Happy Pride
edge of tomorrow (2014) is like hey what if we sent our social media manager on the front lines and what if it was tom cruise
i listen to this podcast by two priests who talk about what life as a priest is like because I find their stories interesting, and one of the best moments was when the younger priest, baby priest we shall call him, absolutely lost it on the podcast because he had been preaching, then he saw someone do a full body sigh, shoulders up and down, then look at their watch, and then shoot baby priest a dirty look. Because priests are human too, this priest found it irritating on a human level, which, okay, I can see that--and then, he spent several minutes vehemently (and jokingly, but also, vehemently) proposing that Catholicism should update its rules so if anyone does that, the priest is allowed to come down from the altar and challenge the person to hand-to-hand combat. He argued that more people would come back to church if there was a chance of seeing the priest getting in a fistfight and in fact they might go to church multiple times a day. He stubbornly refused to allow exemptions for little old ladies. he was fully and passionately committed to the idea of Catholicism allowing priests to fistfight parishioners in the middle of mass, and I'm going to say it: i think he was right
what are some movies you know too much about?
writer and director paul thomas anderson specifically wrote the part of frank tj mackey in MAGNOLIA (1999) for tom cruise after tom loved PTA’s 1997 film BOOGIE NIGHTS so much he called him to congratulate him on it (which PTA has said was like getting a call from the president of the united states of movies) and invited him to visit the set of EYES WIDE SHUT in england. there they struck up a friendship and PTA promised to write tom a part in his next film. six months later tom was still shooting EWS but PTA sent him the script for MAGNOLIA and the part of mackey, a manic motivational speaker and misogynistic pick up artist with a deep well of childhood trauma and daddy issues. the role of tom’s estranged father, earl partridge played by jason robards in his final film, is a mix of both PTA’s father and tom’s — both had lost their fathers at a young age to cancer (PTA in 1997 when he was 26 and tom in 1983 when he was 21) and both of whom had complicated relationships with their fathers. like earl, PTA’s father was a television producer and the voice of the abc network for decades who put his work first. like earl, tom’ss father was an abusive alcoholic who abandoned tom (and his sisters) when he was 12 and whom he saw once in the intervening years before his death upon which he allowed his children to visit him one last time. the scene in MAGNOLIA where frank confronts earl as he dies is supposed to end with frank telling earl that he won’t cry for him but PTA didn’t feel like that was enough so he asked tom to tap into his feelings over losing his father, first to abandonment and then to death, for the next take. frank’s breakdown where he sobs and rages at earl “don't go away, you fucking asshole, don't go away” over and over was improvised by tom and was so raw and moving that philip seymour hoffman, who plays earl’s nurse, said that when you see him in the background of that scene his tears are real and an actual emotional response to tom’s performance.
This was back in my activity and it reminded me of a bit from the chapter on Magnolia in the Cahiers du Cinema book on Tom Cruise and his career. In discussing the level of input Cruise had in Mackey, it contrasts how the scene with Cruise and Robards was written originally by Anderson and the final version performed by Cruise in the film:
The difference between the two speeches is stark. The original is a speech written by a son who was grieving the fresh loss of a father with whom he may have had a complicated relationship but whom he ultimately loved and was loved by in return. The other is from a son whose father belittled and bullied and abused him, who called him horrible things as he beat him, but was still his father and his death—as the loss of a parent always is, especially at a young age, even a bad one—was still awful and destabilizing. Two sons. Two speeches.
In fifth grade a boy tried to impress me by swallowing a whole tadpole live and I punched him so hard that he puked and the tadpole was fine.
I kept it in a terrarium and it became a normal 🐸 despite everything. About a year afterward (I thought) it died, so I sadly put it in a shoebox in the shed until the ground thawed enough for a proper funeral but when that day came I opened the box and the frog was fine.
This is funnier than anything I have ever said.

I have let men at work run straight in to me. I'm not moving over!
Upgrade: try this on a downtown street while using a knee scooter because of a broken bone. Truly astonishing how many men won’t move? including one who was like “oh I thought you’d go there?” as he gestured to some STAIRS beside me.
one of the top 10 peter jackson's creative choices was seeing the one (1) sentence about the beacons being lit in RotK and going "I'm going to film a scene that is so absolutely iconic based on this"

also I promise this is unrelated to anything else I've been posting about but like. We're not doing the "rainbow capitalism" complaint this year. Sorry. I know pitching this particular hissy fit is really important to some of you. But years when the conservative movement du jour is to have a literally identical tantrum about any company that's putting rainbows on drink cans or reusable grocery bags because they view that as "supporting groomers and pedophiles," we don't get to throw fuel on that fire. Even if you disagree with the fire on an ideological level, it doesn't matter to the fire! This year, feel however you want to feel about any given company making their logo into a rainbow flag, but I promise the "boycott Anheuser Busch because they're supporting Deviants by making our beer gay" people do not give a shit whether you're supporting their cause from a gay standpoint or a homophobic one, they just care about the net result, which is that by getting outwardly mad about this, you are lending them support
Just because it’s better than the alternative doesn’t make it good lmao. You think they really care about us? Fucking dumbass.
So like. I don't give a shit if they actually care lol. But when one side is saying "it's okay to be gay" through gritted teeth and the other side is saying "I want to kill this guy and anyone else who says, for any reason, that it's okay to be gay" with a smile on their face and a gun in their hand, not only am I not going to complain about the first person's begrudging support, I'm definitely not going to start handing fresh ammo to the second person and cheering them on for Shutting Down The Phony!
Because, again, guess what: to the right wing, there isn't a difference between someone who says "happy pride" because they want to make a dollar and someone who says "happy pride" because they actually care about gay people. Whether or not you're actually a witch doesn't matter, to the stake they're burning you at.
disliking a character not because I actually find them annoying or whatever but because the people who like that character are insufferable
i went to a tiny counterserve diner once and accidentally poured sugar instead of salt all over my hashbrowns and was eating them sadly anyways. the waitress took them away and started making me another one and I tried to protest, but she just snorted and said "we're not catholic here". now every time i'm doing something painful out of obligation i think about how that is not repenting, this body is not a catholic establishment, there is no nobility in suffering.
Iceman: I trust Maverick.
Slider: You think he knows what he’s doing?
Iceman: I wouldn't go that far.
