I follow artists, journalists, shitposters, cute animals, and people who talk about politics, comics, and RPGs. I will also follow stone cold weirdos with questionable views because I like weird ideas, no matter where they come from. Follows are not endorsements!

I loved Altered States as an alienated teen, and this review does it justice:

One year ago, I started the monthly column Cult Of Criterion.

Today, I celebrate that anniversary by writing about a movie where a guy gets so high he monkeyfies himself. No, not an Aaron Rodgers biopic, but Ken Russell’s Altered States www.avclub.com/cult-of-crit...

Cult Of Criterion: Altered States

A relatively mild Ken Russell film, Altered States is also one of the wildest studio wide releases Hollywood's ever gambled on.

Random acts of violence and cruelty. Why this person? What's her crime? The lesson is clear: annoy the goons of the state, and it might go poorly for you.

We really don't give kids the credit they are due.

Global politics, adult relationships, these things are hard to explain. What's hard to understand about The Hobbit?

I really believe that huge majorities of Americans don’t want masked soldiers shooting priests in the street. They don’t want naked children ripped out out of their apartments in the middle of the night and handcuffed. We win by making sure these stories get told.

The same people who insisted devout Catholic Joe Biden was leading a “war on Christianity” are now cheering Trump on as his armed goons assault clergymen.

WATCH: Trump’s lawless Ice goons shoot an unarmed priest in the head with a pepper ball. Completely out of control.

I imagine the technology is really ancient because there hasn't been a "need" to fix it.

Is there, in theory, a better way that could be developed, given the advances in computer science since the technology was invented?
