Hot take: every elected official & every judge should have to meet with everyday constituents for two (2) hours every week. Just whoever signs up, decided by lottery. And each constituent gets a full 5 minutes. The official has to sit there and listen - absolutely not allowed to leave the room.

Reading collections of short stories is easier than reading some novels. I've read novels with no chapter breaks or chapters were 100 pages long. When you want a quick bathroom read or before sleep read, short stories do very well... Or you could just do audiobooks. I do those too.

I'm really not interested in new movies much anymore. Especially since it all became a right wing playground. And if Paramount/Skydance ends up with Warner Bros, I think I'm done until some trust-busting is done, or at least til the idiot is out of office.

If you fall for a billionaire telling you to hate your neighbors, especially if you claim to be Christian, I don't know, man. That's pretty stupid.

Getting my 5th tooth extraction today. This one is gonna be replaced by a bridge with the two surrounding teeth in a month or so. In the past I got 2 replaced by implants and 2 were back molars, so I just didn't get them replaced by anything.

Bought some Criterion 4Ks from the current sale. Upgraded from non-Criterion DVDs of Three and Four Musketeers and This Is Spinal Tap. Added Guillermo Del Toro's Pinocchio and Vittorio De Sica's Shoeshine. Both of those take place in fascist 1940s Italy, oddly enough.

Song has been stuck in my head all week.
"Where's my mouth, man, this eating is rough on the shirts
Gee, I'm sorry about the thermometer, nurse
Would you tell me again, which are girls, which are guys
Gee, I thought that this finger meant so long, goodbye"

Hard for me to motivate myself to do as much as play a video game or watch a movie these days. Just want to lay around and hope my back doesn't hurt too much or my arm doesn't go numb.

Ya know, I'll vote for the guy who said horrible things in a fit of anger and later apologized over the guy who is my current Attorney General in my state who fights for Trump and not for the people of his state.

I never got to ride Steel Phantom, but it's successor, Phantom's Revenge remains one of the best coasters I've ridden. And I've ridden 277 of them. This is a great documentary on both coasters.

"This fucking sucks" and "all is lost" are two different sentences.
Don't say the second when you mean the first.

After watching Over The Edge, I have a new movie that's included in my favorites. And you can see its influence on Dazed and Confused.

Considering getting a VPN, but with my luck they'll have illegalized it within a couple years like Europe wants to do. (The place, not the band.)

This weekend's film watching has a theme. Mid-to-late 70s kids and teens misbehaving. 3 of these movies are favorites of mine. I have yet to see Over The Edge. Watching Detroit Rock City is also being watched in tribute to Ace Frehley. RIP

Well shit... Probably the most talented member of Kiss, and definitely the most entertaining. Had gone through long periods of drug and alcohol abuse that by the 2000s had affected his guitar playing somewhat, but he was so cool back in the day.

This place is hard to come to lately. So I don't. My mental health can't take it. I know things are bad. I don't need every post getting me more anxious and depressed about it. So I'm going to avoid here for the foreseeable future. Should do that for reddit too...

I was planning to cancel my Netflix finally, but now that Elon Musk is ordering people to because he's pissed a show that was cancelled 2 years ago had a trans character, I'm gonna keep it for now.
