#SaveSpeech

if you've seen a video going around of Epstein survivors talking about their abuse, you need to be aware that video is promoting World-Without-Exploitation, an organization whose website supports legislation like KOSA, and advocates for the "Nordic model"

they are not your allies.

I finished 1972

Few Leader Ladies

I start on 1985 tomorrow

There are only 86 films and I’m hoping I’ll luck out
Other Leader Lady/AAP news:

I’m now 15 films from completing 1972

Since a bunch of the Leader Ladies on my list are from the 80s (the tube top Leader Ladies and the Movielab girls) I’m tempted to jump ahead to 1985 and alternate years until I have to finish this

Tom Juarez hosting a 1992 syndicated Night Flight bit from a Sherman Oaks hipster boutique, and I can *smell* this image.

(Mothballs, gently decaying fabric, Marlboro Lights)

I miss that indie-shabby ecosphere.

@thatweissguy.bsky.social I think you would enjoy this week’s Drinks With Broads
Open the Sears Christmas Catalog, and Eyeball the New Met Gala Theme
One of them involves ventriloquists.

Doctor here— normal brain scans do not have unidentifiable regions that may be attributed to a parasitic infection.

Hope that clears that up.

In one of my astrophoto groups, a guy posted a photo that shows some non-celestial stuff in it and someone said it’s satellite constellations and another person said that astronomers really hate those and several men have weighed in to say actually astronomers think they’re fine

Me: WE DO NOT

an incredible thing just happened to me: my vet has added an indoor-outdoor pigeon to its family, his name is papi chulo and when I was taking pictures of him outside … he perched on my head. I have never been so delighted in all my life!!!

In December 1974, you could conceivably see Laurence Olivier, Catherine Deneuve, Linda Lovelace, and Farrah Fawcett all during your commercial break. Good times...

Just imagine if they woulda kept the original title for "McCabe & Mrs. Miller" - “The Presbyterian Church Wager” Yikes! Here's a pre-release poster for it from 1971.

ME: I’m feeling burned out on the search for Leader Ladies, maybe I should stop and let WH work with what I have

THANK YOU this was a huge sticking point for me with the new trailer
When people say that Wuthering Heights doesn't have anything to do with race or that no film has engaged with race, what they mean is that for them Romani people do not count and they also haven't been paying attention. I'm going to share a little material from a recent talk. Content note: racism 1/
