They want to see trans politics to just be about trans people, those weirdos over there, rather than being about ideology that affects everyone in its controlling of bodies, sex, and gender

Bottom line is that anti trans politics is part of fascist politics and you can’t fight fascism by taking on and surrendering to its ideas

"Osborne loved the classic Hollywood stars even though he knew everything about them, the good and the bad, and he was wised-up, in the best 1930s way, rather than jaded." Dan Callahan's wise and very moving essay on TCM hosts Robert Osborne and Dave Karger: open.substack.com/pub/stolenho...

Gritting my teeth as I see Terence Stamp, gone today at the age of 87, referred to as "Superman costar" in obit headlines. He was sexier, weirder, darker, so much more interesting than that. Many entry points, but you can't go wrong starting with Billy Budd (1962) and The Collector (1965). RIP.
