Imperator Lexiosa

Our shit ass landlord is fighting us about money regarding habitability for our home and the extended displacement we were under all summer and all I can think about is packing everything and putting it into storage and suing him for everything he’s worth.

Influences on Coogler’s SINNERS (2025), followed by SINNERS (finally with subtitles!), for this Sunday AC laptop afternoon.

Big memorial party for a long time beautiful friend, partner went to a job site two hours away, house has a water leak, had to migrate to a friend’s home with the dog and no timeline to return home - it’s been a long long week and I am so spent.

In the last two hours I’ve caught the skin of my index finger inside the lid of my pressure canner, and stabbed myself in the side of my thumb with a screwdriver while trying to repair my laundry drying rack. Why must my injuries be so annoying and also hand-based today?

I do this with gochujang and it’s great.

This week on Live Like the World is Dying, @jamesstout.bsky.social and Miriam talk about how to stay safe with danger all around. They talk health and safety basics for protests like security culture, protective gear, first-aid kits, and dangers like projectiles, tear gas, and pepper spray.(1/2)

I had many minor celebrity encounters when I lived in NYC, but my favorite was from long before - when I was in 4th grade I had a raging case of poison oak on my face and made my acting debut as Helena in A Midsummer Night’s Dream. The uncle of a classmate, Kevin Kline, was the MC for the show.

Still doing the mutual aid thing, but every once in a while we all need a little break, as a treat. Thanks for being in the streets.

Put the Shiny Box of Doomscrolling down for a whole afternoon and read @margaret.bsky.social’s brilliant Escape From Incel Island in one go while sipping a Dole Whip next to a hotel pool while basking in a bit of sun. It was nice. Wish The Horrors had decided to take a break too! But no. Just more.

yep! unpaywalled:

You get it.

AI yassified Crisp Rat is haunting, truly.

Jack Donaghy would insist on very high production values, still tracks.

“You see Lemon, I’m going to wipe blood from the side of my mouth and then the magic dagger with the creepy face will wipe blood from the side of its mouth, and the audience will know that I’m worthy of psychically controlling it. It’s ✨cinema✨. “

Letterboxd review from lexstatic about The Shadow 1994 reading: From the moment I laid eyes on Alec Baldwin, I decided that this movie was the made for TV movie that Jack Donaghy from 30 Rock commissioned as a vehicle for himself to star in and the subsequent 90 minutes did nothing to prove me wrong.

Watched THE SHADOW (1994) for the first time yesterday.

It’s Miller. He needs some orders.

Can I choose to peg one, Y/N?

A small tawny terrier having his chin scritched. His right eye is winking. He’s on a grey comforter and looking very dapper.

Good news! My ding dong dog has pink eye and not a foxtail. Giving him lots of freeze dried beef liver despite him attempting to bite literally everyone including me at his vet appointment (he had a muzzle and we are all unscathed). What a jerk. Enjoy your eye drops my bro!

Already kind of on the verge of meltdown before all this started and really really don’t want to have the stress of dog surgery on top of that! Thanks buds.

A tawny colored terrier dog with an open-mouthed smile standing on a messy grey comforter, standing in front of a shelf stuffed with colorful bins and clothing.

Hey I know the world is on fire and everything sucks but if you have a spare thought for my little goober this afternoon, I’d appreciate it. Something is going on with his eye and I’m hoping it’s not a foxtail, heading to the vet soon to check it out.

"Political Correctness" - You're Wrong About Mike tells Sarah how liberal magazines turned a "kids these days" moral panic into a national crisis. Digressions include Law & Order, Dave Foley and swimming pool etiquette. This episode contains...

Also Mike’s previous podcast @yourewrongabout.bsky.social did a campus speech deep dive a few years back. yourewrongabout.buzzsprout.com/1112270/epis...

The world is on fire and we keep losing friends (so many friends) so a bachelor/ette weekend in a fancy house in the palm desert is the balm my soul needs before we dive back into the hard work. Loving hard, relaxing harder, and then home to roll up our sleeves.

Hell yeah. I think I’m gonna try for those certs and a stop the bleed course by the end of the year, thanks for reminding me that we’re almost halfway through 2025 and I gotta get on that!

I’m trying to get to Seattle at the end of the month. I live in Nevada. I don’t have a valid passport (thanks ADHD!) and I don’t have a Real ID (thanks principles!). I’ve heard that “extra screening” will be required for people who don’t have one of those. Welp! Guess it’s ride share? I hate this.

Hot dogs are very Cowboy Carter coded, you’re dressing fully on theme for the Beyoncé rodeo.
