Fundraising for my play again. I will be eternally grateful to anyone who donates anything they can. gofund.me/2e99922e2

Feel like watching ROME, OPEN CITY about now.

Oscars prediction: PTA wins best director; Sinners wins best picture. Both films win for their screenplays.

No congress, no constitution, and a king. What a way to celebrate 250 years.

All correct takes.

I wrote a play, and it's getting produced! I will need help covering expenses though. It would mean so much to me if you could chip in a couple dollars to make this possible. www.gofundme.com/f/help-produ...

Learning this more and more.

As more family members and former friends reject me, because addressing me as Evalyn and acknowledging I'm queer goes against their moral beliefs, yet at the same time can rationalize supporting a child rapist and his murder of citizens, I have to ask, how did they confuse bigotry for morality?

Truly sickened by the newest information from the Epstein files.

ICE is a terrorist organization, and I don't have the patience or peace of mind to hold space for people in my life who disagree.

If Ryan Coogler wins best director for Sinners, he'd be the first Black person to win best director. FYI

I proudly stand by the best sentence I ever wrote being in this review: evalyncogswell.substack.com/p/batman-ret...

When your government is quoting the Nazis and the KKK, that should be a clue to most people that your country is now one of the bad guys.

This is, not to put too fine a point on it, complete and utter bullshit.

ICE is a terrorist organization as evil as the KKK, Isis, or the Gestapo. They are doing exactly what they were trained to do. Abolish and prosecute everyone who worked for them.

So here’s the order of events: Renee Good: “I’m not mad at you.” *ICE officer shoots her in the face* ICE officer: “F**king b*tch” Trump: “It’s a miracle he’s alive” Vance: “She was a domestic terrorist.”

Ten films that most describe America's current government: 1) Salo, 120 Days of Sodom 2) Triumph of the Will 3) Birth of a Nation 4) Dancer in the Dark 5) A Rainy Day in New York 6) Poor Things 7) Martyrs 8) Hard to Be a God 9) The Book of Henry 10) Cats I recommend 0 of these films.

This is also who will have my vote in 2028.

In case it needed to be repeated: ICE is a terrorist organization, and anyone who defends them will be swiftly blocked.

What is the point of a live action MOANA remake? The best scene will still be almost entirely CGI, and if Jemaine Clement isn't singing "Shiny" what's the point anyway?

For absolutely no reason in particular, I'm thinking of rewatching Eyes Wide Shut this week.

The people who spent YEARS lecturing everyone about sexual morality now cannot even define the terms "child" or "rape." That tells you exactly how much they cared about sexual morality and how much that claim was a cudgel to beat anyone different from them.

unsubscribing from the new york times, no longer caring about harry potter, giving trans people money, and loudly supporting our rights among family, friends and coworkers were the bare minimum starting points, so go from there

Welp. Guess I can never go to a catholic hospital. www.npr.org/2025/11/12/g...

Anyway, today has been rough. Be gentle with yourselves as we navigate this hellscape.

As Transgender awareness week begins, here are my favorite movies about identity: 1) The Double Life of Veronique 2) Lady Bird 3) Three Colors: Blue 4) The Assassin 5) Mulholland Drive 6) All That Jazz 7) Only Lovers Left Alive 8) Heat 9) Persona 10) The Power of the Dog

For years I delusionally hoped that MAGA cultists would have a breaking point, and Trump could do something so horrible that he would lose their support. Today has been a harsh reminder that nothing he does is too evil for them to defend.

I've never publicly shared this, but I was sexually assaulted. And after the latest deluge of information linking Trump to Epstein, having to watch MAGA cultists (knowing that includes people I knew, grew up with, and trusted) make every excuse imaginable for this evil is beyond sickening.

If you're wondering which states it's not safe to travel to if your gender does match societal expectations, here you go: www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-...

An incoherent stream of buzzwords that he knows his base likes to hear. It would be funny if it weren't so tragic.

More than 1800 detainees are missing after the closure of Alligator Alcatraz. Their families and lawyers can’t find them and they’ve vanished from the ICE database. Feels like this should be a much bigger story www.miamiherald.com/news/local/i...

I don't share music stuff here too often, but here is my latest solo organ composition: www.youtube.com/watch?v=UMl-...

Anyone who thinks loving and supporting trans people involves clinging to a gender binary because TRVTH has blatantly never stepped foot in a non cis shoe, let alone taken two steps in one.

Very proud of this interview: youtu.be/aYff5CyUO90?...

Having had the state of my genitals publicly and derogatorily speculated about by transphobes, how the fuck are we the perverts?

Why do I feel like this is only going to be applied to churches that endorse republicans?
