Tim Curry and Dolly Parton have taught us not only that you should be bigger, weirder, gayer, and freakier, but also that those qualities are what people will love about you. The things that make you strange and amazing are the things that will resonate with other strange and amazing people

Dolly Parton rose from poverty to stardom. She gave $500 to every student in her hometown who finished high school; she built hospitals & bald eagle preserves; her Imagination Library has gifted 300 million books to children. Roger Ebert met her and came away thinking she was a literal angel. RIP.

“In Dallas for the premier of '9 to 5', I had an uncanny experience, and on the plane home to Chicago I confessed it to Siskel: I had been granted a private half hour with Dolly Parton, and as we spoke I was filled with a strange ethereal grace. This was not spiritual, nor was it sexual. It was healing and comforting. Gene listened and said, "Roger, I felt the exact same thing during my interview with her." We looked at each other. What did this mean? Neither one of us ever felt that feeling again. From time to time we would refer to it in wonder.”

I’m a transgender Brit and I have this to say to the British actors happily joining the trans-hating money train: Fuck off you greedy, two-faced, soggy biscuit tossers. Take your wands and your wizard hats and stick them up your arse. I hope a seagull eats your chips and then shits on your heads.

quickly made up some posters you can print! i choose to believe that most HP fans are ignorant about jo rowling's hatred and if educated, would choose better. i don't think this education can be stretched further online. it's up to us to share our knowledge irl. left is letter, right is A4

handwritten/handwriting font black and white poster that says
"HARRY POTTER FUNDS TRANSPHOBIA. If you support the new HP show, you are directly harming trans people and helping destroy ALL of our human rights. J.K. Rowling hates trans people and funds efforts to criminalize our existence." with a QR code to an advocate article about it. 8.5x11", free to print and distribute

Love this from Guillermo del Toro

“Be kind, be involved, believe in your art,” he said. “At a time when people tell you art is not important, that is always the prelude to fascism. When they tell you it doesn’t matter, when they tell you a fucking app can do art you say, if it’s that important, why the fuck do they want it so bad? The answer is because they think they can debase everything that makes us a little better, a little more human. And that, in my book, and in my life, includes monsters.”

Kessandra is a dark-skinned woman with her braided hair in a neat bun; she wears military uniform with a white jacket and beret, and dark pants. In her right hand she holds an elegantly designed gun. The two are standing on the stairs of a domed gloomy hall.

5. "It's Not A Cult" by Joey Batey Written like a found footage movie, this book digs its claws into you and keeps you wondering what the next big twist is going to be. You know it's coming and you likely know what it might look like, but it'll still shock you #booksky #top10books2025 #itsnotacult

8. "The Electric State" by Simon Stålenhag Also beautifully illustrated, tonally very different from the Netflix movie adaptation, just so you're aware, with a slow, quiet and very muted story that is told both by the text and the illustrations. Loved it. #booksky #top10books2025 #theelectricstate

I think we really should stop using antifa and just fully say anti-fascist and get them saying they are against anti fascism. Using antifa is giving them some distance and I genuinely think some of their base don’t even know that’s what it stands for.
