In 2024 I released my first new album in 20 years. Of all the creative endeavors I have undertaken in my life, this is by far the one of which I am the most proud. deg-records.bandcamp.com/album/again-...

I have been waiting for it to cool off here in Texas to make chili. It was 90° today.

That’s interesting to hear. The trailer makes it look like a Melissa McCarthy movie. I had zero interest until reading this.

This is some Anne Frank shit right here. In 2025. In America.

My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.

This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

On the other side was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for his help.
"I wasn't planning on letting her stay, but I didn't know what the hell was going on," the man said of his Venezuelan migrant neighbors. But he quickly relented. The little girl was inconsolable and hid under his bed.
"I didn't want them to take her," said the man, who didn't want to be named because he fears he'll be targeted by federal authorities for his actions.
"I gave her my bedroom, and I just told her,
'Just stay there. Don't open, don't, shh, just stay quiet," he recalled telling the mom and daughter as he choked back tears.

I own this on DVD but I’ve never watched it.

Walking in to a Walmart to buy my own 3D blu ray was one of the coolest experiences I've ever had. I'll tell what was even cooler, though... a couple of years later when I found it on the shelf of my local public library!

Steven DeGennaro @stevendegennaro.bsky.social · 20d

Yeah. None of the secret screenings were very secret.

Steven DeGennaro @stevendegennaro.bsky.social · 21d

I’m convinced it’s going to be this. But it’s probably Gore Verbinski.

What’s a horror movie that made you cry?

Steven DeGennaro @stevendegennaro.bsky.social · Aug 23

The Lord of the Rings. Watching the behind-the-scenes docs on the DVD are what gave me the motivation to start working in the film industry.

What movie has had the most impact on your actual literal life? Not necessarily your favorite, but the one that’s most influenced or shaped something in your trajectory?

I had this exact same thought just yesterday. The inverted pyramid has become just a pyramid.
