I’ve been saying for years that whichever political party gets a fourth Rush Hour made is ensured a 50-state landslide in the following election. I’m just sorry that the Democrats were outfoxed again.

To be unhinged and pathetically intense about your fun little obsessions and yearnings is actually very freeing and good for you.

This is a brilliant thread.
It was 62 years ago #OnThisDay in 1963 that President John F. Kennedy was assassinated.
Here's a piece I wrote for the History of the BBC website a couple of years ago about how the BBC covered the news.
I'm quite pleased with this one...

Grief created by Joan Wisdom, November 1967, in the art therapy studio at Netherne hospital, Surrey where she was compelled to live.
Her surviving works express distress & critique the psychiatric system which held power over her & the dehumanisation she experienced within it

Does Lewis Capaldi ever write a happy song? He’s just a male version of Adele. His new single is utterly depressing. Why can’t he write a song like ‘Atmosphere’ by Russ Abbot and cheer us all up

OK tonight I learned that Gaspar Noe brought Dario Argento as his +1 to meet the Pope, and this is possibly the sweetest and the maddest thing to ever happen.
The Pope got to meet Dario Argento! I wonder which of the Three Mothers trilogy is Leo's fav, I'm gonna say Inferno, cos this Pope doesn't seem like a Suspiria kinda guy.
The Pope welcomed a number of Hollywood film stars to the Vatican, where he called cinema a "vehicle of hope".
More than 100 film industry professionals were received at the Apostolic Palace, including Cate Blanchett, Alison Brie and Viggo Mortensen.

There’s a good list of alternatives here but I would strongly recommend Fastmail over Proton as a gmail alternative. I’ve been very happy with it so far and if you’re switching away from Gmail over fears of the US gov having control, Proton is run by a big Trump fan

If you use GMail, AI (Gemini) was turned on yesterday by default and now scans all of your content for machine learning. To turn off, go to Settings>General and scroll down. Uncheck the box for "Smart features."
There's other "Smart" add-ons as well, but that's the one that reads your content.
