I really hate how dependent activism has become on social media. If you are like me and try to stay off ig etc as much as possible - let the one thing you do for Palestine be talking to your parents, grandparents, aunts, uncles etc. The mainstream media is sooo terrible and that is what the older generations are consuming. Talk to the older people in your life and make sure they have an accurate understanding of what is going on in Palestine.

If you’re from brooklyn or new york city or just moved here, i know, this is cliche. But i! Don’t! Care! The truffle popcorn is addicting, even if I'm farting for the rest of the movie, it’s worth it. Plus they have cute little trailers to gab about with your date or friend, but i also go alone because nobody tried to have small talk with you at the movies and you can just disassociate peacefully in blissful high-power air conditioning on a hot nyc summer day. They have guest curators on a monthly basis and do fun screenings of old flicks. Highly recommend it. Nitehawk > Alamo.

I have another indie theater that I prefer because it’s cozier, has better vibes, is much closer to me, and everybody who works there is genuinely passionate about film. It’s not really anything special visually but it’s a beautiful institution and it’s so fun to be there ❤️
But this one is an old art deco theatre designed by architect John Eberson (he designed Loew’s Paradise in the Bronx and the Paradise Theatre in Chicago)! It’s pretty run down/poorly managed and staffed but it’s a gorgeous building and definitely worth visiting. Not my photos but included for illustrative purposes!!

Again, I'm using this category as an umbrella so I can list my favorite movies that I think by watching will make everyone's life better or at least distract you from whatever bullshit is going on in your own life for a moment, and put a smile on your face. Maybe you'll even relate to what the characters in the films are going through and you'll feel a little bit less alone and it will change your life forever. These are my favorite movies that I watch over and over again: An Unmarried Woman, Swingers, Annie Hall, Broken English, Girlfriends. Last Days of Disco, and Hannah and Her Sisters. And one of my favorite theaters to watch movies in in New York City is Metrograph. A sanctuary. A safe haven. The programming is extraordinary. And they have a wonderful restaurant upstairs called The Commissary. Run don't walk.

See also: knob. Alternatively, for something not phallic related, I have been loving calling things I don’t like people doing nasty no matter the context.

Just watch it. Opened Letterboxd for the first time in ages just to log it and it wasn’t enough I need to scream it from every proverbial rooftop. I will be thinking about this film every day for a long, long time.

I feel like my mum named a baby and didn’t really think about me being an adult
I spelt my name differently for a whole year of school because someone else had the same name as me
I love names that you can nickname but mine can’t be
