You’ve probably seen this in the other places I’ve shared it, but I’m bringing back my old music blog. I’m working on lining up some interviews with artists and musicians and helping arrange a show at Oxbow in Portland. More to come! Most stuff will be over on factoryportland.com and Instagram.

I know awards shows suck, but they exist, so, therefore, I'll comment on them. I'm about 2/3 of the way into "Emilia Perez," and it's not better than Wicked or The Substance. It would also have been better without the music, although its trans representation would still be dated.

@legialerts.org is an extremely important account to follow if you care at all about rights in The US. While its account name suggests a focus on LGBTQ+ rights, it covers a lot more, too.

I recently watched Alice Maio Mackay’s “Carnage for Christmas” (big fan of Jeremy Moineau) and “The People’s Joker” by @veradrew22.bsky.social. Both are low budget films by filmmakers who are trans and show you can tell an effective story if you’re passionate, creative, and resourceful!

Having an unintentional semi-related double feature… Cassavetes's "Opening Night" and "Smile 2." A celebrity witnesses a car accident, sees dead people, struggles with sobriety and mental illness, and preps for their opening night of their play/tour.

Lately, I've been watching John Cassavetes's films. So far, I've seen "A Woman Under the Influence," "Faces," "The Killing of Chinese Bookie," "Opening Night," and now "Husbands." (I saw "Shadows" back in college). Let me just say… I get it.

The NYPD finally have a usable image of the UnitedHealthcare CEO suspect without a mask, CNN reports.
Police were able to pull the image from surveillance footage at a hostel on 103rd and Amsterdam Avenue in Manhattan, law enforcement sources say. www.newsweek.com/brian-thomps...

I looked at the MyPillow website yesterday because it was pointed out they're selling pillows for $14.88. I wanted to confirm they were actually doing this since 1488 is a Nazi-connected number (they were). I've received four of their emails to my work email in the last 24 hours without signing up!

There are some things I really liked stylistically about Apartment 7A. It did help to go back and look at Rosemary’s Baby. The thing I find confusing is why they went to the trouble of recreating so much, but missing the mark with things like clothing, hair, and makeup.

It really is something that the My Pillow guy is selling his pillows for $14.88 on conservative news networks.
Wonder why that price, specifically. 🤔
