Y’know, in all my time in the Chicago arthouse scene since 2016, I’ve not witnessed a SINGLE John Ford retrospective. There’s something a little saddening about that :(

SHE DID NOTHING WRONG

My friend Gloria once talked to him about plus-sized puppyplay <3

Sometimes I get worried about antibiotic resistance :(

I personally prefer Jersey Boys, but that’s just me.

Take Me To Church

I’ve had several loved ones truly fear for their lives because of this man. Being humiliated like this every single day for a lifetime would still be too kind to him for that.

Literally the goddess of my life. I don’t really stan anyone but her.

When my last girlfriend met my parents for the first time, she got into a long conversation with my mom trying to explain this guy to her. It was honestly a magical conversation to witness.

I just want my mommy to love me :(

Separate the artist (good) from the art (bad)

I thought it was engaging enough at the time?

LOSERS in other words

Basically what we’re gonna do is DANCE

That movie Bamboozled is pretty good

One day we will be able to all have stray animals live happily with us like the cats in Istanbul, but until then, I am VERY happy when I go to someone’s house and see a beautiful animal to show love to <3

I mean, at least we’re not banning BBW facesitting (yet)

I would fucking die for this man.

Human After All will always be their masterpiece <3

Anyone who invented ice cream must be pretty dope culturally

Fuck them kids

I have a lot of nasal and rectal bleeding, and I sometimes love making toilet art out of it in the style of Judy Chicago <3

It honestly should’ve stopped with Skinny Puppy. That was good enough.

The inside of my mind.

I like curves, what can I say?

BACK ROLLS NOT GENDER ROLES

One of the best things about my city <3

Not to kink-shame, but I never understood this one :/

:(

Da Bears

I wonder what it’s like to live on one of these

The worst invention in human history.

The few months I had a SIM-less iPhone 1st gen in spring 2010 were among the happiest times I ever had with a device <3 I just loaded up books on there from Gutenberg.org and took notes whenever I went <3 I also didn’t have ANY cell phone at the time, so I didn’t have to be distracted by that.

Sorta disappointed by his taste in DS games tbh

A movie theater staple that, strangely enough, often tastes its very best at home. Some cayenne and lemon juice are especially helpful <3

It’s really a shame how hard it is to find a GOOD buffet anywhere in the city :(

I like anything that makes women happy <3

When I was in fifth grade (fall 2004) I was asked to nominate someone for president, and my parents forced me to choose super-conspiratorial far-right then-senate nominee Alan Keyes. This would be normally very embarrassing, but I decided to have him run against “Puff Daddy” (who I guessed I assumed looked like the bad guy in Ghostbusters 2 just because of his name). So I guess I was ahead of my time.

The Zionist takeover makes me really sad :(

It’s like cumming from butt <3

I remember getting a call asking to give to the local police union, and I asked if they took brick donations.

Soft serve might be the greatest kind of ice cream tbh. Most of the rest of the menu is mid, but THAT SOFT SERVE

I like the TikTok happy remix from 2019 < e

:(

Even when i was anorexic I believed it eating it first. THIS is a future fatty mindset.

There’s something to the still image that captures a beauty that video can almost never have.

Quick: What is the acronym for Build-A-Bear Workshop?

Are there really many other histories that matter?

The most horrifying moment of Sherman’s March :(

Just the other day I was giggling about an RYMcomment I saw for “Rack City” a decade ago: “Visiting the strip club to find new stuff to log on this site”.

One of the most glorious things about this substance is how it is fundamentally queer, gradually changing form as you eat it. There’s almost even a sort of durational element to the process akin to a Morton Feldman piece.

“Colonel Sanders was my father and Ronald McDonald was my mother.” -My bigoted dad on his upbringing, possibly suggesting how he turned out the way he did.

Apparently in Houston it’s taboo to put ketchup on a burger. Well, as a Chicagoan, I’m telling all y’all to shut the fuck up

Art isn’t just about what’s added to the frame; it’s also about what’s removed.

There’s something really beautiful in the way that almost any housed person can call up a friend, ask them to bring over a bottle of wine, and with just a $4 bag of this stuff (and some cheese and sauce) can have a wonderful shared meal that can bring you closer to another human being <3

!!!!!!!!!!!

One of the greatest works of visual art of the twentieth century.

