I was radicalized by the classic Subhuman's EP "Time Flies But Aeroplanes Crash".

You can "hear about" vaccines causing autism, or immigrants gaming the system, or trans women winning a game, or drug runners in the Caribbean, and the guys making sure you hear about it have a Solution too.

This is actually the perfect post, the lodestone. All the Right has to do is make us "hear about people" and the conversation, the "happy medium", lurches in their favored direction.

There is a happy medium to strike though. When you hear about ppl who have lived in a country for decades, are citizens, and don’t speak the language, that’s not ok either. Many countries require you to pass a basic language test to become a citizen. That seems reasonable.

And in response to the "terrorist fist jab", which actually really happened on the country's most popular news channel, democrats ran a terrorist?

The media smeared Mitt Romney as Hitler. Then Republicans thought, well we might as well run Hitler.

Now, more than ever, you have to be a weird little pervert who makes art of questionable quality. You need to be driven crazy by the flesh. Because, as we all learned from Cronenberg's The Fly, the computers are not made crazy by the flesh. They can't do it like us.

My favorite concert film in a walk. I demand an IMAX rerelease.

That Humungus was the Ayatullah of Rock n Rullah implies pre-Mad-Max Australia had a Shah of Rock n Rullah

See, this to me, is what social media is for, and I need to remember that when tempted to post my lukewarm political crap.

So I haven't looked into Jean Rollin's politics, but he was raised by his mother in a throuple which included Georges Bataille lol.

"Jean Rollin, Dépense, Wine Zombies, Breasts, and Potlatch," in this essay, I will...

Older white guy tells you he only reads non-fiction. Run!

This was fun, though not especially as a zombie movie. A sort of anti-anti-immigrant front populaire between the Resistance and 68ers in the French countryside advocating natural wine techniques and beer drinking.

Movie poster for Les Raisins de la Mort. A screaming woman is gripped by a putrid hand also squeezing grapes. Zombies run amok underneath the image.

Rabbits aren't habitual carrot eaters, but that got ingrained in the culture because Bugs Bunny was inspired by Clark Gable's character in the film It Happened One Night, where he's introduced standing in a field munching on a carrot.
