If @cine-matographe.bsky.social did a set of John Sacret Young scripted movies that'd be aces. Which I'm noting because it's Ace week. Which is dope, almost as dope as a John Sacret Young double feature. I like unlikely big swing guesses, but am always surprised by the end release from @jlalibs.com.

The Tribune reports Elgin cop Jason Lentz posted specific addresses on Facebook for ICE to check out.

He was fired years ago after he posted that Ferguson PO Darren Wilson “Did society a favor” when he shot and killed 18-year-old Michael Brown. Later an arbitrator put Lentz back on the job.

Denazification, like Reconstruction, was like 10% as brutal and thorough as it needed to be.

When you are pure of heart no amount of earnestness is Cringe. When you are a malevolent little freak no amount of sarcasm is enough to make you cool

I like the rallies but not the name. "No kings" sounds nice but doesn't really mean anything, and as you've seen, Trump's guys will just say "yep we are kings deal with it."

Getting people out there is good! Now let's make one an Abolish ICE rally and have it actually mean something!

The phrase "trans activist" is goofy because like 95% of the time it's used it refers to a trans person simply existing.

Media, pointing at a woman buying a coffee: behold, a trans activist.

Woman: buying coffee is not activism stop being so fucking weird

Media: trans activist criticizes media

So let me get this straight. The American government’s plan for getting the people on their side is to kidnap them, starve them, and not pay public servants? Oh also they want to brand anyone who makes fun of them for being pathetic children as terrorists?

No wonder we’re cooked.

Love Vinegar Syndrome, but especially dig all that their partner labels release. Such a range, so many layers and styles of films & filmmaking.
