REVISITING ELSEWHERE
By @DocT___ :
“They are carriers for feelings we knew before we understood the words for them: Awe, mischief, risk, tenderness.
The scenes are pared back and evenly lit so the viewer finishes the story. That space is the point.”
I just named my new pieces below. I’m grateful for your work DocT, available on @vivid_ordinals
RELEGATION
When I was young, I had anger and frustration with so much - feeling the world is failing me. Everything. I didn’t know “the word” for it at the time, but I wanted to send the world into the corner for its failing to stand tall to a certain expected level. This was me, as a child, feeling deep frustration. I had sports as a means to channel the anger. It helped. RELEGATION.
ROBOPHOBIA
Automation. Artificial Intelligence. Humanoids. Genetic Engineering. Autonomous vehicles. Drones.
What will be shaping the minds of our children’s children?
Does one embrace.
Does one fear.
ROBOPHOBIA
It’s the 40th anniversary of Back to School, which features one of the best meta jokes ever.
Rodney Dangerfield hires Kurt Vonnegut to write a paper about Kurt Vonnegut… and Sally Kellerman gives it an F, saying the writer “doesn’t know the first thing about Kurt Vonnegut.”
1. One of the wildest TV fan theories says Breaking Bad is secretly a prequel to The Walking Dead. The clue that started it all? Walter White’s blue meth showing up after the world ends.
Here’s a post explaining the connection between these two shows.
8. Caddyshack (1980)
"Flimsy of plot, filthy of mind, Caddyshack remains a classic - not just the funniest fairway-set comedy of all time, but a peerless platform for the likes of Bill Murray and gag machine Rodney Dangerfield to monkey around as only they know how."

Smokey and the Bandit was a cultural phenomenon: #2 at the 1977 box office (only Star Wars beat it). Trans-Am orders jumped by 50,000+ after release, and it was the biggest driver of CB Radio sales. Plus it’s gorgeous watching Sally Field and Burt genuinely fall in love on screen. And honestly, Burt deserved an Oscar just for keeping a straight face while Jackie Gleason delivered one of the century’s finest comedy performances.
