this "negative" review (https://www.the-independent.com/arts-entertainment/films/reviews/frankenstein-review-guillermo-del-toro-venice-b2816625.html) of guillermo del toro's upcoming frankenstein movie is everything to me
"The Mexican director has chosen to emphasise the romanticism at the expense of the horror. Elordi plays the creature as a misunderstood, James Dean-like outsider with Oedipal issues rather than as an agent of evil and chaos. Even if his face and torso are latticed with suitably grotesque scars, staples and stitches, he is not only the most sympathetic character in the movie but the best-looking one too. It’s left to Oscar Isaac to provide the real villainy as the brilliant but egomaniacal scientist, Victor Frankenstein..."
HELLO YES IT'S ME, MARY SHELLEY CALLING, JUST WANTED TO ASK IF YOU'VE EVER SEEN A GUILLERMO DEL TORO MOVIE OR... I DON'T KNOW... READ MY BOOK? source

you should oppose genocide because it's genocide. that's it. that should be enough. you should be against people being murdered, you should be against people being persecuted and ethnically cleansed and displaced and starved and terrorised and tortured, physically, mentally, sexually or reproductively on the basis of their nationality, race, ethnicity or religion because it's wrong. genocide is horrific. genocide is inexcusable and that should be enough for you to oppose it. source

We built a calculator that doesn't work, but don't worry, it's also a plagiarism machine that will tell you to kill yourself. It runs on the world's oceans and costs 10 trillion dollars. source

Can I tell you how emotional and beautiful it is that this will be held in the city I was born and raised in?! 🥹😭🩷 Santa Ana, CA📍✊🏽
Y’all— the feedback I get CONSISTENTLY is that this is not just a training, this is a HEALING & FUELING EXPERIENCE that practitioners can build on in the EMBODIMENT of a paradigm that RE-HUMANIZES the Latine community. And IFFFFF!!!! we’re people who care about our comunidad, and all communities of the Global Majority, because we are FROM these communities— then you know it will be that much transformative. We will be integrating, not just learning. We will be connecting with ourselves, not just others. And white folks, you’re absolutely welcome to join. Required, even 😉
I don’t know when we will have this experience locally again. Hopefully many more times, but I’d love for you to be a part of the inaugural 2-day in-person experience. (We’ve been running it virtually since 2021!!) source
