Today I learned about a man who accused his wife of cheating bc their child didn't share his DNA. Unbeknownst to him, he was a twin who had absorbed his sibling in utero. Enough of his absorbed twin's sperm was present for it to be the father and *him* to be the uncle. A chimera. Isn't that wild?

A very important 🧵
It's important to note that this means that only 8% of the top 100 GROSSING films are directed by women. It doesn't mean that 92% of all films are directed by men. It means the films by women are not making as much money. But the directors are there and making films.
The annual study had some blistering conclusions and observations this year, as Paramount Pictures, Warner Bros. and Lionsgate did not hire a single woman director for films included in the study in 2025.

Don't ask how I know, but X users love to shit on Bluesky, and the worst people you know repost because they're ~so edgy~ or something. And yet, I have a feeling that plenty of people here don't about them at all. That makes me happy.

Not standing up for yourself—yes, even in online spaces—is out for 2026. I don’t deserve to be treated badly, and neither do you. You deserve to defend yourself, and to be defended by friends, and you deserve to let go, step away, and start over if you need to. ♥️

When Rob Reiner was on his all-time epic run at the start of his career, he had an opportunity to read a script that was looking for a production partner, and he lost his mind for it. He decided Castle Rock had to have it, no matter what.

Being a grown up, I've deduced, means straining a muscle in your body, mostly healing, then immediately straining another muscle in a completely different area of your body - over and over and over again.

It hurt a little bit to write this one because I absolutely loved Terence Stamp. I watched a bunch of his movies again before writing it and was struck by how contemporary even the early performances seem. Less was more with him.
Remembering the legendary ‘Superman’ and ‘Priscilla, Queen of the Desert’ actor, who died this week at 87.
