Looking through old posts for some reason. Struck again by how weak Pacino's effort is here.
On the left is the face of a predator nearing the end of a life in which every day, without emotion, he has killed what he eats. On the right is the face of an actor startled by a damp fart.
It's the dead eyes isn't it.
Al Pacino gave it a go but even he was nowhere close.
Miller on the other hand looks more and more like him every day.
The news today, oh boy, the English army had just won the war
This Mexican WWII poster is some of the hardest shit ever

On the left, the refurbished Lincoln bathroom. On the right, picture I took in Saddam Hussein's palace in Basra in 2005.
Rightly, not in their power.
It's framed as "given how things are, they might just get away with this". Requires near-total cynicism about the law and its permeability to politics, so forget about constitutional government if that's where you've ended up.
Not to acknowledge that explicitly is bad writing and bad editing.
Who the fuck let this through? Can't be Micklethwait & Wooldridge, they're long gone.
And anyway at that '24 campaign event Micklethwait stuck to his free trade principles. Didn't pander.

Seen this, Charlie? A response to his King Trump shitting video.
11 days ago. The crown a nice touch. Content from an actual kingdom, have a nice day :)
(The spying case against Stonehouse, not the faking-your-own-death one)
Czech military intelligence expense claims made up much of the case against John Stonehouse, with Stonehouse reasonably claiming that much of the case was made up.
Spray it gold, send it round to the new Oval Office. It'll get a pair of Trump '28 MAGA hats on it, and him showing it off to guests
Note the artist's sensitive rendering of Charlie Kirk's cum face as Jesus reaches round to use the flat palm of his unseen other hand as a fleshlight
This is incredibly homoerotic

The original Shepard Fairey poster: 'Progress'.
The campaign got involved and it was changed to Hope (with Fairey's cooperation). 'Hope' had been successful for Bill Clinton in '92, and tested well in focus groups.
Before he got his current job his main grift was merch.
And the merch is *tragic*.
K$H Patel, on his way to a fancy dress party as an offensive racial stereotype: "Is it cos I is black?"
LMAO LOOK AT THIS PHOTOGRAPH
EVERY TIME I DO IT MAKES ME LAUGH
Jacques Chirac introduced a language quota for records played on French radio. Rappers got the benefit. Accordion players, not so much.
Holbein, Dürer too.
He's twenty years old and WW1 is round the corner.
Known for his unforgiving and often critical depictions of German society during the Weimar Republic, this self-portrait by Otto Dix (1912) pays homage to the work of the Italian Old Masters - the carnation was a popular motif in northern Italian Renaissance painting.
Choosing to address that audience as children. Grande ecole condescension. Quel con.
