I’m excited to see gay film nerds on here react to the fried chicken scene in Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma
I worry about my top four being pretty cliche, but honestly if you were to ask me for the four films that I most wish I could’ve made, the four films which I hope I can even reach a tenth of the power in my wildest filmmaking dreams, it’d be these four.
Alright I have an sensitive question about intersectionality and possible appropriation and I want to be fully transparent about it. In my upcoming video, I adapt the Merchant of Venice “hath not a Jew eyes?” speech briefly, instead using it to discuss trans people and our dehumanization in bigotry.

Thinking about the night I introduced @mollynoise.bsky.social to Master P via this clip and we laughed so hard we couldn’t breathe.
My greatest fear is really that I’m an untalented hack, a cringeworthy manifestation of adolescent film bro-isms destined for failure and mockery and embarrassment, but I think I’m realizing more and more that I’d rather be an embarrassment than give up completely.
Creating stuff is funny because I constantly have these ideas I adore and feel the need to just express somehow or it'll kill me, and then I sit down and try to start writing and/or filming and/or editing, and then you realize just how much work it'll take to make that happen.
We are living in the age of Megalopolis. In that there are a lot of movies coming out that I’ve seen described as “a Megalopolis”
Michael Corleone after killing dozens in WW2: I did what I had to do, but I just wanna spend time with my girl Michael Corleone after killing a single cop:
Well, I've come across an issue whilst making the new video... What do I do for censorship in regards to nudity when I am showing a cis actor play a trans woman? Specifically when I am commenting on how that undercuts the storyline that she's on estrogen?
I'm proud to report that the next video will be a shorter one than the last two videos of mine... While those were over an hour...this one will be 55 minutes.

Without saying your age what is your favorite movie from the year you turned 18 this is also my favorite movie, so
Reading any drama related to artists who grew up on newgrounds makes me wonder what was in the coding of that site that made everyone lose their minds.
Cool things that happened while I was up in Montreal for Fantasia -finally got to play a D&D session with my friends in person -asked a question at the Camp Miasma Q&A about the themes -friend told Jane Schoenbrun about my TV Glow video bc I was too nervous and shy
The Odyssey’s plot if Odysseus was like 30% less of a dick and didn’t piss off the gods constantly:
After my 10 days in Montreal for Fantasia I feel the need to say that right now Canada’s indie film scene is so deeply exciting that as a young American filmmaker, I am legitimately jealous right now. Like America is lagging behind in nurturing its young artists.
Today is my last day in Montreal for this year’s @fantasiafestival.com. It’s been an amazing and yet draining time, it’s reminded me why I strive to not just make videos…but make films, make art.
Didn’t get to post this before but JUST GOT OUT OF KIYOSHI KUROSAWA’S LATEST, THE SAMURAI AND THE PRISONER AT @fantasiafestival.com!
You know how people say “you never forget how to ride a bike”? Well I’m an innovator. My friend Alex convinced me to ride a Bixi bike back to his appartment with him and I completely lost balance and fell onto a fucking car bc I hadn’t ridden a non stationary bike in 13 years.
When trans folks point out the cowardice of institutions complying with anti-trans bigotry, we're often hit with "but what do you expect them to do?" Well, this. Say "no." Refuse. Defy. Grow a goddamn spine.
In February, USA Rugby banned trans women from all levels of one of the world’s most inclusive sports. What happened next was telling. Across the country, teams refused to comply. The story of the Baltimore Ferals, who are pushing back: www.thebanner.com/sports/rugby...
As if mocking me the sky opened up to the most furious downpour I’ve seen in a bit and my phone charger broke, so now I’m soaked and my phone is dying so…nevermind I guess? God says friendships are cancelled? Do not believe in yourself?
I have been meeting people all week as I’m at Fantasia from Boston and I’ve gotten a lot of great experiences out of my friends forcing me to get out of my comfort zone and talk to film people and even with all that I approach every single one like an awkward scared baby deer.
