When we're done with this bullshit, I need someone to underline and circle in red all the parts of the Constitution that guarantee that I don't have to listen to this or incorporate it into my worldview. This is not a Christian nation, and I'm getting increasingly testy about that particular lie.

When Mae and Caitlyn asked me to join the pod I thought no movie was more perfect as my first official episode as a co-host than a classic Don't Trust Your Husband: Gaslight

I have watched The Night Porter maybe a dozen times and wrote about it extensively in college, to get to chat about it on Pleasers & Punishers was amazing, even with it being such a tough watch

At my husband's high school, in the 90s, a group of teens made a video of themselves going through all of the schools hidden corridors and bomb shelter and they come across a random guy allegedly counting lightbulbs. It plays like the best found footage movie I've ever seen

With all the reviews of "Wuthering Heights" coming out, let's just take a moment to be thankful that Emerald Fennell did not decide to adapt Gaywyck for the screen.

We really need to have a reckoning with the 90s plot line of teenage girl as dangerous seductress and the adult man is just a poor sap caught in her web

It's definitely gonna be wild, and I've seen this movie probably a dozen times and even I'm not sure I was fully prepared for it again. Not a dig on it, but last time I watched this was 2012 or 2013 so

And yes, words can just be platitudes, but it's important to remember that we are not alone, and even if we feel helpless, I know I do, there are so many more of us than there are of them.

If one realizes that one is not alone, that there are billions of people in dark little boxes being prodded by some outside force with the same historical dialectic, then one can begin to consider how to cut out that prodding. One can act instead of reacting."

Finally you either accept it, striking out at each separate provocation, never knowing what you are fighting, only that you are fighting it alone... Potency lies in consciousness—and this is where rebellion becomes revolution.

And I keep returning to a portion of a letter that a student who ended up on the FBI's Most Wanted list wrote to her father, and how it sums up so well a lot of what I, and I know many others, are feeling. So I wanted to share that excerpt here because I think it's important:

As a class, we turned the story of that time period on our school's campus into a play. In light of everything that's been going on in our country, I keep coming back to that play. It's really hard right now to not feel like everything is hopeless, that we are tiny cogs in a massive evil empire 2/?
