Mostly been enjoying the Ninón Sevilla movies currently on the Criterion Channel, enough that I want to do a deeper dive into the golden age of Mexican cinema. And a Harold Lloyd short marred by dog mistreatment and blackface

I don't understand the praise in this article. All I see is lumbering debris further destroying our oceans. Is anything leaching into the water? Certainly this can't be good! Maybe I am wrong? 🤷🏼♀️

I'm very glad Hopkins Street is going to get its bike lane. It should not have taken anywhere near this long or gotten this vicious. Anyway, here's a piece I wrote three years back about how this fight helped precipitate my decision to move out of Berkeley. https://usa.streetsblog.org/2023/05/18/essay-why-even-the-most-progressive-cities-are-failing-their-car-free-residents

Here they are the stupid #Trump #voters. Wouldn't it be better for the #world if these #idiots were forcibly sterilized so that they couldn't spread their evil antipathy any further?

The new Dateline podcast has a cop named Burnham. Hearing Keith Morrison say "Chiseled face, close cropped hair... Burnham was known as the quiet one, cool and circumspect." is kinda all I've ever wanted.
