I don’t feel like anything I say is powerful enough to make a difference, but I will NOT be silent.
I will use my art.
I will use my voice.
I will learn, and
I will resist.

We need a full and complete investigation into Renee Good’s death. The DOJ is refusing to do so. It’s yet another disgraceful cover-up.

Hands, more hands, and the occasional foot. All by Federico Barocci, who they called the man with the hands. Well, not really, but they could have! Today is his day.

I don’t like clutter or “crap” especially kitschy little things taking up space.
But … look at his little bones!

Just realized how perfectly the lyrics to Iron Man fit RDJ as Dr Doom.
Nobody wants him
He just stares at the world
Planning his vengeance
That he will soon unfurl

Watching some absurd early films. In this case, #PanickyPicnic (1909). It’s more a vehicle for experimental visuals and trick photography.

Psst! Hey kid! Want some #DanseMacabre? (1922)
Some great visuals here in such a short film. One of the first to sync music and imagery. And a major influence on #InterviewWithTheVampire

#Elio was the first #Pixar movie I didn’t like. Love the concept, the use of Sagan’s voice, and Kate Mulgrew talking about Voyager: chills! But the pacing was rushed, the story was water thin, and consequences, and character moments felt shallow. And honestly, I didn’t like the main character Elio.

#TheShining only it’s 1921 and the name of the movie is #ThePhantomCarriage
Fantastic film, and free to watch on YouTube, so no excuses.

Every season has some really great stand out moments, but season five of Stranger Things just seems to be repeating old ideas. The worst part, Holly Wheeler. Way too much focus on this character. #StrangerThings #Season5

#TheVampireDancer – 1912
My understanding is that this print exists on paper, having been transferred from the original film, and that none of the actual original film still exists.
It’s on YouTube and is worth checking out. The copy I watched had no accompanying music, so I listened to Tool.

I truly misss having someone to freak out over paintings with.
Very little in the world gives me greater pleasure than standing in front of a painting and being overwhelmed by it.

I never knew until recently, that cousin Itt spelled his name with two Ts. Although, apparently they only use one T in newer “iterations.” (See what I did there?)
