Since you like Psycho, I’d recommend Peeping Tom by Michael Powell or several movies by Mario Bava from the era like The Girl Who Knew Too Much and Blood and Black Lace. Eyes Without a Face is also Great. Also Rosemary’s Baby and Repulsion by Polanski. For Japanese Films you should check out Yojimbo, Sword of Doom, and 2 by Seijun Suzuki ; Branded to Kill and Tokyo Drifter. Also check out Dr. Strangelove by Kubrick and if you like New Hollywood westerns , etc Bonnie and Clyde and The Wild Bunch are requisites. French New Wave stuff is important so maybe Breathless and Band of Outsiders and of course Melville’s “Le Samourai.” Spaghetti Westerns were very influential and Leone’s Man With No Name Trilogy ( A Fistful of Dollars, For a few Dollars More, The Good the Band and the Ugly ) and Once Upon A time in The West are a good starting point. There are so many but those are a few recommendations that might send you down further rabbit holes.

As you should. The admins and moderators of this instance share in that sentiment. It would be a contradiction of this organization’s mission statements and policies aimed at protecting artists if that’s the case.

Their resources may be limited but that’s good they offer accommodation. I assume you’re referring to the residency. This is just an open call for artists to submit art.

They’re revolting because it already has and they haven’t been given a voice https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/9/8/six-killed-in-nepal-amid-gen-z-protests-after-social-media-ban-all-to-know

Not at all. They’re demanding anti-corruption, jobs, healthcare, etc . Another article with some background

Thanks. Solarpunk is deeply connected to Praxis as evidenced throughout this instance and readings that have been shared already. I’m trying to understand what specifically in this article could be useful for this community. As the first commenter pointed out, it’s a bit unclear from the piece itself

What part of this you think applies to Solarpunk and this community?

Thanks for catching that. It’s valid criticism and the article should attribute more sources. There are other articles about this program that are unfortunately behind a paywall and some just mention “pilot programs” but don’t specify much further. There is this company in The Netherlands which seems likely to be one of them. You’ll need to translate the site to your preferred language.

Agreed but I don’t think that’s what the article is trying to say.

Thanks. That’s effectively what the article says. It’s confirming what locals have long known / suspected. Thanks for your perspective.

Friendly Mod remider to keep our community welcoming to all and please adhere to the guidelines on our main page and engage in discussions without using using sexist terminology.

no bigotry, including racism, sexism, ableism, transphobia, homophobia or xenophobia;

One thing I can agree, the censorship and repression has nothing to do with China. The article erroneously uses the term “Semitic” btw and many of the students I was referring to are Jewish. This says nothing new. Just opinions, which are not facts. It’s no conspiracty theory that Meta’s board has many former Israeli intelligence agents on it since you’ve mentioned them. Perhaps you should do a bit more research. And so on.

It’s behind a paywall so I can’t read it. I never said “the Jews” were taking it away. I mentioned one group that is a known lobbiest group with examples. I love Jewish people and the ADL and does not speak for all of them in any way. This is the “weaponization” I’m referring to . You are free to disagree but it’s just lazy logic to call it a “conspiracy theory” just because you do.

He and others in the ADL weaponized accusations of antisemitism to shut down pro Palestine speech as much as they possibly could. I live a town away from Harvard University and he was seen meeting with Harvard administration often and preceding every act of repression against student activists including immediately before they shut down their encampment and prevented student activists from graduating instead of listening to them.

When a lobbiest says they want a platform shut down and then it eventually gets shut down it’s hard for me to dismiss that as mere coincidence. Given their influence on platforms like Meta, who wants to avoid an FTC investigation, I’m just not surprised. Any corporate platform’s primary goal is profit.

It’s no secret that Jonathan Greenblatt of the ADL was recorded and heard by many saying “We don’t have a left / right problem. We have a young / old problem. We have a TikTok problem” It’s pretty clear that TikTok finally caved in to the ADL’s demands, just like other centralized social media companies.

The article could definitely use an editor

He’s one of many celebs known for having close ties to Diddy so those skeletons will be coming out of the closet soon enough.

I’m sorry for misreading your comment. Seeing un-constructive comments elsewhere probably prejudiced me. These are definitely upsetting statistics and those feelings are valid. Good news is they’re only inevitable if we allow them to be so hopefully we can influence others to take action as individuals for collective change and liberation.
