"I needed a drink, I needed a lot of life insurance, I needed a vacation, I needed a home in the country. What I had was a coat, a hat and a gun. I put them on and went out of the room."

People praise raul julia's performance in the awful street fighter movie (and rightfully so) but no ever talks about how Bob Hoskins was also great as Mario in the equally terrible super Mario Bros movie

Many things are being destroyed & the news of it is a psychological & political onslaught.

So it’s important that you create things.

It can be art, cookies, a community pantry, a garden, a mask bloc. It can be beautiful, practical, silly. Just create & share.

It’ll do your brain & the world good.

It's fall (it is fall, right?) but all the coolest kids still need to read @libbycudmore.bsky.social 's NEGATIVE GIRL. It's a new vibe for an old-fashioned mystery genre, the PI novel.

What they don’t tell you about blood tests is the lab and everything is just for show. After you leave they give your blood to a vampire and they can tell what’s going on by taste.

It cannot be made clearer.

If you continue to support the Harry Potter franchise in any way, you are directly funding the removal of trans people's human rights in the UK.

All the “let’s just concede trans stuff” Democrats can get well and truly bent

Almost every person who answered The News' survey said they'd had more trouble sleeping and felt less safe in public spaces since November. Over two-thirds said they'd been thinking more about suicide.

every time you see a man with the pork sweats lecturing on what “women really want,” remember that the ideal father is whoever this guy is.

i don’t even want kids but like: this is who you have ‘em with!
