Wanting Without Shame: Cozy-Gothic, Consent-Forward Vampire Love Story. Beau and the Blood out now!
Make tea. Silence your phone. Read the first chapter with the porch light on, then let the house darken around you. Notice how the rooms respond—not with jump scares, but with a quiet leveling when someone says a true thing out loud. Watch two men ask each other for what they need and hear yes…

Clueless: Sustainable, Vegan, and Still Totally Clueless
It’s 2025, and Hollywood has decided that what we all desperately need — in between political purges, climate collapse, and AI that accidentally tells the truth — is a sequel series to Clueless. Yes, that Clueless. The film that gave us plaid skirts, “as if,” and a generation of women who briefly thought a yellow

War of the Worlds (2025): When Aliens Invade… and So Does Amazon
So here we are. A film with the audacity to modernize a classic through PowerPoint-esque visuals, a nihilistic ad for Amazon and Big Tech, and an existential commentary drowned in product placement. One critic called it “a disastrous movie retelling of H.G. Wells’ classic.” Others accused it of being “shameless tech propaganda.” Even Ice Cube’s…

Redefining Gender, One Eraser at a Time
The danger isn’t just this one policy. It’s the normalization of using administrative power to erase marginalized identities from legal recognition. Once that’s accepted, it can be applied anywhere — and to anyone. Today it’s trans students. Tomorrow it could be any group that makes those in power uncomfortable. The only qualification for being targeted…

MAGA-fying the Museum: How to Curate History Without the History
Maybe one day, years from now, there will be an exhibit about this moment. It will feature press releases about “aggressive reviews,” news clippings about political interference, and maybe — if the curators are feeling bold — a case labeled “Democracy, in Decline.” Visitors will walk past it on their way to the dinosaur hall,…

Trump Taps Heritage Foundation Economist to Run Bureau of Labor Statistics — Because What Is Math Without Ideology?
It’s easy to shrug off an appointment like this as inside-baseball politics. But the numbers the BLS produces influence interest rates, Social Security cost-of-living adjustments, wage negotiations, and how every American feels about the state of the economy. Put the wrong storyteller in charge of those numbers, and you can warp not just policy, but…

The Art of the Strategic Amnesia: Trump’s Epstein Damage Control Summit
Washington has seen its share of “nothing to see here” moments, but this week’s gathering in the West Wing might be the new gold standard. Picture it: Vice President J.D. Vance, former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi, and loyalist-turned-FBI-director Kash Patel huddled together under the genteel glow of White House sconces, plotting a strategy to

Breadlines With Ballistics: On Aid, Optics, and the Math of Looking Away
There’s a certain kind of silence that only exists in a crowd waiting for food. It’s not quiet—nothing about hunger is quiet—but it has an agreed-upon hush, a choreography of patience. Bodies stand still because moving burns calories you don’t have. Eyes scan for motion because motion means a truck, a crate, a whisper that

Purge Season at the FBI: Now Streaming in the Authoritarian Originals Category
It’s hard to keep up with the entertainment landscape these days. One week it’s “Shark Week,” the next it’s “Barbenheimer,” and now — premiering exclusively on the Federal Bureau of Investigations’ morally grey channel — we have The Purge: Loyalty Oath Edition. This season stars Kash Patel, the FBI’s current Director and apparent graduate of
