Am I about to go back to hair? Or am I being too desperate for work? 🫣

Making the move from #spotify to #Qobuz has been amazing!! I don’t feel like I’m listening to the same five songs over and over. Spotify’s algorithm keeps you in an echo chamber of just listening to the same music.

I’m so excited to be almost finished with my first short story collection zine. 🥹

I might actually keep up with my Duolingo streak now that I’m doing chess lessons.

I finally bought a camera to check on my pets when I’m not home and I’m having so much fun watching them while I’m in the other room.

Taran has been dying to do his Vince impression for someone from #bb27 cast. This deep dive is so fun.

I have to do a TikTok detox again because I’ve been spending too much time on it lately. 😭😭😭

MJ's @chelsalexn.bsky.social shares five favorites from this year's HollyShorts Film Festival.

#HollyShortsFilmFest is now playing until August 17.

over at the other place, I've got a bunch of people griping about Ashley winning without a comps record, and wishing for old school BB in the same sentence..

MOTHER & DAUGHTER ✨ #bb27

Ashley saying “and then I’m gonna be the bb27 winner!

AND DID!!! #bb27

I literally have no plans on going to tiff, but I am manifesting this hard!!! I don’t care how!!!

I desperately need to see the Degrassi documentary that is showing at TIFF✨

I’m literally manifesting this for me.

I’m so sorry

Funemplyment is so fun. I watch BB live feeds, love island and girls on repeat. I also read like four books and caught up on my writing.

RIP J*mmy #bb27

“So full of shit the toilet’s jealous” ok J*mmy, I’ll give you that one.

UNICORNS tries to push boundaries but feels a bit dated — Moviejawn by Chelsea Alexandra, Staff Writer For queer viewers, Unicorns may feel a bit tired and frustrating.

MJ's @chelsalexn.bsky.social was not impressed with UNICORNS, finding it to be a story filled with the same tired tropes.

#UnicornsFilm is in theaters Friday.

Genre Queer: How DEGRASSI cemented its place in queer television history — Moviejawn by Chelsea Alexandra, Staff Writer Few teen dramas have the lasting impact of Degrassi , and even fewer have contributed as meaningfully to queer representation on television.

MJ's @chelsalexn.bsky.social says, "Few teen dramas have the lasting impact of DEGRASSI, and even fewer have contributed as meaningfully to queer representation on television." #Degrassi is now streaming. #nowstreaming #Pride

Cronenberg on Sex and Gender: THE FLY — Moviejawn by Tori Potenza, Staff Writer  At its core, The Fly explores the transformations we go through when we enter a romantic relationship.

MJ's @theneonbanshee.bsky.social returns with the latest installment of her series, Cronenberg on Sex and Gender to say this on THE FLY, "Even with the tragic end, the courage to open and attempt to fuse on a deep emotional level with another, is one of the most beautiful things in humanity."

THE VIRGIN SUICIDES at 25 remains a dreamy memory of girlhood — Moviejawn by Chelsea Alexander, Staff Writer As a teenage girl with a Tumblr, frames from The Virgin Suicides were undeniably unavoidable.

MJ's @chelsalexn.bsky.social says, "THE VIRGIN SUICIDES captures the fragility of memory, the mythologizing of girlhood, and the quiet devastation of repression." Check out the rest of her thoughts #TheVirginSuicides in celebration of the 25th anniversary.

Don't sleep on the Jim Thorpe Independent Film Fest - they have a great line-up of flicks. One of my favorites out of #Tiff is playing... CROCODILE TEARS. Check out @chelsalexn.bsky.social preview for @moviejawn.com. #CrocodileTears #JTIFF25

Ani-May 2025: SAILOR MOON and how it allowed young girls to find community — Moviejawn by Chelsea Alexandra, Staff Writer For 2025’s Ani-May, we’re looking at anime that aired on Toonami and Adult Swim—and what’s more iconic than Sailor Moon ’s impact on girls?

MovieJawn's @chelsalexn.bsky.social kicks off our annual Ani-May celebration with SAILOR MOON. Chelsea says, "SAILOR MOON offered something rare: a vision of female friendship as a sacred force." #animay #sailormoon
