If you don’t let go of your prejudices and past grudges, your heart won’t blossom. 2013 is coming, let’s make a change. We only have one planet so let’s show each other some kindness.

It’s crazy that this 1964 film had more consciousness of Operation Paperclip than we do now when it is undeniable the CIA did that.

Notice how Charlie Kirk is awfully quiet about Mitch McConnell and Lindsey Graham? Curious.

Please share this, as he could be anywhere between Northern California and Ohio so we are trying to get more reach out of our OR/CA circles.

Actually, Weed is a commercial truck hub. He could be anywhere in the country. Please share and keep an eye out.

Oh wow so me saying "no government documentation should ever include a gender marker for any reason" has been right all along. For exactly the reason I stated when people were giving me shit for not supporting x markers on documents.

Oh, I see you didn't enjoy "Bring Her Back"! I see you called it lunatic torture porn. Great. Now, out of curiosity, what do you think all the (your words) disturbing, sickening, suffocating, but ultimately "meaningless" child abuse in this film might be trying to say about the exploitation of children by adults and systems of power? Do we think there's a reason why this film becomes increasingly difficult to watch as children suffer from increasingly demented abuse and mutilation? Do we think the film might be trying to make a point about the vulnerability and oppression of children as a class, especially within the foster care system, by forcing its audience into the position of total helplessness and nihilism that children are forced to occupy? Do we think the "fetishistic/perverse blindness" of the young main character might serve to emphasize the theme of vulnerability? Do we think that the themes of grief might actually serve to emphasize the themes of children's oppression and exploitation, considering that a young girl's corpse is violated and mutilated in the hopes that it will eventually be "better" for her? Do we think maybe you've identified this as grief horror when it is actually perhaps not? Do we think that filmmakers who make horror movies might want to employ horrifying tactics to examine horrifying subjects? Do we think, perhaps, that the reason this "not even scary" horror movie made you flee the theatre in repulsion is because it is, in fact, doing what it was meant to do, and, in fact, you just don't actually like horror movies? Do we think that, just maybe, the reason this "purposeless" movie is making you all feel SO bad is that it actually did have a purpose, which it accomplished, but which you are too blinded by your sense of puritanical morality to recognize? Let's go through these questions together. We can sit back to back in two separate chairs -- you don't have to look at me.
