Keep thinking about how in Weapons Aunt Gladys looks like/is styled like a Warhol painting and Campbell’s soup was what she fed everyone. Warhol’s commentary on the mass reproduction of soup; something deeply cultural, medicinal, nourishing, suddenly condensed, impersonal, branded, corporate.

Elizabeth Taylor in an 80s press conference speaking on the stigma of AIDS “…And it so angered me that I finally thought to myself, Bitch, do something yourself.” from the documentary “Elizabeth Taylor: The Lost Tapes.”

there’s a scene in the new documentary where Elizabeth Taylor is talking about the stigma of AIDS and how she got involved in the movement and it’s fucking everything

Sinners was dope. I especially loved the soundscape flashback. A technique I hadn’t seen/experienced before. All the sound in general was incredible. Great to watch a film where sound emerges as the primary effect.

I’m having a hard time placing an essay with a more journalistic POV with first-person research. Not as memoir-y. Let me know if you know of any places looking for nonfiction like that.

The more sexism I experience the more I want to chop all my hair off. If you see me with a buzz cut you’ll know what happened.
