🚅 #360: "Suicide Club" (2001) 

@Alexis if you haven’t seen it yet, next up should be Noriko’s Dinner Table, which is set in the same universe as Suicide Club.

It’s amazing.

Doctor X (1932).

I’ll watch anything shot in two-strip technicolor. The palette—peach and green—makes a fever dream of everything.

We begin with a police tour of a gallery of scientist suspects, any of which might be a lunatic serial killer. But which one? (They’re all quite mad).

The sprawling sets are absolutely glorious—perfect for stalking stranglers and shadow play.

And comedy; because, at heart, this is a goofy movie, full of pranks and fools.

❤️❤️❤️💔

In Orlando, my best friend and I snuck into a Shul celebration. It’s the first time I’ve been to a Jewish anything since I got kicked out of temple as a kid. Returning as a 6’ trans woman was kind of fun. Especially the part where the rabbi sorted the crowd by gender, and all of a sudden my friend and I were on opposite sides of the room. Something about the experience made me recognize that had I not been fighting gender issues my whole life, I might have actually folded in with this stuff.

But the only thing I have to share is that I’m bad at coming up with things to share.

Mitchell Baker from Mozilla tells the German news agency that we shouldn't "leave AI development to the tech-giants", that somehow "the training data should be controlled by users".

And that does on a surface level sound nice. User control and criticizing tech giants. Great. But it accepts the tech-giants' narrative: That "AI" is inevitable and that all data *has to* be dumped into these systems, that unfairness is a tech issue to solve with more data. That is not true.

We can also decide not to build these huge and wasteful statistical systems.

Criterion Channel has at least four different horror film slates running for October this year.

Between 90’s Horror, Hopping Hong Kong Vampires, Art-House Horror, and Pre-Code Horror, I’m paralyzed with indecision as to what to watch.

Frankenhooker (1990) is on the Criterion Slate of 90’s horror films this year.

I don’t think I can watch it. And not just because it’s awful Henlotter trash (meant lovingly).

At the end of the film, the protoganist wakes to find himself transformed into a woman (in the most 😝 way possible).

Twelve year-old me was deeply disturbed. Not at the transformation, but at the protagonist’s horrified reaction to the change—how could anyone be upset by something so wonderful?

Found this outfit in the clearance section of Tristan’s in Montreal. The clerks looked at me like I was crazy when I picked it out. ☺️

Last night was Sylvan Esso at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley. I actually bought the tickets for the opener, Indigo de Souza, but she had to cancel for a family emergency. Still a good show! Programming the lights must have been a lot of fun!!

Basic models of flocking behavior are controlled by three simple rules: 1) separation: avoid crowding neighbours (short range repulsion); 2) alignment: steer towards average heading of neighbors; 3) cohesion: steer towards average position of neighbors (long range attraction). With these three simple rules, the flock moves in an extremely realistic way.
