I talk about fear and fairytales on the big screen. I asked the other day “What makes people monsters?” I think fairytales can help us answer that question.
Also, Amy Winehouse & the War on Drugs; bikes made of bamboo; and how quality of life in America, while good in many ways, could always be better.
I have two posts (here and here) on the conviction of Raquel Nelson whose child was killed by a drunk driver in Marietta, Georgia. Because Nelson was considered a jaywalker, she was tried and found guilty of homicide.
I also argue for more complex super villains in film, and more in-depth examinations of crime and its many causes.
I discuss the News Corp scandal and can’t come up with anything quite like it in the U.S.
Also, a no-brainer, but ending the War on Drugs is one way we could help fix the federal budget.
