I make film zines. It used to be my job to write about weird movies, it's not my job now but it's still good to do. I put lots of work into the zines because I don't like essays to be basic. Below, covers for zines about Hitchcock, lesbian vampires, and Scream, all handmade. sara-century.square.site

@saracentury.bsky.social was posting about Captain Mar-Vell the other day and now I can't stop thinking about brooding Jim Starlin protagonists.

shifting hourly comics day forward a week is a nice move.
Hourly Comics Day has MOVED!
It's the 20th anniversary and we're taking a stand alongside our Black cartoonist members and friends to demand a change to honor Black History Month- draw your comics on the 8th, not the 1st!

There are comics that are great if not good, for instance X-Treme X-Men which does not and cannot work, but also if you tell someone about any part of it they're like W H A T so it's still somehow delightful.

It always feels like all the wrong people die, but I think it’s because there are far more beloved people than there are bastards.

i once bought a new blazer for a schitts creek panel, and when i walked into the green room, catherine o'hara complimented me on it, and also noted that i had forgotten to cut all the threads off the vents.
and then she leaned in and said, "it's because you're going to return it, isn't it"

DOJ is Trump's personal law firm that we pay for. Free for him to use its unlimited resources to harass people like Lemon, Lisa Cook or Comey. We collectively pay the price both in our taxes and in losing a nonpartisan legal system. The individual victims must pay ruinous financial costs and stress.
This is about forcing Don Lemon to spend money and time defending himself.
"“They probably don’t have any expectation that this prosecution will stick," legal expert tells me. "But they do know they will put Don Lemon through the grinder in the meantime."

Cult leaders and snake oil salesmen depend on quantity of speech, not quality. Those tirades tend to be peppered with thought eliminating cliches, something like, I dunno, "make America great again." It's repeated constantly because it's a statement that halts critical thought for followers.

Ran across this in the course of my Myrna Loy research last night, “…of course I had read ‘Mein Kampf’ at that time, and not very many people had, and I said, ‘He says everything he is going to do and he’s going to do it.’ But nobody paid attention to it…”

I mean this is 100% accurate. As I have consistently written, Democrats have, somehow, in the past 15 years of living in this world, never figured out what leverage is or how to use it. newrepublic.com/article/2014...
Two weeks is a lifetime on Capitol Hill. Trump will create new distractions. Public attention will shift elsewhere. Delay deprives Dems of leverage and favors the GOP.

Take note of who in the media promulgated the fake, imaginary "new tone/de-escalation" stories. Consider why they would do that. Remember them for next time!

I'm going to teach a workshop in how to respond when someone who does not really read horror at all asks you to show them your very weird book with lots of queer sex and body horror and murder and whatever else.

my replies the last few days have made clear that the moment fascists realize communists are real, organized, and not scared of them, they completely crash out and their entire worldview collapses. it’s deeply embarrassing for them

I love my pets so much. It's been a very difficult process to become human in this way. I used to be so free 😂 now I think of my rabbits' ears or my cats' little whiskers and I'm a sobbing mess.

I'm not going to share other people's personal business, but the importance of timely screenings has been of great importance as of late and I'm realizing that a skipped year can far too easily become a death sentence.

🚨 The Senate has agreed to a deal to vote on 5/6 full appropriations bills and replace the DHS funding measure with a 2-week stopgap bill, per multiple sources. That gives time to negotiate on the Dem demands for ICE and CBP restraints.

I maintain this! The best WW stories are horror stories and the OG Spider-Woman is basically an exploitation film. And that's when she was most strongly characterized. Coincidence? Hm!
Trying to establish a pattern based on @saracentury.bsky.social’s observation that the original Spider-woman and the Perez run of Wonder Woman are horror comics. Why would the world be filled with horrors for heroic women hmmmm… hmmmmmm…. Wonder what could be the point here……
