Film Twitter turning on I Saw the TV Glow right after I pour my heart out about it in an hour long video essay, where I describe my intense horror of growing up trans.

Can’t have shit in Detroit.

1. It would appear that in recent reporting, the BBC is now using the phrase "biological male who identifies as a woman" when they mean to talk about a transgender woman.

This is an incredibly demeaning way to talk about transgender women in news pieces.

BBC Now Calling Trans Women 'Biological Males Who Identify As Women'
These stories come in the aftermath of allegations that a small but mighty cabal of “LGBT reporters” had somehow seized control of the BBC and “censored” right-wing views.

It really annoys me that two of my favorite movies of all time just don’t exist in physical form in higher quality than DVD. I’ve been wanting blu-rays for these for YEARS. They’re the only two movies I own EXCLUSIVELY on DVD because there’s no better options.

I’m watching the Austin Powers movies for the first time, and I don’t think I realized just how few roles Mike Meyers had for his impact on pop culture. Like think about it, if you remove Wayne’s World, Austin Powers, and Shrek…he’s in a single digit number of theatrical movies.

Will Ferrell was moving like crazy in the 2000s

2001- Zoolander
2003- Old School, Elf
2004- Anchorman
2005- Bewitched
2006- Talladega Nights
2007- Blades of Glory
2008- Step Brothers
2010- The Other Guys, Megamind
2012- The Campaign

8 out of these 11 movies made $100 million

The other night I had a dream that there was an evil version of Nebula. And I don't mean like a conservative version, I mean like I had a dream where there was a Nebula like service but for like slightly subpar creators beneath Nebula.

John Mulaney might be the first comedian to get sober and somehow get WEIRDER. Like he stopped taking cocaine AND THATS WHEN HE DECIDED TO START FIGHTING CHILDREN ON TV?!

While Maryland Gov. Moore posted about Trans Day of Rememberance, his state was torturing a trans woman by denying her hormones and housing her with men--according to her lawyer--for 2 months.

All of this for "hate crime" charges from alleged vandalism of a trans symbol near a Catholic school.

My brain last night while I had a migraine: hey what if this is actually a brain tumor and you die miserably without achieving anything? Wouldn’t that be crazy?

I’m glad my brain is so supportive

I don’t hate Wicked but being solidly in the “Wicked 1 was very middling” camp and seeing these reactions has me feeling vindicated.

Like last year I had people genuinely arguing to me that they should nominate John M. Chu for Best Director. And I was just like…HUH?!

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. Today we honor those we’ve lost. Trans people are at a high risk of hate crimes, discrimination, poverty, and the current systems are tossing out the actual medically agreed on treatment guidelines for torture (conversion therapy).

Officially, it’s called the John Hancock Tower.

If you take away all the fandom wars, the state of comic book movies is objectively hilarious to think about. Like Zack Snyder used to run DC films and while he did, he posted an image of Batman eating out Catwoman, then they gave that role to the writer of Tromeo and Juliet.

Okay I’m gonna be honest, people are hating on the new Running Man, and it’s weak by Wright standards, and uneven as all hell. But I kinda thought it was okay. At least as a popcorn action comedy with obvious as hell commentary. Wasn’t ever bored.
