ODDITY (2024) dir. Damian McCarthy

It has always been true that only a fraction of the readership reads long pieces. Or reads past the jump, as they used to say in the newspaper biz. The ones who read it all are called "readers." And they are more likely to subscribe to the publication and/or become lifelong fans of the writer.

Bless THE PITT for adding mullet lesbians to the cast. I’m currently searching for a nice lady who enjoys answering questions like, “Hey babe, why is the ceiling fan making that noise?” so I appreciate it.

I keep going to bed earlier and earlier to escape the micro and macro horrors. Surely I will eventually lap myself in the space-time continuum and create a second Jessica who will either help me navigate life or enable a much-needed bloody catharsis by engaging in a battle to the death with me.

I haven’t worked out consistently in about a decade, but my new trainer just told me I should be in one of her videos because my form is perfect. 💅

Doing mundane shit like going to the dentist and renewing my car tags during The Crusades 2: This Time with Nukes! makes me feel like I’m losing my mind.

I really, really, really need Delroy Lindo to win an Oscar this year.

A reminder that Harrison Ford is doing some of the best work of his career on Shrinking.

I always forget about Mia Goth’s Gashlycrumb Tinies voice

Jayme Lawson from Sinners hit the nail on the head and said how I felt with the whole BAFTAs situation.

Me, finally starting to get it after 42 years: I have to stay alive so I can write books, make art, give cats a home, learn as much as I can, and put as much love as possible out into the world Also me: I have to stay alive to see who they cast on Traitors All-Stars

Make a zine about your feelings and things you think people can do and join you to do to help. Make an emotional zine. Make a zine about questions you want to ask people to think on during these times. Make a poetry zine about the realities we live through but hardly take the time to feel through.

Make something TANGIBLE and HAND IT TO SOMEONE and talk to them. Leave little pieces of joy in your area. Engage with little free libraries, the real library, and your local zinesters and self-publishing small press groups. Talk to your organizing groups. Go to a resource fair. Sign-up. Love people.

Join us in March as we pay tribute to beloved character actor Bud Cort, who built a career out of making the unusual so unforgettable 🌼 🎟️: thefridacinema.org/film-series/...

Grindhouse girlies 🤝 TCM cat moms sitting bolt upright during your first viewing of IRMA LA DOUCE and asking your cats, “Is that Tura Satana?!” the instant she appears onscreen and then cackling triumphantly when her name appears in the credits a few moments later

"When I was just starting out, I hadn’t done anything, my résumé was blank. And a casting person said, what do you want for your career in five, 10 years? And I said well, I want to be respected for my work...But that’s what I’ve got. Being respected for my work." www.nytimes.com/2026/02/25/m...

I do this as a matter of course anyway, but I’m blocking extra hard if I see anyone referring to the United States murdering Iranian schoolgirls as a “distraction.”

The world could be such a nice place if we allowed it. It's all so goddamn unnecessary. There's no need for any of it. It's so beautiful here. It should be so cool to be alive

they had four years to bury this guy under the jail

I already have my next few tattoos planned, but damn if I don’t need this soon.

every single piece of news in america is like ok we never did bread. but we're cancelling the circuses

H.R. 7661 is a national book banning bill which seeks to remove any book that "involves gender dysphoria or transgenderism" from all public schools in the US. This would ban all my books, & any other book with trans themes, from public schools. PLEASE call your House Reps & say: NO ON H.R. 7661!

Many of y’all asked how you can support and donate to our female athletes and the celebrations,,, so I created a Go Fund Me. I’m hopeful this can have an impact beyond the weekend and help those that represent the best of the US gofund.me/140322128

Who up singing the J.G. Wentworth jingle

Watching my favorite Simpsons episode for the millionth time. It beats doing stuff.

To other film festivals out there, especially those of you that regularly platform films from the major studios. Now seems like a great time to NOT DO THAT. If three total companies are going to own the world we all have a responsibility to work harder than ever to discover and platform new voices.

the party that wants to require ID to vote abruptly invalidating a thousand people’s IDs overnight seems like a pretty giant flashing red light

I cannot despair I have to keep onward and we all must keep onward and pour our hearts out and do our good work so someday there is an end to this where all the wronged peoples of the world are victorious and relieved and the next generation is rejoicing and all the tyrants are ashes they dance in.

I've written up a brief script for anyone who wants to call or write your representatives regarding this bill (yes, even the ones you think won't care). PLEASE DO THIS IF YOU ARE ABLE. This bill *cannot* pass. You can find your representatives here: www.congress.gov/members/find...

This is what I need cis folks to understand. It's been a decade. Imagine living TEN FUCKING YEARS watching as a blatant, artificial campaign to erase your personhood, your identity and your safety chugs along, increasing in power every single day, and most people don't care or dismiss it

Poem in the Shape of the Poet Beating Henry Kissinger to Death with Their Bare Hands by Felix

This Saturday is the Goths for Breakfast charity day. Goths unite! We're raising money for Magic Breakfast to feed hungry kids with a teaching marathon of fascinating talks and writing workshops. Pop in and out as you like - the talks are recorded! www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/1982926549...

Hot take: if you post some bullshit by accident, you should both delete it AND post an explanation/apology. Doesn't have to be a big deal at all! Just say you screwed up and posted some bullshit by accident and deleted it! It's easy and appreciated and if you DON'T do it, you lose trust.

OK, I’m doing this If you live in Philadelphia and have (or know of someone who has) a room for rent, please hit me up privately ASAP One of my best friends on Earth is escaping an abusive living environment and needs somewhere safe to land by SUNDAY, MARCH 1st Please spread the word for me

“Sex Cauldron?! I thought they closed that place down!” It’s a perfect encapsulation of the show’s humor and far more useful in casual conversation than you might expect.

Jessica Henwick keeps almost but not quite popping off, which vexes me. She should be getting Glen Powell's push.

When Stevie sees me, she stands at the door and screams until I go outside to pet her and give her treats. My crew always supervises:

My neighbor Stevie is enjoying the cat house I put on my deck for her.

This is really on the BAFTAS and the BBC. The most racist and ableist thing that happened that night was actually both entities not bleeping it, not doing after care with Delroy and MBJ, and not fully acknowledging it on the broadcast. 1/

I don’t remember taking my meds tonight but I don’t want to risk taking them twice. If I don’t wake up at 3:00 AM with Michael Flatley-style RLS (thanks, perimenopause!), I definitely took them. 🤞🏻

This is important y’all. This is our chance to save the stars.

This is the most incredible footage of blue whales I’ve ever seen

Please admire my boys

The main thing to understand about the 90s political ecosystem is that this would have caused a weeks long conservative freakout, but one which was highly opportunistic in its volume yet substantively mostly sincere
