Sarah Polley: The Men You Meet Making Movies
I loved acting. But I didn’t realize what it was to be taken seriously until I began directing.I am not going to deal with Harvey Weinstein.
Misogyny is not acceptable.
"Just say no" trivializes real problems.
Guessing by the leadership does not help.

The ‘Halt and Catch Fire’ Showrunners on ‘Redefining the Story of Losers’
“It’s millions of people in obscurity who did most of the heavy lifting, only to have somebody step in and get the credit,” says series co-creator Christopher C. Rogers.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hTWKbfoikeg&list=RDEMDz952MrmDXLULMlo7SEXUw
It's a good reason to misuse a shotgun.
Technological development is not interesting to those not involved in the projects.
The variety and detail of human relations is always the core of story.
"Halt and catch fire" Would be interesting as a cautionary tale. It is not one.

Travel
Surf and Safari: Packages Offer Two Hotels, Two Experiences
Properties are giving guests different destinations in one trip — including jungle and beach in Belize, city and country in New York.There is never enough time.
I would not design such trips.
My goal would be synergy.

Opinion
Why Are Millennials Wary of Freedom?
Because they’ve been taught to fear life."Who will bell the cat?"
To fix the problems of fear a further large fraction of the active electorate must be convinced to act against their short term interest.
Pain is building in that part of the population but it is not yet enough to force a change in behavior.
The change must be a desirable one.
Such changes became ragged at the end of the
Second World War.

Becoming a Steelworker Liberated Her. Then Her Job Moved to Mexico.
Workers like Shannon Mulcahy took pride in their jobs at the Rexnord factory in Indianapolis. The bearings they made were top-notch. In the end, it didn’t matter.I have no fix for manufacturing labor.
Automation will aid production.
Quality control in purchasing can force quality control in manufacturing as it has in the past.
Communities will change or die.
Community death is ugly.

The Ashes in Napa
The fire took our family’s house. And reminded us that everything is temporary.The land remains.
The knowledge remains.

Stupid Trump Tricks
If this were a better presidency, we wouldn’t mention these things.I wish Trump was funny.
Sunday Review
The Survivor’s Guilt of a New American Citizen
I no longer live in the shadows, but the fate of my fellow Dreamers is uncertain.Yes, Trump is an enemy of the constitution and the republic.

Camping With John Waters and His Band of ‘Filthy Freaks’
The “Pope of Trash” hosts a sleep-away camp in Litchfield County, Conn. Yes, there were marshmallows, polyester and nudity.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/John_Waters
It is not required that John Waters be liked.
He is part of this world and does not seem to indulge in coercion.
Opinion
In Costa Rica, Loss in the Clouds
Among the Quakers in Monteverde’s cloud forest, I have found peace, and a willingness to endure.I have not found that need.
I am, perhaps a slave of things.
I want tools and books.
I have no objection to making or to killing at need.
I am not a Quaker or a patron of war.

Deaths of Dozens of Canada Geese Linked to Moldy Bread or Grain
Malone, N.Y., is a favorite bird-watching destination, but this year it was also the site of dozens of deaths attributed to a fungal infection.These are migrating birds.
There is not much local grain to the north of Malone.
I speculate that it is waste along the Canadian railways lost on its way east.
