“When you’re working intensively on a project and something really anomalous occurs it’s tempting to say this project feels cursed.” I appear in the trailer for @shudder’s Cursed Films premiering 3/13 @sxsw where I’m doing q-and-a with director Jay Cheel. Link in bio.
I appear in the trailer for the upcoming @shudder docu-series CURSED FILMS. I'm at @sxsw film festival in Austin, TX, for the premiere on 3/13 where I'll be doing a q-and-a with director Jay Cheel. Link in bio!
Happy birthday to one of my true heroes, French mind theorist Emile Coué (1857-1926), seen here in a 1923 Ripley’s-style cartoon. Article linked in bio. #DayByDay
#Bernie must be clearer says @charlesmblow @nytimes. I'd describe democratic socialism as public availability of vital resources, from education to healthcare, similar to how we now treat water and cops. Not "free" but managed and mutually paid for so that all have them.
