In "Industry," queerness is capital
The gripping HBO drama is gayer than ever, but don't expect its backstabbing characters to make a fuss about it.
"In a show where sex and capital are so intertwined, true intimacy has become the most precious, powerful currency." @colemanjspilde.bsky.social said what he said about the convenient queerness of HBO's "Industry," which ends its 4th season tonight!

Facebook memories is usually the swamp of sadness, but the other day it resurfaced the memory of a night I paused Dateline or whatever to write a poem about Marie Antoinette in notes app.

Went to see Wuthering Heights and during the bit of silence before the credits rolled, all you could hear was the reclining seats of me and the lady sitting next to me slowly being lowered. We laughed.

It will always be embarrassing how hostile Bluesky is to pop culture discourse.
If Twitter was still Twitter, Industry is all we'd be talking about on Mondays and Tuesdays. The live-tweeting would be Succession-level great.

Best show on TV right now and I am frustrated daily that itβs not, like, the talk of the town. Iβm rooting for Calabasas.

"Harold and Maude" taught me to not fear dying
Bud Cort's death is a reminder to live the best you can, while you can.
βWhat βHarold and Maudeβ taught me most is that itβs perfectly OK to be fascinated with death, so long as it helps you to appreciate everything that comes before it, because they go hand in hand, and a life lived fully makes death nothing to fear at all,β @wolfievibes.bsky.social writes.

How the FDA fueled a menopause panic
Decades ago, women were told hormone replacement therapy would kill them. Now, there's a movement to demand justice.
Several months back, I wrote about ADHD and menopause, and among the people who contacted me was @aliciajrose.bsky.social. She told me two alarming things: one, that my brain was eating itself, and two, that women have been lied to about HRT for two decades. Sheβs making a movie/a movement about it

Absolutely outrageous that women are still being gaslit by poorly-trained doctors about perimenopause and its available and safe treatments. www.salon.com/2026/02/11/h...

I truly think that one of the main reasons why I never seriously considered men as an option is that no one had a chance of coming close to my ideal, Harold.
