If you look at the world and say “Yes, there are enough homes for people, yes, there is enough food for people, but if we give it away for free they won’t have earned it and the economy will collapse.” Then you have chosen money (a constructed medium of exchange) over living beings who only want to continue living in peace and safety.

And I have no qualms telling you, that is the wrong choice, and you have been brainwashed by this destructive, exploitative system.

This spreads around every 4 years, but I’ve never felt it more in my soul than I have in 2020.

James Mangold is set to direct Indiana Jones 5. Imagine if Mangold & Joaquin collaborated again on this. It would be something…

First pic: River Phoenix, Harrison Ford & Steven Spielberg on the set of Indiana Jones. The Last Crusade.

Second pic: River & Harrison Ford on the set of Mosquito Coast.

River in Japan (with pops John, left, and Heart - just visible - right). The top of his hair is fabulous.

“If someone hadn’t pointed him out, I wouldn’t have noticed him. He looked like a regular guy with a frayed thrift-store shirt, sipping beer out of a plastic cup. ‘That’s him,’ my friend told me at a backyard party given last year for musicians T-Bone Burnett and Bruce Cockburn. ‘That’s River Phoenix.’ ‘Wow,’ I said, squinting my eyes to see him through the crowd of faces. ‘He looks so… normal.’ On the way to our car after the party had fizzled, the young actor careened into me while horsing around with a waifish girl. He said ‘excuse me’ and told us to drive home safely. He’s cool and polite, my friends and I agreed”

went on a dead person’s twitter and i guess they had that horoscope app installed that automatically tweets your horoscope for you at set intervals because after their final tweet there’s just pages upon pages, years worth of these horoscope tweets droning on in silence. it’s really dark in a way i can’t properly articulate, like a phone receiver off-hook tone echoing through an empty house.
