I am the co-host - with my friend and comrade @danielharper.bsky.social - of a podcast called (rather eccentrically) 'I Don't Speak German'. It's about the far-right... which, sadly, is a much less niche category than when we started in 2019. idontspeakgerman.libsyn.com
I Don't Speak German
Daniel Harper is a researcher who goes where few others can bear to go: he listens to what the reactionaries - from the IDW to the modern day Nazis - say to each other in *their* safe spaces! In this...

'Sanguinarium' is under-baked and moralistic about plastic surgery (yawn) but has some good horror sequences; I like the good witch. 'Musings of a Cigarette Smoking Man' is the best episode of Season 4 so far. 'Tunguska' is actually really upsetting in places. Season 4 seems to be picking up.

I think Tarantino can be an interesting filmmaker, but I've wanted him to shut up with his "master of all cinema history" bullshit for years. It delights me that going after Matthew Lillard is what finally got movie fans to collectively tell him to fuck off.
Matthew Lillard reacts to Quentin Tarantino's comments about him

"Quentin Tarantino says he doesn't like me as an actor ... it hurts your feelings, it fucking sucks, and he wouldn't say that to Tom Cruise ... or a top-line actor ... It's humbling, and it hurts"

The powerless 'must'. You hear it a lot from lefts and libs, etc. The Dems / Labour 'must' do X, Y, and Z... all with no actual force at all. All that these 'musts' require is for us to live in a completely different world, for institutions to magically change their structural role and character.

The way Mulder physically bullies Krycek really annoys me. It's pathetic. Whatever the provocation, it reveals a fundamental meanness within Mulder.

"Why are you talking about the genocide I support in your name that is being funded with your money? Don't you realise other people, not acting in your name, over whom you exercise no actual or potential influence, are also doing bad things?"

Serious, adult political discourse at its finest.

Men aren't more lonely than women but the loneliness epidemic is real. Millions are in isolation, it's capitalist individualism, & disability is isolating. Lots of folks are really alone. But it's not gendered, that framing is patriarchy, babying men like their unhappiness is everyone else's burden.
According to Pew Research and a few other stats, the loneliness epidemic isn’t disproportionately affecting men over other genders.

I have a feeling that men have been the squeaky wheel over the last few years.

If anything, we have a loneliness epidemic because more people are (barely) surviving.

Yes, drugs should be legal and landlords shouldn't. Yes.
🔥 Starmer in The Observer: "The Green party thinks it’s all right to sell drugs and there should be no restrictions. So somebody could sell drugs outside my children’s school but, if you’re a landlord, it should be unlawful. That’s nuts. They’re dangerous."

Rory Stewart is just another version of the kind of politician Boris Johnson is, i.e. someone with public recognition and perception entirely based on aesthetics and appearance, and media complicity with his performance.
Rory Stewart is on the side of the good guys, everyone!

They are running the government according to the logic of right-wing grievance media. I cannot emphasize that enough. The point is to create content, and they don't see an actual difference between dunking on Sabrina Carpenter, passing legislation, and bombing other countries.
I don't really know what the administration hopes to gain by picking fights with the most well-liked pop artists in the United States. You're just generating backlash for no discernible reason outside of owning the libs.
Sabrina Carpenter ratioed the White House after it used her song in an ICE video.

The WH deleted the post…but now it’s back with a new ICE video, this time using an altered clip from Carpenter’s SNL monologue.

I found Westminster Abbey’s gaudy, dull imperialism mostly depressing—except for this blue battle hedgehog at the foot of the tomb of a 16th century noblewoman. Look, it’s such a mighty hedgehog they’re holding it back with heavy chain! The once and future hedgehog.

I was bored last night so I watched an episode of OG Star Trek where they picked up Charlie, a traumatised teenager with godlike abilities who only wants people to love him, but is incapable of doing anything funny or nice, so he just destroys everything in fits of rage to hide his shame, hey Elon

This is bizarre but also an example of how the US corporate media as a whole treats Trump. They seem compelled by a kind of submissive herd instinct to be his stenographers and loud hailers. Somehow he fascinates them.
Oh my god in the scenes where she interviews Trump she just quotes him in full verbatim. Why would you include this in your book?!

She's allegedly this master of working high-level sources but she lets him filibuster for minutes on end. The interview produces nothing.

X Files season 4 is... not doing well so far. Home is nasty garbage, Teliko is a pointless remake of various previous episodes but with extra racism, Unruhe is another retread with some good stuff amid the muddle, and Field Where I Died is hilariously pompous and silly.
