In Keira Knightley’s defense she needs the money. Her career died on the train tracks with Anna Karenina.

“like Breillat or early Baumbach” means nothing but I still appreciate her name always getting in there lol

Going to need to know who makes the annual Rogers TIFF ads who always name drops Catherine Breillat

So glad you did! And I can’t believe they cut it in the tv edit!

If We Were in a Lesbian Period Piece We’d Be the Luckiest People in the World Thinking about tragic lesbian period pieces is my version of a gratitude journal.

I’ve now written so many essays about Portrait of Lady on Fire I could probably publish a book

It’s funny South Park is relevant again for making an AI-created Trump small penis joke because I’ve been thinking a lot about how the South Parkification of satire has resulted in decades of smug, toothless work. Cannot remember the last great mainstream American work of satire.

If Dr. Strangelove was made today Peter Sellers would also play an anti-nuclear war protestor who was super cringe which if you think about it is almost as bad as starting nuclear war

Forgot to share this here but since getting laid off you can follow me on substack where my first essay was about cancer movies and my second essay was about failing to have sex with cis men 🎉

I just finished reading Fall On Your Knees and feel so full and sad and hopeful. Immediately so important to me.

Me! @ drewburnettgregory

I’m rewatching Johnny Guitar

Someone named The Dancing Kid saying “that’s no name” to someone named Johnny Guitar is so funny

The media industry is in a really tough place 🙁 but as long as Riese and Kayla are still there I know there will be work worth reading. Thank you for reading my work though!

Me watching all my Out 1 friends start to meet around hour five

The memory of your father during your last vacation together has entered the villa!!

Of course sometimes these things can be connected…

Lorde’s album is proof nothing about being newly trans is as mortifying as trying to fill the hole left by your parents with bad sex

Every time I have to make a personality quiz or cover a show like The Ultimatum: Queer Love I feel like I have the energy of Robert Pattinson on his last Twilight press tours

20 Years Later, "Hedwig and the Angry Inch" Is Still Outside The Binary " I’m a woman. I’m trans. I’m non-binary. All those words feel right for me."

Admittedly might be giving it too much credit but I’ve always thought it was more complicated than its surface level icks

I was thinking I don’t want to click on this list because I hate the New York Times when I should’ve been thinking this list isn’t worth clicking on because it’s the New York Times lol

Lorde’s new album sounds like an MRI machine (complimentary) which makes sense given the album art is anyone asking her about this

An ‘Are You the One? Come One, Come All’ person trapped in a ‘The Ultimatum: Queer Love’ world

Proving the extent of my will power that the NYT has put forth my ultimate temptation (a bunch of little movie lists feeding into one big movie list) and I’m refusing to click

Can anyone who knows more than me about campaigns tell me if there’s any downside to responding to the Vote Cuomo texts telling them to fuck off

I thought maybe the book would end with a killing and when that happened so early I was like oh! OH!

This man is exhausted!! Just when he thinks he’s fooled them someone else is knocking at his door. Barely getting any sleep when he could’ve just not killed his crush!

Finally reading The Talented Mr. Ripley and my conclusion is I do not have what it takes to get away with murder nor do I have any interest in trying.

My Drag Race take of the week is Denali in Clueless quick drag really did it for me
