That was the first R-rated movie I ever snuck into, since all my high school senior friends were going, & I was just a sophomore....so they bought their tickets (at the LB Marketplace cinema) and one of them came back out and gave me one of their tickets, so I could sneak in to see it with them.

Nicola Scott deserves a Pulitzer for these illustrations of our heroes through the years.

I think they were even in costume/character. The story goes, we were so terrified, we couldn't stop crying at the sight of them!

Sadly, there's no photographic evidence of this, but our Aunt Chachy (who was literally *obsessed* with Star Trek, even doodling "Mrs. Spock" all throughout her high school binders), took your oldest brother Gus and me as babies to meet Capt. Kirk and Mr. Spock at a fan meet & greet in the late 60s!

Just yesterday a queen came up to me at Pride and presented her wrist and said "Touch this skin, darling, touch ALL of this skin!" It gave me hope for humanity.

I'm so ready for this Silver Age of superhero films. Despite being a person of a certain age, who began reading comics at the dawn of the Bronze Age, and at the time cringing a bit at the silliness of so many Silver Age tropes, I think it's time to have more escapism, hope, & bright color!

Hard to tell (other than the red cape) but Sonny was playing Superman, and Don Adams (of "Get Smart!" fame) was Batman!

Even as an older lady (in her mid-60's at this point), she still was effortlessly cool in her sunglasses (indoors, mind you) and jaunty beret.

I assume the same thing, that if they're promoting these four as the "four pillars," that a Wonder Woman movie can't be far behind.

That station wagon became the car I was given to drive when I turned 16, and because of its dingy color, was dubbed "Tusky, The Elephant Car" by my friends!

One of the first movies I remember seeing, at the drive-in with Mama & Papa, and Gussy....in the back of our old 1971 Ford Esquire station wagon.

I never cared for her as Storm (I always thought it should've been someone with the exotic regal bearing of Iman, or even the haughty fierceness of Grace Jones). But I agree: she's one of the OG's. She absolutely should come back with the others. (and maybe this script will treat her better.)

Suzie should've done what Alyssa Edwards did as Mommie Dearest. Just repeat a bunch of Ellen's lines as Audrey from Little Shop of Horrors. When Ru asked where she was from, why didn't she say "Skid Row?!?" One of her answers should've been "Somewhere that's green!"
David Alexander Díaz (@cuapisf.bsky.social) reply parent
I was suprised (underwhelmed) by her Ellen Greene Snatch Game. I think she thought it would be like Jinkx's Little Edie, taking a niche character that has a cult following. Unfortunately, even though her characterization was good...it just wasn't funny. But that Iron Maiden look was FASHION!

If JKR publicly targeted a racial minority, or disabled folks, or literally anyone else, there’s no way HBO would say “she has a right to express her personal views” and keep working with her. It’s still ok to dehumanize trans people and just have it be an opinion one can have with no repercussions.

What I keep hearing from new folks to Bluesky is to block immediately, and drain those losers of the oxygen (attention) they crave.

Quote this with who you would be in STAR TREK 🖖 Yeoman Janice Rand: Bleached-blond, wanna-be "sexy," sweet but not terribly bright, always pining for the wrong guy. Later develops a substance use problem, but eventually comes out the other side of it. Prone to ridiculous hairstyles and outfits.

I would like to speak up today for the trans community. You see, I know a bit of what it’s like to be politically scapegoated. When Japan attacked Pearl Harbor in 1941, suddenly anyone in America who had any amount of Japanese ancestry became suspect. Politicians preyed upon ignorance and fear. /1
