Summer is in the air here, and #defconmovienight is celebrating with Kathryn Bigelow’s 1991 ‘Point Break’. Surf, sun and Swayze. Bankrobbers and Busey. Join us for the chills, thrills and the toxic bromance. We’ll be in the Discord (discord.gg/defcon) in the movie-night-text channel at 8pm PDT this Saturday.

DEF CON Homework alert! This Saturday #defconmovienight is showing ‘Wall-E’, a film that touches on many of the theme ideas of #defcon33. Some questions to ponder when you watch our boxy little hero save the future: Why is the ship called ‘Axiom’? Are we closer to the cozy dystopia Wall-E suggests? What do you think Earth looks like 10-20-100 years from the film’s ending? How do we best resist the fate of the short-fingered humans of the Axiom? Join us Saturday 8pm PDT in the movie-night-text channel of the discord (discord.gg/defcon) for film and conversation. Liquified pastries optional. #defcon image
