They/them. PhD researcher at Birmingham City University. Writes about the fun stuff: surveillance, torture, and depressingly 2000s horror films.
Only the truth! And with reason, it's incredible. Directing is not showy, but the way it slides in and out of the past using mirrors and stuff just feels ... incredibly resonant and evocative when it comes to the gnc experience and the whole sort of idea of queer time, a la Halberstam :D

Among many other things, it put me onto "Come Back to the Five and Dime, Jimmy Dean Jimmy Dean", which has to be one of the best films by a major American director no one ever seems to talk about.

I've really enjoyed not playing these games and just getting drip-fed mounds of insane lore about this ... time-travel yaoi vampire epic? ... by cultural osmosis, I've got to say.

It wasn't even the old classics, but boy howdy did I recall suffering through Anniversary. She had so many uncomfortable encounters with walls, floors, apes, dinosaurs, spikes, giant rolling balls ...

Absolutely loved it when it first came out, I've really soured on it since. OMaM really was a band that I only connected with during my teenage years.

Surprisingly - not that much, no! I've never been very interested in it, and since my thesis focuses on the 00s exclusively, I haven't felt an urgent need to catch up. I probably should, someday, though XD
