Celebrating a pretty wonderful day with some Chicago deep dish… here in LA. Just need to be wearing a Portland frog suit to complete the trifecta!

@crobertcargill.bsky.social Hey, man. I'm Seeing Black Phone 2 later tonight, and might make it a horror marathon, just a little ahead of Halloween. Anything you'd recommend?

Young Republicans just FYI - your ancestors fought the Nazis and died for it; not the opposite

Proud to have one the shortest looking names on here. Not the shortest. But ONE of the shortest.

I’m not sure what having war monger leaders actually accomplishes in 2025. Should have left that shit in 1925 imho

Yo stop killing people and start killing people

For those of you keeping score, 18-22 year-old students calling for an end to slaughter in Gaza are so racist they need to be expelled or deported, but 24-35 year-olds celebrating Hitler, rape, and, um, racism are just kids being kids so chill.

Also, racism is over so no need for Voting Right Act.

JD Vance brushes off racist texts by adults in Republican group chat as ‘what kids do’

Vice-president downplays messages such as ‘I love Hitler’ in chat by 24 to 35-year-olds to ‘stupid jokes’

I’m gonna wait for Yotēi to show up on PS+ in like a year and by the I will have purged Shadows from my memory and have a fresh experience

David Ridker @davidridker.bsky.social · 6d

I mean fair enough, the track record is pretty abysmal, but Shadows is actually pretty good somehow, hopefully they realize what worked and reintegrate it into future releases.

David Ridker @davidridker.bsky.social · 6d

I already played Assassin’s Creed Shadows this year so that’s my excuse for not being interested in Ghosts of Yotei

We had a great response at the Silicon Beach Film Festival at the Chinese theater

David Ridker @davidridker.bsky.social · 6d

The film will live there unless we get attention for my next few films and I can rerelease it on a service like the Criterion Channel or Mubi so a more art house audience can appreciate what we did.

A Spy in the House of Go-Go will live on my YouTube channel as a full feature film supporting my other weird recordings and Q&As

Jim Jarmusch's gentle, Golden Lion-winning triptych "Father Mother Sister Brother" balances the director's sardonic wit with a wistfulness for awkward, imperfect family reunions. A lovely trio of thematically inter-connected memories. #NYFF63 observer.com/2025/10/movi...

Screening at NYFF: Jim Jarmusch’s ‘Father Mother Sister Brother’

This gentle drama—which won the coveted Golden Lion at the Venice Film Festival—seems unassuming at first but builds its three semi-related sagas both gradually and melodically,.

Breaking news: A federal judge plans to temporarily block the Trump administration’s plans to lay off thousands of federal workers during the government shutdown, indicating she’ll probably side with unions, which have argued that the dismissals were illegal.
