From the Desk of…
Sorry, folks. I’m way too busy for a proper round-up, and there’s a lot of developing news items about the Ohio Department of Education and Kevin McCarthy to gloss over. Oh, and the Ohio maps. I’ll do a two-week review next week, and I’ll instead use this space to implore anyone who might be reading this to update your voter registration, since Ohio’s deadline for doing so is Tuesday. Ohio voters can use this link to check their registrations, and if you’ve moved or if you’ve changed your name or whatever the circumstances, you can use this link to update your registration. Early voting will start next week on the 11th, which means someone ought to create some sort of Meowlot…

Oh my God, and Feinstein and Bowman and there might be too much for a single review next week. So much is happening all the time now.
At the Movies
I have managed to work some movies into my very crammed schedule though.
Hot Fuzz (2007), dir. Edgar Wright ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ❤️
this is one of God's Perfect Movies
Nosferatu (1922), dir. F. W. Murnau ⭐⭐⭐⭐ ❤️
if the cowards at the Gateway would let me do a crumb of programming we could've watched a GOOD Murnau like Sunrise or Der letzte Mann or Faust instead of this overplayed antisemitic drivel. five stars
House (1977), dir. Nobuhiko Obayashi ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ❤️
i got kicked out of the theater by the fascist ushers for standing and saluting every time Kung Fu, one of the greatest characters in cinema, was on the screen
[whispering to other people in the theater while watching House when House first appears on the screen] That's House
finally got to see the whole movie without being thrown out for doing bits. little do they realize the entire film is bits. it's the best film directly inspired by Jaws. the part where
[Senator Meow was found unresponsive in the lobby with this review pre-drafted. Doctors at a nearby medical research institute theorize that seeing House that often overstimulated his bit systems and activated a parasympathetic reaction to protect his mind. It remains to be seen if he will recover from this near-death state. Senator Meow, ???? - 2023, probably.]
Those House reviews were three screenings across three days. Pretty good!
