Miles, an Indigenous actor best known for her roles in “Northern Exposure,” “Smoke Signals,” “Wyvern” and “The Last of Us,” handed them her tribal ID from the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation in Oregon.

Yet, Miles recalled one agent calling it “fake.”

New: If you're queer, you know that the holidays can be rough. Maybe you have a bad relationship with your family and holidays carry painful memories. I spoke to LGBTQ+ Texans across the state about how they find community this time of year: www.chron.com/culture/arti...
Where can LGBTQ+ Texans go for Thanksgiving when home is off-limits?

Access journalism has got to die. Anonymous source rules have to go back to being only for the vulnerable. Cover how politicians are delivering/not delivering for the public or GTFO

I finally watched Bound and finally did a rewatch of La Mala Educacion. The former made me go full Tex Avery wolf in the first two minutes and the latter remains an incredible erotic-noir masterpiece that needs a blu-ray release immediately. ('Bound' is all those things and thank god it's in 4K.)

When we launched, it took weeks to even get @thebarbedwire.com indexed on Google search. Apple News verified us in April. Google News verified us last month.

Today, a story that we’ve spent weeks reporting and editing —because it felt really important — is on Apple News’ top stories.

It’s No. 4.

One thing I appreciate about everyone’s takes on Kiss of the Spider Woman is regardless if they loved it or hated it, almost everyone who has seen it was blown away by Tonatiuh and called him the best part of the movie. Let’s get those nominations going, Hollywood!
Did nobody see The Testament of Ann Lee??
Some of these nominations are deeply unserious. How is your movie going to bomb and get panned but because the actor’s a flavor of the month, they get a nomination? Annoying.

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."

They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.
