should old acquaintance be forgor

in my experience cannibalism is mostly about lesbian sex

i keep seeing this argument and i understand where it's coming from at a glance, but only if you deliberately ignore centuries (millenniums even) of cannibalism texts about the concept of consumption and its relationship to colonialism, hatred, and disordered eating. Cannibalism is an old fixation.

thinking about this again

i've been thinking it over and here is my Muppets Odyssey fancast

only real foodies know this one

me finding out the shooting star from Jaws wasn't real

in fact the only Odyssey adaptation i want to see is one by The Muppets

my new friend is very beautiful

as a nolan hater and an odyssey lover the trailer is.... about exactly what i expected 💀

might have to get into boxing if it regularly involves watching far right grifters who built careers off of misogyny embarrass themselves spectacularly

What's the Odyssey About? [wrong answers only]

I'm feeling like George Bailey over here, thank you 😭 overwhelmed by the outpouring of support during this tough time. Thank you for the furniture, the donations - it's beyond what i could have imagined. I am picking myself back up, dusting myself off, and fighting. We will be ok 🩵

As told by the late dancer and choreographer Agnes DeMille.

Starting from zero is hard enough when you immigrate, but it's much worse when you've had the rug pulled out from under you like Lola has. If you've got the funds, I imagine this would mean a lot.

i try to never do things like this but we were displaced very suddenly this week. it's a hard financial hit. our new apartment is unfurnished. my friend suggested i make a Throne wish list so i don't have to finish editing this video on the floor. anything helps, thank you 🩵 throne.com/lolasebastian

Bingo needs to be louder, angrier, and have access to a time machine.

It is a very difficult time for trans people in this country. It is a very difficult time for people in this country. It is a very difficult time for people. It is a very difficult time. It is. 💔

I'm in this 👈👈😎

this will not stand.

we've reached a point in online discourse where users w low to no media literacy have started turning that same argument on experts who know what they're talking about. it's straight men learning mental health language to pardon themselves for cheating all over again lol

please don't confront me with Frog Playing Banjo in Moonlight i had not forgotten Him

"Mark Laita of The Soft White Underbelly rose to fame for his iconic Black & White thumbnails that led to videos where he showcased the lives of marginalized people that society shuns away but that very photographer that exposed the the darkside of society, became the darkness himself."

At 11:00, I'm gonna stream Mermaid Mission: Titanic in an effort to collect late pledges for my upcoming podcast series, "After Titanic"! youtube.com/live/O6dnMaE...

“Directed by men.” Okay now I’m thinking of a Gaston movie directed by Mary Harron, American Psycho’s director. They’ll never do it but… if’s fun to think about.

I have a feeling we're going to find out the reason he hates books is because his father died in a horrible library accident.

yes i love Beauty & the Beast, no i do not find Gaston "iconic" or "compelling," what are we doing here trying to present hegemonic masculinity as alternative lmao

not exactly surprised that Disney is doing a Gaston movie at this time in history, lol. "What if that violent, charismatic misogynist who hates reading had something to him?" is not exactly an exciting question right now. Especially written & directed by men.

since we are sharing our letterboxd stats i watched 176 films this year. maybe next year i'll try for 365 :) or maybe i'll spend more time doing things IRL... other than go to the movies

Honestly, you try and finish a book in peace

the first 11 minutes of my upcoming video about the strange melancholy of reactionary "anti woke" projects is now available to patrons. in particular, it reflects on Chip Chilla, the MAGA Bluey copycat that loves "timelessness" but is already aging poorly. hooray !! www.patreon.com/posts/previe...

This is going to be so much fun/horrible

Lola is so back. WE are so back

Lola got me to watch the Frankenstein episode of Chip Chilla with her for this. There will be many thoughts.

More people need to hear Katie Johnson's testimony about who Donald Trump really is. They also need to know that the case was only dropped because she received death threats back in 2016 when she came forward with the truth. HEAVY CW for CSA and trafficking: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qk38...

I hate the online reaction cycle that praises a piece of art a lot and uses it as an example of what’s good about the medium but then the moment it gets awards or enough acclaim or fandom, suddenly we have to talk about how it’s actually not really that good and it’s overrated and always sucked

Thanks to everyone responding to our new video on Borders, and helping to spread the word about Ophelia and Zahra. Yes, American Asylum seekers are amongst us, and they need our awareness and help. Here's the KoFi fundraiser we set up. ko-fi.com/zahraandophe...

making history by welcoming Kaz Rowe to Nebula

This post by the world’s richest and most divorced man on the site he bought to promote his far right extremism is ripped straight from the Klan messaging of the 1870s or the 1915 film Birth of a Nation that inspired the Klan’s rebirth as a PR stunt/Ponzi scheme/terrorist organization in the 1920s.

Borders A video essay by The Leftist Cooks

I 100% agree with the sentiment of "some art is meant to make you uncomfortable, the fact that you feel discomfort is not a strike against a movie." But also when people take it to "you probably enjoy animated films intended for families" as an insult, you've lost me. It's all art, dude.

the fact that i don't own a hat that's shaped like bunny ears, a bunny hat if you will, sickens me to my core

Editing a readers theater segment for the upcoming video and wow I am so blessed to have so many cool colleagues who will do absurd bullshit like send me .wav's of themselves making "panicked noises" with barely any further instruction

My favourite film? oh, the nat geo clip where the arctic fox reunites with his lifelong mate after a long winter of course

wow oh wow is this ever a good time to be making a video in large part about the Tarantino film i strongly dislike

I dunno man the concept of actually owning something you pay for must be like a drug if you're under 30

my wife said i have a "diane nguyen taste in podcasts" and i'm never recovering from that sorry
