"Christopher Plummer and James Mason offer up one of my all-time favourite incarnations of Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson, respectively..."

In Memory of #DonaldSutherland:
My ★★★★½ review of #MurderByDecree on @Letterboxd.

Murder By Decree felt like an illicit movie to me when I was growing up. A Sherlock Holmes film that was actually 18-rated. And it always seemed to shown really late on ITV. Wonder how it'll strike me now. May have to revisit it. #MurderByDecree

Saw this for the first time at the cinema a little while ago and was very pleasantly surprised. Would like to see more takes on Holmes like it. #murderbydecree

🕵️‍♂️ What happens when Sherlock Holmes hunts Jack the Ripper? Murder By Decree (1979) is a chilling detective thriller blending history, horror, and conspiracy. Christopher Plummer shines as Holmes in this dark and gripping mystery!

Vu #MurderbyDecree (1979) Sherlock Holmes enquête sur les crimes de Jack l’Eventreur - un film à la fois suranné (avec son all-star cast british) et très moderne avec une ambiance gothique à la lisière du fantastique. Entre la Hammer et le ciné paranoïaque très 70s.

#MurderByDecree: Sherlock Holmes v Jack the Ripper.

Although overlong, I quite like this thanks to the prod design and the perfs of Christopher Plummer as Holmes (not to mention his chemistry w/James Mason as Watson) and small appearances by John Gielgud & Susan Clark.

Terrific ending. Fun theory.

Elon Musk said DOGE made a mistake by cutting USAID’s Ebola prevention but it had been “restored.”

That’s not true, current and former officials told me and @johnphudson.bsky.social.

“There have been no efforts to ‘turn on’” Ebola prevention, said Nidhi Bouri, who oversaw team until January.
Musk claims DOGE ‘restored’ Ebola prevention effort. Officials disagree.
USAID’s initiatives to fight Ebola and other diseases have been gutted, current and former agency officials said.

This is terrifying.
Breaking: FDA's March meeting to select flu shot strains for 2025-2026 season has been canceled per email sent to committee members, a VRBPAC member told me. drug companies need about 6 months leeway to make shots in time for fall vax campaigns. #healthpolicy

#Fascism and #TheNerdReich in action. Destroying #PublicServices and #Privatizing the #USA for their friend's profit - #Health #MurderByDecree
So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID.

This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC.

What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.
Elon Musk: "We will make mistakes. We won't be perfect ... so for example, with USAID, one of the things we accidentally canceled very briefly was ebola prevention."

#Fascism is #Evil, #USA - #MurderByDecree - Do #FascistFluffers really want to be associated with state sanctioned #Murder?
Luke Farritor is not “letting them die”, he is actively breaking the law and withholding life saving meds from the most vulnerable.

He is actively killing people on Musk’s orders. This is a death squad.

We won’t forget his face or his crimes.

At this very moment, republicans in Congress are voting to actually end the lives of thousands upon thousands of Americans.

They're voting to kill people to give tax breaks to the wealthy.

LET'S NOT SUGAR COAT THIS SHIT!

Pass it on.
