The joy I experience playing slay the spire 2 is hard carrying my mood rn

Rosetta key to my whole shit is that the Les blank criterion box set came out when I was a freshman in high school and rewired my brain

for ppl who don’t know video games - this is kinda like if Quentin Tarantino did an interview exclusively about how much he loves Nirosta Steel. Abel…my apologies….

I saw your ass at Ding Dong School

Dr Pop Culture USA@drpopcultureusa.bsky.social · 2d ago

In the early 1950s, Ding Dong School had 2.4 million daily viewers and was beating Arthur Godfrey's morning TV program in the ratings. By 1956, Miss Frances had written 25 children's books, made 11 Ding Dong School records and 30 manufacturers sold show-branded products.

‘ONE NIGHT ONLY’ director Will Gluck says they cut out “so much nudity” from the film because he thinks audiences dislike sex on screen. “Whenever people now see nudity or very adult situations in a big theater, they get uncomfortable.” (Source: variety.com/2026/film/fe...)

Cis women who are horny for trans women love to break out an ill fitting culinary adjective. Girlypop you look scrumptious….yum!!

Sometimes I fear my selective talents and hypersexual aurafarming have distracted from the fact that I’m annoying and usually incorrect

there should be a national initiative to teach trans women tact

there are lots of popular things that aren't for me. that's normal. but watching the GTA 6 hype from outside the bubble feels different. what do you mean there's a gameplay reveal exclusive to netflix. why is the tone of every announcement if this game doesn't sell 100 million copies we're all dead

I wrote about TEENAGE SEX AND DEATH AT CAMP MIASMA for Reverse Shot. I think it is an extraordinary film - a dizzying, unabashedly kitschy stoner rom-com. I sung its praises + did a temp check on "Trans Cinema" below: reverseshot.org/reviews/entr...

Teenage Sex and Death at Camp Miasma

How do you make a film that feels like your own, when everything about your form has been tokenized, appropriated, wrongly treated as representative of your entire community? This is the impossible, i...

I was thinking "What's the equivalent to The Smiths for Gen-Z? A slightly older band that is annoying and inconsistent, despite many bangers which sound basically indistinguishable from their bad songs?" then I was like o duh LCD Soundsystem

had a vivid dream that TEENAGE SEX AND DEATH AT CAMP MIASMA was based on a 2021 French novel and the cover looked like this:

Hi folks! I will be attending TIFF 2026 as press. Not sure of my exact dates yet. My primary outlet will be Indiewire, but I would love to cover elsewhere in addition. Publicists/editors, please reach out! dm or email: sambodrojan@gmail.com

getting radicalized by the mixed reception to THE VIVISECTORS. so far I think this book is totally extraordinary haha👍 can't think of the last time I read a new book not by one of my friends that I loved so much so fast

I WANT YOUR SEX is totally abysmal. Wilde seems beamed in from a better, more honest picture

Olivia Wilde is a generational talent and remarkable try-hard who cannot help but imbue anything she’s in with overwhelming sorrow. I sung her praises below: open.substack.com/pub/cchelmet...

THE SAMURAI AND THE PRISONER is totally entrancing btw. The sparse, foley-rich castle is a remarkable feat of vision; I have never seen a jidaigeki with such eerie, languid combat and lively dramaturgy. K. Kurosawa makes such delicate, intricate films seem effortless.

My partner loves decorating the apartment with a new rug, handmade pottery, bespoke lamps, etc. my contribution to the decor is mostly gay porn
