I know what a champ.

Il diavolo in convento (1899) Georges Méliès YouTube video by Iconauta

You think Méliès knew the kid at the bottom right was going to do that? The shocking incident occurs at the 1 min 30 sec mark. Not for the faint of heart #notclickbait

The mental gymnastics are almost impressive, but they can’t keep it up. I can’t wait for the Knowledge Fight episode when Alex finally cracks. I think he’s close.

Without downloading any new pics, describe your gender.

Can not agree more with that comment. I want to show it to everyone I know. Especially my mum, who's struggling to come to terms with ageing. I think it will be a great comfort.

Oh and don’t watch the trailer it’s extremely misleading.

The Company of Strangers (1990) A busload of women become stranded in an isolated part of the Canadian countryside. As they await rescue, they reflect on their lives through a mostly ad-libbed script.

This was delightful. It's on Tubi (under the title STRANGERS IN GOOD COMPANY) and Kanopy.

That's been on my list for ages I should get to it.

Sure thing, I'll have a look through my letterboxd.

Oof, I hadn't seen that interview before. Insufferable.

Such a punchable face.

‘Lack of class’: Quentin Tarantino hits back at Rosanna Arquette over Pulp Fiction N-word criticism Director rounds on actor, who acted in the cult film, saying he feels disrespected, and claiming cynical reasons behind her recent comments

What’s “limpest dick in the world” then? A constructive critique?
Then again, maybe I’m being unfair, he did say “esprit de corps” and that is the classiest shit I’ve ever heard. À la mode, oui?

Fairly low quality photo of Catherine Deneuve, taken maybe 20-30 years ago, lying on her side in the grass, smiling down at a pair of mating toads.

Psst, hey man, wanna see a picture of two toads boinking in front of Catherine Deneuve?

Guy Maddin - Spanky: To the Pier and Back YouTube video by Evan Johnson

In 2008, for his last day on earth, Guy Maddin filmed his pug Spanky taking a walk to the lake.

4. “Naked ladies on the wall
Because they belong there.”

5. “She tells you you're not good enough, not rich enough. Not man enough, not fast enough, you don't joke enough.
Because you just do not takе coke enough.”

2. In one song he addresses a woman by saying “I don’t like you” ad infinitum.
3. At one point he calls a woman his “mattress mistress”.

1. Morrissey subscribes to a conspiracy theory that the French government were behind the Notre Dame fire: “Notre Dame, we know who tried to kill you. Notre-Dame, we will not be silent.”

Because I’m a glutton for punishment, I looked up the lyrics to Morrissey’s heinously titled new album ‘Make-up is a Lie’ and learned a lot of cool stuff!

Sorry all, I know I'm preaching to the choir, but i'm just so tired.

4. And I think 'dead' is exactly what Uta wants.

3. Uta says late diagnosed 'young women' without intellectual disability but could be treated better via other methods.

Should we have another round of TMS Uta? Have some CBT and be ignored by the system even more than we already are until we die? Most of us die young btw.

2." people still hang on to the idea that there is something that unites all the people who are diagnosed as autistic. I don’t believe that any more."
Yes, they're called 'traits' and you need a lot of them to receive a diagnosis. No two autistics are alike, but they are united by many factors.

THREAD
1. "We’re all neurodiverse; we can accept this because all our brains are different."
Yes, everyone is neurodiverse. But 'neurodivergence' is an umbrella term for several developmental disabilities which each have their own spectrum and multiple diagnoses need also be taken into account.

I am profoundly happy to be living in a time awash in loose-limbed weird fiction that fucks, kills, and eats.
