RIP Diane Keaton...

No words, just good odds...

I loved OBAA, It's an emotional roller coaster that lasts more than two hours. And I can relate. I agree, every day is a battle, and that gives us hope to be better people and improve the world.
By the way, your shoul watch The Lost Bus, with Matt McConaughey, it's another great movie. Best!

Let me into the pool of your eyes

I won't force you, baby

Immediacy is the order of the day. We have become prey to information from different sources: print media, digital media, influencers, heads of state, propaganda, and there isn't enough time or space to analyze the information and determine what is true and what is post-truth.

Let's rethink.

"Books should be analyzed rather than accepted. By considering the world as an "enigma" that we try to interpret, doubt becomes the tool that allows us to see the lack of an underlying truth."

Umberto Eco

"Either I no longer understand what is happening, or what I understood has already passed." Carlos Monsiváis, Mexican writer.

Martín Hernández @marcohen.bsky.social · 4d

What if what we have learned from the past never really happened? More than the future, the past seems uncertain; it is no longer what it was, and it is prudent to ask ourselves: Does knowing more about the past mean ignoring less?

This is a genuine question...

“It is only our imagination, not our senses, that continually confronts us with failure and the false belief that we can rise from the miserable pulp of backwardness on our own.” ( Satan Tango, 1985), László Krasznahorkai.

“The world has been the way it is for a long time; it hasn't become bad now. And now I wonder if the world really is bad. Perhaps, in addition to everything else, it is also bad” (2024).

László Krasznahorkai, the Nobel Prize for readers who need beauty in hell.

“We resist because we don't know how to do anything else, because the act of resisting is the only thing that gives us the illusion that we still have control, even though we know that control is a lie.” The Melancholy of Resistance (1989).
László Krasznahorkai

Like André Bretón, Leonora Carrington, Salvador Dalí, Octavio Paz, or Carlos Monsiváis, László Krasznahorkai would be fascinated (or dismayed) to visit Mexico, a country, culture, and idiosyncrasy very close to its literature.

“People don't need prophets, but false prophets. These people always oppressed under all regimes, refuse to admit the truth. The rebellion of these social strata has become anarchic due to impotence, so they only seek the destruction of what existed before. People need to be lied to. L Krasznahorkai

🎧 HOLDING BACK THE YEARS…

~Simply Red~

🎶🎻🎼🎸 Holding back the years

Thinking of the fear I've had so long

When somebody hears

Listen to the fear that's gone

Strangled by the wishes of pater
Hoping for the arms of mater

Get to me the sooner or later, oh…🎵🎸🎶🎻🎼

I want to share this great song by one of the darkies of the old American rockers, Roy Orbison, from 1961.

The song was covered by The Fools, Nick Cave, and Jeff Lynne, among others. Enjoy!

if you want to understand tailoring, you only need to watch mid-century movies, when actors were dressed by tailors, not brands. in the 1944 film cover girl, gene kelly's suit drapes beautifully, moving with him, not against him. collar stays on his neck, even as he dances.
