Shallow hopefulness isn’t my bag. It seems like it but, rest assured, it’s a hard-earned hopefulness. A grasping pleading hopefulness. Good things are exceedingly difficult to find and harder to hold onto but they’re worth it. I’m not dumb, I’m just hoping like hell.

So much hand-wringing about potential cult film & shows being “lost” by streamers nuking them. How do you think films BECAME cult before the internet? Pirates & enthusiasts putting in the work to circulate the reels & tapes. Maybe having to work for it again will reinvigorate us.

Fascinating to hear the “litter box in the elementary because a kid identifies as a cat” urban legend/hoax got to Britain as well. Kids tell a baldly impossible story to wind up their folks & they believe it cuz everyone needs to be outraged. Miss the days of bubble gum spiders.
