no. i am not having any of this.
michael ontkean went from working on twin peaks, probably one of the greatest television shows of all time, to starring as sad dad to ellen page in the made-for-tv movie ghost cat
yes, ghost cat
what an excellent career trajectory
i always try to convince myself that i’m super into fiction but YOU KNOW WHAT, i’m not. there, i said it. i mean, i like some things, but by and large it is not for me.
i don’t know who let me have all of these stupid fucking books
someone should have had the foresight to curb this before it became a problem
because now it’s a huge heavy problem and i’m the laziest human alive
eriiiiiiinnnnnnnnn
this blog was made for u and me
onthesettee replied to your post: i have a bunch of black history stuff that i know…
Interested, too, but aglock obvs. gets first dibs.
i can only speak for myself but i get the feeling ag wouldnt mind them going to someone who is, y’know, black. i’m still going through and i have a lot more to do but i’ll send u a message with the titles when i’m all done culling stuff~
i have a bunch of black history stuff that i know i’m never going to read, would anyone be interested in it? just pay shipping etc, media mail is real cheap
i’ve been an avid collector my whole dumb life, but i think i’m finally ready to get rid of some of these books. i think i’ve been laboring under the idea that they’re meaningful just by their very nature, but no, books aren’t unless they mean something to you. and i don’t need a bunch of stuff lying around that means fuck all.
85% of my film books are misplaced somewhere in my haus and it’s really stressin me out.
i found this which is very comprehensive and relevant to my interests but considering it’s from 1997 it’s really not very useful.
US specific film data for 2012
In 2012, the ethnic composition of frequent moviegoers looks much the same as in 2011, with Hispanics oversampling as frequent moviegoers relative to their proportion of the population. The 2012 increase in frequent moviegoers skews more significantly towards Caucasians and Hispanics than other ethnicities.
The gender composition of moviegoers (people who went to a movie at the cinema at least once in the year) in 2012 skewed slightly more towards women than the overall population (and up 1 percentage point versus 2011), while tickets sold continued to be split evenly among both genders.
Although Caucasians make up the majority of the population and moviegoers (140 million), they represent a smaller share of 2012 ticket sales (56%). Hispanics are more likely than any other ethnic group to go to movies, and purchased more tickets in 2012 compared to 2011.
there’s a lot more data here (be warned, it’s a pdf file) but i picked the three that were most interesting to me
still hunting for demographic info on horror films. i know i’ve read what i’m looking for before, i just have to find it from the depths of the internet.
nybg:
I can’t remember the last time I saw an advertisement for a funeral home in the U.S.—with any luck, few have to dwell on these considerations often. But if the undertaker set were to take a shot at public market competition, I can think of worse memento moris to confront than this “living” skeleton composed entirely of pressed flowers.
The work was commissioned by Nishinohon Tenrei of Japan, a funeral home that, from what I gather, sought to break the monochromatic mold of the average funeral concept. The resulting advertisement is crookedly beautiful, if a little forward. Click through for a few more close-ups. —MN
