The first trophies of the Criterion sale have been acquired. 4K of course.

If I had to guess, this is less about sidelining "influencers" and more about curbing the recent discourse about casting and historical accuracy to put the focus more on what Nolan wants everyone talking about—the quality of the film itself.

While no woman deserves the harsh scrutiny, I do find it absolutely hilarious how much energy chuds are expending this week trying to convince me objectively attractive woman is unattractive actually. From Jesse Watters to rando El Neckbeard Supremos, these guys just universally fucking suck.

Just did my estrogen shot so I don’t forget over my birthday weekend.

Fucking stoked to see The Frighteners on the big screen tonight!

I have started Hacks, and yes, Ava Daniels is the moment.

I think Widow's Bay might end up being my favorite TV show of this year.

Meanwhile, at the Texas GOP convention

I think the weirdest thing about Elmo being the first trillionaire is just how imaginary the whole thing is. It's a PR stunt so he can be called THE WORLD'S FIRST TRILLIONAIRE™️. His companies don't make that kind of money. They are unlikely to make that money in his lifetime. It's just so...lame.

First shot from The Batman Part II 🦇

I cannot wait for his downfall.

I won't lie, if that dumbass UFC fight gets rained out, that will not only amuse me, but make me so damn aroused.

Hold up, gonna AI generate a credit report to finally own a house! BRB!

Transphobe Nancy Mace coming in 5th in the SC Gubernatorial primary could have only been better and more poetic if she had tied for 5th instead.

I just finished 007 First Light, so buckle in for a thread of my full thoughts on it: 007 First Light is without question now, the best James Bond video game.

007 First Light: First Thoughts Really damn good. This is a great origin story for Bond that feels very fresh and different. Patrick Gibson is really impressing me, as is the mixture of Hitman and Uncharted gameplay.

Finally!

I went from a really big high to the lowest rung of ass in terms of movies today.

Happy Pride to all who celebrate love and acceptance. Much love to all you beautiful dolls out there just trying to get by being yourselves. And much love to those unafraid to love someone the hateful might deem wrong. Everyone else: fix your hearts or die. Fuck hate, choose love. Love wins.

Well, Amazon said First Light would be here Saturday, then they said next Saturday. I had peak gaming time planned! Ah well, I'll continue Hades I guess.

Me, patiently waiting for my 007 First Light pre-order to come in:

How in the fuck is anyone gonna be able to survive that isn't rich or fucking somebody who is rich? Don't gimme the hard work and keep going spiel right now, because that ain't gonna cut it! I am sick of this shit! I am sick of having to beg any job to just let me survive!

Rewatching New Girl means I do this anytime the cats chase after each other and zoom right by me and Lauren.

For those craving one: two slices of a good bread ham grated gruyere cheese (make sandwich) Make a rue (1 tbsp butter, 1 tbsp flour) cook until it smells nutty Add one cup milk. Cook until thickened. Spread on top of bread. Top with grated gruyere. Broil until melty and browned. Top w/ fried egg.

Lesbianmaxxing is me just now applying for a job at U-Haul.

Much love to @crobertcargill.bsky.social, finally peeped Black Phone 2 on Netflix and it’s better than the first. This is such a great example of how a sequel should operate. I loved the development for all the characters and it actually is a chilling movie.

Life

If there wasn't a better time ahead, then I wouldn't be able to keep going.

Trans rights are OUR FUCKING RIGHTS & we have to fight for them whether we think we will ever use them ourselves or not. You don’t have to be family or a friend of a trans person to get it. You just have to be a good person who believes the government has no right to tell us who we’re are or aren’t.

I need to know what “radically pro-transgender” means. If that’s like armed groups abducting kids and giving them unwanted surgeries, sure, go get ‘em boys! But if it means “doesn’t believe the government has the right to tell us how to dress or identify” then this administration are the terrorists.

As choices diminish, the remaining existing shows will have to play to more quadrants. That means shows will become whiter, take fewer risks, avoid controversial topics, and play to whatever is popular now rather than catering to small, devoted fanbases rabid for a certain brand of entertainment.

Saw lots of bad takes on my post yesterday, but the absolute most smooth-brained were saying "Good! There's too much choice on TV as is!" My. Brother. In. Christ. What do you think will happen as those choices fade? Do you think you'll get cool niche, diverse shows? Or more mainstream pablum? Huh?

Fucked doesn't even begin to describe how the job market is today.

Also, this is why the Paramount/Skydance/Warner Bros. Discovery merger is so terrifying to us all. Fewer competitors means fewer movies and shows competing in the market. Less choice, fewer jobs making those choices. It's lose/lose for creatives and audiences both.

So when you read articles or see news pieces on how bad Hollywood is doing, it's not that people are consuming less—it's that Hollywood is making less and narrowing you all into watching the other stuff we're making. The saddest part is this impacts marginalized and young creatives first.

Everyone knows Hollywood is fucked, but most people don't actually know why. The studios used the strikes as cover to cancel a full 1/3rd of TV production across the board. 1/3 of TV cast & crew are out of work. Fully. There just aren't jobs for them. Many are people who made your favorite shows.

You cannot imagine the glee and pride that I have to tell you that me and @sarahwebb.bsky.social have adapted the first book in @brennanleemulligan.bsky.social, @erikaishii.bsky.social, @aabria.bsky.social and Lou Wilson's @worldsbeyondnumber.bsky.social story, THE WIZARD, THE WITCH & THE WILD ONE!

A lot of folks are naming their favorite non-Trek performance of a Trek actor as Patrick Stewart in X-MEN or GREEN ROOM and to that I humbly offer you check him out his insanely great scene stealing role in the incredibly queer and game changing JEFFREY.

I’m told my acceptance speech upset some of the BBC journalists who were in the room. I said what I said and it’s the truth 🤷‍♀️

We always have it our way

Start a new job tomorrow, but have a job interview today because it might be something better.

8766 days. That’s 24 years. 24 years of dealing with my fucking nonsense. The woman is a god damned saint. Much love, Jess. Thanks for 24 badass years of marriage. Here’s to the next 24! Love you with all my heart, baby.

Today is the release day for GALAXY: AS THE WORLD FALLS DOWN. Thank you, @ryehickman.bsky.social and @longtalljodie.com for telling this story with me and making this book so incredibly beautiful. This is a book all about finding your people and I love that I got to make it with my friends.

To all the assholes scalping Dungeon Crawler Carl issues from Free Comic Book Day, I hope you get a flat tire on your car for every month of the rest of your lives. You really suck.

Free Comic Book Day was a success yesterday.

Anne Hathaway, you will ALWAYS be that girl. 💙💛

Not gonna lie, I am still pretty damn pissed about the way this whole saga with the new daycare went, and I have had my confidence dented a little bit. But nevertheless, I will keep my head up and work towards something even close to where that was, or maybe find something better.

Update time: That was a fat load of shit! I called them today to inquire about the freeze, and lucky me was answered by the person who first told me about the freeze. The higher-ups reevaluated all the interviews and new hires and decided that I was no longer what they needed.

It's the end of the month again, which means rent is due, which, because of the economy and times we're in, means many are facing eviction- many on this very site. If you are blessed enough to have the means, consider running a search for RENT HELP and helping a stranger keep a roof over their head.

AGAIN AGAIN premieres at the Seattle Film Festival on the 11th of May! Catch me as Naomi in this scifi time travel romance, written & directed by @miamoore.bsky.social and exec produced by @lillywachowski.bsky.social 🤩🎬🎥
