Happy Birthday, sir.

It was refreshing to see an Italian film shot with live sound, and not dubbed. Somewhere, André Bazin was smiling.
Because it was kept in Russia since the 20th century, this painting remained relatively unseen outside the Soviet Union until its final years.

It's notable that Sen. Ossoff is pressing this attack in a tight re-election fight in a purple state. The rest of the party needs to pay attention.
Happy #SupercorpSunday to the #Supercorp shippers who don’t hate A.I.
Looks like Holmes and Moriarty did the bygones bit.
Hath not a Jew eyes? Hath not a Jew hands, organs,
dimensions, senses, affections, passions? Fed with
the same food, hurt with the same weapons, subject
to the same diseases, healed by the same means,
warmed and cooled by the same winter and summer, as
a Christian is?

Well, Trump talks a lot without saying anything. Maybe it’s the same thing.

How many people know the context of this shot?
Looks delicious!
Graceland. When it came out, in 1986, it was quite a surprise, even considered "risky" and "experimental" by some people. Simon flirted with African-influenced music but the result was extremely successful; joyous and uplifting. Still a great listen after all these years.
