The reason why we review comedian Christopher Titus' (@TitusNation) specials @DCFilmdom is because they're not your regular HBO-type hourlong comedy shows. They're feature-length narratives complete with three-act structure, ebb and flow, and expert storytelling.
In our opinion, he is the hardest-working comedian trying not only to put a good product onstage, but to bring those watching a little closer together through the shared experience of being human in an age where being human has been forgotten through the overuse of social media.
His latest, AMERIGEDDON, tries to make sense of what we've become since the election of 2016 started ramping up. Tackling racism, willful ignorance, and how awful we're being to each other, AMERIGEDDON should be required viewing before 2020. Our review: dcfilmdom.com/2018/11/christ…
Oh, and let's not forget: it's funny as hell, too.
Thanks for the retweet, @nminow!

~ Tyranny - The Abuse of Power to Serve Selfish Ends ~

'For a few days last week it seemed we might witness a rare example of integrity, independence, and courage in Hollywood, that herd of independent minds.'
'Comedian Kevin Hart was slated to host the Oscars, but some tweets insulting to gays from several years ago surfaced, and the Salemite usual suspects began clamoring for the stake.'

This is incredibly significant and spells trouble for @realDonaldTrump, @nra and @TheNatlInterest @CFTNI. The prospect of the entire NRA being caught up in a Russian laundromat to fix an election is very real. @traciemac_Bmore 1/4
Butina was in contact with members of the Washington think tank, considered to be a Kremlin proxy in D.C. I wrote about @TheNatlInterest @cftni, #HBO, #CNN execs involvement below. 2/4 @traciemac_Bmore narativ.org/2018/11/16/kis…
Worth recalling, Butina’s testimony will give the FBI conspiracy evidence going back to 2011, which should make people like @DonaldJTrumpJr, @SherrifClarke and JD Gordon nervous as we first detailed below. 3/4 @traciemac_Bmore. narativ.org/2017/09/08/for…

Der @ORF verbreitet im Hauptabendprogramm nach einem Spielfilm ("Das Wunder von #Wörgl"), den über 600.000 Menschen sahen, in einer Erklär- und Begleitdoku, die haltlose These nach einer "Selbstausschaltung des Parlaments" im Jahr 1933.
Zur Erinnerung: Dollfuß ließ anordnen, dass am 15. März 1933 unter Androhung von Waffengewalt Nationalratsabgeordneten der Zutritt zum Parlament verwehrt wird. Das war das Ende der Ersten Republik in Österreich. Nicht eine kleine Geschäftsordnungskrise davor, die war nur Anlass.
Im Spielfilm selbst wurde auch bewusst der #Austrofaschismus übersprungen. Der Film endet mit der Verurteilung Unterguggenbergs und einer Einblendung, dass er ein Jahr danach starb. Auf einmal hängen schon Hakenkreuzfahnen in Wörgl.

Thread alert! Atherosclerosis (official journal of @society_eas) publishes a #review on #TraditionalChineseMedicine (#TCM). It's simultaneously a bit frightening and hilarious (1/16)

atherosclerosis-journal.com/article/S0021-…
First of all, TCM is BS. It may have been useful thousands of years ago when nothing was known about science but nowadays we know better. Besides, "modern TCM" was pretty much invented by Chairman Mao in the 50's: slate.com/articles/healt… (2/16)
Look at this terrifying aim of the review! "WHAT IS NECESSARY FOR TCM TO SPREAD TO WESTERN SOCIETIES". Ideological bias, much? (3/16)

45 Days Of @ElvisCostello: a twitter megathread in anticipation of the Oct 12 release date of LOOK NOW, the new LP by Elvis Costello & The Imposters

This is either a bright idea or a brilliant mistake, but this is only, this is only, this is only the beginning...
I did something similar to this 5 years ago, in anticipation of EC & @theroots' Wise Up Ghost LP, on tumblr.

(You can still find all those posts if you look, although a lot of the YouTube links etc are now dead ends. It was 40 Days Of EC then, so for 2018 I'm upping it to 45.)
Mostly I will be going chronologically from the early years right up to the present, but it feels right to start out with Costello's 2002 song, "45."

[Wątek] 1/ na szpagat @prezydentpl trzeba spojrzeć w szerszym kontekście. Prezydent zaniechał dwóch fundamentalnych czynności wprost przyznanych mu w jego ustawie o SN #SN
2/ pierwsza - prezydent powinien wydać postanowienie (art. 142 ust. 2 Konstytucji) stwierdzając przejście w stan spoczynku 10 sędziów. Tymczasem prezydent wysłał listy, w których pisze, że przeszli w stan spoczynku. List nie ma żadnego znaczenia, nie kreuje stanu prawnego.
3/ co ciekawe, listy wysłał również do tych sędziów, którzy powołali się na Konstytucję, wyrażając wolę dalszego urzędowania i nie dołączając zaświadczeń lekarskich. Co ciekawe, takiego listu nie wysłał do PSN Iwulskiego. Ten również stwierdził, że nie dołączy zaśw. lekarskiego.
