Problem Child | Eli Cugini Pixar isn’t just dithering about diversity—it has become visibly scared of children themselves.

very excited for this to be out in the world: i wrote about repressed queerness in Elio, child surveillance in Inside Out 2, the post-Lasseter crisis, and the figure of the child in Pixar for The Baffler

this stuff sucks but even more alarming is anyone thinking The Great Gatsby is a difficult book. It’s great but also very accessible! We read this in fuckin 9th grade cmon

That’s right

I had no idea what she even looked like until If I Had Legs I’d Kick You came out

As far as I know Wolk is not actually a right-wing psycho like the Red Scare ladies

let’s fuckin goooooooo

Mulcahy hive 4 ever

She came out of the whole Dimes Square scene, right? I think people are pretty wary of that stuff and all the Thiel dark money astroturfing

I’ve seen Woo’s The Killer twice with big audiences and each time they roared with laughter at the ending. One of the great romantic tragedies of our time and they just thought it was hilarious 😕

oh my god ???

the seams start to show in Scream 3, but the sequence where Sidney wanders into the studio replica of her home from part 1 and physically enters into a simulacrum of her trauma is one of Craven’s greatest set pieces. A wild ouroboros of collapsing realities

they’re employing all sorts of dark magik to keep McCaffrey healthy next year

oof lol

I love Mike Evans but giving a big chunk of money to an often injured 32 year old receiver seems like bad business

oh hell yeah this lil guy just showed up (2nd photo for size reference, fits in your pocket!)

An Iranian girl, about seven years old, standing on a bus. She's holding her bookbag, and her left arm is in a sling.

My film rec for everyone now is Jafar Panahi's THE MIRROR (1997). A story about a schoolgirl on her way home. At one point, a change occurs (which I won't spoil) showing the girl is bigger than the film around her, with a life richer and more mysterious than anything a mere filmmaker could dream up.

Few voices in the culture and media landscape are irreplaceable. MZS is irreplaceable. Not just a clever, cutting, and insightful critic, but a champion of other writers and artists in so many ways big and small.

Do yourself a favor: buy from his bookstore. Buy a lot. Read, read, read: mzs.press
