So stoked to share the news that I have written a NEW essay about Susan Streitfeld's CRIMINALLY underseen FEMALE PERVERSIONS, an incredible erotic hangout movie, for @cine-matographe.bsky.social!

Grab yours here, my fellow pervs 💋 vinegarsyndrome.com/collections/...

Medically speaking, I need to acquire SHADOW TICKET before the weekend.

It should not surprise you to learn that I have run the thought experiment of "could I write an erotic thriller good enough to get that man back in movies" many times before l o l

Saw a post about LINCOLN having its NYFF premiere on this day in 2012 + realized that James Spader hasn't been in a movie in TEN WHOLE YEARS. A crime against humanity, honestly!!

The group chat with my childhood besties began the day by asking "have you seen these Reddit threads about the collective Mallworld dreams we're all having and gifted + talented programs in the 80s + 90s??" and I may never know peace again.

Father Paul + FLEABAG really should've ignited more of a hot, tortured priest revival and yet...

Just unspeakably sad to learn that the Palisades fire was arson.

"You are not special enough to overcome a bad marriage" is one the of the most devastating burns in all of cinema.

Dolly Parton’s sister, Freida Parton, is asking for people to pray for her sister’s health.

Verified Facebook post by Freida Parton. The caption reads:

“Last night, I was up all night praying for my sister, Dolly. Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately. I truly believe in the power of prayer, and I have been lead to ask all of the world that loves her to be prayer warriors and pray with me. She’s strong, she’s loved, and with all the prayers being lifted for her, I know in my heart she’s going to be just fine. Godspeed, my sissy Dolly. We all love you! ❤️”

Below the caption is a photo of Dolly Parton standing outdoors in front of lush green ivy, hands clasped in prayer, wearing a shiny silver outfit with lace-trimmed sleeves, her signature blonde hair styled in soft curls, looking upward serenely.

YES, I love that! I can't believe I didn't know this either, glad I could share this with you too.

Did you read the big, sad piece in Rolling Stone about Eric Carmen in Rolling Stone too? That gave me a whole new appreciation for them, I also have been sleeping on their whole deal. www.rollingstone.com/music/music-...

Eric Carmen Was a Power-Pop Legend. Then He Vanished

How Eric Carmen's perfectionism, personal demons, and obsession with conspiracy theories haunted the pop genius until his unexplained 2024 death.

My dad likes to give me shit by saying "we should have known you were gonna be a stoner given how much you watched FANTASIA as a kid" so yeah, this all tracks.

TIL: Disney made a special poster for the 1969 re-release of FANTASIA aimed squarely at stoners + hippies and THAT theatrical run is how the movie first turned a profit.

My parents always said the same thing too!! FWIW that kind of canned salmon is still VERY much available in Ohio...

You can take the billy out of the hills, etc. etc.

K8 Häxan 🦇 @thathagengrrl.bsky.social · 1d

Because of a lower-middle class Midwestern childhood that often featured salmon patties for breakfast: I still like the canned salmon with the soft bones + skin included.
