I’m also working on an article about EEAAO if you want to see the trans short film version.
This weekend, I finally checked out a movie starring an acclaimed Asian actress who may finally get her due by leading audiences through an inter-dimensional rupture in which an unlikely hero must use the skills, wisdom, and insight from each multi-verse version of herself to return to her own dimension and finally understand who she is in her own body.
But enough about The Actress, the dimension-spanning short film by Isobel Sandoval in which, well…see the above description.
As soon as you said Brewster’s Millions booted it up. Been too long since I have seen it and already enjoying it. But saving the other movies in my list.
This is an open call for violence. I’m sure he’s also got ads for Anti-Trans TestoMAN sawdust/caffeine/protein pills that will turn you into the ideal, macho 1950s man who quietly kills people after Ed Sullivan.

On the Wednesday after Thanksgiving, Deborah had an appointment with a maternal fetal medicine specialist. A third ultrasound, now at 24 weeks gestation, confirmed the earlier findings, Deborah said, and the specialist told them that the condition was incompatible with life. This doctor also gave the diagnosis its common name: Potter syndrome.
He told them that some parents choose to continue to full term; others terminate the pregnancy through surgery or by inducing preterm labor, she recalled. He said he would begin contacting health-system administrators about the new law, and stepped out of the room to give the couple privacy to mull over their options.
During an appointment in early January, Deborah said her obstetrician, after consulting other experts, told her that she had also concluded that termination at this stage would not be possible. The doctor pointed out that states like California and New York have fewer restrictions.
The Dorberts say they wondered briefly about traveling, but they have left Florida only a handful of times since Kaiden was born and were daunted by the costs. Deborah had stopped working at Publix after Kaiden was born, and Lee, 35, is only recently reemployed after losing his job during the pandemic. They felt uncertain about finding new doctors to terminate an already traumatic pregnancy. And they worry about potential legal repercussions.
Deborah didn’t pay much attention to the laws when they were enacted, never believing she would want an abortion. But that has changed.
Kids of well off people and politicians can still leave the state. Working as designed.
Sen. John Boozman of Arkansas, the top Republican on the Senate Agriculture Committee, said he worried that the increasing cost of the food stamps program would cut into lawmakers’ ability to expand the safety net for farmers.
“That’s going to really limit, I think, our ability to help the other programs,” he said.
