- Yes! In my piece for my newsletter I get into how technology (why are we all looking at our faces mediated through social media so fucking much), beauty culture's whiteness obsession, and patriarchy-induced anxiety that is shaping this issue. Personally, I love being 36. I have earned these yrs.

- Reposted by Angelica Jade BastiénHey! Press covering Trump! The statute that lets him impose tariffs at will? It EXPLICITLY excludes movies. He has no authority to do this. Not just bc of an absence of authorization, but bc the law says “you CANNOT do this.” Do NOT say “Trump has imposed movie tariffs,” bc he did not. He CANNOT.

- Reposted by Angelica Jade Bastién“Male loneliness” is kind of the perfect antifeminist complaint, because it articulates the moral logic of patriarchal entitlement very neatly: that men deserve women’s attention, company, devotion, sex, and care, and women should provide these to men even at the cost of their own wellbeing.

- Reposted by Angelica Jade Bastién‘Sinners’ is bold, ambitious, and just misses greatness. It’s a horror film that will haunt critic Angelica Jade Bastién just as much as it will keep her wondering who Ryan Coogler wants to be on the other side of ‘Creed’ and ‘Black Panther.’
