Great obituary; thanks for sharing. She was tremendously influential for me. "Alice Doesn't," "Sexual Indifference and Lesbian Representation," "Film and the Visible," and the intro to the "Queer Theory" special issue have all shaped my thinking.

New: As David Ellison prepares to take control of CNN, legendary CBS News producer Mary Walsh, who is exiting, sent a goodbye note to colleagues.

In the note, Walsh writes, "We’ve been told to aim our reporting at a particular part of the political spectrum. Honestly, I don’t know how to do that."

Now that I’ve achieved this score, do I get an extra life?

wow! in the good old days, they used to make durable media!

I’m So Used to Gay Tragedies That I Almost Missed Romance

This is great: Wesley Morris's assessment of Heated Rivalry, in the context of queer cinema of the last 50 years.

Pandemonium! at the Whole Foods

And reached till you felt my beard, and reached till you held my feet.

My first and still best Rose. AND THEN, March 2020, she was in my audience at The Inheritance. When a character uttered the line about "every revival of Gypsy since Tyne Daly” the audience lost its collective mind. Perhaps the greatest moment of my life.

my university has told me that I may not take the rest of the semester off, so I am hereby raising tariffs by 15%!

Looking forward to the next season of The Crown, but who will play the frowning ghost of Queen Elizabeth II?

Congratulations!

Next step: show them microfiche!

Yesterday morning kids were sent running from their bus stop in panic because ICE showed up. This guy at today’s ICE Out of Lindenwold protest is a must watch 😭. @maddow.bsky.social

It’s made of real puppy skin

Keep calling me stupid; that'll probably work! I'm so close to getting your brilliant idea.

Thanks for patronizing. Totally persuasive!

That’s a big assumption about me; it’s also false. Lots to criticize Democrats for, and now is the time to do it. But to return to my original point: saying “if Candidate X is on the D ticket, I won’t vote for it,” especially from someone with influence, is foolhardy and harmful to Left causes.

ah yes, it is I who am expressing sanctimonious, self-righteous purity!

"yeah, I'm glad I didn't vote for Harris"

I’m sorry to be the bearer of sad news. Wonderful to hear about your experience, truly. Sounds like a great educator and mentor.

Quick question, was the blanket made from the skin of a puppy?
