Agreed that this is a great monologue & movie, but what I find striking is that over the past few years I've become convinced that boredom is, in fact, good, in that it leads directly to creative output. I get most of my best thinking done when I'm forced to be bored, by not being able to be online.

This Film often has the piss taken out of it for being a rather sedentary piece about 2 people just talking a lot — BUT — it has one of the most brilliantly prescient monologues in the history of Movies imho. MY DINNER WITH ANDRE (1981) Have a listen.

always hearing terrible news about that platner guy. at this point i wouldn't be surprised if it came out that he had an actual nazi tattoo on his chest. i bet everyone would immediately cease supporting him to avoid embarrassing themselves, if that happened

He is doing this all out in the open, because he is being allowed to. That is the most shocking thing. It's more humiliation for the United States of America. And on top of that he is destroying a game that most Americans do not care for or actively dislike.

Trump on Balogun: "That wasn't even an infraction...this referee, who is a little bit suspect if you check his past. He made a call nobody could believe...he's our best player, or one of our best players. And he gave him a red card. I didn't know what that meant...yes, I asked for a review by FIFA."

@gooseworx.bsky.social Thank you for this beautiful show. Because of you, I reached out to an old trans friend of mine that I... I was a disrespectful bigot. I've regretted how I acted for years but never said anything. I don't expect her to forgive me or even respond. I just want to say I'm sorry.
