The crown is baiting blood. This Saturday, No Kings will face provocateurs, dirty tricks, and staged chaos. Some of ours may take the bait—handing Krasnov the headline he wants. We need to spread this—on Bluesky and beyond. De-escalation tips included.

Yes and yes, and yes he definitely did! Thank you so much for your kindness, generosity, and all of this… you made my whole year!
🎶😊🎬
Oh that’s heartbreaking… 🥺
“Marrying the music to the heartbeat of the film” is wonderful, just right, like those two perfect examples. Amazing to hear you describe it that way, how it’s always felt and spoke to me and so many of us! I’m sensitive to that aspect, and so grateful and moved when it’s done so very well.
A favorite, song and video. 👏
Oh I’m so happy you loved it, thank you so much! And that is amazing to know about how he used music… that shows so much… his tone and pacing are always exquisite, steady, true. And I featured music from In the Heat of the Night on my tribute to Sidney Poitier & Civil Rights, so he was there too! 👏
Hooray, thank you! I just did and sorry, the string seems to have landed out of order but I numbered them. 😊 Your dad has meant so much to my life! So happy and honored to be able to tell you! Thank you again!!
1/3 “And lastly, from Hal Ashby’s 1979 movie, ‘Being There.’ Based on the 1970 Jerzy Kosinski novel, it uses Deodato’s 1972 jazz fusion reworking of the 1896 composition of Richard Strauss… that was also used famously in Kubrick’s 1968 ‘2001: A Space Odyssey.’…
3/3 “Plus, it’s a total jam, and perfectly captures the moments in the movie when the simple-minded gardener takes his first steps into the real world.”
2/3 “That is a lot of dates… but that makes sense too, because Strauss had been inspired to write it based on Friedrich Nietzsche’s philosophical novel of eternal recurrence, Thus Spoke Zarathustra from 1883…
@leighmmac19.bsky.social our station’s archive only makes our previous shows playable for two weeks, so this one can’t be played anymore, but you can see the list of songs and how your dad’s movie is my big closer! And here’s what I said about it (in three parts - hopefully in order 😊)…
Oh and yes 100% same about Covid - after I thought that about “not getting out much” I thought, well maybe there’s a place for us too… and maybe we’ve found it. 😊
Leigh, my goosebumps have goosebumps seeing that your dad is Hal Ashby! One of my favorite movies ever is ‘Being There,’ and just a few weeks ago I played my “movies” show… if it’s okay, I’ll @ you on that post and let you know what I said about your dad. 😊
Same! I thought, “I don’t get out much, huh, bless my heart.” 😄
