I read a lot of writing about movies and the one that hit me hardest and stuck with me is this one. It sums up the horrors of 2024 beautifully.
I didn't expect a review of the extreme gore movie Terrifier 3 to sum up how it feels to have witnessed a year-long genocide & then see fascism take over the US. @mangiotto.bsky.social has written something extraordinary here.

Pay attention to the 1530s if you're interested in astrological cycles. 1533 was a year when Neptune moved from Pisces to Aries, and Pluto had just moved into Aquarius. Exactly like 2025.
I don't see many long threads on here, but I'll try one - it's about Holbein's Ambassadors, his 1533 masterpiece in the National Gallery. It's often presented as a great mystery, but I think once we understand the circumstances in which it was made, its meaning becomes clearer.

Minor mental breakdown because I used my morning toner instead of my evening toner during my nighttime skincare routine. Being in your 30s is wild.
