At this point I do sincerely believe this anti phone and social media drive is rooted in the "social contagion" idea of being trans. They do not think she died because she used her phone, they think she died because people in her phone convinced her she was a girl.
Phones did not murder Brianna Ghey in cold blood.

there's a moment in PARADISE LOST where Satan arrives in Eden and realizes Hell isn't a place; it's a thing he carries within him and it'll follow him wherever he goes. and i think about that when i see these awful rich men whose monstrous wealth has enriched them not at all

A fashion youtuber I watch was trying to buy an egl coord off facebook and searched 'lolita fashion' and now her account is permabanned for looking up csa. It's the livejournal apocalypse that led to ao3 being created all over again.

This is a setlist from when MCR played in the Tenderloin in San Francisco in 2008. One of my closest highschool friends had just, how do the kids put it, unalived herself and I'd run away to the United States to follow MCR on tour to cope, instead of going to therapy like a normal person.

Actually, Victor Frankenstein never finished med school. Doctor Frankenstein is his creation, Adam Frankenstein, who went on to earn a PhD in women's studies.

Sometimes I wonder if our many years of jokes about writers hating writing and doing anything but writing, etc, have convinced people that the writing part is the hurdle and the goal is just to have a thing in hand. But I am here to tell you: the writing is the best part. The act is the thing.

I did love the movie, but I agree with the analysis here that it suffers from being fannish -- it reminded me of Jackson's King Kong or Luhrman's Gatsby (though I think it's a better movie than either of those). Letting a text's biggest fan adapt it has a significant downside.
I reviewed the muddled mess that is Guillermo del Toro's FRANKENSTEIN. Beautifully lit but poorly framed, exquisitely costumed but burdened by shaky CGI, and above all, a defanged and sentimentalized adaptation of Shelley's novel.

The best possible interpretation of Mr. Green is that he actually is gay and is in a lavender marriage and is using “I’m gay and have to keep it secret or risk losing my job” as his “false” cover story for his FBI work.
Iconic final lines of cinema like, "I'm gonna go home and sleep with my wife!"
