Turner Classic Movies is airing an 11-film exploration of trans identities in movies hosted by the authors of Corpses, Fools, & Monsters (great recent history of the topic) starting tomorrow at 8

If you can EVEN believe it, I've finished all twelve illustrations for the Lynch calendar! As usual I started losing my mind a little at the end so Inland Empire turned out unexpectedly wacky. I'll be placing the print order soon, please order now if you def want one! www.etsy.com/listing/4366...

This is what I mean when I say that present-day covid denialism is right wing. It was a plan born of corporatists and wholly adopted by centrists and even leftists eager to pretend the pandemic was over, which should immediately give anyone thinking about it pause.

Toronto friends! The film is still TBD but please put Nov 25 on your calendar for the next Masked at the Movies! 🥰

Hey, if you’re attending #TIFF50 next week, please consider wearing a high quality mask (like a KN95). I don’t want to get sick and I don’t want you to get sick! Let’s keep each other safe from airborne illness this year. Cool? COOL! I promise you no one will care. Always happy to give mask recs! 😷

I wasn’t going to say anything else beyond my original reply about the event last night but conflating this with what’s happening in Palestine is so out of pocket. Unbelievable.

The person was an employee at the venue. I’m sorry they said that to you. Ultimately, it’s only respirator-mandatory for attendees as it’s a public space - and all attendees were in respirators the entire time. Going forward, I will be clear that folks may encounter unmasked ppl/surgicals inside.

Toronto friends, Masked at the Movies presents CHICAGO is tomorrow (June 29!) at Innis Town Hall ✨ Doors open at 6, film starts around 6:45. There will be vendors with mask chains and art! FREE to attend! Register below 🫡 www.eventbrite.ca/e/1391840906...

It is consistently wild to see this rash of pieces on Covid that are all about its origin and its politics, by people continuing to steadfastly ignore that it’s still here, it’s still killing people, there’s a rising mass of disabled people from it, and that all of that is preventable.

We're screening not one, but TWO '90s queer cinema classics at Toronto's Revue Cinema this June 💅🏻🏳️‍🌈📽️ Join us for INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE (screenplay by Anne Rice) June 8 and TO WONG FOO, THANKS FOR EVERYTHING! JULIE NEWMAR (dir. Beeban Kidron) June 12. Both screenings are over 60% sold out!

Writing on the back of this photo from my collection says “General Nuisance. Summer 1954”.

being covid-aware and keeping myself safe has me so worn down y’all like I feel like I’m moving through cement to do literally anything 😭 it’s so tempting to just give up (I won’t) but holy hell this gets harder by the day! sending resolve and strength to everyone 💕

I wrote about Reid Davenport’s funny and infuriating disability and assisted dying doc, LIFE AFTER, for @flmfrkcentral.bsky.social filmfreakcentral.net/2025/05/life...

Good movie alert: Back at TIFF, I wrote about David Cronenberg’s THE SHROUDS, now playing in an urban crypt near you, for @flmfrkcentral.bsky.social filmfreakcentral.net/2024/09/tiff...

There’s a cardinal on my street that yaps all day every day and its evil pew-pewing sounds are slowly driving me into madness

Gonna be vulnerable on main and say as an anxiously attached person, losing so many friends because they stopped caring about COVID has been some very fucked up exposure therapy 🫥

If you're new - my name is Niko. I once came second in a Chicken McNugget eating competition, and I wrote a book called The Dad Rock That Made Me a Woman. It comes out on May 6. You can pre-order it anywhere you buy books. Okay, love you, bye. utpress.utexas.edu/978147733148...

how it feels being covid safe/aware in 2025 with bird flu looming

once again remembering I have free will and can make myself pancakes

career highlight to talk to susan!!

Disabled people are NOT listened to by the government. We are treated as expendable & our opinions not considered. If we had been consulted on pandemic policy I guarantee we would be in a better place” It’s time to start listening to the disability community. We can help with the resistance:

If you’re looking for Horror movies with Black characters in it here’s a list boxd.it/sSHLq

Against my better judgment, I started a newsletter. Hopefully it will help us all feel less alone. The first one is just an intro but stay tuned! Read/subscribe/share: danitasteinberg.substack.com/p/the-unbear...

One of the easiest, most visible ways to resist is to mask Safeguarding your health is more important than ever. It’s easier to fight back when you’re not chronically ill It shows you care about disabled & marginalized individuals It tells government you won’t be complicit in the harm of others

once again thinking about the BEACHES watch from SPY

No Pamela Anderson nom?

First they stopped testing, because if we don’t test then it’s not a problem Then they stopped reporting, because if there aren’t hospitalizations & deaths then it must be over! That pesky wastewater data was always there though…. Telling people the truth. So let’s fix the way we do that too! /s
