I realise that reading vast amounts of fiction, and buying about three times more than even I can read, is neither a substitute for therapy nor a solution to everything out there. However, in my defence, just fucking *look* at everything out there.

the book is Revolutionary Yiddishland. I'd say that The Bund, a Graphic History of Jewish Labour Resistance, is more accessible as an intro text for anyone unfamiliar with the politics of that era

saw the new FANTASTIC FOUR movie and was PULLED OUT OF THE MOVIE by the ubiquitous use in the sixties of characters HIGH-FIVING EACH OTHER
the high-five was invented in 1977 by gay baseball player Glenn Burke (and became a gay shibboleth til the straights stole it) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_five
the high-five was invented in 1977 by gay baseball player Glenn Burke (and became a gay shibboleth til the straights stole it) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_five
![The high five is a hand gesture whereby two people simultaneously raise one hand and slap the flat of their palm against the other.[2] The gesture is often preceded verbally by a phrase like "Give me five", "High five", or "Up top". Its meaning varies with the context of use but can include as a greeting, congratulations, or celebration.
There are many origin stories of the high five,[3] but the first and two most documented candidates are Dusty Baker and Glenn Burke of the Los Angeles Dodgers professional baseball team on October 2, 1977, and Wiley Brown and Derek Smith of the Louisville Cardinals men's college basketball team during the 1978–1979 season.[4][5]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:ng53ikph73puxk3z4hova3a6/bafkreift6phx7s6ezqv6bumiyp5s7mutrc4xlbi6sdqyvc5sop4h53f6j4@jpeg)

For Times Like These, my go-tos are Daniel Cabot Puts Down Roots by Cat Sebastian and the oeuvre of @alexandrarowland.bsky.social , especially Yield Under Great Persuasion. Both are beautifully queer and breathtakingly compassionate books about choosing to do better.

watched this because of the review below and had a great time. but this also reinforced my oldest person opinion that we used to know how to light and shoot movies so much better than we do now
and wrote about Night of the Hunter for its anniversary. It's the anti psycho in some ways; a slasher which sees patriarchy, rather than woman and queer people, as the killer. www.splicetoday.com/moving-pictu...
