@snpal2000 @CLTguy420 go away nobody wants your AI bullshit here you sub-mental cretin

[brad @br_hanford]

@LincolnRestler is it "heroism" when NYPD helps ICE kidnap our neighbors? when they brutalize anyone who dissents to the actions of our pedo murder empire? how is this cop worship in any way consistent with an anti-ICE or anti-Trump stance?

[brad @br_hanford]

@LincolnRestler dude, in what fucking world were you elected to spread Tisch copaganda? you should be doing everything in your power to strip this gang of organized Nazi criminals holding our city hostage of all their resources and capabilities. Never voting for you again

@bronco7732 The Student Prince in Old Heidelberg is the masterpiece of his silent era, certainly Tier 1 IMO.

Jacques Rivette on David Lynch and Fire Walk With Me

[brad @br_hanford]

I cannot even begin to put into words what his art meant to me, the joy I've taken in sharing it with others, the ways it presented a vision of the world that we all felt so deeply but that nobody else could articulate. Heartbroken but so grateful that we got so much from him

David Lynch has died at 78, per Sabrina Sutherland.

I'm very sad, of course, but living nearly eight decades while creating art made with shockingly few compromises to outside interests, and *then* having that art be meaningful to a vast number of people, is as close to a 'W' as anyone gets in this life.

[Will 🦥 Menaker @willmenaker]

Never. Oh, never.Nothing will die. The stream flows, the wind blows, the cloud fleets, the heart beats.

[helmet girl @sbodrojan]

David Lynch has reasonable claim to being the most important American director since 1950. moreover, his movies felt like they were made just for you, no matter who you were. They whispered secrets no one else knew. At one point, everybody’s favorite director was David Lynch.

@rick_paulas I recall Old Stanley’s being pretty good

For all their looking back, our favorite films of the year don’t engage in thoughtless nostalgia for an earlier time. #BestOf2024 https://t.co/SaN39ItBpK
