“I think people ought to know that we’re anti-fascist, we’re anti-violence, we're anti-racist and we’re pro-creative. We’re against ignorance.” Joe Strummer on The Clash.

Nicolas Cage was a 5 star-WTF in VAMPIRE KISS. Washington Post: "Cage acts as if he has been taking hits off of Dennis Hopper's gas mask. There's no way to overstate it: This is scorched-earth acting — the most flagrant scenery chewing I've ever seen." And that's why it was a fun watch! 👻

If a business emails asking me to "take a quick survey" to help them improve their customer support, the least they could do is give me a $5 credit, for taking my time!! Oh, right! They want us to work for free. 👻

NBC interviewed some of the inflatable-costumed protestors in Portland www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news... "Protester Jack Dickinson, known locally as the Chicken Man said he wanted to counter the show of force with farce." @nbcnews.com

Costumed protesters in Portland defy description of the city as a 'war zone'

Dancing frogs, peacocks and unicorns outside the federal immigration building present a joyful contrast to the Trump administration's portrait of the Oregon city, they say.

Outtakes from Elliott Gould and Grover’s December 1974 TV Guide cover. From @gabyfilmmaker.bsky.social comment on Twitter:

- Did you get those photos of Elliot Gould and Grover?
- Sure did, boss, real fuckin' sexy just like you asked.
- What?

@technonoir.bsky.social‬ My hero!!! You just saved hours of my life with this info!

How to save your iPhone photos as jpg rather than heic!

Techno “Noir” Obscura @technonoir.bsky.social · 19d

You can either open it and convert to jpeg or opt to have your photos as JPEGs (in Settings, go to Camera > Formats > change from high efficiency (heic) to most compatible (jpeg)). Done. Sometimes this switches back after installing updates, too.

1981's DISCIPLINE is my fave King Crimson album; Adrian added his angular style to Fripp's textures. Adrian played with many greats! Zappa, Bowie, Talking Heads, Tom Tom Club, Laurie Anderson, Crimson.... am I forgetting somebody? www.youtube.com/playlist?lis...

Respond to a fan email:

Nothing ever is perfect, you gotta make art that's "good enough," then let it go. Same is true of a broken heart. Let it go, let it float into the past. There's nothing else you can do. Tell yourself a story about it, a story that helps you feel better, and then move on...

They're all hacks. Happily spreading the misinformation. Media is complicit in the overthrow of democracy.
