Gelatinous cube eats village. I think it's terrific.

Hey everybody, this charity auction I'm running right now benefits several great nonprofits, including Trans Lifeline and a trans legal aid group. Give it a look and please spread the word about it. Thank you! www.ebay.com/usr/moryanwa...

I've been covering this industry since dinosaurs & DVRS roamed the earth. It's the worst time I've ever seen in terms of lack of work. And you know what the vast majority are still NOT doing? Working w transphobic bigots. It's surprisingly easy to say NO to that. Don't let anyone tell you otherwise.

As someone who has endured waves of bullshit from privileged, enabling people convinced they are "one of the good ones," the loud screeching you hear from people working w/ notorious bigots = "you're hurting my feelings." Too bad. Fuck around, find out. Your feelings are not my concern at this time.

David Tennant, who has played the lead in Doctor Who among many other projects, wears a T shirt (n the colors of the trans flag) that says You Will Have to Go Through Me and holds an LGBTQIA flag. In other words, David Tennant rules.

I'm regularly disappointed by people whose work I've admired in the past linking up with unrepentant abusers & bigots. Happens a lot. Doesn't mean we just accept it.

What we *can* do is not give ground on transphobic bigotry. This guy seems to get a lot of work and also he is not down with that:

Anyone working on such a project who justifies doing so has been prepped by the most highly paid PR around. Don't fall for it.

I don't care in the slightest about the plausible-sounding b.s. these folks & their handlers come up with. It's bullshit. Transphobic bigots & their enablers can fuck off.

Just clarifying, though this is not difficult to grasp: Anyone working on an industry project with a notorious transphobic bigot is OK with transphobic bigotry.

The end.

Nice to see FFC's masterpiece up there with the canon entries.

Warren Beatty has the chance to do the funniest thing ever tomorrow morning…

None of this is good.

I watched it for the first time this year and the ending was maybe the most unnerving thing I have ever experienced?

I want to write a crossword puzzle where a clue is "James Bond Jaws actor" and the answer can be either "R KIEL" or "R SHAW".

AITA? A girl asked me to spin a bunch of straw into gold to HELP her not get beheaded and all I asked for in return was her firstborn child and when I tried to collect suddenly she was all like "no" and found a loophole.

And just to put it on the record, I don't find it difficult at all to condemn the occupation and revanchist Zionist ideology as well as the mass murder of civilians. Not sure why anyone else has a hard time with it, but that's the world for you.

I've had a lot of thoughts about the events in Israel and Palestine over the last few days, and tried to boil some of them down here: theracket.news/p/the-iron-w...

Somewhat a propos, I thought a lot about the similarities between "Barbie" and "Under the Skin" on my recent rewatch of the latter. Someone smarter than me (like Willow) could probably speak more about that?

John Carpenter said Barbie is about vaginoplasty. John Carpenter said Barbie is about learning real world female socialization and reacting to it. John Carpenter said Barbie is Trans Femme.

I like sexOlogisch with Magdalena Heinzl, very refreshing and positive sex and relationship talk. (She's Austrian, though, so there's some dialect.)

The creator of the ‘Oh No’ webcomic needs help in raising funds so he can continue his legal battle against a shady as fuck board game company trying to claim ownership of all his artwork. Don’t know how these assholes sleep at night. Plz contribute to this if you can, & re-skeet

David Fincher has entered the Top Ten on my directors spreadsheet, with a score of 8.2/10.

Re-watched David Fincher's "Panic Room" (2002) for @blankcheck.bsky.social. It was the first Fincher I saw theatrically, at a sneak preview on May 10, 2002. I think it bombed with the audience but I liked it then and I still love it now.

I feel like once every nine years is a good re-watch policy for this one. Gripping from the get go, THAT scene even more devastating than I remembered. Pair it with "Edge of Tomorrow" as a showcase on how to use a Movie Star™.

I re-watched "Under the Skin" (Jonathan Glazer, 2014). 5☆