It’s hard to speak ill of your first love :(

I just wanna grill

The name above is a slur, but a slur for a FUCKING THING OF MAJESTY <3 (Just say fat)

“Cry Me a River” might be the greatest materially evil pop song of the 21st century

I was BORN HERE y’all

I used to be besties with one of these guys at my old apartment years ago. He’d greet me whenever I left during the day, and it kept me going as I put my life together <3

:(

I used to joke that his lifelong dream was to make Stuart Little 3, but now I realize he’s been so corrupted by fascism that he doesn’t even have the heart and whimsy to attempt something like that :/

Some chamomile with half-and-half is fucking feedee insomnia MAGIC

I am very much against the death penalty, but if some of us wanna die, AND were able to avoid the extreme austerity measures that pressure people to use things like MAID, this seems like among the easiest ways to do it?

I LIKE TO PARTYYYYG

Has stuff I strongly disagree with (what do you fucking MEAN there’s “nothing new under the sun” when the novel has barely been around for five centuries?), but it still is about as profound as Old Testament books go.

The meaning of life (at least when you can make vegan equivalents somehow affordable)

My life is a manga

:’(

The best Batman

I wonder what my favorite man that he dreams about at night is.

The scariest thing about this is that “only boring people are bored” also means that you’re BECOMING more boring every moment you fail to find something to do :(

Even on her deathbed she was able to make one more masterpiece in bringing Jesse and Celine together <3

Maybe I’m biased, but at least we have some sorta funny sayings, right?

THAT’S US ON THIS WEBSITE

Cute to oversee, scary to experience :(

The best thing to ever happen to twentieth century art.

I really like “Send It Up”.

“I didn’t realize she was autistic. She just seemed… giggly.” -My friend’s sister upon being asked how she didn’t realized I had autism

I hope he eventually got the estrogen he always needed <3

“Women have breasts. I eat turkey breast. Therefore, I eat women’s breasts.” -My friend Bobby Burke attempting a syllogism in sixth grade

They’re just like you and me. They just do things a bit differently.

Vanessa Carlton-Private Radio (2004)

I’ve never broken up with someone. I don’t like to think people are often being immoral when doing it, but it HURTS, dammit :(

My favorite thing about Facets and the Music Box now is that I can get THC soda there. I don’t get high much, but doing it before my friend’s movie is a great way to enjoy it and not have to worry about them no longer being my friend <3

My anorexia in middle school made me stop drinking it. This led me to stop growing taller, which my mom told me was “God punishing me for my sins”. BUT then I became a mythical 5’5” trans girl, so it all worked out in the end <3

Those DRUMS going into those SCREECHY GUITARS in “10,000 Years” <3

I don’t wanna be a killjoy, but I don’t like being drunk, and I don’t like driving. So those two things together are NOT FOR ME

Not enough weight gain :’(

R Mutt

Bell end

“Those red ones can fuck off”-The first girl I fell in love with to me at a coffee shop, June 2018

One of the best things about hydration is that you get to feel a full climax from this <3

I like to think, but sometimes I also like to do things with my thoughts. Being an artist can do this to you, y’know?

My mom has her picture taken with this guy, and when I saw that, I asked why she was willing to pose with someone who killed people. And then she said, “No Charli; my framed photo with Dick Cheney is across the hall”

The gay nineties

This is my friend Violet’s favorite show of all time <3

My favorite piece of set design equipment <3

A dangerous addiction to fall down as an artist, since it’s very lucky nobody will love your attempts as well as you do :’(

I wonder if Caveh will ever make an account here

My short film Mastalghia is basically a trans version of this song <3 https://vimeo.com/1151076895

She’s like the Contrapoints of pop music

It lets me listen to Histoire De Melody Nelson and not feel bad because I don’t understand the lyrics <3

And one day I went, “Fuck fish”

Me when I’m able to avoid logic: :D Me when I realize I’m just using the logic of late capitalism: :(

YouTubers are an extension of this crop

In Praise of Idleness

CAT

We are star stuff. You are the flesh of my flesh. What I love about you is very likely something you can find beautiful about me <3

Home projectors are honestly underrated, but I guess not everyone has the wall space.

Makes any girl 40% prettier <3

Cuffing season

Among the less sexy sex foods imo :/

My lifelong Linux distro <3

I’m scared to leave the house when it happens :(

NOT fun, but surprisingly useful for making jokes about with other disabled people?

Who else here because of Mimi?

I always found these guys boring?

