A massive public outcry is needed on this.
I feel like I have nothing to write. "Genocide is illegal and Trump must be tried for war crimes" feels, somehow, *under*whelming in this moment.
oh my god!!! congratulations, i am so happy for you!!!
Gonna hold on to this croissant metaphor for the rest of my creative life
Sean Penn winning for that role over Delroy is the perfect shorthand for exactly what Hollywood is.
I don't think the Academy and the movie industry at large is prepared for the righteous anger that will emerge if SINNERS is closed out
They will earn every bit of criticism they get
Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
no war no borders no cops no prisons no to all of this shit
I've absolutely tried to sell friends on DS9 as their first Trek, in part because I think that based on what I know of their specific likes, DS9 would be their favorite. Now, no one has taken me up on this yet but I still persist in ever so gently nudging it in their direction.
i’m an ethical hater. i’m hating on u from a nuanced and multifaceted standpoint
Wake up! Michael Shannon will star in a remake of the 1920 horror silent film The Cabinet of Dr. Caligari:
That's definitely a common phrase! I remember hearing it long before I watched Justified.
sisko in ds9 saying "im tired of being calm, calm never got me a damn thing"
Star trek had a lot of hard lines over the years, but this remains the fucking hardest
This or just dumping people *in the woods* AND sending folks out w/o their phone or I.D.
Volunteers w/ Safe Haven wait at the gate & do sweeps of the woods, with warm clothes, a burner, and a ride home, "so no one is left alone at the gate."
I donated; pls join me if you can: gofund.me/7d506a3d0
This was instantly helpful and I have already donated to 3 places via ApplePay while sitting on my couch watching reruns of the Steve Harvey Show. Consider utilizing this if you’re also overwhelmed.
To get out ahead of it, yes SINNERS is that good, we won’t be doing the thing where once a movie we all loved gets a bunch of nominations it becomes overrated populist crap, we simply will not be doing that this time.
DS9 episode guide: S2 E22 "The Wire" - Bashir fights to save his Cardassian friend Garak, who is slowly being killed by a brain implant to which he is addicted S2 E23 "Crossover" - A mishap in the wormhole sends Kira and Bashir into an alternate universe where Bajor is a tyrannical power and humans are slaves.

Do you like SFF? Do you like queer dudes? 15 upcoming books featuring both for your consideration.
There's a way to turn that off thank god - if you go into the music app in settings, you can turn song transitions off and it'll stop doing that. Which like why that's a feature we have to turn off in the first place is beyond me...
My grocery bag ripped as I was walking to my apartment from the store a few years back. I was on a busy street and I was just kneeling there trying to figure out what to do and near tears, and a stranger stopped and gave me a reusable tote bag they had so I could carry my things back.
Nominate Delroy Lindo for everything
Doing a SINNERS rewatch.
I spent ages debating between Boardwalk Empire or Dark and so am going to say both of them, and each remain highly underrated series overall.
I don't know why I haven't made this before now.

I cannot stress the shriek of joy I just let out because Be Her to Love Me at the End of the World was definitely a book I knew I wanted to read with this group but I couldn't remember the title or author and I thought I was going insane trying to find it??? thank you so so so much!!
I'm looking for fiction recs that are about the end of the world/are set after the end but that aren't bombastic action stories. Something in the vein of Station Eleven. Overall, I prefer things to be hopeful to bittersweet over nihilistic. Thank you in advance!!
Following up on this. This remains a ‘cave is minutes or hours away’ situation. If you want to impact how this plays out you need to contact senators literally now. I want to add additional points of context. What I’m relaying is what I’ve picked up from highly reliable sources.
I'd honestly never thought about this before and now I'm sitting here just absolutely horrified??
