The [url=https://www.inventati.org/campaign/press]inclusion of Autistici/Inventati on the US Specially Designated Global Terrorist list[/url] is a kick in the guts for all of us hosting services for others, whether it's fediverse instances, blogs, mailing lists or anything else. While most of us will hopefully never be on the receiving end of such a designation, the US regime has demonstrated how easily they can ruin our lives by throwing a politically motivated terror designation our way.

You may think that you're safe. You're not doing anything illegal after all. Just providing some infrastructure, a services or a place for people to come together and communicate. Privately. In confidence. Anonymously.

That was also what Autistici/Inventati was doing.

We're all targets now. And if we don't stand up against it, we let the fascists win!

@[url=https://bne.social/@phocks]Joshua Byrd[/url] Great film! Watched it last summer at a festival.

If you haven't seen it, I also recommend the previous film by the same director, Coralie Fargeat: Revenge. Not a body horror, but a really well made and pretty action filled revenge film.

[zmg= ]Two young women in the rain, facing away towards an entrance door to a house ahead.[/zmg]
To my surprise I had to admit that one of my favourites (among many) at this years Ramaskrik festival was a film starring Hugh Grant!

In [b]Heretic[/b] he does an excellent interpretation of the older grandfather-like figure with a keen interest in the more esoteric sides of religion. When the two other main characters – two young members of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints (Sophie Thatcher and Chloe East) out to spread the gospel of their faith – knocks on his door, he is well prepared.

This is solid character drama from all the three main actors, with a surprising amount of deep theological discussion that drives the plot. Perhaps not what you would think of as entertaining, but that's exactly what it is. The twists as the story unfolds and the dynamic between the characters keep it interesting and constantly surprising throughout the duration of the film.

Absolutely a film well worth watching!

[zmg= ]A lonely woman in crude winter clothes is standing on a frozen hill surrounded by primitive wooden crosses in front of a fjord and a mountain in the back.[/zmg]

[b]The Damned[/b] is a slow and atmospheric horror film set in a small 19th century phishing outpost on the coast of Iceland. Isolated and low on supplies by a harsh winter, the widow of the outposts founder has to manage the starving crew as best as she can. When a large ship sinks right outside their shore, there's some hard decisions to make.

This is beautiful in all aspects. The story is told with warmth and life, in stark contrast to the cold and harsh environment surrounding the crew. The cinematography is stunning, and captures both the intimacy of the small phishing crew, and the wide, cold isolation of the outpost as a whole.

The story is somewhat predictable, but interesting and well told. The dynamic between the various crew members is allowed to evolve in a pace that feels natural without loosing intensity.

The [i]one[/i] thing that would improve the film, in my opinion, was if it was done with Icelandic speech instead of Irish. That's a minor gripe, however. Other than that, stellar performances by all actors, and a film well worth watching!

[zmg= ]The blood smeared faces of two girls, one expressing fear, the other joy.[/zmg]
The french film [b]MadS[/b] is an intense, chaotic and surreal ride through a night of drugs, partying and a virus outbreak that turns people into flesh-eating monsters. It's shot entirely in one take, where the camera seamlessly follow tight on the backs of the various main characters of the film. The fast pace, a lot of the time running, gives it an intensity that hardly let you catch a breath from the very start to the end credits roll. It's almost like we're inside the movie, rather than just watching it.

The intensity, and at least some of the party scenes reminds me a lot of Gaspar Noé's [b]Climax[/b] (2018), another really intense, psychedelic horror film.

[b]MadS[/b] definitely stands firm on it's own, though, pushing the boundaries of how film can be experienced. Highly recommended – it's not often films like this come about.

Coupled with proper access controls and who you allow to send you comments that eliminates a lot of the problems I see people using Mastodon complain about. But yeah I agree, it should have been the default model for federation.

Excuse me if this does not appeal to me.

Has it even occurred to you that perhaps — just perhaps — we are not failing at being like Silicon Valley but that we do not want to be like Silicon Valley?

Have you ever wondered if maybe we can do better than to adopt an excessively greedy system of venture capital and exits that funds spyware and treats people as capital to be bought and sold?[/quote]
