"I have always been a big fan of Independence Day (I've watched it well over 10 times in my life) and I am not sure why it never sunk in that Vivica Fox's character is a stripper. I was watching it this past weekend and was like wait a minute... I should review this for The Red Light Rules!
"If you're looking for something entertaining, somewhat funny, and very uncomplicated to watch look no further. When I originally put this movie on I did not know what to expect or really any of what the plot was about...”

"Well as we predicted Season 3 of Euphoria did NOT score well in The Red Light Rules. Sam Levinson clearly hates women, sex workers, Black people, and his audience…”
Reclaiming intimacy after birth is a conversation we don’t have enough. So many birthing people are told how to care for their baby—but not how to navigate the shifts in desire, identity, body, and connection that come with it. This workshop is an invitation to change that.

Money avoidance isn’t laziness… it’s a trauma response. 🧵

Well we've got Christopher Abbott being a sick freak again! I knew nothing about Piercing before watching it besides what the little movie preview sentence said ‘a man plans to kill a SWer to satisfy his murderous urges’. Alas, the script was flipped & the movie didn’t go how I thought it would!
