Life of Chuck??

Springsteen!?

Anyway, Joseph Kosinski has now directed more Best Picture nominees than David Lynch did, and that’s why the Oscars, as much as they delight and entertain us nerds every year, should never be taken to heart.

A lesson we never actually learn from

I am once again asking.

My god. You’ve truly assimilated if you’ve identified the Tewksbury accent.

Hamnet is a superb film that shouldn't need defending, but apparently it does, so I'll just say that I can't count the number of Oscar seasons in which a movie labeled as "soft" or "manipulative" is attacked bc it putatively threatens the chances of a NOT-soft film that is at least as manipulative.

If trans kids can’t get hormone blockers, their bodies change permanently in ways that are profoundly disturbing to them. It isn’t a “they can decide when they’re grownups” situation. The blockers are what ALLOW them to decide later. Keeping blockers from trans kids is a cruel torture.

Matthew McConaughey says he wants a private LLM, fed only with his books, notes, journals, and aspirations, so he can ask it questions and get answers based solely on that information, without any outside influence.

this exists it is called thinking

First Cole Escola beats George Clooney for a Tony. Now Jeff Hiller beats Harrison Ford for an Emmy. A chaotic gay moon is rising!

Einbinder on saying 'free Palestine' during her Emmys speech:

"It is my obligation as a Jewish person to distinguish Jews from the state of Israel. Our religion and our culture is such an important and long-standing institution that is really separate to this sort of ethnonationalist state."

I quite frankly don't know how to speak to people who call themselves Democrats + who've worked their entire lives in the Arts + yet continue to muck about with AI thinking it doesn't make them look like unethical pigs (and I just realized you can put Twitter into that sentence where AI is and same)

So Blue Sky is turning out to have a policy of silencing transgender posts and transgender accounts.

So - for the record: J.K. Rowling is a hate filled monster. TERFS are not feminists, and the "LGBT needs to drop the T" people are traitors to the struggle for human rights.

RFK Jr. backs down all the time when he gets push back, so if anyone wants to call, here's the HHS number 1-877-696-6775.
I'd also call your senators/reps as well.

Excuse me?!

"[U]nlike ... Andrew Cuomo—the serially accused sexual predator and current legal counsel to war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu—Mamdani wasn't backed by billionaires or towering figures of the Democratic establishment like former President Bill Clinton (also a serially accused sexual predator)."

Good morning, America. We have concentration camps in our country. If that is not freaking you out, you're not paying attention.

I laughed so hard I dropped my phone into the abyss under the ottoman

Do not ever do this under any circumstances. You will be held to the actual contract, not the AI summary, and the AI summary has no way of knowing which terms you might personally care about or have questions about. Dooooo notttttt dooooo thissssss.

Already second guessing myself!

What a loss. Several of White's books are among my favorites. I'll never forget the experience of reading The Beautiful Room is Empty for the first time. An absolute legend.

Going into June, just a reminder...

Kink belongs at pride.
Trans folks belong at pride.
Ace and aro folks belong at pride.
Bisexuals belong at pride.

TERFS and drop the T queers can fuck off.

A flier to support Fenway Health workers, using the link: https://seiumass.salsalabs.org/faircontractforfenway/index.html

Boston/New England peeps:

Fenway Health workers are making some demands for better pay, stable insurance costs, and better staff retention! I've been a patient there for ~15 and this place deserves better than what they're getting.

Thank you!!

Of course! How could I forget. Thank you!!

I share a birthday with Barbra Streisand and Kelly Clarkson and that’s still not the gayest thing about me

Kelly Rowland heals all wounds

I’d go to war for this man

like maybe stop trying to predict why other people feel or think the way they do and just ask questions instead?
