Look, I love Solange and think her music is great, but I am getting very tired of her music video shtick. Every video is roughly the same - Solange, in quirky high fashion, in quirky locations, sometimes dancing all quirky-like. The lighting in generally the same, the production design is generally the same. I prefer

Those criss cross high necklines, I just die

I’m somewhat embarrassed to admit, but pretty much every time I went, I followed the dudes. The actors in SNM are all really hot, and a lot of the one-on-one scenes (if you’re lucky enough to get chosen) are in very small, intimate spaces. I have to fan myself even thinking about it.

Ah, upon further research, the Hitchcock parts are just references, not the story. The McKittrick Hotel is a nod to Vertigo, and the Manderlay Bar at the entrance (I think?) is a reference to Rebecca.

That first point is something I wonder about all the time. Why so fervently cling to the religion of your oppressors? I’m a Latinx atheist, and wonder this all the time about Latinx communities too - the missionaries came in the same boats as the Conquistadors!

DO IT. I’ve been three times (once that I paid for, twice more as gifts), and each time was more incredible than the last. One of my favorite things that I did when I lived in NYC

Macbeth + Hitchcock’s Rebecca, no?

NE Portland, as I remember it, was pretty diverse. Granted, I lived there 7 years ago, and would not be surprised at all to hear that the diversity has largely been priced out, but still, it was there.

I hated it. The uncanny valley killed me, it made the animals look flat, and I hated that they decided to go realistic while still animating the animals’ lips as if they were actually speaking. MAKES NO SENSE!

But...what if they get Jeremy Irons to reprise this role as Scar? And Nathan Lane as Timon? Honestly, with those two attached, you could put paper plate masks on the Boston Dynamics robot dog and I would pay all the moneys to watch it.

I’m really hoping that it’s not a love story between the two of them, but something more like a healing, productive creative relationship where they are learning how to be writers again, together, and also back each other up on their separate romantic endeavors. I would watch that in a second

Now playing

I do want to defend Suicide Squad’s opening weekend numbers by reminding everyone of how incredibly BAMF the trailers leading up to it were. Señor Sprinks and I were very excitedly anticipating the film, went opening weekend before the Internet exploded with spoilers, and were bitterly, bitterly disappointed. I can’t

Scrolling past this comment as fast as I can before I start crying in the middle of work

Ok, he loved watching football, but he dedicated his life to the library. So throw the football team $100,000 and give the $1 million (minimum) to the library?

Silver lining: this whole situation gave her the set up for that most excellent burn in response. A+ burn, Rep Curtis

It’s hard not to be an asshole biker sometimes, or rather, to not be seen as one. A lot of cities still haven’t figured out how to write rules that are actually appropriate for bike commuting, and a lot of drivers still haven’t figured out that someone riding their bike does not automatically equal an asshole biker.

Whyyyyy Marc Jacobs, WHY? That video you released earlier this week was so FUN and I just wanted to be able to LOVE IT without feeling BAD because you are a BAD STUPID PERSON. GAWD

Please hand over every. Single. Pair. Of those earrings. Ear-pieces? Whatever, I love them

Preach. I loved the show, but the kitten heels looked like hell to walk a runway with. No way to stride commandingly, or even gracefully, in those things.
