The brand, known for ther cost-effective drugstore offerings just launched an ad featuring RuPaul’s Drag Race legend Heidi N Closet and stand-up comedian and the Annabelle doll’s new owner, Matt Rife. Now, fans are dropping their products based on the stunning choice to include the controversial crowd-work comic in an ad targeted at a primarily women/femme audience. Notably, in his 2023 Netflix special Natural Selection, Rife made a “joke” at the expense of a hostess with a black eye. “If she could cook, she wouldn’t have that black eye,” he… Read more »
It seems like every major musical artist has found box-office success in the form of an Oscar-worthy biopic. From Timothée Chalamet starring in A Complete Unknown as Bob Dylan to Rami Malek’s portrayal of Queen‘s Freddie Mercury in Bohemian Rhapsody, there are many rock star movies you need to add to your watchlist.

The horror genre has certainly made a mainstream comeback in recent years with the box office success of films like Hereditary, Nope, A Quiet Place, and M3GAN. A genre that ebbs and flows in popularity with the public, dominating decade’s like the 70’s and 80’s but falling short in the 90’s and early 2000’s, we are lucky to see it widely favored again. In the last five years or so, we have seen many new films hit theatres that are extremely unique and break through the mold of common horror expectations like Barbarian or X. We have also seen a… Read more »

Say Anything are back together and have released a brand new track, “Psyche!” Today. They are a band that have always done things differently than everyone else. They stuck out like a sore thumb in the scene since their inception in a beautifully unique and transparently broken way. Max Bemis is a genius to say the least and you won’t find another project quite like his. Hell, their first full-length album, …Is A Real Boy, was intended to be a performative musical that transformed into a two-part melodic odyssey. With spoken word interludes, triumphant and drastic sonic changes within each… Read more »
