Always good to revisit the classics. I recently saw the new Dracula movie. It wasn't good. Not the worst thing I've ever seen though. If you want the most basic Dracula imaginable go see it. I will say the costumes are pretty. Otherwise pick up anything else.

Thanks for taking the bullet for us on the Dracula movie. I was tempted to see it, but now I will save my hard earned cash for future Dunc movies. If you’re looking for an innovative and captivating depiction of Dracula, I highly recommend this pen-and-ink graphic novel by Georges Bess (https://a.co/d/060BaCd5). The composition, attention to detail, and design are incredible. As a poet, you would appreciate it I’m sure as the flow of the pages are almost poetic at times.

You're very welcome. If you're really into Dracula it's worth seeing but wait for streaming. Definitely not worth a full price movie ticket and you'll be able to skip the boring parts. That George Bess book looks amazing. Thanks for the recommendation

I’ve noticed in many articles (not yhis one I know) you compare Trump to McKinley, and I think the Greenland ambitions mirror that president’s annexation of the Philippines. There are many reasons why I don’t think these two are actually equivalent, the foremost being that the eskimos already there have essentially zero political relevance to the whole situation. I don’t know what the long-term political consequences of Trump getting Greenland would be, but I do know American control of the Philippines remained contentious for the entire duration of its possession by the U.S. Can you write about this? I think the justifications given by McKinley himself are the most interesting, and despite the claims of liberals I see no reason to doubt the sincerity of his words on the matter.

Thanks for this and for being one of the most idiosyncratic voices on X.

Right about everything, our generation’s Rush Limbaugh 🥂

I really liked 28 Years Later, but I can’t bring myself to go see Bone Temple. I get a odd feeling that i won’t like it. Waiting for the podcast.

“You’ll see. You’ll all see!” *lightning cracks*

But, yeah, Bone Temple is pretty good. I just wish I could have seen it streaming because one part is just too gross.
