This is such a fucking fantastic film, one of the greatest ever made, all should watch
Watching The Mother and the Whore (1973) with my movie club. Strangely watchable. Young people navigating bad sex and weird relationships during a terrible time in the world - relatable!

The Mother and the Whore
After the French New Wave, the sexual revolution, and the upheavals of May 1968 came the near religiously revered magnum opus by Jean Eustache. In his long-unavailable body of work, ranging from docum...

Egg producers suspect bird flu is traveling through the air.
After a disastrous Midwestern outbreak early this year, we tested that theory and found that where the wind blew, the virus followed.
Vaccines could help, but the USDA hasn’t approved them.

Pretty sure 48-month mayoral terms don't include two months of vacation at the end, so what has the current mayor been up to since his defeat?
Been thinking about this lately. I haven't clocked any public appearances by Harrell since his concession speech.
Seattle mayor Bruce Harrell was putting out at least a press release daily celebrating all the amazing things the mayor's office was doing right up until, let's see, November 3.
Nothing since then, though. Weird!

From where I am standing, I know this is the movement I have been working toward. I feel the rafters shaking and the walls moving. I feel the aftershock of the work that went into Aftyn’s race and how it’s rippling out into red states across the country.

The idea that anarchists created the 8-hour day, as opposed to the CIO and the New Deal, is complete ahistorical bullshit. 99.9% of the workers involved in the 1886 8-hour day protests with the Knights of Labor were not anarchists. In fact, the Knights loathed the anarchists.
You’re confused, again. We’re proud of our combatants. The price paid in dynamite & repression by the anarchist mvmnt freed us from 12 hr. shifts, 6 days p/week. In fact, if we’re inching back towards that reality it’s because the labor mvmnt. has become defanged, thanks to narratives like yours.

No child should go hungry simply because their parents are immigrants. As mayor, I’ll join @newyorkstateag.bsky.social in using every lever of government for the families who fear if they can afford tomorrow’s meals.

Dr. Gupta is our shadow surgeon general, health secretary.
Whether it’s stating the basic truth on the President’s health, correcting RFK’s immoral nonsense on childhood vaccines, and holding their cast of “experts” to account, the time is now to stand up for the medical profession.
I will continue to do across platforms without fear.
