RIP Raoul Vaneigem. The Revolution of Everyday Life is one of the most important books I've ever read and I haven't stopped thinking about certain parts since I was a teenager. Rest easy gramps, we'll take it from here.
I really like this picture of Edward Yang wearing a San Francisco 49ers hat on the set of A Brighter Summer Day
