I booked my husband and I a banger of a Friday to start this weekend. We start off with You Can See Everything and then approximately 20 minutes later we see Ken Russell's The Devils. It's a great theater so there will be snacks, drinks, and pinball between the screenings.

This is what I expected from Iñárritu this time around. A pompous bit of bullshit that says nothing but that he obviously thinks is Very Deep and Meaningful. When really it's masturbatory nonsense that falls flat. I hope it bombs at the box office.

DIGGER is what happens when you give the week's worst Saturday Night Live sketch an inexplicably large budget and delusions of grandeur. My review of Alejandro González Iñárritu’s stunningly designed but dramatically impotent, comedically irritating, insufferably smug film is at @thewrap.com.

As a millennial Minnesotan the only appropriate phrase for this is, "oh for cute!" And be sure to elongate that 'oh'.

Child: This is my first time meeting a mayor. Mamdani: Wow, have you ever met a prime minister? Child: No Norway PM Jonas Gahr Støre: *walks over*

My hubs and I decided that for the reat of 2026 we will have #ClassyTuesday and #TrashyWednesday and we alternate who gets to pick a movie that fits the category each week. 1st up, he chose Classy - THE WOLF MAN (1941). Still debating what I should choose for tomorrow 🤔 suggestions welcome!

the moderate democratic position on Gaza is that if Israel’s opponents do not comport themselves perfectly, if they don’t dance flawlessly through the rhetorical minefields every day, then it’s dead children forever.

Lisa Demuth and Michele Tafoya are going to work hand-in-hand to pass Donald Trump's anti-choice agenda. Minnesotans deserve better.

Lisa Demuth has already tried to ban abortion in Minnesota – with no exceptions for rape and incest. We can’t give her the chance to get it done as Governor.

The hype about #Wicker is very amusing but I do feel obligated to remind larger media outlets that the reason he is so hot is because he's an attentive and enthusiastic lover who prioritizes his partners happiness. And is also Alexander Skarsgard reproduced in wicker, in that order.

They say that going through menopause is as hormonally impactful as puberty. I am on the cusp of this experience and suddenly find myself listening to my angsty teen favorites. Cringing along to Stabbing Westward and Staind (first album only) while making dinner for the kids is kind of hilarious.

Definitely not beating the #adhd allegations with my 3 beverages. Just took a sip from each, water, bodyarmor, then coffee of course. Least flavorful to most.

Things I and friends have done to calm an angry abusive man from further escalating and killing us or our children: -Smiled -Kept normal schedules in order not to trigger a fight -Appeased with kind acts (cooking, cleaning, favors) -Forced friendly tones and words

Rep. Max Miller: "My former wife has claimed that during a custody exchange at my home that day, I assaulted her…If I had assaulted her, would she have offered to cook me dinner six days later?"

I am not a sports fan, but I have to say, the immediacy and intensity of Sumo is so addicting. Maybe its the ADHD, in that things that go on forever just aren't my thing but I love this.

"Let us sit in my cottage and enjoy some food and wine and take some joy in hearing how much pain each have suffered." Eumaeus describes hanging out in middle age to Odysseus on his return to Ithaca.

The inevitable outcome of this kind of BS is that any woman who can compete with a man isn't actually a woman. These fucking ghouls really love the idea that women are a monolith and that if you aren't a dainty, submissive, weak, conventionally attractive, simpering fool then you are not a woman.

1. After pushing anti-trans laws to ‘protect women’s sports’, Project 2025’s Heritage Foundation now wants women’s sports gone to ‘assist fertility.’ Turns out it was about women’s sports all along—if getting rid of women's sports counts, that is.

This kind of categorization is insidious. It allows the Heritage foundation to declare that there are real women and then there is the other. Those who refuse to behave like women are therefore not women and deserve nothing but contempt.

Reading #TheOdyssey before seeing it in theaters this weekend and I have some thoughts, none new observations I'm sure. I'm about halfway through. 1. Odysseus is the ultimate wife guy 2. Every dude but Poseidon wants Odysseus to marry his daughter 3. Athena is the real GOAT in all of this

I'm putting this out there because I feel like I need to. Existence really fucking sucks sometimes. It is painful, demanding, and so often a double edged sword. I mean you gotta do it because what else is there. But fuck.

Caelan continues to bring the fire. Love it. Watch it. Support them, because they are both very cool and hot AF.

Everywhere Republicans gather, Grindr crashes. Or at least, that's what people have told me about 500 times since my video discussing if homophobia is always rooted in secretly being gay. But is it true? Do republicans constantly crash Grindr whenever they meet? New Video: youtu.be/GHeAJPbx0SI

The Pride sale for my newsletter, Episodes, runs through TOMORROW (naturally). If you've ever loved my writing and want a year's access to a lot of great criticism and other stuff for 20 percent off... here are all the details! Your support means the world to me. episodes.ghost.io/episodes-pri...

Off to #TwinCities #Pride with my youngest and my husband and I decided to take an Uber rather than deal with parking. Our very nice driver is listening to an audio book on Alexander The Great. Low key queer representation FTW? 🤣 Had to drop an @dancarlin.bsky.social rec to him of course.

Using contraception during marriage is STILL how people have consequence free sex! Being married doesn't make a difference. Contraception is what makes it possible for those who can carry a child to control their own lives. That makes people like this uncomfortable. The NYT continues to be awful.

This article abridged, "Sluts are gross amirite fellas?!" With a pick me idiot as their little pet to parrot this regressive hateful nonsense so they can claim it's not because they don't think women are people! No. Definitely not that!

America really needs to rebrand as The Weirdo Place to Chill in whatever climate you prefer. Come hang out, eat our food, go to a concert or theater show and see a bunch of weirdos!

This weekend I will be making so many fucking cupcakes for my oldest child's grad party. They asked for Red Velvet w/cream cheese frosting. Did y'all know the Dutch process cocoa is no longer readily available? #baking #parent

Whenever I remember that James Joyce existed I immediately think, "Fuck You James Joyce." But it's said with the best wishes and hopes for the future. Because that guy was so fucking extra and really needed an aggressive fan base to urge him on through spite.

Famous authors asking you out

I am melancholic but pleased in the moments when I remember My Old Men. These fuckers were with me since I was 17. They kept me sane and alive. Thank the fucking world for cats.

I have this very nice and very large framed print of Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. I recently got a real office at my job and have a ton of open wall space that I can decorate as I please. My coworker informed me it would not be A Good Look to hang this on the wall but some days..

Ah yes the notoriously clean cut, lighthearted, family film... *checks notes* Escape From New York Snyder has nothing to bring to this project and he really needs to get his own ideas.

FANGORIA@fangoria.bsky.social

Zack Snyder is getting back in the remake game with a "down and dirty" new take on one of John Carpenter's most iconic movies.

Caelan is doing important work, if you have some spare funds please consider throwing it their way. Let's lift them up so they can actually get professional support and take the breaks they need and not burn out. 💛🤍💜🖤

This is Lucifer, named after the fallen angel from judeo-christian mythology. Lucifer is a sweet himbo. Does he think he's only 4 pounds when he is almost 20? Check Can he only make soft whisper meows that can be both cute or scary? Check Is he actually the Prince of Darkness? Probably
