Unboot the reboot

movie that came and went a few months ago? Thewas rebooted… this year… as developed by Jordan Peele??? That seems like it happened hundreds of years ago… or did it? Cue theThere’s so much nostalgia fodder, it’s no longer special or particularly novel. It’s just disorienting. It’s making the past and present bleed into each other. Granted, innovation is an extremely tall order in art, especially that which has been designed for the masses. To create is to be inspired.

I know I’m being fast and loose with taxonomy, grouping reboots , remakes, and sequels together, but I think they’re all part of a nostalgia craze that is chewing through pop culture. Nostalgia is not bad in itself—we’re talking entertainment here so if it feels good, it’s usually all right—but resting on it is. Gotta bring something else along with it besides entitlement. There’s deriving inspiration and then there’s sleeping through the formulation of what’s being put out there.

Trump 'almost an outcast' among U.S. allies says biographer after NATO video goes viral: 'He is a bully and…a braggart'Trump canceled a planned press conference after world leaders were filmed joking together at the NATO summit, apparently about the president, although his name was not mentioned. TRUMP is an outcast in reputable circles. He hangs out and parties with guys like Epstein, Putin, Kim, MbS, making him only welcome among those types. So he's your typical American? Got it 👍. The apology tour is over. Either America has the biggest balls in the room or we don't. Most powerful person on Earth is the US President. I expect that person to be a 'bully'.
