Plz donate to Muscle’s stretch goal and maybe I’ll get to run the new print! (I ran the old one a couple years ago and it was awesome but it had the wrong soundtrack)
Oof if you only knew how formative the 1998 Merlin miniseries was for me, I wore those tapes out, so weirdly the Neill performance most stamped onto my brain ❤️
Doing some apartment organization/cleaning in anticipation of my mom visiting soon and I just got caught up smiling at my fridge covered with gifts and postcards from friends and family, mementos from places I’ve been, and general reminders of love in my life. If you don’t do this you should!
Ran a beautifully magenta print of Drunken Tai Chi today and enjoyed young Donnie Yen showing off his b-boy and miming skills on top of his martial arts 💕💜💕
Oh also: interesting leader lady spotted on that tech print of Alfie! I love her hairstyle. And then on one reel she’s posing slightly differently but what’s bizarre is she takes up two frames, don’t think I’ve seen that before.
Running a pretty nice original technicolor print of Alfie tomorrow but it’s got these very over the top scratched-in cues and I’m always like ok, I can see you, why are you being so extra
Back on my Bollywood kick, checking out the 1980 movie that served as the main inspiration for Farah Khan's Om Shanti Om and was soon intrigued to see someone credited for "Thrills" which bodes quite well I think.

Fave first-time watches in June: Backrooms Twice as Nice The Fate of Lee Khan Lost Ladies Queens of Drama The City Girl Plain Clothes Berlin Express Bitter Rice Diary for My Lovers Ritual in Transfigured Time Mare’s Nest Forbidden Fruits Disclosure Day
Prepping for a private commission related to one of my fave movies of the year and def one of the weirdest, I'm still so impressed they pulled it off tbh
Tonight at work I’m reminded of my instinctive love for Roland Emmerich’s Stargate, a movie that fucking bangs actually
My upstairs neighbor was kindly giving out floral arrangements from her wedding this weekend and I was beyond psyched to finally use this vase I got at a yard sale over a year ago, rounding out my record shelf tableau 💐
Genuinely not sure if this is anonymous abstract art or just residual paint behind where there’d usually be a sign or advertisement but I like it
FINALLY! THE NEW ZINE! HERE SHE IS PLEASE SAY HELLO! www.etsy.com/listing/4526...
I’m in charge of all the Monday night Kurt Russell/Jodie Foster double features for several weeks and I’m taking the responsibility v seriously 🎞️🎞️
Vending at the Brookline Queer Zine Fest today at the Brookline Village Library! Good vibes, good folks, come on downnnnn
The thing about The Shining is every changeover cue is placed at a banger moment 🤘🤘
oh oh ok things are happening, we're so close to being ready to print, mostly just proofreading and formatting left to do but I gotta pause so I can go be a podcast guest, sigh
They’ve long wanted a sort of simplified black and white version of this tapestry, and we actually got to see it irl together last year at a small Carrington exhibit that came to the Rose. I made a black line drawing that leaves out the hind legs so it’s like, fully encased by the crescent
