One day somebody NEEDS to write a dissertation about the royalist politics of these 'fake European sovereign nation Christmas romance' movies where Americans can live out the fantasies of marrying into royalty unburdened by any meaningful politics or histories.

The best part of 12 Angry Men is Juror #8 smiling as he instigates fights between the other jurors like Noemi Malone starting a fist fight on the dance floor at a nightclub.

Look I’m not trying to sound egotistical but I just feel like if I was there during the Salem witch trials with all those girls screaming about being collectively cold, I’d be the one going “guys this is dumb.” I just really think I’d be That Bitch in the witch club.

My #1 fav romcom trope is the pathologically boundary-trampling friend who lives exclusively to force the protagonist into various dream situations and never once thinks of wearing the dress, going for the promotion or dating the senator herself.

I’m done being polite about this. My kid is transgender. MY CHILD. A real human being with a heart, a future, and a right to exist safely in this province. And Alberta just invoked the notwithstanding clause AGAIN — this time to force through laws that directly harm kids like
I knew that this day was coming. The UCP had been warning for months that they were going to take away the rights of transgender people (not just children but adults too). I thought I was prepared. But I am still very angry that it has happened.

Danielle Smith is not only evil and cruel, she is so outrageously lazy that she’d rather just strip people of their civil rights than have to defend her own position. Regardless of party, the abuse of the notwithstanding clause should concern everyone.
In late 2024, Alberta’s government passed legislation to preserve the choices of children and youth, improve access to health services and protect children, families, and parental involvement in the education system. Since passing this legislation, three lawsuits have been filed

I loved FRANKENSTEIN, but i did think it was weird del Toro ended the movie with this quote

I think del Toro's Frankenstein asks us to have sympathy for the monster--the angelic and blameless monster. I think that's Fine but I also think it's more challenging to demand sympathy for monsters that are flawed, cruel, sometimes even dangerous.

This is a thread all about mine and @linkeepsitreal queer noir webcomic https://t.co/ShQJbZgqRt, a historical fantasy comic where the alcohol prohibition in the 1920s is instead a prohibition of COLOUR 🍸💚 The archive is big, it’s free to read, and the story is in its final act!

Danielle Smith cannot be allowed to casually trample our rights. Alberta's education system needs a leader, not a coward. Signed.

Alberta Premier Smith has used the Notwithstanding Clause to pass laws that erase rights and silence the courts.

Mandating teachers back, forced to accept a bad deal, forbidding them from making legal challenges and threatening to fine teachers who don't comply is pure evil and anti-democratic. The slimy ad with smiling children back in school is hideous.

As a university professor, it's heartbreaking to see how hostile the Alberta government is towards teachers, how actively they're working to ensure their jobs are unsustainable, and how badly they want to torpedo their own children's chances at thriving in higher education.

Saw ReAnimator (85). Love how often someone grabs Herbert like a misbehaving cat & goes "HERBERTNO" because this man refuses to stop doing outrageous unethical science, will not apologize for his outrageous unethical science, & will not be denied his outrageous unethical science.
