If there’s anything I’m grateful for it’s that I found my life partner early enough to not have to fuck with dating apps in this day and age

Verified Campaign 🤍 We are Farah & Mohanad, a young couple from Gaza. The war took our home & livelihood 💔, but we hold onto hope. Your support means everything Verified by Butterfly Project No. 1184 linktr.ee/FarahSocialM... Donate goget.fund/3ZHHG3C Videos are on my Tumblr: tumblr.com/farrrahh

Jordan was very proud of me the other day bc I said the guy who plays Reacher would be a great Duke Nuke ‘Em

Evil. And they're wrong I feel the Israeli government know they're losing the straglehold on the narrative for the first time in decades and need to crush any morale in Gaza. We can't let them FROM.THE RIVER TO THE SEA PALESTINE WILL BE FREE

Doing a bunch of abortion research this week and the pro-life arguments against abortion pills (specifically those that pretend to give a shit about the “health impacts” on patients) largely just prove that they don’t understand how menstrual blood works

Glenn Erickson of CineSavant considers Godzilla vs Biollante, out in a new @criterion.bsky.social 4K Blu-ray, as the franchise's most interestingly stylized entry. This time, the mean-tempered monster faces off with a colossal surrealist vision. trailersfromhell.com/godzilla-vs-...

Couldn’t imagine a more cruel, fake progressive way to discuss the suppression of free speech, particularly when this “consequence” includes being torn away from his pregnant wife and being forced to sleep in awful conditions even for fucking jail

Almost finished Star Trek TOS. I think what I love about it overall is just the vision of people choosing to create better worlds. It’s been a genuine comfort with everything going on even though it often fails in exploring racial and gender themes (though I give it some grace for being the 60s)

Think it speaks to how desperate the average person is for money and the dream of becoming rich when they basically say “yeah I’d let someone spit in my face if they gave me $100 for it” like that’s not far off from the argument

That “criminal” is not coming out alive

I know I’m asking too much but ppl (especially young, discourse-centric queers) need to realize that conservatives see these stupid discourse points and use it against us. This is public info. So you should be careful about posting about that discourse including how you frame it

The funny thing about Roko’s Basilik is it sparked so many stupid debates among the “rationalists” (what these weird ai worshippers call themselves) that a pretty prominent forum for that discourse eventually banned discussion of it

Idk much about the production history but I doubt she was even on set that much so to them shes like “oh the lady who wrote the books and did press with us” meanwhile she obsesses over them.

Personally I think it’s weird how y’all see a woman (a fucking pop star mind you) do a single sexual thing and decide she is “appealing to the male gaze” and making feminism go 10 steps back. This is what I meant when I said it’s weird to put the weight of feminism on women artists

The Gruesome Twosome (1967, Herschell Gordon Lewis)

Musk is an idiot but don't believe when he says AI will be in everything in a few years it's because it'll be functional. He and other tech shitheads don't care that it'll work They care that it will sell and offload work done by people and their annoying ass demands like. I dunno. Eat

New list of abortion films directed/written by women boxd.it/ESwt4 🎥

I do hate how the weight of feminism tends to be put on women artists. It creates an unfair pressure of perfection that will always disappoint someone and really lead to intense stress on the artist. Especially sucks as it tends to be from the people who feign support at first.

Sometimes I stumble on parts of this app that remind me half of it is basically liberals replacement for Facebook

Letterboxd vibe check

Tbh cujo is one of those films which is already a perfect adaptation so sorry Aronofsky I don’t think you’ll improve upon it

Seeing discourse about the terribly stupid “roko’s basilisk” (a theory that evil, godlike ai is inevitable) and I do agree that weird techbros have this “well it’s inevitable so I must be the one to do it in the good way” attitude. I also think main character syndrome is a huge part of it

Part of why rhetoric is effective for someone is it spoke to something they already believed. You don’t just go “wow they can speak real good. I have been completely changed”.

David Zaslav is one of the only people who you can say hates fun and I wouldn’t contest you one but.
