Q: So you didn't see any survivors after that first strike?
HEGSETH: I did not personally see survivors. The thing was on fire. This is called the fog of war. This is what you in the press don't understand. You sit in your air conditioned offices and plant fake stories in the Washington Post

I cannot express how much this movie really struck me like lightning. Ward hasn’t made a movie in nearly 20 years, which is a tragedy.
With THE UNLOVED celebrating twelve years, this latest video essay from @honorszombie.bsky.social explores RIVER QUEEN, a “film that the world forgot … which little of it ever saw.”

It's the 12th anniversary of The Unloved. Let's go for a ride with Vincent Ward's last fiction film.

Suddenly reminded of the Bob & Ray bit where a man named The Right Honorable G.L. Hummerbeck is run for president, though he hasn't won yet, because in his tribe you're named after the first thing you see as a baby, which happened to be supreme court justice Charles Evans Hughes.

Vanity Fair is now such a bringdown from its glory years of glamorizing the Reagans, publishing heroic portfolio of Bush and his Iraq War mongers, deleting Epstein crimes from Epstein profile, and of course the classic Hitchens women aren't funny column.

Today, Paste Magazine shuttered all its non-music verticals, a choice I am both professionally and personally heartbroken about. Sadly, I am once again looking for a place that wants to let me write about Books and TV on the regular, so hit me up if that’s you or anyone you know.
