Selection of my favorite part of The Love That Remains. As a new dad I found this very moving.
Now streaming on Criterion.

I live in a neighborhood in between two major roads. Our area is a stretch of apartments and single family homes with stop signs on each block. Folks will cut through our neighborhood very aggressively to get from one street to another. I have a ten month old baby and on multiple occasions I’ve been crossing the street pushing the baby carriage and a car that is at a complete stop across the street will start driving at me. They’ll swerve to get around me while I cross. It’s so unnerving and upsetting. To endanger a baby because you can’t wait ten seconds is unconscionable. What I fantasize about doing to these people I can’t even write here. But in the end I am completely powerless. I can’t confront them and even if I get their license plate - what would the cops even do? And these are young people and old people. I’m sure this happened to some degree in the past but I feel so different about it now that my baby is put at risk. God forbid one of these drivers would make an error. It seems completely insane.

The fact that paypal is removed from payment options for bands is such a pain for my band. I am in a band with multiple members. Using paypal allowed us to easily split up our income - we could see what money comes in and just split it evenly between us. Having it go into one person's bank account seems so much more irritating for keeping track of money and for handling taxes. Do folks have an easy way they handle this?
