Julia Is Moisturized, Unbothered, Not Asking for Money

what a terrible loss his death was to poetry (and of course to his family and friends)

there is a big hollow place a generation wide in our arts

this is how much Trump et al. actually care about antisemitic hate crimes

so many things I need in that reel! 🤩

Elvira is one of the best ever at this stuff! #HorrorWatch

want to shout out @gmcgath.bsky.social who does this in New Hampshire and on his YouTube channel!

the Somerville Theatre has done some great silent screenings with live music as well, so Boston-area folks might want to keep an eye on their schedule

I hadn’t seen that thread, but had definitely picked up on your disdain for the posthumous sanctification of Navalny and distrust of Navalnya and your arguments are very compelling!

people engage in news and politics in such different ways!

I was young then but my Silent Generation parents were very politically active and avid news consumers, so I picked up a lot of what was going on

I still think “my hed is pastede on yey” sometimes

we’re watching the movie Lady Frankenstein, and the script is just that confusing

LJ really was a place for those multilayered memes that came out of postlore!

“awww, it’s just like Build-a-Bear,” says Elvira #HorrorWatch

how cute is this hairstyle and outfit on you? so glam!

(yes, I am shallow, I know you are there for intellectual pursuits)

the levels of incest and proxy incest in this are kind of unsettling tbh

“going to seduce the cognitively disabled servant, murder him, and then put my husband’s (who was my father’s BFF and assistant and on whom I had a longtime schoolgirl crush) brain into his super hot body”

or you’re just really cheap (or know people who are)

yes! #HorrorWatch

Hargitay’s honestly doing a decent job with this clichéd script

cemetery sexton was sure doing his best Pepperidge Farm Remembers bit #HorrorWatch

odd homage to the original film there #HorrorWatch

There's a hauntingly beautiful irony in these morons thinking that carefully crafted American hegemony was actually weak and woke, and they would be the ones who would do Power and Dominance properly, and immediately bringing everything crashing down

does the book Frankenstein not exist in this universe? or, for that matter, his grandfather’s diaries? because why so surprised Pikachu about how this is going? #HorrorWatch

relatable

also maybe it’s Ms. Loomer herself 🤔

Cotten always gives a strong performance no matter how mediocre the material, what a pro! #HorrorWatch

36 minutes but you can catch up easily: Frankenstein is a descendant of the original, lives in the 19th-century US, his daughter is a surgeon who wants to go into the family business, they’re working on a Creature with the help of some evil drunken henchmen and a sedulous assistant #HorrorWatch

yes, kind of like the intersection between the two with maybe a little Eydie Gormé thrown in

#HorrorWatch

this is the worst Take Your Daughter to Work Day #HorrorWatch

oh, d’oh, I lost track of what was what! thank you for the correction

a boatload of eyeliner wouldn’t go amiss, either? at least in her case #HorrorWatch

#HorrorWatch all a girl really wants is a chiffon negligee and a secret passage to the hidden evil laboratory

#HorrorWatch Mickey Hargitay (the captain who was yelling at henchman Lynch a few minutes ago) has a very Dave Bautista presence; it’s too bad he died so young

nice catch! #HorrorWatch

Cotten sells it even better than it deserves, as well #HorrorWatch

“money, Charles, it’s a miracle drug for people like {sneers} Lynch”

pretty good script shorthand for “villain who should die soon” I must say #HorrorWatch
