Well, it’s invoicing day, and since they’re really apparently not going to pay me for something I wrote for them two months ago, I guess today is the day to post about how @vulture.com fucks over its film freelancers. Long (sorry) thread, with receipts:
Vulture@vulture.com · 3mo agoThere are 118 feature films, plus galas, talks, podcast recordings, and more at this year’s Tribeca Film Festival. Our guide to the movies and events worth lining up for.
I don’t remember the part where Scrooge started crying and said you’d probably be happy if he killed himself, maybe this really is a new take on the story
I’m sharing this while crying but Rebecca is dying of early onset Alzheimer’s and her last day is Saturday. She’s not a rich woman, and is a single mom, and it would be really cool if we could finish this for her. gofund.me/226c58e98

Our buddy @bjcolangelo.bsky.social needs a little help from her friends (and I'm a bully). BJ needs what is, essentially, a full mouth replacement thanks to cancer radiation. We can't eliminate the dental trauma, but we can help with the life-altering debt. www.gofundme.com/f/bj-needs-a...

our culture has made it permissible to be openly hostile to women. even toward a movie directed by a man catering to them, with an abstracted plot about sexual exploitation and a meathead who calls the hero “tits,” and a murky Snyder nu metal aesthetic
Mike Ryan@mikeryan.bsky.social · last mo.I wrote about the weird reaction to SUPERGIRL failing
I am a VERY newly annointed single mum and the circumstances leading to this newfound status have been really ugly - deeply unpleasant, upsetting and destabilising. If you've ever enjoyed my books, blu-ray work or horror documentaries, now is the time to help a sister out!
Alexandra Heller-Nicholas@horrornonna.com · last mo.My 2026 has been a divorce-shaped Stygian nightmare of housing insecurity, drifting between Airbnbs, couchsurfing + housesitting. But the goddess just blessed me with my own tiny apartment! I need to move/furnish it for myself + kid almost from scratch: a humble call for help if you can to do so!
the 5-minute highlight reel of Tom Cruise's career that WB released as the new Digger trailer is so insane. Iñarritu is about to commit a war crime on movies
I know this is not the biggest concern going these days, but it stresses me out that basically every artist/writer/critic is now expected to create their own tiny empire instead of getting paid by any existing entity to perform a job they've worked to get good at!!!!

do you ever just think about how crazy it is that Demolition Man is the closest to our actual dystopia
i feel like every time i mention kratom to someone they have no idea what it is. my sister started using it after kicking fentanyl. it acts on the same receptors in the brain as opioids. the withdrawals are basically the same. and it's in like every gas station and corner store.
Ken Vogel@kenvogel.bsky.social · 2mo agoSCOOP from @by-cjewett.bsky.social & me: Markwayne Mullin urged the Department of Health and Human Service to remove warnings from the FDA website about the health risks of the gas station drug kratom. Mullin owns equity in a leading kratom company called Botanic Tonics that could have benefited.
