I wrote stories from the time I was a little girl, but I didn't want to be a writer. I wanted to be an actress. I didn't realize then that it's the same impulse. It's make-believe. It's performance. The only difference being that a writer can do it all alone.

you could perhaps assume from the new critical framing of m night shyamalan’s recent career that he has made some concerted effort to win people back around but I find it far more inspiring that he has quite literally just remained himself and waited for everyone else to catch up

I know Biden pulling out of the US presidential race is big news but I can’t stop thinking about how an asparagus fortune teller prediction on Jeremy Vine could be right.

who remembers the devastating Nicest Thing by Kate Nash

[James Greig @jamesdgreig]

If I was “gender-critical” I wouldn’t trust Wes Streeting either. His newfound support for their cause is just as shallow, cynical and disingenuous as his support for trans rights was, and he will abandon it the second it’s no longer politically expedient

[Mollie Goodfellow @hansmollman]

Glad that while the country is crumbling around us we’re taking the time to *checks notes* make life hard for trans people
