Realizing we have been using the term "friend" way too liberally. I think we all do today. We should probably bring back words like "colegue" or "Aquaintence" or "Schoolmate" or "associate" or "contact". The word friend, and the meaning behind it does not carry the same meaning to everyone.

So now the worste Spiderman days we should support a transphobe because Radcliffe was really good in the movies... smh

On the road a day and already miss my prince.

Norris proudly endorsed Donald Trump he spoke out against LGBTQ+ rights, including same-sex marriage and LGBTQ+ acceptance in the Boy Scouts of America. He backed Moore for the Senate, who had been removed for judicial misconduct and accused of SA by children. So.... no.

So four multi-millionaires represented the best interests of blue-collar crew members? uh-hu... As my UAW Grandfathers would both say, "Now pull the other leg..." iatse.net/president-lo...

If we trust their advice, we also trust their criticism. If we don't trust their advice, then we do not trust their criticism. Farshtay?

So, infamous abusers and narcissists Marky Mark and that guy from that Disney show are insecure, obnoxious, and homophobic? This is my shocked face...

I don’t care what’s been done in the past. I don’t care how much history she has with us. Our community is on fire. We are being ravaged. And we don’t need childish, religious, deliberate idiocy. It’s dangerous and I’m done. Nobody invited her into this conversation. So get out. And stay out.

✨MARK YOUR CALENDARS✨ Starting March 24, visionary filmmaker Bi Gan’s ravishing third feature RESURRECTION — his deepest plunge yet into the realm of pure dreamscape — will begin streaming exclusively on the Criterion Channel alongside a new Meet the Filmmakers interview with the writer-director!

Today I want us to skate to Joe's for a slice, make it to Washington Square for a 10, then back up 9th to roll one and play Contra at your place. We'll blast Overkill or Sodom, bust our ass trying the impossible on our boards, slam into each other in our personal pit, then fall asleep on the floor.

13 years ago, today, a wonderful human had his life violently taken because a patch on his battle vest showed his lifelong allyship. There were witnesses who did nothing. He was one of the first people to be truly kind to me. He was the first and closest "ride or die" friend I ever had.

Poetry as revolution Arthur O’Shaughnessy’s Ode reminds me that poetry has always been a quiet revolution. Not loud, not violent, just persistent. A few lines carried forward until they change how we see the world. The dreamers make the future. The poets just say it first.

“Timothee Chalamet’s ‘Nobody cares about the opera or ballet’ comment points to larger cultural issues: how manosphere brain rot has made straight artists forget their place and the audiences who built them..." - Leo Herrera

Honesty not tempered with kindness is most often fruitless. It serves as no beacon for change. Try, it isn't easy, but try to temper your honesty with kindness, especially with those you care for. "All cruel people describe themselves as paragons of frankness." - Tennessee Williams

When you're poor, you are invisible. When you grow up invisible to be seen is the most important thing.

Tell them they are beautiful often and with ernest enthusiasm. Tell them until they understand it is the truth. Tell them until they see in the mirror what you see looking into their eyes. SInisilmainen Prinssini.

Apologize to children when you're wrong. Let them learn it's not a weakness. Don't assume you're smarter because you're older. Say thank you when they do something for you or others. Admit when you've made a mistake and admit it openly to them. Don't let your pride or ego raise or mentor a child.

One of the many things you won't be prepared for as you get older is all the people who aren't there anymore.

Quick history lesson. October 5, 1938 the Nazis in Germany invalidated the passports of Jews in Germany, separating them from the rest of the population. On February 26, 2026 the Nazis in Kansas invalidated the identification (State ID, Driver's License) of transgender people.

Grief is weird. Got hit like a ton of bricks because my prince said he wanted a battle vest, WHAM tears. 13 years since Adam was targeted, a pride patch on his vest. 13 years since he was killed. 13 years since 4 people just watched it happen. 13 years, and I still don't know what will trigger it.

That new Kennedy Grindr add is wild...

"And now here is my secret, a very simple secret: It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye." -TLP

We should stop pretending independent films are made by magic instead of stubbornness, community, and a little mutual faith.

What if the biggest conspiracy is our government’s refusal to believe more than a 1000 women (and children) for many decades?

I’m calling the police.

I am deeply uninterested in being palatable.

"When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in the service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid." - Audre Lorde

I am not interested in sanding the edges off my work so it can be more “marketable.”

Such an unfortunately long list.

We take a look at #Sundance2026 NEXT winner The Incomer www.eyeforfilm.co.uk/review/the-i... - "In some ways, the film feels like the cuter, gentler second cousin of Yorgos Lanthimos’s 2009 masterpiece Dogtooth." #FilmSky🎬

@asininemetal.bsky.social Is the one reason those "You wake up and it's 1986. What do you change?" scenarios have zero appeal for me. I'll take everything that happened to me if it means I still get my prince.

Adapting my screenplay to a 53,757 word novella I have discovered something about myself. I don't write autobiographically. I write personally. There's a difference, and it matters. #nostalgiastories #authorsofinstagram #comingofage

Media literacy is a survival skill. A lot of people opted out.

A little tidbit of news crossed my feed today. I felt that it was both topical, and insightful. As much as I know correlation does not imply causation, I mean it makes all sorts of sense doesn't it?

Fascism survives on the fantasy that it will never be named in the past tense.

The city doesn’t remember me. I remember it. That’s enough. #nyc

Correct me if I'm wrong, but it looks like there’s a lot more millionaires and billionaires in the Epstein files than there are drag queens

"Make visible what, without you, might perhaps never have been seen" - Robert Bresson

Authoritarians always think history ended right before consequences.

The reason authoritarians hate artists is simple: art remembers what power wants forgotten. -Remedios Varo, "My Little General (The Marquis de la Contre-Croupe)" (1959)

Silence in the face of cruelty is still a position.

It truly never ends the behavior of a sore loser in real time. FBI agents executed a search warrant at an election center in Fulton County, Georgia, marking a major escalation in the administration’s campaign against a jurisdiction Trump has obsessively targeted since losing the state in 2020.

'We are shutting it down:' Ubisoft unions call for international strike

For all the fearmongering about capital flight from New York City, there’s an exodus few want to talk about: working people.

Sky-high rents and outrageous child care costs are already pushing families out of the city they keep running.  
That’s what we have to change.

The older I get, the more I understand that love is less a rescue mission and more recognition.
