a documentary directed by jennefer vendetti in 2007, Centered around autistic teenager âbilly,â who lives in Maine with his sweet mother. No film captures the beauty and tragedy of being a weird Kid as well as this - and the filmmaking is perfect. I have no idea why no one has seen it because anyone would love it. Youâll laugh and cry Guarantee. Watch it tn

I'm not really a documentary person but this one is like a visual collage. It's made up from actual historic footage and reshoots with an incredible score.
It's the history of teenagers in the US, England, and Germany but it's also about the way young people are shaped by war and industrialization.
It's so compelling it goes by super fast, can't recommend enough.

I really enjoyed this doc - half for the visual inspo and half for the stories told. The legend Bud Force co-directed/produced, and directed photography here and you can see it. There are sweeping landscapes filled with galloping horses, intimate stories of families living 3 hours from the nearest grocery stores to work on the ranch, animal births & bites, and everything in-between. Watch this for a true peek into cowboy living that you donât see much of today.

U can sit in the hottest sauna in the city then go smoke a nice cigarette (or joint if u smoke kush) and wash it all down with a nice foreign beer and hot borscht soup. cold plunge smells a lil funky but it's worth it

Donât get me wrong - the Crypto/NFT bro culture thing is truly one of the worst and most bizzare corners of the world to me but in high school I bought a quarter pound of kush off of the Silk Road using bitcoin. (I split it with friend of the newsletter, Walter Pearce) The price of Bitcoin was 120ish dollars in 2013 and If I didnât get that dark web zaza it would have been worth $800,000 at the peak last year. Thatâs expensive kush. (Adjacent recommendation - donât smoke kush)

It is one of my favorite restaurants to go to in the city. Itâs an italian place in the west village on Christopher Street and truly only one of the places where you donât feel like you just got ripped off leaving. The spinach gorgonzola gnocchi goes crazy, The chicken milanese is fantastic and definitely get the grilled squid if youâre into those sort of things.
