You have roughly 40 minutes left to back this. I have high hopes that someday America will look less bleak, and we’ll look to artifacts like this and remember with pride the people who fought for decency and democracy with humor.

If you see this, QTP with a horror movie that shares the same first letter as your name 👻

Explain your username: It’s a heterograph of my name.

Spell your name with movie titles 📽️ (Horror Movie Edition) D - Dementia A - Anguish V - Village of the Damned I - I Drink Your Blood D - Dangerous Animals

If you see this, QTP with a gift of a vampire that isn't Dracula. 🦇 The automobile from Ferat Vampire (1982)

Getting into the full swing of the season. #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd #filmsky 📽️🍿

25 pages of blast, on behalf of trans youth. I’m proud of my Attorney General, @kwameraoul.bsky.social for organizing this.

The 90’s get a him rap for being a bad era for horror. It was weird, but not bad. Gonna enjoy this series.

The more I think about The Severed Arm, the more I like it. May need to bump it up a half star. #lastfourwatched #letterboxdfriday #letterboxd #filmsky 📽️🍿

#letterboxd #LastFourWatched #LastFourFriday #Filmsky 📽 ♥️ Cartoon demons, vehicular mayhem, supernatural noir, and a kidnapping action movie.

I laughed aloud at this

While driving past my local strip club, I noticed these words emblazoned over its doors: “The greatest right a nation can afford its people is the right to be left alone.” - Larry Flynt. Something to reflect on.

at their core, trans rights, abortion rights, and vaccine rights are actually all the same issue: they’re all about bodily autonomy, and the willingness to concede any of them puts the others at risk.

Now, I don’t think anyone’s dead… but I am working on the logistics of how to fly a flag at double-mast.

Hey, @willsloanesq.bsky.social: I’m looking forward to seeing you in Chicago next week. Will you have copies of Made in Hollywood, USA in tow?

Drop something ARMOURED

RT if you also wish ill upon JK Rowling.

It’s ‘champing at the bit,’ not ‘chomping at the bit.’ It’s ’intents and purposes,’ not ‘intensive purposes.’

On mediaburn's site you'll also find a large collection of Sykes' films, and yes all available to watch for free, if you're into Video Art and Experimental Cinema you need to check out this site, it's truly great. Make sure to spread the word and support! mediaburn.org/watch-videos...

What gif pops up when you type your name? It’s also today’s mood.

Pity. This would have been an ideal time for Costco to begin offering it.

Knee-jerk reaction says ‘Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid.’

We’re allowing hundreds of Palestinian people to die every week. I feel helpless, but something I can do is urge anyone who sees this to donate to the Palestine Children’s Relief Fund. www.pcrf.net

I’ve been very pleased with what Brackenbury Books has been doing for the sword’n’sorcery genre. They’re in OT for their latest release! Consider chipping in!

We’ve got to stop calling it “alligator Alcatraz,” which feels like a nickname that’s supposed to be “clever.” Name it what it is: the DeSantis Concentration Camp.

Happy #LetterboxdFriday #LastFourWatched

Ten of my favorite “weird” movies, listed as they sprang to mind: Happiness of the Katakuris The Saragossa Manuscript Fish & Cat Häxan Radioactive Dreams Dead Mountaineer’s Hotel Lisztomania The Love God? G.I. Samurai Tomorrow I’ll Wake Up and Scald Myself with Tea

Today is Captain America’s birthday, post a Captain America (yeah, Commander is below Captain. Whatever.)

Hi, @stereolabgroop.bsky.social and @supergrasshq.bsky.social . I was thrilled to no end to get tickets to your fall shows in Chicago. You’ve both been favorites of mine for 30+ yrs. I won’t begrudge you if you boycott the U.S. now. I think I probably would not come here, if I were in your shoes.

Now playing the 1947 short "Don't Be A Sucker", something half the country apparently forgot to watch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vGAq...

Drop some FIREARMS 💥🔫🖤 i.gifer.com/7Faa.gif

Looks like I missed it by 2 days, but happy 35th birthday to Gremlins 2. It came out at an extremely formative time for me, and I hold it dear. Thank you, @thejoedante.bsky.social for making a comedy that cemented my love for absurdity, character actors, and success in biting the hand that feeds.

Drop something WINGED 🪽🦋🦇🛩️🖤 (Neon Slime, sang by Wings Hauser) youtu.be/KvUx_PgoYFg?...

I didn’t think I’d get star-struck post 25 years old. And yet. At the opening night of 2007’s Chicago International Film Fest, I turned and almost ran into Udo Kier. I shouldn’t have been surprised he was there, but all was able to do was announce “It’s Udo Kier!” As if he wasn’t aware.

Drop something GOLD 🥇👑🏆💛

My favorite new-to-me movies from May:

Fuck it. Trans folks need MATERIAL SUPPORT. @distributeaid.org is launching an HRT Harm Reduction Toolkit that provides 1 year of medical supplies needed to take injection-based HRT. We were planning to go live in January, but I'm not waiting. Fund the kits here: distributeaid.org/hrt-harm-red...

If I ran a demolition derby I’d be buying up all the Cybertrucks and Teslas I could for cheap from people looking to ditch ‘em. Audiences would pay good money to see those things smash into each other and get crushed by Grave Digger.

RIP George Wendt

Cheers seems like it was probably a very fun show to work on.

In awe of the bravery of college students standing up for Palestinian lives in their graduation speeches knowing they can have their degree withheld for the apparent sin of asserting that human beings shouldn’t be murdered indiscriminately

Hey, fellow Americans: If you get a minute today, could you please leave a comment to the effect of “fuck off with deregulating the Endangered Species Act?” Today’s the last day the docket is open to public comments. www.federalregister.gov/documents/20...

It’s #LetterboxdFriday! My #LastFourWatched, if #Filmsky cares. *Self-help comedy without ghosts of Christmas past, present, or future *Bonkers alien invasion movie that turns into a kaiju Silas fight *Ralph Fiennes Nancy-Drewing around the Sistine Chapel *Never fall in love with an unserious man

Hey, @musicboxtheatre.bsky.social are these prices right? Looks… backward.

Salvatore Dalí, born on this day in 1911. Did you know that he collaborated with Walter E. Disney on an animated short? It wasn’t completed during their lifetimes, but this is as close as we’ll see of their shared vision: youtu.be/FIYH5XSSD2k?...

#letterboxdfriday #lastfourwatched #filmsky *A misanthropic classic *a movie needing a How Did This Get Made episode *a sexy espionage thriller that’s more about gathering information than it is about action *a movie that’s like watching someone play a video game

Louis Theroux’s The Settlers is essential viewing. The U.S. is foolish to think the Zionist nationalist settlers that have been encroaching would consider anyone but themselves fit to rule Gaza, which (last time I checked) is not theirs to rule. archive.org/details/loui...

Jucika plays a modular harsh ambient set

#Letterboxd #LastFourWatched #LastFourFriday #Filmsky Race, consumerism, death… it’s been a deft and engaging last four!
