do you know the john barrymore/errol flynn/w.c. fields story?

There have been so many adaptations of Mary Shelley's Frankenstein, but none of them truly do the novel justice; ahead of Guillermo del Toro's take, @kradec.bsky.social looks at five movies that try to capture the brilliance of the original.

Concrete (and terrible) example of Trump Admin's science/weather/climate cuts putting the safety and security of Americans at risk.

i’d argue we don’t need to kidnap people. but maybe that’s just me? also i can care about artists eating and people who should not be kidnapped at the same time.

I got hit with another bill. I have... a quarter left to my name after paying for mom's expenses this month. I'm really not okay with asking for so much help from you all, but needs must. Leads for writing/editing jobs are also appreciated! Please, help if you can: ko-fi.com/soniasulaiman

A teacher in Humboldt Park just shared this with me. Parent volunteers are needed to walk kids and keep them safe.

If someone can do alt text for me thank you. My anxiety is at 100 right now and I can’t process this all right now.

for when things get tough today or when the news totally gets you down.

here’s the article about the living wage for artists being passed in ireland, btw.

[crosses fingers here too]

i know, right? i’ve been telling dane i’d totally move to ireland for years. they respect writers and artists.

sadly, most ppl don’t. thing is, it’s entirely unnecessary. animals raised in humane conditions don’t need all the antibiotics. but factory farms are hugely profitable. and there we are.

holy crap. apparently ireland passed a living wage for artists. this is something every country should have—particularly in the states.

GOP’s labor market policy is market protectionism for white men.

understand that factory farming means animals raised in cages. unable to move freely. far too close together. very much not as nature intended as it were. that must be fed antibiotics all the time or they will be too sick and die. i’m not talking about the occasional treatment for disease here.

Good morning. Before you plunge your face deep into the overfull bowl of our clogged collective news toilet, cleanse yourself with an apple review! Today: the ORLEANS REINETTE.

suspect you’re right in that they’ve snapped to how much everyday ppl do not like them or their ‘products.' they’re hiding in fear. that insurance ceo assassination probably hit home hard.

I know the whole “every accusation is a confession” thing but it’s pretty clear this is the most elitist government that’s existed in decades. It’s just 12 billionaires in a group chat sharing banned Reddit memes

this is your periodic reminder that this doesn’t exist bc grandma didn’t take all of her antibiotics that one time. it’s because 80% of the antibiotic market is factory farming. *80 fucking percent.*

Antimicrobial resistance is responsible for some 1.2 million deaths a year a year and contributes to millions more. Data in the new report shows that the problem is growing at an alarming rate. n.pr/3J0HVBC

"This shows that if Israel, with the whole world watching, can treat a well-known, white person with a Swedish passport this way, just imagine what they do to Palestinians behind closed doors."

cops in the us have been busted for this on and off for years.

"wahhha. they called me names.” as an excuse for violence doesn’t work on playgrounds. why do you think it works for grown ass adults?
