I watched a trailer for something called I Like Movies yesterday.  It's about a cosmetically-overweight teenager in Canada. (I think that's  fairly sensitive? Not insensitive?) He's a fat kid with strong opinions:  the best kind. The kind that once upon a time I watched F & L in LV  and Fight Club and Monty Python movies with a hundred times  before he was... The I Like Movies thing looks pretty good.  It got me to realize that Cronenberg is kinda overrated.

And we invented our own safe-spaces,  where you were the least likely to get hassled by some  tallie who'd write you up and tell on you to your parents  unless you had the 2K on hand for a bribe...nobody had money  for bribes back then...  And by the time we were 15 or 16 or so and going to punk shows  in the city.
