s 100th Day. Do an action /protest etc around Biden’s failures. Specifically $2,000 checks. Really agitate the fuck outta people to get them to engage with politics outside of the dems. bring it to local context too. give people clear call to action for tomorrow. no dems allowed to speak.

May 1 - May Day! Host online info sessions, good vibes, clear calls to action for our org. We can ‘launch’ some zines or something. Offering a little up for everyone, get some membership going.

i think it’s a pretty solid idea.

I’m enjoying my new routine of watching Democracy Now in the mornings. Sure it’s mostly hell, but you get the occasional nice story like Neera withdrawing.

My inshallah usage comes from my time in the middle east. it’s such a great phrase that can be used for anything. Walla (by god) and Habibi (my love) are classics to throw in there too.
