My roommate getting the authentic Skyrim experience trying to build their character

The character customization screen of Slyrim is displayed on a TV. The in-game camera is clipped into the head of a horse, blocking the view of the player character.

I like how you can look at my profile and tell the exact moment I got a job.

Why did our first trans best actress nominee have to turn out to kind of suck as a human 😭

This is my favorite picture of Stonewall.

They knew they were getting arrested just for being LGBTQ+.

Yet... they're still here, standing outside of the boarded up Stonewall Inn, smiling as the world was at a fever pitch of hatred against them.

I think about it a lot in moments like this.

Let us be happy. Let us contribute to society. Killing us helps no one. You're just killing people trying to be people.

Being trans is very real, very serious, and I'm so glad I'm sitting here today able to be my full self. No one is changing who they are—we're all just trying to be ourselves instead of being forced to be someone we're not. I don't know why that offends people so much. Everyone just wants to be happy

Not once have I regretted my decision, and I want to stress it was MY decision. My parents weren't accepting of it until they saw first-hand how much of a difference gender-affirming care was making on my ability to be a happy normal teenager.

I was a very quiet kid. I've since blossomed.

I began transitioning when I was 14. That decision likely saved my life, and it's the single greatest decision I've ever made.

I'm able to be happy, confident and comfortable in ways I never experienced in my youth, especially as my dysphoria ramped up in middle school.

This will kill children...

is it uncharitable to say, i hope the new york times leadership gets not one moment of peace after this

Didn't love his movie but this I can get behind!

He's so real

Quote from Brady Corbet in A Rabbt's Foot: "There's a lot of this straight-edge
I think most sex scenes shouldn't be in a movie unless they are purposeful' and that's interesting. I feel completely the opposite.
I always think that every movie would be better if they fuck for eight minutes as the credits role."

Appreciation post for @nextbestpicture.bsky.social and @curtissonfilm.bsky.social because I enjoyed having them here!

I know the engagement probably isn't as good here, and it's more work to update both sites, but the work being put in was noticed and appreciated!

Realizing that the composer of one of my favorite scores from last year DID get Oscar nominated, just not for the film I wish it was for

Tris Arthur @tristalksmovies.bsky.social · Jan 24

One day, many years from now, we'll all be looking back at Better Man the way we do Scott Pilgrim and wondering how on earth we let it bomb 😔

Tris Arthur @tristalksmovies.bsky.social · Jan 23

Friendly #oscars reminder for everyone panicking about Emilia Pérez: CODA won with only three noms and after not even being nominated for Best Film at the BAFTAS.

Most noms DOES NOT EQUAL Best Picture Winner!

This is still a race!

I try not to get too worked up about the Oscars, but not nominating Nickel Boys for Best Cinematography ... that’s just plain dumb.

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.
