kinda sad timothée chalamet's bob dylan movie is coming out in december bc then this means they could vie for an oscar nom for him (the whole movie is oscar bait let's be honest lol) and will be focusing their campaign on this role instead of dune 2, which i think is so deserving and would be worth the effort :(

Il cinema del mio paese la deve smettere di fare le masterclass solo dei film americani e cominciare a ospitare cast e registi dei film italiani così da evitarmi 5 ore a Milano ogni sera che poi per tornare a casa mi ci vuole un miracolo

I keep seeing this floating around and started adding tags, but it’s worth a bit more. I try to keep tumblr lighthearted, because it’s my favorite little refuge, but this is a heavier, so feel free to skip - genuinely. I know we all need to do that to survive at times.

When I was growing up there didn’t used to be a ‘smoke season,’ on the US West Coast, but this is life now.

Three years ago, this exact issue displaced us for two months. I took a screenshot of Google maps and circled four small fires I’d heard were burning around us, then packed a weekend bag, thinking we were overreacting, but I was worried about escape routes with an infant, so left anyway out of an abundance of caution. Those small fires burned out, but overnight, Riverside traveled 20 miles and a day later, I got this picture below from our neighbor, of their barn a hundred yards from our house. They took it as they drove away. The color of the sky we were used to - the whole valley had looked like that for days - but the grey smoke above the trees stopped me dead.

In the lighter moments, we joked that the Gates of Oblivion were opening around us, but if we were honest, it actually felt that way. Images like these below, of places I know (at midday, not dusk), were everywhere, and the stories that came out of our sibling fire (Lionshead), to the south, were horrific. There are no words for living under this sky for days and weeks, waiting to hear if entire towns are gone.

There are no words to describe walking through your own smoke-filled home after not knowing if it was standing for two weeks, in eerie silence with only a dying robotic voice repeating Danger: Carbon Monoxide overhead while you step over abandoned pieces of your life to take only the essentials. Or for walking back outside to air that’s no better and an ash-covered ground littered with perfectly preserved leaves, turned black and hard from floating through flames. Or leaving again, and not returning for a month.

What Maui is facing right now is so much worse than what we went through. Unimaginably worse. My heart is with them as they work to find loved ones and restabilize.

I’m exhausted of seeing these things normalized. I’m exhausted of so little being done. Those at the top had better be listening.

Smash Mouth - All Star 1999

"All Star" is a song by the American rockband Smash Mouth, released as the first single from their second studio album, Astro Lounge (1999). It was one of the last tracks to be written for Astro Lounge, after the band's record label Interscope requested more songs that could be released as singles. In writing it, guitarist Greg Camp drew musical influence from contemporary music by artists like Sugar Ray and Third Eye Blind, and sought out to create an "anthem" for outcasts. In contrast to the more ska punk style of Smash Mouth's debut album Fush Yu Mang (1997), the song features a more radio-friendly style.

It received generally positive reviews from music critics, who praised its musical progression from Fush Yu Mang as well as its catchy tone. It was nominated for the Best Pop Performance by a Duo or Group with Vocals at the 42nd Annual Grammy Awards. Subsequent reviews from critics have regarded "All Star" favourably, with some ranking it as one of the best songs of 1999. The song charted around the world, ranking in the top 10 of the charts in Australia, Canada, and on the US Billboard Hot 100, while topping the Billboard Adult Top 40 and Mainstream Top 40 charts.

The song's accompanying music video features characters from the 1999 superhero film Mystery Men, which itself prominently featured "All Star". The song became ubiquitous in popular culture following multiple appearances in films, most notably in DreamWorks Animation's 2001 film Shrek. It received renewed popularity in the 2010s as an internet meme and has ranked as one of the most-streamed rock songs from 2017 to 2021 in the US. In June 2019, the music video was remastered in high definition and received subtitles in commemoration of its 20th anniversary. By that point, it had received over 219 million views on Youtube. In 2020, The New York Times listed the song as #1 in their top ten climate change songs.

"All Star" received a total of 90,9% yes votes!
