If you have the means to help a sweet pup on this Giving Tuesday, my cousins’ sweet Mocha has been in and out of surgeries and as we know, that is devastatingly expensive. Any help/shares are much appreciated! gofund.me/ea353983a

As if things can't get worse, my cat has a tumor that needs to be removed. So, if anyone needs covers done for them, I am very, very open. Check out my portfolio below and get into contact with me. lanelloyd.crevado.com/cover-work

Did YOU know that the Chattanooga Film Fest is a non-profit completely volunteer run org that lives and dies based on our yearly fundraising efforts? If you care about the arts & hate AI as much as we do this Giving Tuesday consider making a tax deductible donation and helping us make good trouble!

you know I had to do this

firefox AI and slop disablers from tumblr for the people from local hero mckitterick. Tried it on my end and the browser is significantly faster now (copy paste-able in the alt text)

Keep it going

further insults to injury on world AIDS day — not being recognized by the united states for the first time since it first began being observed in 1988 incredible strides made in science & medicine in the treatment & prevention of HIV being destroyed for literally NO defensible reason

sorry I keep yapping about this but I fell down stairs yesterday, only a broken toe but the rest of me is sore and bruised and swollen. some of you have already been lovely and helped out but if anyone else can and wants to it would be great for a few conveniences this week 💕💸 ca/vm: hypercubexl

Just finished this new Return to Oz piece!

There's something spiteful and contemptuous about the way Netflix refuses to give a halfway decent theatrical release to creatively ambitious films by brand-name directors. Like they're trying to make sure we all know that they hate doing it.

This framing completely changes the context of what Brolin actually said in the original interview: www.the-independent.com/arts-enterta...

I was not aware till today there was a Godzilla Christmas Song officially sanctioned by Toho called Kaiju Christmas: youtu.be/Bk1H4Gg7YxE

The stranglehold that this sketch has on me…

I love love LOVED Wake Up Dead Man. It has been a long while since I loved a movie so much that it made me giggle after it ended. It’s a feeling/reaction I’ve missed.

Over the course of one day, I watched: -Hamnet (loved it, made me think of losing my cat, cried a lot) -Excalibur (enjoyed Merlin and Morgana) -Gone in 60 Seconds (the Nic Cage movie, silly/dated/fun) -Promising Young Woman (very much worked for me, Mulligan incredible, Fennell is a great director)

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

This is such incredible news

Bee is excellent, a member of the horror family, a great reviewer and above all a fellow human being. If you can help keep them all housed please do, if you can't contribute right now then a signal boost is brilliant.

I've spent a lot of holidays on my own. And I've definitely been the guy who had to work while all my fellow employees have been off with their families. So if you're working or alone this holiday, much love to you. May the day treat you well, pass quickly, and be devoid of assholes. Love you guys.

A *huge* vaccine victory. I've been writing on this for years; Australia has seen remarkable progress in cervical cancer prevention with the HPV vaccine. I love seeing science triumph like this.

And Kenta Fukasaku was inspired by THE LONG WALK and Stephen King was inspired by THE LOTTERY and Shirley Jackson was inspired by… This discourse was tired in 2012 and it’s tired now, but it’s certainly rich coming from the guy promoting a four and a half hour LADY SNOWBLOOD fanfic right now.

I'm really digging Pluribus!

Big Nick has been abducted

Good news Frankenfans - Guillermo del Toro has confirmed that FRANKENSTEIN will have a physical media release, complete with deleted scenes.

I once asked a bookseller at a large indie store how many people would have to buy a book for it to get the attention of the store buyer and cause an additional order and they said: Three.

Do… people really read the ending of For Good as a happy/redemptive one for Glinda?? Because I very much did not.

Also, no one seems to talk about all the MeToo accusations leveled at Ratner anymore.

Really happy with this new piece from Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein!

a message to all underpaid production assistants:

Help us send 2,000 books to readers who are incarcerated this winter through our Books Not Bars program

When misogyny is baked into every aspect of existence, how do we know when a critique is not the result of an implicit bias or overt hatred for women? And when do we know praise is coming from a place of sincerity and not defensiveness? #WickedForGood www.slashfilm.com/2033262/wick...

How AP News whitewashes genocide. TESTING THE CEASEFIRE?? Israel is *BREAKING* the ceasefire. Do you really think this would be the headline if Hamas killed 24 Israelis? AP doesn’t even have the integrity to say Israel killed Palestinians. “Are dead” is passive to avoid attributing liability.

feels like a good time to share my essay about one of the best Batman movies, because it also happens to be one of the best Christmas movies

Just added Danny Torrance to my new series of pieces from The Shining

Got a bit personal on Letterboxd, sorry not sorry 🤷🏻

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

wrote a little "state of Paramount" piece because they just released a movie where someone Luigis the head of a Paramount-like entity www.avclub.com/the-running-...

The greatest cinematic question of all time has been answered by WICKED: FOR GOOD. Yes, there are guns in the magical land of Oz.
