What do you think is Wes Craven’s best film that isn’t part of the A NIGHTMARE ON ELM STREET or SCREAM franchises?

I feel like everyone will have a different answer and that’s really interesting to me.

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera

In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.

As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

Shout out to my wife @harmonycolangelo.bsky.social who is as intelligent as she is hot and refuses to take her foot off the necks of people who profit off of transphobic Gein propaganda.

Ryan Murphy’s ‘Monster’ Tried To Avoid the Transgender Killer Trope. It Didn’t

Ed Gein wasn't transgender, but that hasn't stopped Hollywood from indulging in the transphobic narrative that inspired Psycho and Silence of The Lambs.

We love this movie and I love this episode. @harmonycolangelo.bsky.social has had some ✨thoughts✨ recently about the state of transness in America, and all of those feelings came out during this podcast episode.

ENJOY!

NEW EP: BIT (2020)

How do we exist in a world that treats us like monsters for existing and what do we do when we're finally given power? This week is an especially political discussion so strap in and get ready to kick some ass and bite some necks!

Listen wherever you get your podcasts!

The This Ends at Prom episode announcement for Bit 2020 featuring Nicole Maines as Laurel washed in bisexual lighting. the quote "we're made to be monsters, so let's be monsters. let's be gods." is underneath it as well as the patreon.com/thisendsatprom link.

If anyone at the premiere tonight heard a “THAT’S FUCKIN’ RIGHT!” yelled during the end credits of BLACK PHONE 2 where it declared that the movie cannot be repurposed to train AI, that was me.

C. Robert Cargill @crobertcargill.bsky.social · 3d

There’s an interview going around about AI, so before there are any questions, let me state unequivocally that BLACK PHONE 2 is 100% organic. AI was not used at any stage of the filmmaking from idea generation, research, look books, writing, onscreen images - anything. We’re old school and love it.

We need execs to start saying “AI SUCKS SHIT” and that be the only statement. Anything else? I don’t wanna fucking hear it.

britt hayes @britthates.bsky.social · 3d

Jason Blum's take on AI sucks. an AI takeover isn't inevitable, and treating it as such (while also referring to filmmaking as "content creation," smdh) helps AI companies promote the lie that their deeply unprofitable, destructive tech is more powerful and useful than it actually is.

I think he's deliberately not signing the other bills so that they'll automatically become law without his having to put his name on them. That way, when he runs for president, he can have plausible deniability to cater to conservatives when they discuss his legislative career.

HE SUCKS.

I just saw a job posting looking for writers to help train AI that pays more than double what I currently make.

A redheaded Ginnifer Goodwin as Beth Ann Stanton dressed like a 1960s housewife smiling with the quote "I need to buy a gun." It's a meme made out of an episode of Why Women Kill.

I just stared at her before I was finally like... "Ma'am, fruits cannot range." And she laughed and was like, "I just mean, they weren't grown in a factory or something, right?" And I just smiled and blinked.

I once worked at an indoor playground, and this super crunchy mom asked me if the organic fruit snacks were free range. She was dead serious.

I'm not officially rating/reviewing the film anywhere, but reading this really gave me a new appreciation for some of the stuff that initially irked me and made me bump it up a half-star in my mind.
