I’m one of the ones who cried when the yellow crawl first came on screen for TFA and TLJ, I have various pieces of Star Wars art around the home, read the EU graphic novels and books, etc. and yeah I fell asleep during TLJ the first and only time I saw it. It’s too damn long. And also not a good story.

Mudbound was a well-made film, with moments of brutality that linger with me. I’m also watching the Ken Burns Civil War documentary right now, and it surprised me to see how little had changed, economically speaking, for sharecroppers during the World War II era. The societal nastiness of KKK-led raids, separate…

This is not the only reason to buy this book, but it is the best reason.

The Coachella festival is also loathed year-round by the Purepecha, an Indigenous tribe in the Coachella valley who resent the hordes of people who come to their home every year and trash it. They’re basically economic refugees from Mexico, and the music festival is an annual catastrophe for them.

Yer just busting their chops.

Yep. Lost interest & stopped watching it shortly after that episode.

Bannon really knows how to push Trump’s throbbing Button.

It’s because I’m watching the Ken Burns Civil War documentary rn, and that line at the end of “I’m the third generation of a family that has blah blah blah” was delivered to my head in Shelby Foote’s langorous Southern drawl, and not in a good way. My dad is a prominent member of our tribe, and I chose to work in a…

Anything that gets Sylvan Esso in the news for good things is...good. All of this is good. Good, I say! Congrats to the happy couple and congrats to Sylvan Esso, my favorite musical find of 2017.

I fell in lust with him watching Luke Cage, and a few weeks into binging on that, I went to take my nieces to Hidden Figures, not knowing he’s in that too. The theatre was pretty empty, and I did this dramatic gasp when he came on screen in Hidden Figures, and my nieces were giving me side eye. I wish I had watched…

Let Melania be the judge of that.

You were already one of my favorites here, and now you just solidified it.

It’s koo. But for a minute, I was like ack how does PF know this, what Black Mirror episode am I in? I had a miscarriage in June and it’s been since then. The holidays were tough because what would have been my due date is coming up next week.

When one of my cousins was a teenager in the 90s, she tasted Grandma’s Christmas cooking and decreed it “a bombass ham”, and that’s what this excitable tone reminds me of, that era in the 90s when a lot of the marketing was Xtreme or xxxtreme and so on.

Roller derby. Starbucks ordering. Former OkCupid. When in Vegas. Pet hamster’s.

Unfortunately, yes. Ttc, so it’s devastating when I do.

I’m watching Malcolm X right now, and when Malcolm was working as a porter on the Boston-New York train line, you see Malcolm having romances with two women in Boston and New York, zoot suiting at the Savoy Ballroom, fighting in nightclubs, making out on sandy beaches, etc. They showed one scene of him working on the…

Anyone else find it off-putting that she says she makes films to find out her place in the world/who she is/for her own evolution? To me, it comes off that she’s lamenting that the navel gazing of a rich white woman isn’t as interesting to the public as it to that same rich white woman.

Quitting social media last summer is one of the best things I have ever done for myself. I was entrenched in the activist world, and I got tired of seeing that work get monetized, where people could just create a GoFundMe to afford a long stay at Standing Rock, and activism was reduced to sharing hashtags and staged…
