Badly Licked Bear

DAMN

He's doing a great job of foreshadowing his own end.

💀💀💀

"Canceled?" Don't you mean ALLEGED SERIAL RAPIST MAX LANDIS?

The Post-Patriot Act Era has been living hell and everyone knows it. The death of empire is never fast, never pretty, and never kind to everyday people.

Who the fuck keeps voting for this absolute joke of a leader?

Do your fuckign job, Chuck, or get the fuck out of the way.

I am too old for this shit.

Christ, this is bleak.

The focus on consent parallels a trend I saw in some of my Queer, Gen Z students, when I was teaching film theory, where they would construct narratives where the audience would be assured that no character had ever experienced actual harm, stories with resolution, but no real conflict.

I don't get into the conversation about consent and negotiation in Pillion in this piece, but, like with Heated Rivalry, I'm very interested the emergence on a focus on "consent porn," and whether consent is implied, unmentioned, implicit, or explicit in softcore narratives.

Pillion, Divided In which I cannot envision myself reading Min Kamp (My Struggle) while my submissive begs for attention.

Everyone seems mildly concerned that movie about a gear fetish biker in a 24/7 D/s relationship with a naive twink doesn't have a comprehensive consent negotiation.

Meanwhile, as a BIPOC in wearing her domme hat, I have things to say about race in Pillion.

We're a pair of precious angels.

"Friends" is a beloved American sitcom that aired from 1994 to 2004, following six young adults—Rachel, Ross, Monica, Chandler, Joey, and Phoebe—living in New York City. The show explores their friendships, romances, careers, and personal growth over ten seasons.

BRING IT BACK!

Death

War

Pestilence

Famine

These shirts don't choose themselves.

I want to know what the other questions she asked, that he believes are less significant?

When I read a story about someone who identifies as a "screenwriter," and who only has three minor IMDB credits, and lives in a cozy, beachside community, what I first want to know is: "Who is paying for their lifestyle? What do they actually do?"

This is the language that fascists and bigots use to describe us and to justify the denial of our existence and our civil rights.

As a person who is transsexual, Indigenous, and Jewish, I cannot imagine using that language to describe myself or any other person.

I am not, and just like transgender identity and gender diversity isn't a mental health condition or disorder, the notion that mental health is anything other than health and that there's anything inherently wrong about having a mental health diagnosis is also repulsive.

Tom Noonan as Francis Dollarhyde in Manhunter, wearing a stocking mask, shirtless, covered in tattoos, transformed.

He had a sensual presence that leant itself to cruelty.

Tom Noonan echoed of the Downtown LA actors and poets I crawled around with as a wayward teen in the 1990s, someone you'd know from that one movie, but was much more.

He's not here, now, but here he is being incredibly present, in the short film "They're Made Out Of Meat."

Rest easy, big man.

Mmmmm....

True, but in the wasteland, shared vibes will keep you alive.

It all depends on whether you can find a matching gang.

Soooo, has everybody figured out what their street gang's theming is going to be after The Event?

I can't speak for the UK, but American institutions did a terrible job during the Pandemic, and absolutely underserved students, mostly by not providing teachers the training and resources to serve them as we moved online. And they deserve to be raked over the coals for it.
