New report shows that compared to other states, Arkansas woefully underfunds its public schools, which serve 95% of our students, while we're wasting more than $300M a year on voucher subsidies that benefit fewer than 50,000 families. #MisplacedPriorities

Obviously the broader culture is not in a good place but it's heartening that television keeps returning to one of the eternal storytelling themes: Padma Lakshmi imperiously striding into the room and demanding that you make her a delicious treat.
Cinema scene is so good. God all that red! #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
Damn, who is the artist who supplied the art in the house. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
aww, I loved this Roger Corman interview, god what a legend. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
legitimately had no idea whose house this was, and I've seen this movie before. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
L'Aventura is perfection!!!! #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
This lady is playing it pretty cool for walking in on a grocery store raw meat feast after seeing a guy eat a live rat. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
Oh no. The supermarket. #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam
GIRL DON'T GET IN THAT CAR HOLY SHIT. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
Please somebody put together a Messiah of Evil clothing collection, I want every outfit. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
I don't understand the missed boob opportunities here. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
This house is so disorienting, I love it. Clothes & hair are fantastic. Insane red curtains that look like curtains of blood, good stuff. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
Elisha Cook Jr. in MESSIAH OF EVIL
As always, Elisha Cook Jr. is undeniable in his magnetic kookiness. #TheLastDriveIn #MutantFam
I wonder what David Lynch thought of this movie. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
ELISHA COOK JR. so good in this. It's hard to play a drunk well and he always nails it. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
"her fingers moved like a pale spider all over my face" this is very European, also love a movie about artists that feature real art. #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
Love the bisexual lighting. #thelastdrivein #mutantfam
Know what movie this flick would pair well with? Carnival of Souls. They both have the same vibe to me.

Messiah of Evil is such a fever dream. I hate that this is the last season, but what a cool film to end with. It's not perfect, but it's certainly got a lot going on. #thelastdrivein #mutantfam
We love you Ernie #MutantFam #TheLastDriveIn
The US and Israel are bombing schools, hospitals (nine hospitals) and other civilian facilities in Iran. They have massacred over 700 civilians, including nearly 200 children. Absolute genocidal monsters.
Killing people should not be something we do quicker than the speed of thought
Gossamer just when we believe our bodies have adjusted to absence comes a new season of smoke and wildness take me now in this unexpected heat take me until I cannot help but bleat your name in hunger a horizon of geese naming the sky
new poem in @oneart.bsky.social --
the internet is poison
Using a dance school, and a coven of witches, set in post WWII Germany, Luca Guadagnino's Suspiria as metaphor is a meditation on how democracies falter, and how people with power in them falter and fail. One of the 21st century's most dense, interesting horror films

Voting in Arkansas sometimes feels like voting directly into my toilet for all the good it does, but I do like to show up for local politics & am glad I had a few good choices.
