The Flytrap@theflytrapmedia.com · 14h agoVengeful women are having a moment on streaming television this fall. Flytrap co-founder @freeblackgirl.bsky.social explores the fantasy of fighting back on screen:
I’ve been thinking a lot lately about how Halloween has been stressful for me ever since I was a kid and it’s led to me just not liking the whole thing. I am already afraid most of the time- turning that up to eleven just makes me feel worse. Anyways, it’s nice to be reminded I’m not alone.

Man we have a KILLER @judysquirrels.bsky.social piece about Obsession coming up next month at @theflytrapmedia.com and I'd hate for you to miss it...maybe you should subscribe! 👁🗞️️ www.theflytrapmedia.com/#/portal/sig...
I watched all of "Furious" the week I was house-sitting, an episode or two at a time, needing breaks between but also hungry to continue. I *definitely* relate to this piece by @freeblackgirl.bsky.social (and Nora was by far my favorite character)

I absolutely loved Furious, a sleeper hit streaming on Hulu. I wrote about it becoming my new comfort show for my folks at @theflytrapmedia.com
Furious Women
In the Epstein era, if we can’t get justice, then at least we can get vengeance on the small screen.

NEW VIDEO! You all sent me your favorite political ads of the midterms and I reacted to them live on stream. Here's a supercut of the funniest ones. If you haven't checked out my YouTube channel, this is a really good entry point: youtu.be/GoUahai1D-0

I just started watching Furious based solely on this piece and I am half an hour in and fucking HOOKED. Emmy Rossum, Lola Petticrew, and Quincy Tyler Bernstine are frickin incredible

This episode had Ava getting hit by a Waymo and Deborah telling some AI selling asshole that the trial and error and the struggle of writing jokes is what makes it art and it was like Carolyn Lipka and @joemande.bsky.social wrote that 30 minutes just for me

Moby Dick@mobydickatsea.bsky.social · 3d agoBEING PAID,—what will compare with it?
For @theflytrapmedia.com, I wrote about how alone I feel in October as a person who is not into spooky things or horror movies and how the recent renaissance in horror films has made me wish for more fresh stories in other genres. www.theflytrapmedia.com/isnt-life-sc...
Isn't Life Scary Enough?
Hollywood's horror boom is great for the horror girlies, but what about other genres?
theflytrapmedia.com
Kate hits on something really important here: Hollywood is always looking for the next cash cow and they’re confusing the success of some (great!) horror movies with ‘horror is the next thing’ instead of ‘people actually want interesting and original movies.’ (And I love horror!)

The answer was well-handled and thoughtful... and the whole time, I'm screaming LEAVE HIM in my mind. I hope the asker pays attention to the closing lines. Seriously, dear banana hat lady, you don't want to live like this.

imagine a social media world where adults didn't scold other adults "I don't care what the situation is: Adults don't scold other adults. Not if they want to be in relationships built on mutual respect. Period. End of."

I was muttering "dump him" from the headline alone and was screaming it by the end. Girl, you don't have to live this way! Take your mac and cheese and be free!
