I write scripts and stories and songs and jokes. I also do regular stuff

they called Obama a communist in 2008 and here we are, 18 years later having learned nothing, still shitting our pants over being called communists stop giving a shit what the right wing freaks are going to say about you and gain some principles to stand by

“The man you know. The story you don’t.” -tagline for a certain upcoming movie based on one of the most well-known stories in the history of the English language

Watching The Matrix in 1999: yes!! Fuck yeah! Fight the power, see the world as it truly is! Watching The Matrix in 2026: oh man what I wouldn’t give to be curled up in that goo right now

let me not only cosign this but also suggest that maybe, maybe no fandom should be expected to feed your need for comfort and joy through all your years. if this hateful crone and all her work were to vanish overnight (one can wish) there would still be thousands of great stories to love.

When you strip down all of the nonsense to the essentials, that's what the situation is. People trying to justify that their love of a fictional wizard from children's books and movies is SO IMPORTANT and POWERFUL that it outweighs actual real life trans people and their ability to live. That's it

media when maga wins an election: we must travel the country and speak to these voters and extend empathy to them and give credence to their bigotry and false beliefs media when the left wins an election: is this the end of the american experiment

I love the Miami Vice movie but I must say it is a veritable 3-ring circus of non-American actors precariously balancing atop various American accents
