Guillermo del Toro says he would be interested in doing a new ‘PHANTOM OF THE OPERA’ film “It’s such a classic tale but I would do it differently. I have a couple of ideas but for now, I’m going into crime and stop-motion” (Source: @inverse.com)

Sometimes, my cat will do something, and I'll have to comb through my memories of the last 10 years to figure out when exactly he learned to do that.

Patience is not enough. I need to reach Kolinahr.

*muffled sounds of essays I'll never write behind a pillow* What? Nothing.

Reading the articles of the Venice Film Festival while I cry.

Students don’t need chromebooks and AI tutors, they need Shakespeare and Jane Austen and the Greek myths, they need the Arthurian Legends and the Arabian Nights, they need constant exposure to nature, fairytales, folklore, poetry and beauty.

I am, first of all, incredibly grateful it will be in at least some theaters. I am, secondly, very sad that the theatre release breaks with the "it was on a dreary night of November..."

I honestly think not enough people talk about Nick meeting that guy, fully stopping his narration, and then picking up right after hooking up with him. We talk about the Great Gatsby a lot, but not about that part.

I made a list of the books I own and haven't read, and it wasn't that bad. I think I can buy more books, honestly. Kinda should.

Every time someone implies that classics have an indecipherable language or are too pretentious, I remember: "If he be Mr Hyde, I shall be Mr Seek" That's the dumbest joke in the world, and I love it so much.

Doctor Who taking "You'll never get away from the sound of the woman that loves you" to a whole different level

A pillow is not enough, I need to scream into a wormhole.

Bucky's jacket from The Falcon and the Winter Soldier ❤️

Well, okay. Fuck you. *unvisuals your metaphors*

The key to be able to get through difficult/tense/incredibly sad scenes in a story is to blast Funky Town through them. It's worked 2/3 times for me.

It would've made sense is Pleakley used the human disguise *and* was also in drag. Pleakley doesn't know how humans work. He might do drag because he thought it would look nice. Humans do it.

Why do I feel tired? It couldn't be the four hours I slept last night, I've been only sleeping four hours for a week already -she said to no one, because that is how sleep deprived she is.

I started reading this one fic as a joke. And I am now too invested. This has to stop happening to me.

Starting a journal has been very bad for my oversharing tendencies.

I do think the expectation that everyone will see the movie on opening weekend is insane. I also think it is kinda cute. It's a spoiler than imo, doesn't really ruin anything.

By the age of thirty you should have an all-consuming obsession with one era of history. If you haven’t yet developed a fixation on an historical era, one will be assigned to you shortly.

I can die once I finish my tbr, and not a day before.

In bad news: I think I got sick, and I feel like shit. In good news: I'm halfway through the book I'm reading. Also, I have a cat.

Sending strength to my trans siblings in the UK today and sending nothing but hate to terfs, general transphobes, and cowardly "just asking questions" journalists who enable our oppression. Congrats on punching down to one of the most vulnerable populations in society.

hanging by a thread but at least i can keep on relating to this is me trying

Sometimes, I think "maybe modern prose is not my thing," and then I read modern prose that hits me like a brick.

First poster for ‘INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE’ Season 3. Releasing in 2026 on AMC.

For some reason, I woke up thinking today was Wednesday and felt just a brief, bright, moment of joy finding out it's not.

Achieving katabasis just so I can punch Ovid in the face. I can't do this anymore.

Are they going to talk about the.. About the...

The watch party of my dreams. *The doors are locked. My friends can't escape. My PowerPoint presentation is queued right after*

I want to rewatch and reread everything, and I also get overwhelmed with already knowing what will happen every time

Still remember the time my work had me so stressed that It Comes at Night became my comfort movie of the week.

Five year plan: Forcing all of my friends to watch all of the Purge movies so I can move past the "why is literally everyone doing this" conversation.

The last two hours have been a tough couple of years

There's two and a half hours left of this book, and I am calling it: it was the dad. If I am wrong. I am wrong. There have been no actual red herrings so far. Idk what we're doing.

I don’t know why people want literature to be relatable, I mostly read to get as far away from myself as possible.

Nightmares torment me in my wake. Nightmares of not being able to read all my books in the language they were written.

My headphones ran out of battery, and I was suddenly able to finish a short story I had been struggling with, and start an essay I was putting off... Anyway, they're charged now.

Can’t believe the knives are already out in the stores. The Ides of March gets more commercialized every year.

the five love languages are cats, cakes, a stately manor home in the English countryside, teaming up to catch the murderer and putting down my book so I can talk to you.
