Umbrella will release the restoration in an exclusive 4K Collector's Edition with the assistance of co-director and star @alexwinter.com, including a slew of interviews and never-before-seen extras! Freek Land awaits 🪱
- a gargantuan economic development that healthier societies would be well positioned to exploit politically. but we have xenophobia and hyper policing as our de facto climate policy instead of managed fossil fuel phase out. this is not an accident
- Solar energy has consistently been underestimated. Today, it adds more capacity/yr to global grid than any other source in history. If trend continues, solar will deliver more electricity generation/yr than any technology before it. Graph from @nathanielbullard.com - great newsletter
- read this by @naomiaklein.bsky.social and @astra.bsky.social for the lay of the land "The startup country contingent is clearly foreseeing a future marked by shocks, scarcity and collapse. Their high-tech private domains are essentially fortressed escape pods" www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...

- speed racer (2008) is about speed racer but it's also about art, about the Wachowskis grappling with the tragedy of trying to do the thing that they love, that they're best at, under capitalism. Both John Goodman and Susan Sarandon give performances that will actually make you cry
- Highly recommend following the work of the Southern Environmental Law Center who have tracking this and other polluting data center projects in the South www.selc.org/topic/data-c...
- Poisoning the air of a Black community for a fucking chatbot.
- Speaking of early 1990s gonzo shows, I just stumbled upon a complete archive of MTV's Liquid Television, the animation show that IMO is the best such thing ever aired. This episode features Aeon Flux, pieces by Mark Beyer, Drew Friedman & Charles Burns, and the debut of Beavis & Butthead.

- This is how you do it, no playing possum here. And it should be happening every day, by every elected official.
- Bravo Senator Markey and what a disappointment that this is the first mention of the public’s rights
- Markey touts his "AI civil rights act" that he says would hold tech companies accountable when their AI products cause harm to marginalized communities. At a hearing where AI regulation has been broadly criticized, he's the first to focus on these issues. www.markey.senate.gov/news/press-r...

- So my girlfriend is an amazing stop motion animator, and she recently did a medieval cat themed bumper for Adult Swim! Sharing it here because she only has Instagram and I think everyone needs to see her animations. She's so freaking talented, y'alls. PLEASE go follow her!
- STUNNING story: 25-year-old DOGE aide was warned about his conflicts of interest at CFPB but participated in mass layoffs at the agency anyway, including the firings of the ethics lawyers who had warned him.
- Like a well-oiled machine. Congratulations, America! Strong work!
- Folk, I'mma be live on the radio at WFMU in like 15 minutes! What should I play? Will I figure it out in time? How much of it will involve beatboxing and how much will involve jazz scat? Yodels? Khöömei? 😱
- In some ways my whole life has been preparation for this: Vocal Fry episode #416, beginning w/Dada sound poetry and ending with a New Zealander throatsinging. The apotheosis of the voice continues at www.wfmu.org/playlists/sh... and you're all invited to take part.
- The banal helplessness of the tone of these articles annoys me. Just don't let these students graduate. Fail them!
