Seven Samurai

Mastodon has a theme:

#The7FilmsToKnowMe

To which I contributed (https://mastodon.social/@OscarBeau):

The Princess Bride

Charade

The Big Lebowski

Groundhog Day

Singin’ in the Rain

Blowup

The Big Chill

I chose films which make me feel good to know they exist. I hug myself with glee when I think of them. Other lists of course are possible – favourite musicals, best 21st century, best drama, best romcom, or just numbers 8-14, 15-21 etc – and maybe I’ll do some of those as the mood takes me.

What’s past

My book concerning fire in the Australian environment, extinction of the megafauna, and Indigenous interaction with the environment in general (and in total opposition to the works of Flannery, Pascoe and Gammage, among others), is available online. https://www.routledge.com/The-Pure-State-of-Nature-Sacred-cows-destructive-myths-and-the-environment/Horton/p/book/9781865081076

All my individual publications in this field (and others) are available free online at https://www.researchgate.net/profile/David_Horton9

Also many of my older essays are still available here: https://www.abc.net.au/news/david-horton/28320

Suck it up Mike Godwin

You know who else was anti-woke, pro-cancelling, hated and killed LGBTQ people, destroyed unions, hated and killed anyone of different cultures and religions, removed opposition political parties, hated and destroyed the Arts, packed the judiciary, worshipped the military, used a lot of flags?

Yeah, you do.
