Here’s one thing I really, really like about P BAT. A few weeks ago, someone raised an alarm about vandalism on the Lagos Calabar Coastal Road barricade, and today, it’s already being fixed,with a better method to reduce future vandalism. There are leaders we both know that, no matter...

Sidney Lumet on the theme of "Daniel" (1983): "I don’t know if I’ve ever said this publicly, but I’ve done three movies, 'Daniel' (1983), 'Running on Empty' (1988), and 'Family Business' (1989), that are thematically the same thing—the cost that others pay for one’s passions—and I only recognized this after wards. It really begins with 'Daniel'. As I’ve said so often about 'Daniel', I wasn’t ever denying its political nature, but I was not being disingenuous when I also said it’s the exact same suffering that I’m talking about that kids have when their parents are artists. Any deep emotional commitment on the part of the parents is going to cost something . . . not just to the parents but also almost always to the children. Now, it can be a constructive cost or a destructive one. There are too many factors that go into it for me to try to label it one way or the other but there is no doubt that there is a cost. The positive side—one of the positive sides—is that the kids learn about passion, learn about commitment, learn about a million things that I personally admire. The destructive side is that nobody’s home, even when they’re home. If it’s the father he’s not really there. If it’s the mother, she’s not really there. Maybe there are geniuses who can do it all, but I don’t know who they are. A lot of my friends for some reason are people who have worked in musical comedy, in the theater, and the big joke among the people who write the book and the lyrics and the music is there are two great secrets to doing it, there are two secrets to doing a great musical and nobody knows what they are. And I feel that way about child-raising. There are two great secrets for raising children and nobody knows what they are. When Edgar [E. L. Doctorow] and I were being interviewed and talking to people about 'Daniel' and explaining that passion and commitment doesn’t have to be just about politics, that it can be about a stockbroker, about anybody who has a central source of passion outside of the family itself, people thought that we were trying to deny the political ramifications of the movie. Never! We were just saying that it’s broader than the Communist Party, U.S.A. And I was very bothered by the reception that the picture got, first of all because I felt that the reception was political. I certainly know it was political as far as the New York Times went. When you analyze the movie, when you really look at it from a moviemaking point of view, it’s a brilliant movie. It’s an extraordinary movie. And that was never acknowledged." (Sidney Lumet's interview with Joanna E. Rapf, 2003) P.S: Remembering the legendary American filmmaker Sidney Lumet on his 102nd birthday!

"One of the challenging things about the really important stuff in life is that they’re endless battles. If you do a good job focusing today and prioritizing today, if you pick the right thing to focus on, it earns you no bonus points for tomorrow. Tomorrow you show up, and if you spend all that time on YouTube or getting distracted or whatever, that day is gone. Other things are like that, too. Just because you worked out two weeks ago doesn’t mean you don’t need to do it today. Or just because you were a good spouse yesterday, that earns you no bonus points for today. You still need to show up for them. And so I’m trying to get comfortable with the endless nature of those things. A lot of the time we try to resist the endless nature of that stuff. “Oh, I wish it wasn’t that way.” We try to convince ourselves that it’s like a finish line. “If I just do this 21-day cleanse, then I’ll be a healthy person and I won’t have to think about it anymore. If I just buy her something nice for her anniversary, then I can stop worrying about it and I don’t have to [do other things].” No, it’s not like that. It’s endless. As soon as you accept the endless nature, you start looking at it differently. You say, “Okay, it’s not about getting to a particular finish line; it’s about living a daily life that feels sustainable and that I like and that I’m fully engaged in. So it’s about liking my days."

soobin clocking solo fans🫢 🐰we’re going to appear on salon drip together, and we talked about everything there. i don’t know how it’ll be edited, but when we were drinking that day, we talked about a lot of things. and we ended up revealing all of that on salon drip. 🐰before going on the show, yeonjun hyung and i talked and said “let’s be really honest about what happened that day on salon drip” so when we filmed, we talked about lot things to the point that “is it okay to talk this much?” 🐰so for you guys, i trust you won’t, but just in case i’ll say it, before we appeared together, we agreed to talk about everything honestly, even things we might want to hide. so there might be some parts where you’re like “huh?”“wait, what?” but everything we talked about is something we both agreed on and were okay with sharing 🐰there are some people who can be a bit sensitive, like solo fans, but yeonjun hyung and i talked everything through beforehand, so please don’t take it too seriously and just enjoy it. i made it sound serious, but it’s not, don’t worry. it’s just the kind of things you can talk about on a variety show, it’s just that we talked about them for the first time 🐰you know how it is… you know, right? even without saying it😅 as solo fandoms start to form, i just hope fans don’t end up fighting each other 🐰 because we’re all on the same team, the five of us are really close and care about and love each other a lot, so please support all the members, even if you have a bias
