I would absolutely love to see him in a serious role with Paul Thomas Anderson at the helm. It seems too perfect.

Also, the idea of a solution being inviting journalists in is..... eh. Separation sometimes makes for the best profiles and evaluations of art.

Here’s the thing, I’ll probably be buried in grays. Artists definitely need to embrace a little bit of “Death of the Author” and just let their work exist outside of their personal self-worth. It’s out in the world, and you cannot control people’s reaction to said work.

This is the sort of deep nerdery I come here for. Can’t wait to dive into these links! I would love to see a revisiting of the art pop/art rock/new wave tendrils that branch off of the usual canon. The current revival of darkwave/postpunk tends to hug the Joy Division rails, but I would love to see some bedroom artist…

You realize this has to do more widely with the very common practice of accusing specifically Black men of rape, a primary cause of many lynchings leading up to this time period? This isn’t some Reddit nonsense.

But can we have a David S. Pumpkins/Twin Peaks crossover thing? It just feels correct.

Did anyone else find the use of CGI for most of the scary bits more funny-grotestque instead of actually scary? I couldn’t tell if my Twin Peaks whiplash from Lynchian horror to regular horror was spoiling the movie for me, or if it was meant to be somewhat comical in that “Drag Me to Hell” sort of way.

It was like this season was made for Lynch to explore his Brecht side. It’s strange that a man that so avoids meta conversations so consciously kept the “this is a tv show” front and center, especially around characters that were dying or deceased. I just kept thinking “estrangement effect” over and over watching the…

For those that can’t get into Lore, I’d give Here Be Monsters a try. It has a bit more... fangs to it? I always have a hard time with Lore who he thinks the audience is.

I was going to say. As a print designer, this doesn’t seem wholly unreasonable. Especially licensing for photography, etc. on top of everything.

Raven AND Nicole Byer? Get out of my head.

Assign things outside of books that make White people comfortable. Prioritize books in which a Black character is the protagonist, not just a very helpful sidekick or “magical negro.” Assign things outside of the civil rights narrative, even perhaps something that portrays Black life as something positive, or…

Yeah. This book and others gives me PTSD of being the one Black kid in the class when Black™ things were discussed.

I’m in love with her sidekicks, “Tumblr 1 & Tumblr 2.”

I get it was an off the cuff statement, but just... no. At least in the state I live in now people admit there’s issues. At least in Chicago people admit things were and are messed up beyond one or two bad apples, and I came in as an outsider instead of being indoctrinated in it. I can only speak for Portland and…

As a biracial person from the PNW (Oregon/Washington border) I really dislike the fallacy purported by people that live where I’m from (and left, subsequently). As a child, I almost drank the Koolaid that the PNW was a racial wonderland with no issues historical or present. But come on. Come on. This obtuse way a…

Reminds me of a top post on Reddit from yesterday. It had a picture of Caitlyn and Kris, with a caption something like “That moment when your ex who used to be a man looks better than you.” Now, outside of the transphobia/inaccurate statement about Jenner, it’s very telling about how womanhood only exists in…

I’m sort of in love with those dramatic collars that button down. Like, I want one of those wool coats or one of the blazers, stat.

My go-to dark right now are Anastasia's new liquid lipstick in Potion. Great stuff. Goes really well with my yellow undertone, medium skin.

Coffee forever.
