Due to maintenance issues, I now own a new car (and six years of a car payment I did not have the budget for 😭). So if you inevitably see me on the clock app (or anywhere else really) putting out thirst traps to pay it off (along with my growing credit card debt) please understand why 😭😭

What are your movies of this decade so far? 2020 - The Invisible Man 2021 - The Medium 2022 - Barbarian 2023 - Infested 2024 - Longlegs 2025 - Sinners

My interview with Nia DaCosta in the latest issue of @fangoria.bsky.social - so grateful I had a chance to talk with her about this incredibly special film in a series that means so much to me. @philnobilejr.bsky.social always sees me right!! 🫡🫡

How much more of all this are we supposed to take, genuinely?

I can 100% confirm that we did *NOT* base the mask on Jeffrey Epstein. The mask was based on the old concept of 1930s era devil masks used by magicians. Ours was sketched by Tom Savini & sculpted by Jason Baker. At no time did anyone mention Epstein and modern real world abuse was not on our minds.

This is the kind of thing a rich CEO says at the beginning of a science fiction movie to establish for the audience that he is a sociopath and the villain.

Every billionaire in the Epstein files could drop dead tomorrow and the world would not only be fine, it would actually improve. The quality of our media would improve. Our environment. Our food. Our health care. Our technology.

Turns out there’s an economic cost to everyone hating us.

An ICE agent shot and killed Ruben Ray Martinez, a US citizen and San Antonio resident, in March 2025. Then ICE and the Texas Department of Public Safety covered it up. He was 23 years old. I am calling for a full investigation into this shooting, including why there was an 8-month cover up.

Incredible opinion. It holds that the common ICE tactic of jumping out of an unidentified rental vehicle and seizing suspected noncitizens while masked violates the Fourth Amendment because the *manner* of the seizure is incompatible with a free society governed by the rule of law.

Maybe somebody at CNN can explain the difference here because I don’t qwhite understand it 🤔

There's an excellent movie out in theaters now and it's not PSYCHO KILLER. If it's playing near you, highly recommend checking out REDUX REDUX.

In October 2024, the Georgia secretary of state’s office launched an investigation after receiving numerous reports from residents across several counties saying they’d received partially prefilled absentee ballot applications from Musk’s America PAC. trib.al/n6hAZOC

a trans woman i know is being deported back to the USA due to the Home Office messing up paperwork. her wife is desperately trying to raise the funds to prevent this. they have 48 hours before she’s put on a plane and might never be able to return. please, help if you can. they’re both terrified.

Got to explore an interesting aspect of Cronenberg’s work, cult mentality and the many forms it takes.

I wrote about THE WITCH

The Free Press is discovering new levels of Telling On Yourself that scientists previously thought could not exist

maybe i’m wrong but i feel like DEAD SILENCE deserves the SAW: The Musical Parody treatment. not just in the way that it needs to be adapted musically, but primarily in making the two leading male characters kiss.

The New York Times when AOC said “um”: “Stumbles,” “Shaky Moments” The New York Times when Trump didn’t know the names of the presidents of Armenia and Azerbaijan as he talked about them in his office: Peace King Makes Major Announcement

March 27, 1936: Portraits of the Führer are raised on official buildings across Berlin. This one at the Potsdamer Railway Station reads "Freedom - Peace"

Watching other countries actually make their leaders and powerful men face consequences with jealousy.

"excuse me sir, there must be some mistake- i voted to create the camps, not live in the zone of interest" is like every trump voter

red really isn’t my color, i’m more of a pink lover 💕 (and shout out to the trash can floating in the back)

it's so funny to try to legitimize a moronic argument by claiming that it is supported by a growing movement of diverse thinkers and then you list the people who belong to that movement and every single one is stupid and/or racist

Benjamin Ryan openly admits that his reporting on trans issues is animated by personal bias against someone who was mean to him online. Ben is not capable of reporting on this issue objectively, and yet the New York Times and other outlets repeatedly let him do just that.

Fuck Grok

If you don’t read old stuff you’ll never discover that people in the olden days had the same thoughts and feelings and dreams and anxieties you do, sometimes articulated differently, sometimes exactly the same way. You are never truly alone in anything and old writings are a neon sign telling you so

some of you are looksmaxxing when you need to be booksmaxxing

the overseer of project 2025 is telling you out loud that every inch you cede on trans rights is part of the plan to create a white christian fascist state

"iS tHeRe a tEcHnoLoGY tHe leFt Is eXcItEd aBoUt" yeah, renewable energy, mRNA vaccines. Lots of cool stuff like that! Probably not the one whose main promise was cutting payrolls

I think before we start asking victim-blaming shit like why did Mia Goth stay with him in the first place we should look at the way he has treated past girlfriends and use our context clues to understand!

This richest man alive is responsible for the deaths of nearly a million of the poorest people alive. And he's telling us he's just getting started.

Love that AI, a thing we hate and don’t want, steals everything, ruins everything, shittifies everything. Drinks our water, plagiarizes our art, pisses all over our information fidelity, drives kids to suicide, serves the right-wing, and fucks up our devices and services. Good job, techbros!

I think it’s time for Democratic leaders to start saying “if you’re a pilot or ground crew involved in a deportation that was stayed by a judge, you’ll be held criminally liable for human trafficking.” Everyone involved in these flights should have that fear in the back of their minds.

You want that third movie right? Do your part!!!

I don't need Copilot to help me write an email because I possess the skill known as "knowing how to write an email".

FCC Chairman Carr is “thinking”of removing the Equal Time rule exception for TV talk shows (but not right-wing talk radio), so CBS wouldn’t let Stephen Colbert air this interview with Texas senate candidate James Talarico. Let’s Streisand Effect the hell out of it on YT. youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...

Paramount's censorship of this Colbert interview w/ Rep. James Talarico will get more people to watch than if it had aired on TV. 100K views on YouTube in just 2 hours. And counting... youtu.be/oiTJ7Pz_59A?...

Stephen Colbert blasted Brendan Carr after FCC scrutiny led CBS to pull an interview with Texas State Rep James Talarico. Instead, 'The Late Show' posted it to YouTube.

every shot-on-video, made-with-a-camcorder horror movie that's just some teenage friend group fucking around in the woods with some fake blood and a monster mask contains more artistic merit, human joy and creative light than anything AI has ever made or will ever, ever make

FWIW, I just emailed NYT's standards editor to ask about the paper's policy on this. Will update if I get a response.

Deeply ashamed to live in a country where tweeting this isn’t instant career suicide

African Americans, Latino Americans, Native Americans, Asian Americans/Pacific Islander, Italian Americans, &more served in WW2 alone in millions &many died so fuck off all the way back to South Africa w your "Nobody dies to defend a multicultural economic zone" &your "English/Scotts/Irish only" BS!

lol this is gonna burst so fucking hard

For those unaware, a quick primer on perhaps the most dangerous of the oligarchs. Peter Thiel.

ICE using the same ruse that Ted Bundy used to kidnap people should tell you something.

American culture of the 1840’s would have been *very fucking surprised* to see the Irish considered as co-founders. Elon’s an ahistorical dipshit, but its always worth saying some stuff out loud: if you‘re a fellow Irish-American and you aren’t 100% pro-immigrant, you’re a fucking embarassment.

Oh man, I wonder what'll happen when Schrader finds out you can already make films in 2-3 weeks with zero budget and without anyone's permission. And even the worst of them will be more worthwhile than whatever slop Aronofsky and Avary will spew forth.

if you're a republican, this is, like, *the* type of guy you absolutely cannot lose like this
