Solid week of fun, informative and fascinating films. Nice to be able to return to Bluesky after our state imposed draconian age-verification requirements that apparently convinced Bluesky to block access to its site.
As an atheist/agnostic, I find this Christian outlet column notable: "If evangelical supporters of Trump value the Bible more than their political allegiances, they should be outraged and repulsed, and publicly voice their disapproval over Trump’s behavior."

Racist Administration Protects Murdering Racists
Medgar Evers’ killer was a Klansman, but Trump administration says stop calling him a racist mississippitoday.org/2026/02/05/m...
As a professional journalist for decades, arresting Don Lemon & other journalists is extraordinarily concerning. This is another undeniable example of how the Trump administration is a fascist regime.

Trump is clearly begging Congress to use the 25th Amendment to remove him from office.

Springsteen has never hesitated to raise his voice in support of democracy & to help those being marginalized in the United States, whether veterans returning home from Vietnam, those in low-income populations, or many other groups. It's time for more to speak out.

"It’s a nation that’s poorer, meaner, dumber, and armed with nukes manned by Christian nationalists who believe that the Second Coming is imminent. All of this because Texas is redrawing their Congressional maps? Actually, yes." michaelianblack.substack.com/p/fuckery-of...

Here's a little ray of sun to counter all the darkness we must encounter these days!
If you voted for a racist for president, that means you’re a racist.
This has been a public service announcement.

“It is an enormous relief that the court has sided with academic freedom, free speech, and due process in its recent decision,” said Deanna Kreisel, UM professor and member of the United Campus Workers.
Worth remembering that Terence Stamp was the son of a ship's stoker.
Stamp desperately wanted to act, after falling in love with movies as a kid, and it was a scholarship to Drama School that allowed him to walk that path.
Every time arts cuts are made, they rob us of more Terence Stamps.
LOVE Nashville. One of those movies I have to revisit every couple of years.

Sorry. No sympathy.
