who *wouldn’t* want to get rimmed by a robot, every day of their life

I would still like to staff on a television show btw. A live action half hour comedy would be very good. Or a WGA covered adult animated half hour. Just saying!!!!! thanks

Absolute all-timer sentence in today's @nytimes.com

Remember that boycotts aren't just about getting changes. They are also about your own conscience. If a boycott doesn't change anything at the company, you can still not support them. I'm quite sure that Coca-cola doesn't care that I don't buy their products, but I care, so I don't support them.

i think this picture, from a public promo stream for a video games starring one of the most popular comic book characters of all time owned by the disney corporation, should be used on every single story about storefronts taking down lgbt content

signed this. easy to do. support independent press. support artists. give trans people money. fuck nazis. fuck ICE. free Palestine.

You cannot kill me in a way that matters.

working with my pal on our star wars pitch today. it opens with 3 very compelling, deceptively simple words: “somehow Greedo returned”

i love the first week after you get your knives sharpened. knives are still super sharp, but you haven't had time yet to forget about it and cut your thumb off

And Butch & Sundance is on Disney+

I tend not to eulogize most folks On Here, because it’d be a full time feed. People die, that’s the ticket. But it’s breaking my brain to imagine we live in a post-Redford art form as of today.

Some news: yesterday was my last at Rolling Stone. For now, I'm going solo, doing all my TV reviewing, recapping, etc., at my newsletter. I hope you'll consider subscribing. Many more details here:

gettin to be about that time around here

If you're as angry as I am about how our trans brothers & sisters were treated this week, remember that not all of them got the loving parents we did & end up on the streets. Maybe today is a great day to donate to a local shelter & give trans kids a roof over their heads and the love they deserve.

“Many of the facile defenses of Kirk and his legacy are predicated on the idea that it’s acceptable to spread hateful ideas advocating for the persecution of perceived enemies as long you dress them up in a posture of debate. This is just class privilege.”

Putting on my publicist hat here and seeking film writers who have an emphasis on gay cinema. I have a pretty solid list, but always looking for others! Please hit me up!

Me living by the sword: Swords rule Me dying by the sword: Ugheueghhh

just refilling my meds and…

if even half the people in the 7-hour-plus line for the Criterion Closet can prove they own blu-ray players I will give every person here a shiny Canadian dollar!!! #physicalmediaisnotdead

I wrote a review of The Paper, about a local newspaper in Toledo, Ohio. The show is kind of about journalism, but it's mostly about how we have lost touch with the world that we live in every day, and gotten used to nobody being held accountable for their actions. www.vulture.com/article/the-...

lovely running into @normwilner.bsky.social out in the rain this morning and telling him — which I shall repeat to you — that his newsletter has made me pull the trigger on physical media releases I might not have otherwise. consider that both a warning and a recommendation shiny-things.ghost.io

Canadians! There is a petition to sign to protest Mastercard and Visa's control over the purchase of legal adult content. This is specifically about the Steam & itchio situation, but language protects adult creators. www.ourcommons.ca/petitions/en... #nsfw #censorship #canpoli @acvalens.net

kara next year, then this a summer later?? we are cooking with GREASE in the new dcu

Niko is obvi right and one effect of this is that the media narrative surrounding transness calcifies us as objects of oppression, rather than subjects capable of living a life outside that narrow band of our experience. Which perpetuates the dehumanization.

i'll be unpacking a lot of delightful bits of last night's ALIEN EARTH for a while, but right now it's all about how there's no embroidery on Teng after all: he's not an android or a double agent or a psychotic, he's just a fucking man being a fucking creep in fucking space because he can

Israel killed two more journalists on Tuesday: Eman Al Zamli and Rasmi Jihad Salem. Reported by TRT World, quoting Gaza Media Office.

bluesky hasn’t become massive but it’s not because we’re an echo chamber, it’s because we’re annoying in a ton of other ways and i think that’s beautiful

we’re one move away from “air is woke,” don’t fuck it up

do people who run know they have that look on their face

This is good, you should read this.

really gotta hand it to the knob down at TTC who, with unlimited design possibilities for the new service alert styling, went with “No Frills”

Just a heads up. I was able to schedule my COVID vaccine appointment. Online it will ask “do you have a condition that puts you at high risk for severe outcomes from COVID-19 virus.” Click yes and it will allow you to schedule an appointment. No questions asked. No proof required. Pass it on.
