Rather fitting - American Pachuco: The Legend Of Luis Valdez opens the New York doc fest tonight - February 3 - The Day The Music Died. I know that Ritchie’s family was always grateful to Luis for bringing him his proper recognition.




Last night, rewatching “Interstellar” made me want to rewatch “Contact” (1997) again. So tonight, I’m watching this beloved film. We’re a generation deeply influenced by Carl Sagan and the SETI program. I’ve returned to this movie many times over the years. A father and daughter, a journey into the unknown, wormholes, relativity, Lynda Obst, Kip Thorne. “Interstellar” and this film feel like twins.


spent last weekend in SF and felt my social abilities plummet in real time i hadn't realized this before—it's not just that SF selects for awkward people, it's that an environment of awkward people actually propagates intense awkwardness case in point, i took a date (who is not in tech) to a tech party and it was an absolute nightmare. i was so stunned at one point that i completely failed to save a conversation and we basically had to retreat into a corner, confirm that what we had just experienced was surreal (someone pointing out a physical feature in a really strange way), and then promptly exit the insane thing is that the person we were talking to is actually a great friend and an outstanding founder who i hadn't seen since january. the SF mind virus got to her i just don't know how people do it. how do you nourish your soul in that environment?! it seems that for many, they simply turn it off and go spiritually heads-down
