It's rather fitting that, less than 24 hours after David Lynch''s passing, the SEVERANCE S2 premiere features many shots of a dark haired guy wandering around corridors. Which was, of course, a visual specialty of the jaw-droppingly terrific S2 finale of TWIN PEAKS. There is no doubt in my mind that generations of future filmmakers will still be richly influenced by him. His work is already classic and part of the canon.

if you voted for trump, or you excuse those who did, people in your orbit know you’re not safe. When the chips are down, you’ll sell out your loved ones and then retreat to your self-exonerating excuses. Of course you will; you did it when the chips weren’t down.

You’re unsafe, and dangerous times are coming. Bye.

One cheer for the @guardian for its decision to quit posting on Twitter.

It would be two cheers if the Guardian told its journalists to stop using -- and thereby supporting -- Musk's toxic business. Nope.

And it would be three cheers if the Guardian stopped embedding Twitter posts in its articles. No such luck there, either.

One out of three is better than zero.

I coined the phrase "moral austerity" to refer to the white liberal idea that human rights and social justice issues can be trimmed back -- at no expense to themselves, of course -- during hard times, politically.

The United States this week will decide whether Israel has made progress toward improving the humanitarian situation in the Gaza Strip and how Washington will respond,.

President Joe Biden's administration told Israel in an Oct. 13 letter signed by Secretary of State Antony Blinken and Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin that the longtime U.S. ally must take steps within 30 days on a series of measures or risk restrictions on American military aid.

I don't think I've ever felt more personally attacked by the country I served than I do right now watching so many people vote for a man that is blatantly antithetical to so many things I care about that make this country great. From him wanting to abolish the department of education (I have an autistic son who benefits from federal programs) to glorifying Hitler's generals to calling wounded veterans suckers and losers, I feel like "I" am his enemy within.
