My new piece on The X-Files is up on @tvobsessive.com! This time I'm looking at the second season episode and how it speaks to some of the societal problems we have still today.

New episode of #TheBackdrop up at @SecondWindGroup.com.

This week, @janjozone.bsky.social and I look at how #Fallout argues that, in this post-apocalyptic hellscape, we’re all just NPCs to the billionaires who think they’re going to live forever.

I'd like to remind everyone that there's a scene in Man Of Steel where Clark literally comes out of the closet.

And while the immigrant perspective is perhaps the most obvious one, I’ve also seen queer and trans people strongly relate to the idea that we are not forced to be who society demands us to be, rather we are free to choose who we want to become, with all the existential anxiety and joy that implies
What if a child dreamed of becoming something other than what society had intended? What if a child aspired to something greater? The truth about you is beautiful. We saw that the moment we laid eyes on you. We knew one day the whole world would see that.

Hello, friends! With nothing to do but talk to each other, simmering tensions finally boil over for our unfortunate protagonists in Fitzgerald's Port just in time for the knives to come out.

Calling transphobia a 'gateway drug' to the far right undersells it. It's pure accelerant. Grimly fascinating to guess what crankery becomes any famous transphobe's secondary obsession, cos they all have one: 15 minute cities are fascism! Grok noncing is cool! ICE are good! We should kill all dogs!
Sharron Davies ranting against 15 minute cities, because of course she is. Suzanne Moore in the Telegraph saying she wants to... kill all dogs?? Julie Burchill asking "does it matter if Grok undresses us all?" in The Spectator Graham Linehan in the midst of his now four-day-long double down on Alex Pretti's murder being justified and fine.

Curt Cignetti has done the unthinkable, turning the biggest loser in college football history into a 16-0 national champion in just two seasons.

With the win, he has proven to be the best coach in the sport, @brucefeldmancfb.bsky.social writes.