I really don’t like this meme. It’s maybe less jingoistic than the “8-hour Albanian movie about war from the eye of the pigeon” or whatever, but the anti-intellectualism is still really tiring :/

Remember when we all showed up to that solo concert from 1983? That was a nice time we all had.

#belawasright Also, that Todd Solondz adaptation was sorta racist.

I remember in older high school when he replaced Olmert, whose name I thought was “Walmart”. Israeli really is a national based on nothing but the most meaningless consumerism after all.

She a gold digger

I’m gooder than you.

Favorite Onion Character <3

That magical elixir of dreams (and sometimes nightmares)

It’s not a thing. But when it IS a thing, it’s normally a good thing. (Unless it’s just used as an excuse to be transphobic or something when you yourself are white and don’t show up for any TWOC in your life. But then is it REALLY reverse racism?)

Oof

BEACHES REPRESENT

Apparently Film Crit Hulk LOVES drinking his own pee <3

They already PICKED a side, my friend; the side of being really, REALLY pretty and lovely to be around <3

Hey guys

My favorite codec <3

When I was a kid I thought about this as the “MILF Channel”, and I always loved that about it, because a MILF was what I always wanted to be. The very first Tori Amos song I heard was a live performance of “Precious Things” she did for the channel back in 2003, and that logo was a sign of QUALITY, dammit.

If we MUST labor, shouldn’t we do so amongst other wonderful comrades?

I only learned in the past couple months that legendary BBW culture and sexuality magazine Dimensions had a whole cover story eulogizing him in 1994 or so. Man of culture he sure must’ve been.

There’s something beautiful about being with a girl you like and watching them write down an idea for you on one of these <3

I once compared Bach to Lil B a decade ago. I didn’t mean it as a complement then, but I DEFINITELY do now

Chicago is one of the easiest places to enjoy this without breaking BDS <3

We must return to DUMBASS PROPERTY

The only reason it’s not 5 stars is the game it’s from :(

Back in high school, when I thought about my favorite things in the world, I realized that beverages might be my #1. Higher than movies, higher than music. Even higher than BBW PORN

Nothing from a bellybutton can be THAT bad

Sorry Michael, you know how I feel :(

Hope Sandoval, THERE IS STILL TIME to visit the White House and get her to transition <3

Just like weed and gay sex, legalization is the worst thing to have happened to something so wonderful

The memes were NOT worth it, but I guess we could’ve gotten this sort of extreme fascism WITHOUT the memes?

She honestly peeked in 2010, but DANG was that peak full of bangers.

I used to really like this Animexpansion story called “Flannery Takes A Break.” https://www.deviantart.com/g-nibbles/art/Flannery-takes-a-Break-Part-1-53496183

He grew up 20 minutes from me and has the same name as me. My mom still wishes I was more like him, but there’s a REASON I’m alive and his ass isn’t. (I’m glad he supported trans swers though.)

Mama Mia

I mean, that Clerks 2 scene was pretty funny I guess.

I hate that whenever I bring up a friend being from South Africa, I have to point out that they’re Black to keep everyone from thinking they’re demonic :(

Let me love youuuu

Some of them are fun enough if you get girly with it

I have been hooked on pushing these buttons before Letterboxd was even a thing :(

EARTH TO MIKA

The GOAT

There used to a funeral home near my house growing up called “Adolf”. That shows how conservative my upbringing was :(

It’s recently been decent comfort music for me. Not very challenging and makes me laugh <3 I especially love that song “Eulogy”

“If dancing aspires to be music, then music aspires to be running” -Ben Ratliff, Run the Song: Writing About Running About Listening

I quit it in 2022 so I could finally get on HRT. I’m okay with liver failure, but nobody DARES to get in the way of my tiddies. (Apparently only pills are affected? Oh well. I don’t like hangovers)

I didn’t start it until half a decade out :(

White genocide’s alright I guess

“Don’t Make Me a Target”

I once sampled one of the songs from the 1998 computer game for my track “Digital Mastering” from 2012. It might be the best song I ever made https://cluckyrecords.bandcamp.com/track/digital-mastering

Took on a HUGE improvement when I learned you can import them into both iMovie and FCP after all <3

Legendary RYM user portraits called me a “computer illiterate” for struggling to use it back in 2016 :(

One of the most beautiful works of art I ever experienced in my life. I hope I can make something as beautiful someday

Would be rated a LOT higher if it didn’t traumatize me because of my name growing up :(

Great for when you want something crispy without caffeine <3

It meeeeeee
