Never mind movies you’ve watched multiple times, name a movie you’ve watched once and would never watch again.

I’m pescatarian now, but I can still be annoyingly rigid about my moral stances: I will not eat octopus. They’re the closest thing we can experience to alien intelligence, imo

When I was starting out as an erotica writer, I hung out a lot with an older gay man who'd been writing smut forever. He told me that without straight women writing gay paperbacks in the 1950s, gay culture as we know it might not exist. He insisted gay men owed these ladies a huge unpayable debt.

Did somebody say “Poor quality copper”? #TheArchers
The image that gets used for Ea-Nassir (pic 1) is about 1000 years too old to be him. Pic 2 and 3 are dudes from around 1900 BCE, which was Ea-Nasir time.

"Instead, we should deny the entire framing of the natalism debate."
This is the piece I've been waiting for as legacy media has spent the last couple of years sanewashing far-right pro-natalism.

New from me: In the New Republic @newrepublic.com, I wrote that we should refuse to choose between the easy way and the hard way to boost birth rates.
What If Both Sides in the Birth Rate Debate Are Wrong?
The right wants to steer women away from work and toward motherhood. The left wants to provide them with more state support so it’s easier to have children. We should refuse this choice.

I don't want to argue about Newsom. I really don't. If all that man did was troll the Trump Administration, I'd be thrilled. But unfortunately in between doing that he also like to platform racists on his podcast and be weird about trans people. I can't trust him.

Look, I'm just gonna tell cishet white people right now--Newsom ain't the one. You got Walz and Pritzker out here. You do not need a Bill Clinton clone wearing Mitt Romney's skin.
California Governor Gavin Newsom said on Thursday that the Democratic Party needed to be “more culturally normal” and “less judgmental.”

I dreamed of being at a Filipino party in a house that was many houses. I needed to leave, but I couldn’t find my shoes. Shoes everywhere, none of them mine. I said, “This is an emergency; I’ll just take some shoes that fit.” But… FILIPINO party. All of the shoes were way too small for my size 9s!

I successfully convinced myself I was having allergies for a week. Today, I admitted that I had been, in fact, coming down with a cold. In the way of things, this means I’m going to be well in a day, having only milked a day of sympathy out of an illness.
