Just going to casually have this image from the Lucas Museum projected when my students walk into “Women Filmmakers” class tomorrow and see what happens
Hadas Weiss@hadas.bsky.social · 2d agothe museum sounds great i hope they also build one for women
Repost: Things you should know but didn't know you needed to know before knowing: A nasothek is a collection of the broken noses of statues and busts. Now you know.
I wrote a little essay on substack about how actually, quite a lot of people outside the academy are interested in books and other real things. The main reason to read this piece is that I discuss Frances, she of the bread-and-jam. emily613.substack.com/p/let-us-eat...

Nice campaign by the Norwegian Consumer Council about the declining lifespan of products. Enjoy!
Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time.  I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

Searching through Media History Digital Library for teaching (as one does) and came across this rather groan-inducing tagline for exhibitors keen to promote Ida Lupino's THE HITCH-HIKER. Appears in several trade papers including Motion Picture Daily, April 7, 1953. archive.org/details/moti...
Macklemore can sue Robert Kraft for Tortious Interference for economic harm and I hope he does. Discovery would be fun: "Which other stadium owners did you talk to?" and "We need all related emails, text messages and contracts between you and them and you and Sheeran and Sheeran's team."
Ireland defending Western Civilization as if it existed for real
Macklemore: Palestinian children are people. Robert Kraft *actively getting a handjob from a strip mall prostitute he refuses to tip*: We must ban this hate speech from every stadium in America. Let me call up my friends, the Epstein client list. Ed Sheeran: Good point, sir. Both sides, sir.
Wait. Is this what it feels like to be attracted to an absolutely unobtainable smoke show???

Speaking of chickens... Today is the day that I will debate...an empty podium. Because Mike Rogers is…well…
If you’re still in line to quit Ed Sheeran’s tour, stay in line!
