The reason Sinners is so good is that it’s not a horror movie. It is a film about the Black experience, and the immigrant experience in America. It tells the story of marginalized peoples and uses vampires as allegory to tell that story. It is SO much more than a “vampire movie.”

This thing where you go lie down on the big flat soft, cocoon yourself in warmth and comfort, and make the world go away for six to eight hours is suspiciously bullshit.

little old Southern ladies come in looking for books to help them better understand their kids or grandkids who are transitioning and/or gender nonconforming. people want to connect with their autistic kids, their chronically ill siblings, their immigrant neighbors. I see it every day. every day.

Do people realize how many Black women ended up broke after sacrificing so much for the civil rights movement?
We don't make a coin from any of it. We go broke. We die broke. Y'all write about it and make millions.
We can no longer be bullied into sacrifice we cannot afford.

The person who punched Richard Spencer and instantly made him a meme never got caught. Just threw one punch and skipped off into immortality. I think about that a lot.
one of the most important things to learn, if you're out there doing things:
you don't get to talk about it.
you don't get to brag about it, you don't get to tell your friends, you don't get drinks bought for you in the bar off the story.
it's *always* shut the fuck up friday

If you liked the Hidden Almanac feast days over on Twitter, it’s made the long journey!
21 March is the Feast Day of Saint Dwight, patron of unpleasant growths. He attained sainthood when he developed a boil in the shape of Our Lord. His representations are unfortunate and his worshippers are thankfully few.
