I'm here, I'm queer, I like fanfic with a subby Wade Wilson. Cheesevangelist/horror addict/writer/compulsive baker of cakes. They/them https://www.dylan-pierce.com/
We should rate our anxiety on a scale of fictional characters. For example, I’ve been operating at a “Holly Hunter in Broadcast News” level for the last three days
Jennifer Kent kicked off "elevated horror" in 2014 with THE BABADOOK. Her next film flopped, and she never made another. Ana Lily Amirpour made A GIRL WALKS HOME ALONE AT NIGHT; her next film flopped, now she directs TV episodes. *Julia Ducournau* had a movie out last year & I didn't hear about it.
My touchiness in re: Schoenbrun is that, look, they're a rising queer director, they're getting lots of exposure, so there's backlash. Tall poppies get cut. If they were a white cis man, we'd all love them again by the next movie. But we don't live in a world where a next Schoenbrun is guaranteed!
It's submission season. Which means 2-3 months from now it'll be rejection season.
If you never had your whole shit rocked by "I'm Going Home" in a small-town repertory house before the Obama administration, you do in fact need to sit this one out, I'm sorry!
One thing we will NOT be doing today is putting THE ROCKY HORROR PICTURE SHOW on trial as "good" or "bad" queer media, not on my watch.
This is not to minimize the larger problems of our food being dangerous and unregulated, but as a person who puts cilantro and jalapenos in everything, especially when it's still summer food time, I am suffering. Idk what to cook anymore I'm gonna starve
This generation of homeschooled, Chat GPT-raised, unvaccinated children who don’t know how to finish a book or make a phone call…best of luck to us all, folks.
US child vaccination rates have plunged since before the pandemic, with kindergarten classrooms in more than 70% of counties now lacking herd immunity against measles.
People are SUFFERING. We have to stop acting like everything is okay. It’s not okay. The conditions under which we ALL are living are killing us.
Fallout 4. Was so mindnumbingly bored an hour in, gave up, and haven’t tried any other Fallout games so far.
No hate, no dogpiling, just curious. For me, it's Skyrim. Don't know why, considering it should be exactly my kind of game, but it just didn't click for me.
Will people finally leave me alone for hating House now is it allowed
So glad people are finally talking about how weird the premise of that sex purge movie is because I’ve been seeing trailers for it at AMC for MONTHS, feeling like I’m losing my mind, but nobody ever seemed to know what I was ranting about
cooking tip: if you use only half an onion for a recipe, you can put the rest in the fridge and later you'll have a fridge that smells like onion
Every writer I know, and for my sins I know a lot of them, is absolutely 100% delighted for you to get their book out from your local library.
Genuinely don't know how we're supposed to not be in a constant state of heart attack-inducing levels of anxiety when the food and the air and the water will kill us, like how am I supposed to just chill for even a second
this summer's cultural cross over we've all been waiting for jimothy x bayeux
looking at That Movie Logging Site (I've noticed if I name it, weirdos looking for mentions show up), I may be the only one who thought Maddie's Secret was super tonally jumbled which... surprises me
I love when we ask our friends for advice on mundane adult things and vice versa. Maybe it's because I have shit family so my friendships are my family, but something comforting about convos like "you think this food is too expired to eat?" "you ever had an AC make this noise/did you fix it?"
It's a complex area. A lot of what coping used to look like for me involved doing stuff I hated, or stuff that had significant components I hated, & just white knuckling through it, drinking heavily to numb the sirens. I thought I had to & I was pathetic & silly for struggling.
It’s one thing to read it, another to hear it in her incredible voice.

He sits in a floral-fabric covered arm chair, books on a shelf behind him. He gazes affectionately at a puffball black cat whose eyes confess the truth: me! I did it!
#BOTD 23 July 1888: Raymond Chandler, seen here cosying up with his very hard-boiled cat, Taki.
Check on your friends. Whoever was at this gas pump before me pumped $0.34
