this is deeply insulting to the intelligence of jewish people as though we can’t see the very real harms that israel has caused but are instead merely siding with the underdog for being the underdog because of wishy washy liberal jewish values
Local Observer 🇮🇶🇵🇸🍉@observer46664.bsky.social · 2h agoIt's like they fell face first into the point, and then they just kept on running.
Can’t wait to see this. Some of my favorite stuff to read about with local music is the colonial era Black fiddle music that was everywhere from the Tidewater up into the backcountry beyond the fall line. Really curious what they cover in this! ROCK & REEL A FILM ABOUT MONTICELLO'S BLACK FIDDLERS

Sherrod Brown there like a guy from a 1980’s sitcom who gets sentenced by a judge to go through highschool again
Juliana Stratton@julianastratton.bsky.social · 3h agoFirst Freshmen Senator selfie! Couldn’t ask for a better team.
Monster face is more Harryhausen derivative then remembered. But really outside of the Three Stooges conjoined twin cyclops, not a ton of cyclops design variation. Still this guy is a great giant monster suit
@teakagee.bsky.social · 23h agoThere also is a 60s Indian Tarzan where Tarzan releases a genie from a magic lamp and fights a giant cyclops that is a great 60s monster cyclops. I don’t see subtitled version on yt , but not sure if I watched it subtitled or just high enough that I envisioned subtitles. youtu.be/5nuNR2FIi1g?...
[RIP Donnie Dunagan, 92, who portrayed the son of the son of Frankenstein in SON OF FRANKENSTEIN (1939) and Bambi in BAMBI (1942) before enlisting in the marines and serving 3 tours in Vietnam.]
Reminder that Penguin paperback imagines the triffids as these fun lil’ pineapplular, testicular cutie-creeps

Here’s the protest scene I was looking for. It’s even more hilarious.
Justin McElroy@thoughtographic.bsky.social · 22h agoAlso did you know Steve Ditko was an Ayn Randian Libertarian and used Spider-Man to express his ideology? Peter Parker really hated protestors
I guess we'll just have to wait and see what sort of person Victor Buono is playing in this Man From U.N.C.L.E. episode.

If you, too, have wondered how Boscov’s continue to exist - and indeed, thrive - this article has some potential answers. (I still suspect some kind of deal with an anthracite deity of some kind ) 🎁 link: share.inquirer.com/FiGpzK
How Boscov’s survives in the shadows of so many dead malls
Of the Reading-based retailer’s eight Philly-area locations, five exist at malls that are shuttered, repurposed, or in the process of being transformed.

Worth noting again that the only reason DAC ended up running and winning is because Espaillat couldn't do the bare minimum of defending his own constituent (Mahmoud Khalil) who was kidnapped by ICE. A lot of establishmentarian politicians lose because they're unbelievably, and maliciously, lazy.
I was so distracted by songwriter James T Quirk that I almost missed his partner John C Rundback. Quirk and Rundback were on Gotham-Atrucks which was a Black owned music publishing company at turn of century.
I suspect my fellow GenX music nerds will be as delighted as I am by this 1983 Michael Stipe cover of Lou Reed's "Pale Blue Eyes," w/Matthew Sweet on guitar. It was recorded on a Walkman and then filmed in Super-8 in Athens, GA by photographer Laura Levine for her unreleased film "Just Like a Movie"

Keep thinking about that post where someone said they’d trained their dog to get excited at “do you want a walk?” And “do you want a treat” but realised the dog got excited at the word “want” and how they’ve therefore absolutely fucked his karma and condemned him to Samsara again
Oh my god. That is EXACTLY what happened. Someone suggested a Heritage Foundation and Fox contributor and he mixed them up. 😂😂😂
Libby on the Label@drainbead.bsky.social · 2d agoWould be hilarious if someone suggested "How about Dana White?" and Trump just looked at the first hit on Google and said "Sounds like a plan!" Meanwhile the person who made the suggestion meant this woman.

In Baltimore where Rahm and Run Ro are pronounced the same, this is going to create so much confusion
The Washington Post@washingtonpost.com · 4d agoProgressive Democrats aligned with Rep. Ro Khanna (D-California) are teaming up to launch a committee named “Run Ro” to urge him to run for president in the 2028 election.
the most elegant solution is to just put elon musk in that thai cave and leave him there
I think this thread misses the importance of gas prices going up. There has long been a connection between ass and gas in the American public imagination.
Jeet Heer@jeetheer.bsky.social · 3d ago1. So I have some thoughts on Trump's ass obsession, Abraham Lincoln, Sir Mix-a-Lot, Sigmund Freud, Norman O. Brown, disinhibition, cognitive decline, sublimation, Freudo-Marxism, Norman Podhoretz, Christopher Hitchens and a few other things.
It’s time for them to beat and deport people the *right way*
House Judiciary Dems@democrats-judiciary.house.gov · 4d agoIt’s time for ICE to take the masks off, turn the body cameras on, and start answering to the American people who pay for their bloated budget.
Meanwhile in reality, El-Sayed won the Jewish vote because most Jews are not trembling-knee losers.
With all this talk about Dr. Abdul El-Sayed‘s wife, Dr. Sarah Jukaku, not enough attention is being given to how she, according to her husband, can deadlift 1.5x her body weight. Hello!
People always do this, too - when a musician is revealed to be a sex offender, it suddenly becomes a topic of discussion that they were a *bad* musician, as if for all the world, *good* musicians allowed a bit of leeway, as a reward.
So while facebook has otherwise become completely useless, it‘s reels which were once the worst thing on there…have suddenly become things I actually want to see. This appears to be a Filipino street musician playing Sway/quien sera on a leaf. Fuck a Michael Buble
Prof Davis in the recording identifies "Sir Henry" as being the same as "Young Hunting". This is a really good one by Madison co NC singer Sheila Kay Adams.

Daniel Bachman@danielbachman.bsky.social · 4d agoDoing a singer bios today with the Witt family of Salem VA. We're not sure this is a photo of the Witts, but since both Mr. and Mrs. Witt recorded, it seems likely it is. JS Witt recorded some of the better fiddle tunes for the society. I especially like "Sir Henry" Ive not heard that melody before.
