Decision Desk has called the NYC mayors race for Zohran Mamdani.
They are destroying what SHE built. #TeenVogue
Citizen.Coping@propcazhpm.bsky.social · 2y agoElaine Welteroth, former editor-in-chief of Teen Vogue and youngest editor of Condé Nast ever, and the 2nd African American to hold this position, changed Teen Vogue to be more politically conscious. Traffic to TeenVogue.com: 2.7M to 9.2M visitors a year, print subscriptions jumped 535%
today’s information came out piecemeal, and people should be able to share their own situations on their own time, but I could share this much ^ as it is pretty cut and dry on the facts. Teen Vogue also no longer has any trans staffers as of today.
thank you for all the support; the statement from our union is now live here with some more reporting. now that this is public I can confirm that the majority of today’s layoffs were women of color. there are no longer any Black women working at Teen Vogue.
As Condé Nast Folds Teen Vogue Into Vogue’s Website, NewsGuild Condemns the Plan
The union, which reps staffers, says the move was "clearly designed" to blunt the journalism of the brand, which has leaned in to progressive politics.

Lex McMenamin (they/them)@lexmcmenamin.com · 11mo agoI was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day. certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.
They’re counting on you to sit this one out. Don’t give them what they want. Get loud with your ballot. Drop it off today or hit the polls tomorrow ASAP. #CAVoteYesProp50
Matthew Lillard from the "Scream" screening at Hollywood Forever: “Fuck ICE! In this time, in this city, we need to lead with love. Do not forget that shit in this moment. Not to be political, but to be political as shit. Second of all: vote Prop 50. And if you don’t like that, I’m so not sorry!”
I don't know what will happen in NYC tonight, but I do know that regardless of outcome, any number of public figures, celebrities, politicians and institutions that oppose Mamdani have done so with a level of rhetorical ugliness, racism, and dishonesty that should neither be forgotten nor forgiven.
BEST SURPRISE EVER! The surprise appearance I realized I needed (their name doesn’t appear in the episode description). My day was made when I heard Megan Kearns’ laughter popping in. A Megan-Jason episode?!?! Unmatched.

Women InSession: Marilyn Monroe | InSession Film
This week on Women InSession, we discuss the great Marilyn Monroe her underrated dramatic, demonstrating that she was much more than her iconic comedic work!

Alexandra Heller-Nicholas@horrornonna.com · 11mo agoDon't Bother to Knock is a film noir that stars Marilyn Monroe as a character straight from a horror movie. She is simply superb in it, and every horror fan should know this film just for her performance.
The Slashers are back!!! Ready for Halloween, Jason (@bingemovies.bsky.social), Paul (@countdownpod.bsky.social), and I reunited to talk about even more horror movies: slashers in the second half of the 1980s. Listen to Season 2, Episode 1 on 1985 now: podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...
1985 might be one of the weirdest years in horror, half trying to cash in on the early-’80s boom, half inventing MTV horror. What’s your pick from this lineup? Murderlust The Mutilator The Hills Have Eyes II The Ripper Blood Tracks

They could not have expected, nor would they have wished, to witness as much madness as they did that season. The years were 1985 to 1989. This is SLASHERS.

One of the best books of film history and criticism I’ve read in a while, not even mentioning its uniquely keen insight into trans cinema. 90% of the films I watched for Pride Month came from this read. Cannot recommend it enough.
